This Privacy Policy explains how Canada Best Betting Sites collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you visit:

https://canadabestbettingsites.com/

Canada Best Betting Sites is an editorial and affiliate website that researches and compares online betting sites available to Canadian users.

Our content covers topics such as sportsbook licensing, sports markets, bonuses, wagering requirements, payment methods, cryptocurrency support, withdrawal times, and responsible gambling.

We do not operate a sportsbook, accept bets, hold gambling balances, process deposits, or control third-party betting accounts.

What This Policy Covers

This policy applies to information processed through Canada Best Betting Sites, including information generated when you:

  • Visit or browse the website
  • Read a review or comparison
  • Follow an outbound affiliate link
  • Submit our contact form
  • Send us an email
  • Interact with cookies, analytics, advertising, or security tools

It does not govern the privacy practices of betting operators, payment providers, affiliate networks, advertisers, or other external websites.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

You do not need to create an account or provide your name to read our website.

When you contact us, you may provide:

  • Your name, if you choose to include it
  • Your email address
  • The subject of your enquiry
  • The contents of your message
  • Any documents or details you voluntarily send

Please do not send passwords, banking credentials, copies of identification documents, full payment-card numbers, betting-account login details, or other sensitive information.

We do not intentionally request health information, biometric information, government identification numbers, precise financial credentials, or other sensitive categories through the contact form.

Browsing and Device Information

Our website and its service providers may automatically process limited technical information, including:

  • Internet Protocol address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type
  • Operating system
  • Approximate location derived from an IP address
  • Language settings
  • Referring page or website
  • Pages viewed
  • Time and date of visits
  • Time spent on pages

  • Cookie or device identifiers
  • General interaction and performance data
  • Error, security, and server-log information

This information helps us operate the website, understand how content is used, detect abuse, and improve performance.

Affiliate Information

Some outbound links contain tracking parameters.

When you click an affiliate link, the link may include:

  • A campaign identifier
  • An affiliate identifier
  • A click ID
  • A referring-page value
  • A timestamp
  • A device or cookie identifier
  • UTM parameters

These values help determine that a visitor reached a third-party operator through our website.

The third-party operator or affiliate network may then report whether a qualifying action occurred, such as registration or a deposit. We generally do not need to receive your sportsbook password, full payment details, or full betting history for affiliate attribution.

How We Use Information

We may use information to:

  • Operate and maintain the website
  • Display articles, comparisons, and reviews
  • Respond to questions and feedback
  • Correct inaccurate or outdated content
  • Understand which pages are useful
  • Measure website traffic and engagement
  • Record outbound affiliate referrals
  • Calculate or verify affiliate commissions
  • Display, personalize, or limit advertising
  • Detect spam, fraud, malicious traffic, and security threats
  • Diagnose technical problems
  • Protect our rights, users, and systems
  • Maintain records required for business or legal purposes
  • Comply with valid legal requests

We do not use contact-form messages to open betting accounts or place bets on your behalf.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small files placed on a browser or device. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, and tracking parameters.

We may use these technologies for:

Essential Functions

These technologies support website security, basic functionality, fraud prevention, load balancing, and preference storage.

Analytics

Analytics technologies help us understand information such as page views, traffic sources, session length, device type, and general site performance.

Advertising

Advertising technologies may help deliver ads, measure impressions, limit how often an ad is displayed, and assess campaign performance.

Affiliate Attribution

Affiliate cookies and link parameters help a third-party network or operator determine whether a visit or qualifying action originated from Canada Best Betting Sites.

Affiliate tracking periods and rules are controlled by the relevant third party.

Managing Cookies

You can usually block, remove, or limit cookies through your browser settings.

Blocking cookies may affect website functionality and may prevent affiliate referrals or preferences from being recorded correctly.

Where a cookie-management or consent tool is displayed on our website, you can use it to adjust the available non-essential cookie categories.

Browser privacy signals and technical opt-out signals may also be recognized where legally required and technically feasible.

Analytics, Advertising, and Affiliate Partners

We may work with categories of third parties such as:

  • Website hosting providers
  • Content delivery and performance providers
  • Analytics services
  • Security and anti-spam providers
  • Advertising networks
  • Affiliate networks
  • Online betting operators
  • Technical support providers

We do not name a specific vendor unless we have confirmed that the service is active on the website.

