Privacy policy
The short version. PayoutMalta sets no cookies, runs no analytics and asks you for nothing. You can read every page without an account, a form or a newsletter. Your data reaches us only if you email us, and leaving the site through a casino link hands you to that casino’s own privacy policy.
Who is responsible for your data
PayoutMalta is an independent publication edited by Natalia K. from Sliema, Malta. She is the data controller for this website under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Malta’s Data Protection Act (Cap. 586). Any privacy question or request goes to natalia@payoutmalta.com.
What is collected, and why
Visiting a page. The site is a set of static pages served by Cloudflare Pages, so there is no server, database or visitor log of our own. To deliver a page and protect the site from abuse, Cloudflare processes your IP address, browser type and the address requested, as our hosting provider and under its own privacy policy. Cloudflare also asks browsers to report failed connections (network error logging), which it uses to keep the network running. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in running a secure website (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)).
Analytics. None. No Google Analytics, no tracking pixels, no heatmaps and no advertising scripts. We never build a profile of what you read.
Fonts and images. Everything is served from payoutmalta.com itself, so loading a page sends no request to a font service or image host.
Emails you send us. A correction, a payout report or a question arrives with your email address, your name if you give one, and whatever screenshots you attach. We use it only to reply and to correct the page in question, and we delete it once that is done. A report is never published with your identity attached unless you ask for that. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in keeping published figures accurate (Art. 6(1)(f)), or your request itself when you write in about your own data (Art. 6(1)(c) together with Arts. 15–22).
We never ask for, and never see, your casino account, balance, payment details or identity documents.
Cookies and browser storage
This site sets no cookies. The only thing stored in your browser is a single
sessionStorage flag (stickycta-dismissed) that remembers you closed the comparison bar at
the bottom of the screen. It contains no identifier, never leaves your device and is erased
when you close the tab. Because it is strictly necessary for a feature you used, no consent
banner applies.
Casino links and affiliate tracking
PayoutMalta is funded by affiliate commission, as set out in the affiliate disclosure. A Visit button takes you to the casino or to its affiliate network’s tracking address (Income Access, for example), and that third-party site may set its own cookies to record that you arrived from us. From that moment, the operator’s privacy policy governs your data, not this one. Operators report referrals back to us as statistics, such as how many accounts were opened through our links. They do not give us your name, contact details or documents, and nothing on this site can connect a referral to you.
Where the data goes
The only processors involved are Cloudflare, Inc. for hosting and delivery, and our email provider for the mailbox above. Cloudflare may process data outside the European Economic Area. It does so under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses. We sell no data, share none with operators and run no advertising networks.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you can ask for access to the personal data we hold about you, for its correction or erasure, for processing to be restricted, for a portable copy, or object to processing based on legitimate interest. Write to natalia@payoutmalta.com. We answer within one month, as the law requires, and may ask you to confirm the request comes from the email address concerned.
You can also complain to Malta’s supervisory authority, the Information and Data Protection Commissioner.
Children
The site is written for adults aged 18 and over and is not directed at anyone younger. We do not knowingly hold data about minors. If you believe a minor has emailed us, write in and the message will be deleted.
Changes to this policy
When what the site collects changes, this page changes with it, and the date at the top moves to match.
