What Personal Information is Collected

In general, Gambleslife (the “Site”) does not collect any personally identifiable information. However, there are certain situations where Gambleslife may require a visitor’s email address to perform a service (e.g., Newsletter subscription, Story submission, Contact form, etc.). In such cases, the email address will be explicitly requested, and the visitor will be notified. Once collected, these emails are used solely for the purpose intended by the visitor and will not be shared with any third party.

Collection and Use of Non-Personal Information

We may use cookies on or in connection with our Site to maintain information about you. A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. We use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive after you close your browser. Persistent cookies may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Site. Persistent cookies can be removed by following your web browser’s directions. A session cookie is temporary and disappears after you close your browser. When you visit our Site, our server may ask your computer for permission to use a session or persistent cookie. Our Site will then send a cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits our Site to access the cookies it has already sent to you and not the cookies sent to you by other websites. Many web browsers can be adjusted to inform you when a cookie has been sent to you and provide you with the opportunity to refuse that cookie. However, refusing a cookie may, in some cases, prevent you from using, or negatively impact the display or function of, our Site or certain areas or features of our Site.

Our servers automatically collect data about your Internet Protocol (IP) address when you visit the Site. When you request pages from our Site, our servers may log your IP address and sometimes your domain name. Our server may also record the referring page that linked you to us (e.g., another website or a search engine); the pages you visit on our Site; the website you visit after this Site; other information about the type of web browser, computer, platform, related software, and settings you are using; any search terms you have entered on this Site or a referral website; and other web usage activity and data logged by our web servers. Your IP address can also be used for moderation purposes, such as limiting the creation of multiple accounts and preventing SPAM.
