This Privacy & Cookie Policy explains what information richprize-australia.com (the “Site”) collects when you visit, how it is used, and the choices you have. It should be read together with our terms and conditions. We are an independent review site, not the RichPrize operator, so this policy covers only the data handled by this Site. Data you provide directly to the operator when you open an account with them falls under the operator’s own policy.
Who is responsible for your data
The Site is operated by the editorial team behind richprize-australia.com. For any privacy question, contact us at [email protected]. Because we do not run gambling services, we never collect account balances, betting histories, payment card numbers or identity documents. Those are handled by the operator under the operator’s own privacy policy.
What we collect
Information you give us
The only information you actively provide is what you put in an email to us. If you contact [email protected], we receive your email address and whatever you choose to write. We use it only to reply.
Information collected automatically
Like almost every website, our servers and analytics tools record standard technical data when you visit: your IP address (often truncated or anonymised by the analytics provider), browser type and version, device and operating system, the pages you view, the time and date of your visit, and the site or search that referred you. This is aggregate, statistical data used to understand which content is useful and to keep the Site secure and working.
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. We use a small number of them:
- Essential cookies — remember your cookie-consent choice so we do not ask on every page. These cannot be switched off without breaking basic function.
- Analytics cookies — set by a privacy-respecting analytics tool to count visits and measure which pages are read. They do not identify you personally.
We do not run advertising networks or behavioural ad-tracking pixels on this Site. When you first arrive, a banner lets you accept cookies; declining leaves only the essential cookie needed to remember that choice. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time — every major browser lets you do this — though some conveniences may stop working.
How we use your data
We use the limited data above to: reply to emails you send us; understand which articles are read so we can improve them; keep the Site secure and diagnose technical faults; and comply with legal obligations. We do not use it to build advertising profiles.
Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not trade it. We share data only with the service providers that make the Site work (a hosting provider and an analytics provider), and only so far as they need it to provide their service. We may disclose information if required by law, court order or a legitimate request from a public authority, or to protect the rights, safety or property of the Site or its readers.
Third-party links
The Site links to external websites, including the operator. Once you follow such a link, this policy no longer applies — the destination site handles your data under its own policy. Review the operator’s privacy policy before you share any personal or payment information with them, and see how identity data is used during verification data checks on their platform.
Data retention
Emails you send us are kept only as long as needed to deal with your enquiry and any follow-up. Aggregate analytics data is retained in statistical form. We do not keep personal data longer than we need it.
Your rights
Under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles, you can ask what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, and ask us to delete it. Because the only personal data we typically hold is an email you sent, these requests are usually simple to action. Email [email protected] and we will respond within a reasonable time. If you are unhappy with our response, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (oaic.gov.au).
Children
This Site is for adults aged 18 and over and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has contacted us, let us know and we will delete the information. See our our disclaimer for more on the Site’s intended audience.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date shows the current version. Material changes will be reflected on this page, and continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised policy. If you have any question about how your data is handled here, email [email protected] and we will respond within a reasonable time. You must be 18 or over to use this Site.
