Privacy Policy

Introduction

This privacy policy sets out the basis on which we process personal data through wolfgold.ie. We put it together as a clear reference for anyone visiting our site. Our project documents slot mechanics as a side activity. Three of us track details during spare time. We meet weekly in a shared office space in Meath Ireland to combine log files and check hit-frequency notes.

The policy took effect on March 31 2026. It covers data practices across the site. We stick to Irish and EU data rules including GDPR. As the data controller we decide how and why data gets processed here. Contact us at [email protected] with questions.

Our site focuses on informational content. No gambling takes place. We log observations from slots like Wolf gold for research purposes only. Visitors find breakdowns of mechanics and frequencies without any interactive play.

Data We Collect

We gather limited data to run the site and improve content. Automatic collection happens through server logs. This includes IP addresses browser types operating systems and pages viewed. Timestamps show when visits occur. Referrer URLs note where users come from. These logs help us understand traffic patterns.

No names or emails get picked up automatically. User-submitted data comes only through the contact form. There you provide name email and message. We use that solely to reply to inquiries. No other forms exist on the site.

We do not collect sensitive data such as health financial or location details beyond basic IP. No payment info ever enters our systems. Our hobbyist setup keeps things simple. Data stays tied to research logs without personal identifiers where possible.

For analytics we use basic server-side logging. No external trackers run. This avoids sending data to third parties. Logs get reviewed monthly during team meetings in Meath.

How We Use Data

Collected data supports site operation. Server logs diagnose technical issues. They reveal peak usage times and error rates. We adjust hosting based on that.

Traffic patterns guide content updates. High views on certain slot pages prompt deeper analysis. Contact form responses shape future posts. A question about payout structures might lead to a new section.

We process data under legitimate interests. Site security counts as one. Preventing abuse fits there too. Contact replies rely on consent given by submission.

No data fuels marketing. Our project lacks ads or promotions. Research remains the focus. Logs merge with manual notes on slot behavior without user profiling.

Sharing Data

We share no personal data with third parties. Server logs stay internal. Contact details go only to team members handling responses.

No service providers access raw logs. Hosting occurs on EU-based servers. Any maintenance follows strict access controls.

Legal requests form the only exception. Authorities in Ireland or EU can compel disclosure. We comply only with valid orders. Even then we notify users unless prohibited.

No sales or trades happen. Our non-commercial status rules that out. Data serves the project alone.

Cookies and Similar Tech

The site uses few cookies. Essential ones handle session management. They track if a user stays logged into admin areas but public pages need none.

No analytics cookies track across sites. No advertising cookies exist. Browser settings control essentials if desired.

We set a session cookie for basic function. It expires on browser close. No persistent storage occurs.

Local storage avoids for public areas. Content loads statically where possible. This minimizes tracking risks.

Data Storage and Security

Data resides on secure EU servers. Encryption protects transit. Access limits to named team members.

Logs rotate after 12 months. Older ones delete automatically. Contact records keep for 2 years post-reply then purge.

Physical security covers our Meath office space. Laptops use full-disk encryption. Backups encrypt too.

Risks exist in any system. We assess them regularly. Updates patch vulnerabilities promptly.

Your Rights Under GDPR

EU visitors hold standard rights. Access requests let you see held data. We reply within one month.

Rectification corrects inaccuracies. Erasure removes data where bases lack support. Objection stops processing under legitimate interests.

Portability provides data in structured format. Restriction halts use during disputes. Withdrawal revokes consent anytime.

Make requests to [email protected]. Provide enough detail for identification. No fee applies unless requests prove excessive.

Complaints and Oversight

Unsatisfied with our handling? Lodge complaints with the Data Protection Commission in Ireland. Their site lists contact options.

We aim to resolve issues directly first. Reply to our email explains next steps.

Oversight falls to Irish authorities given our base. EU cross-border rules do not apply due to small scale.

Changes to This Policy

Updates occur as needed. Major changes post here with notice. Minor tweaks take effect immediately.

Check back periodically. Last update shows at top. Email alerts go to subscribers if we add that.

Continued use signals acceptance of revisions.
