General provisions
Stickandbow is an independent editorial website. Visiting the pages, following in-page links, opening the menu or using the clearance sketch may result in limited technical processing that is typical of any website. This policy applies to the Stickandbow pages themselves. It does not describe how any third-party operator mentioned in a briefing handles player accounts, deposits or identity checks.
If you do not agree with this policy, you should not use the site.
What data may be processed
Stickandbow does not ask you to create an account on this site and does not publish a public form that collects name, address or payment details. Information that may still be processed includes:
- technical data generated by your browser or device when a page is requested;
- information stored in cookies or similar technologies, where those are used;
- the content of a message you choose to send through any contact channel that is actually provided on the website;
- basic server logs needed to deliver pages and keep the service stable.
Please do not include government identification numbers, full payment credentials or other sensitive details in a message to this site. This briefing does not operate gambling accounts and has no reason to collect that information.
Technical data
When your device requests a page, the hosting environment may record items such as date and time of the request, a truncated or full Internet Protocol address, browser type, language preference, referring address and the pages viewed. This information is used to serve the site, diagnose faults and understand aggregate traffic. It is not used on this site to build a marketing profile of an individual reader.
Cookies
The site may use cookies or local storage that are strictly necessary for security, load balancing or remembering a short-lived interface state, such as whether a menu is open. If analytics or similar measurement tools are later enabled, they may set additional cookies. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the pages display.
Purposes of processing
Information is processed only as needed to:
- display the briefing and related pages;
- maintain security and availability;
- understand, in aggregate, which pages are read;
- respond to a request you initiate through an on-site channel;
- meet legal obligations that may apply to the publisher of a website used by people in Canada.
Legal bases
Depending on the activity, processing may rest on the operation of a requested information society service, on a legitimate interest in keeping the site secure and understandable, on consent where a non-essential cookie or similar tool is used, or on a duty to retain records where the law requires it. Canadian privacy law is not uniform across every organization and every province. This policy does not assert that Stickandbow is certified under any particular federal or provincial act.
Third-party services
Pages may load resources from content delivery networks in order to serve typefaces or other front-end assets. Those providers process technical data according to their own terms. Links inside a briefing may point to other websites, including an operator discussed in the review. Stickandbow does not control the privacy practices of those destinations. Review their notices before you submit personal information to them.
Data storage and protection
Technical logs and any correspondence you send are kept only as long as needed for the purposes above, then deleted or archived in a form that is no longer used for day-to-day operations. Reasonable organizational and technical measures are used to limit access to systems that host this site. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, and this policy does not promise that unauthorized access is impossible.
User rights
Readers in Canada may have rights to request access to personal information an organization holds about them, to ask for correction of inaccurate information, to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, and to complain to a relevant privacy commissioner. The exact scope of those rights depends on which rules apply to a given organization and a given activity. To make a request that relates to Stickandbow, use the contact channels available on this website. You may be asked for enough information to locate the relevant records and to confirm that the request is yours.
Age restrictions
This site discusses gambling products and is intended for adults. Do not use it if you are under the legal gambling age in your province or territory in Canada (18 or 19, depending on the jurisdiction). Stickandbow does not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a minor has submitted information through an on-site channel, use those same channels so that the information can be removed where it is still held.
Policy changes
This policy may be updated when the site’s technical setup or editorial practices change. The updated text will be published on this page. Continued use of the site after a change is published means you should read the current version. The canonical address for this document is https://stickandbow.com/privacy-policy.html.
How to contact us about privacy
There is no separate postal address, telephone number or registration number published for privacy requests. Use the contact channels provided on this website where they are made available, and mark the message as a privacy request. For privacy questions about a third-party operator mentioned in a briefing, contact that operator directly.