These providers may process information under their own terms and privacy policies. External betting sites may collect considerably more information than we do, including identity verification documents, payment information, account activity, and location data.

Review the operator’s privacy policy before registering or depositing.

Affiliate Disclosure

Canada Best Betting Sites may earn compensation when you click certain links or complete a qualifying action on a third-party website.

An affiliate link may contain an identifier that allows the operator or network to attribute the referral to us.

This compensation supports our website and does not normally increase the price paid by the user.

Affiliate relationships do not give us access to your sportsbook password or authority over your account, balance, bonus, verification, bets, or withdrawal requests.

When We Share Information

We may disclose limited information to:

Service Providers

Service providers may process information for hosting, analytics, website security, spam prevention, technical support, advertising, or affiliate measurement.

They receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform the relevant service.

Affiliate and Advertising Partners

When you interact with an affiliate or advertising link, identifiers may be shared with the relevant network, advertiser, or operator for referral and performance measurement.

Legal and Safety Purposes

We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to:

  • Comply with a law, court order, or valid legal process
  • Respond to an authorized regulatory request
  • Investigate fraud, abuse, or security incidents
  • Protect the rights or safety of users or other parties
  • Establish, exercise, or defend legal claims

Business Changes

Information may be transferred as part of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, or sale of website assets, subject to applicable privacy requirements.

Do We Sell Personal Information?

We do not sell contact details or personal information for money.

Some advertising or affiliate activities may be treated as disclosure, sharing, or targeted advertising under certain privacy laws. Where applicable, we will provide reasonable methods for exercising relevant consent or opt-out rights.

Canadian Privacy Rights

Canadian privacy law may give individuals rights concerning personal information held by private-sector organizations.

Depending on the law that applies, you may be able to:

  • Ask whether we hold personal information about you
  • Request access to that information
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate information
  • Withdraw consent to certain uses, subject to legal or contractual restrictions
  • Ask how information has been used or disclosed
  • Raise a concern about our privacy practices
  • Request deletion where there is no legal or legitimate reason to retain the information

PIPEDA establishes principles covering accountability, consent, limiting collection, limiting use and retention, safeguards, openness, access, and the ability to challenge compliance. Some provinces also have their own private-sector privacy laws.

To submit a request, email:

[email protected]

Use the subject line Privacy Request.

We may ask for limited information to confirm your identity and locate the relevant records. We will not request sportsbook passwords or full payment-card information for this purpose.

International Processing

Some providers may process or store information outside your province or outside Canada.

When information is processed in another jurisdiction, it may be subject to the laws and lawful access requirements of that jurisdiction.

We take reasonable steps to select appropriate service providers and limit the information processed for our purposes.

Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including operational, security, accounting, dispute-resolution, and legal purposes.

Typical retention periods may include:

  • Contact messages: up to 24 months after the last relevant communication
  • Analytics information: up to 24 months
  • Security and server logs: generally up to 12 months
  • Affiliate and accounting records: for the period required to verify payments and meet legal or tax obligations
  • Consent or privacy-request records: for as long as reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance

We may delete or anonymize information earlier when it is no longer required.

Information Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information.

These measures may include:

  • HTTPS encryption
  • Access restrictions
  • Strong authentication controls
  • Software and plugin updates
  • Backups
  • Spam and malware protection
  • Monitoring for unusual activity
  • Limiting access to people who need the information

Canadian privacy guidance requires organizations to take reasonable steps to safeguard personal information against risks such as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, modification, or destruction.

No website or transmission method is completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security.

Children and Underage Users

Canada Best Betting Sites is not intended for children or anyone below the legal gambling age in their province or territory.

Legal gambling age varies across Canada. Users must meet the age requirement that applies where they live and where the relevant gambling service is offered.

Minors should not use betting platforms, follow promotional gambling offers, or submit personal information through our website.

If you believe a minor has submitted personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

Third-Party Websites

Our articles contain links to betting operators and other external resources.

We do not control those websites and are not responsible for:

  • Their privacy practices
  • Account-registration requirements
  • Identity verification
  • Payment processing
  • Geolocation checks
  • Cookies and tracking
  • Security procedures
  • Data retention
  • Marketing communications

Read the privacy policy and terms of each external website before providing information.

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the website, technology, business practices, or applicable requirements.

When we make changes, we will post the revised version here and update the “Last updated” date.

Material changes may also be highlighted through an additional notice where appropriate.
