This Privacy Policy explains how Golden Grid System (“we,” “us,” “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit goldengridsystem.com (the “Site”).
Golden Grid System is a USA-focused affiliate and informational website that publishes editorial content about online casinos and related topics—such as New York online casino options, bonuses, payment methods (including crypto), game types, and responsible gambling resources. We do not operate casinos, accept bets, process gambling payments, or create player accounts. Some links on our Site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you click and later sign up or make a purchase on a third-party site.
1) Who we are & what this policy covers
This policy applies to information collected through goldengridsystem.com, including when you:
- read articles (for example, guidance about New York online casinos and legal reality),
- click outbound links to casino, sweepstakes, or crypto-focused platforms,
- view ads shown on the Site,
- interact with basic site features (like navigation, embedded content, or buttons).
This policy does not cover third-party websites you may visit via our links. Those sites set their own privacy rules, and you should review their policies before sharing personal or payment information.
2) What we collect
A) Contact details
Based on your current settings:
- Newsletter: No
- Contact form: No
- Comments/UGC: No
So we generally do not collect personal contact details like your name, email address, phone number, or mailing address directly through the Site.
B) Browsing and device data (automatically collected)
When you visit the Site, we (and service providers that help run the Site) may collect:
- IP address (often used to infer approximate location such as city/state),
- pages viewed, time spent, clicks, scrolling, and link-out events,
- referring/exit pages and general traffic sources,
- device type, browser type, operating system, language settings,
- cookie IDs or similar identifiers.
C) Cookies/trackers for analytics, ads, and affiliate attribution
We use cookies and similar tracking tools (such as pixels or scripts) for:
- site analytics and performance measurement,
- advertising delivery and frequency capping,
- affiliate link tracking and commission attribution.
This can include:
- UTM parameters (source/medium/campaign tags),
- click IDs and referral IDs embedded in outbound links,
- aggregated conversion reporting from partners (for example, that a referral occurred).
D) Sensitive categories
We do not intentionally collect “sensitive” personal information (such as Social Security numbers, government ID copies, precise geolocation, health data, or biometric data). If you provide sensitive information to a casino or payment provider, that happens on their site—not ours.
3) How we use information
We use information to:
- operate, maintain, and improve the Site,
- keep the Site secure and prevent abuse/fraud,
- understand what content readers find useful (for example, pages about NY online casino options, payments, or bonus terms),
- measure traffic and engagement (what pages are visited, what links are clicked),
- deliver and measure ads,
- attribute affiliate referrals and commissions when users click links and convert,
- comply with legal obligations and protect our rights and users.
4) Cookies & tracking
What these tools do
- Cookies store small bits of data on your browser to remember preferences or identify a browser session.
- Pixels/tags help measure visits, conversions, and ad performance.
- Affiliate tracking parameters help third-party partners recognize that a visitor came from our Site.
Your controls
You can control cookies by:
- changing your browser settings to block or delete cookies,
- using “private” or “incognito” browsing modes,
- using device-level advertising controls where available.
If you block cookies, some measurement and ad features may be less accurate, and affiliate attribution may not work properly.
Global Privacy Control (GPC)
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as an opt-out of “sale/sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising where feasible.
5) Advertising, analytics & affiliates
We use common categories of tools and partners, such as:
- analytics tools (to understand traffic and site performance),
- advertising services (to display ads and measure performance),
- affiliate networks/partners (to track referrals and conversions).
We do not list specific vendors here to avoid making assumptions about your tech stack.
Affiliate disclosure: If you click an outbound link and later sign up or transact with a third-party operator, we may receive compensation. This helps fund our content and site operations and does not typically change your price.
6) Sharing of information
We may share information with:
A) Service providers
Companies that help us run the Site (hosting, analytics, security, ad tech, performance monitoring).
B) Advertising and affiliate partners
We may share or disclose identifiers and event data (like link clicks or conversions) for:
- ad delivery and reporting,
- conversion measurement,
- affiliate attribution and fraud prevention.
C) Legal or compliance requests
We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or other lawful request, or if needed to protect our rights, users, or the public.
No sale for money: We do not sell personal information for money.
Possible “sharing” under some laws: We may “share” certain data for cross-context behavioral advertising or measurement, which can be treated as “sale/share” under laws like California’s CPRA.
7) Your privacy rights (US states)
California (CPRA)
California residents may have the right to:
- know/access what personal information we collect and disclose,

Depending on your state, you may have rights to:
- access and delete personal data,

To help us verify your request, include:
- the state you live in,
- the page(s) you visited (if known),
- the approximate date/time of your visit,

8) Data retention & security

We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes described above. Typical ranges:
- analytics data: up to 24 months,
- server/security logs: up to 12 months,
- affiliate attribution data: often up to 24 months (varies by partner rules).
Security
We use reasonable safeguards such as HTTPS, access controls, and regular updates. No system is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9) Children’s privacy
This Site is intended for adults 21+ due to iGaming content. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 21. If you believe a minor provided information through our Site, contact us via the Site and we will take appropriate steps.
10) Third-party links & disclaimers
Our Site links to third-party websites (for example, casinos, sweepstakes platforms, payment services, and crypto platforms). We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their privacy policies before registering, uploading documents (KYC), or entering payment details.
11) Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page and change the “Last updated” date.
