🔒 Privacy Policy

Version of 22 January 2026

❧ Plainly put: this is a reading site. We publish reviews; you read them. No accounts exist, no forms are offered, no money changes hands and no gambling takes place here. The only personal data in the picture is the ordinary technical trail of any web visit, described honestly below.

1. The Publisher

This policy is issued by the publisher of rougeetroyale.com ("we"), an independent editorial project about British hotels and gaming venues. We are not a gambling operator and hold no gambling licence, because we conduct no gambling.

2. Data That Arises From a Visit

Visiting any page here generates the standard technical record every website receives:

IP address and the approximate area it resolves to;
device, operating system and browser details from request headers;
which pages you read, when, and which link brought you.

We deliberately collect nothing else. There is no registration, no newsletter, no comment section and no checkout.

3. What We Do With It

Three things only: keep the site running securely; read aggregate statistics to learn which reviews earn their place; and meet legal obligations should any apply. We sell nothing to anyone, and we build no individual profiles.

4. Cookies & Third-Party Tools

The site may set first-party cookies and use third-party analytics and advertising services, including Google Analytics and Google advertising products. Such vendors may use cookies to serve and measure advertising informed by your visits to this and other websites. Your controls:

delete or block cookies in your browser whenever you wish;
opt out of Google ad personalisation at adssettings.google.com;
read everything here with non-essential cookies switched off — nothing is gated.

5. Recipients

Technical data passes only to the service providers that host and measure the site, under their own published terms, and to public authorities if the law requires it. No other recipients exist.

6. Retention & Security

Logs and aggregates are held no longer than the purposes above demand, protected by HTTPS and provider-side access controls.

7. Young Readers

Our subject matter is gambling venues; our content is written for readers aged 21 and over. We do not knowingly process children's data and offer no features directed at minors.

8. Your Rights

Under the UK GDPR and comparable laws (EU GDPR, Canada's PIPEDA), you may seek access to, rectification of, or erasure of personal data, and you may complain to the ICO or your local supervisory authority. As we keep no user records, such requests will usually concern cookie identifiers — removable in your own browser in moments.

9. Amendments

We revise this page as practice or law changes; the version date above always reflects the current text.

10. Correspondence
