Last updated: April 2026.
This privacy policy applies to coldbet-ca.com. We are an independent review website. We do not operate a casino, sportsbook or any gambling service. We do not accept deposits, process payments, hold customer funds or maintain player accounts. If you play at Coldbet, a separate privacy policy applies between you and the operator — that policy is published on the official Coldbet website.
What data we collect
coldbet-ca.com is an informational site. We do not require registration, do not offer accounts, and do not ask for personal information to read any content. The data collected through normal site operation is limited to what follows.
Server logs
Like virtually all websites, our hosting infrastructure automatically records technical information each time a page is requested. This includes your IP address, the page requested, the timestamp of the request, the referring page if any, and your browser's user agent string. These logs are retained for security and operational purposes and are rotated out of active storage after a standard retention period.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies. None of them are used for advertising personalization from our side. The cookie categories in use are:
- Essential cookies — required for basic site function such as keeping the mobile menu state consistent between pages. No tracking purpose.
- Analytics cookies — if enabled, used by Google Analytics or a similar privacy-respecting analytics tool to measure aggregate traffic, pages visited and dwell time. This helps us understand which pages are useful and which need improvement. You can block these cookies in your browser settings or reject them via any cookie consent banner we display.
- Affiliate tracking cookies — when you click an outbound link to the Coldbet website, the destination may set a cookie on its own domain to track whether you were referred through our link. This cookie is set by Coldbet's affiliate provider, not by us, and is governed by Coldbet's privacy policy once set.
Analytics and performance data
Aggregate, anonymized analytics tell us things like which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors stay, and what countries or regions they browse from. We do not combine this data with any personally identifying information. We do not sell or share analytics data with third parties other than the analytics platform itself under its own terms.
What data we do not collect
Explicitly, this site does not:
- Ask for your name, email address, phone number, home address or date of birth
- Store payment card details — we have no mechanism to accept payments
- Operate a customer account system — there are no accounts to create on coldbet-ca.com
- Collect gambling activity data — we cannot see whether you deposited or bet at Coldbet
- Run retargeting campaigns that follow you around the internet after you leave
- Share data with advertising networks for cross-site behavioral profiling
Third-party links
Outbound links from this site go primarily to the official Coldbet website. Coldbet is a separate organisation with its own privacy practices. When you follow a link from coldbet-ca.com to Coldbet, you leave our site and enter Coldbet's jurisdiction. The privacy policy published on the Coldbet website governs what happens after that point. We have no access to, and no control over, any data that Coldbet collects once you register or interact with the Coldbet platform directly.
We also reference a handful of external organisations for responsible gambling support (ConnexOntario, Responsible Gambling Council, Gambling Therapy, PlaySmart). If you visit those sites, their own privacy policies apply.
Your rights under Canadian and international privacy law
Canadian visitors to this site are covered by PIPEDA (the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act) and any applicable provincial privacy statutes such as Quebec's Law 25, Alberta's PIPA and British Columbia's PIPA. European visitors are additionally covered by the GDPR. Under these frameworks, you have rights including:
- Access to the personal data we hold about you
- Correction of inaccurate data
- Erasure of data where applicable
- Objection to certain processing activities
- Portability of your data in machine-readable form
- Withdrawal of consent at any time without affecting lawful prior processing
In practice, because this site does not collect personal data from casual visitors, there is typically nothing individualized to exercise these rights against. If you believe we hold information about you and want it accessed, corrected or removed, contact us through our contact page and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
Data retention
Server logs are retained for operational and security purposes and rotated according to standard hosting retention schedules. Analytics data is retained for up to 26 months in aggregate form, consistent with default Google Analytics configurations. Cookies on your browser persist according to the expiry set by the issuing tool — browser-session cookies clear when you close your browser, persistent cookies expire after the declared duration, and you can clear any cookies at any time through your browser settings.
Changes to this policy
We review this privacy policy periodically and may update it to reflect changes in our practices, changes in the tools we use, or changes in applicable law. When material changes are made, the "last updated" date at the top of this page changes. Continued use of the site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
Contact about privacy
For any privacy-related questions, see our contact page for how to reach us. Please note again that we cannot answer questions about your Coldbet account — those must go to Coldbet's support team directly through the official website.
