Privacy Policy

Welcome to the Odds Scanner Privacy Policy (the “Policy”). Odds Scanner (“we”, “us”, or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. We only collect and use your personal information as described in this Policy.

This Policy covers the personal information we process when you visit https://oddsscanner.com, including its landing pages, sub-pages, and integrated affiliate links (the “Site”), and when you use our products or services, which are mainly aimed at or related to iGaming businesses and operators.

We may also receive information about End-Users (defined below). In most cases, their identity is not shared with us and is replaced by a pseudonym, such as an assigned user ID, so we cannot identify them. In limited cases, we might be able to identify an End-User, although we do not actively seek to do so. Section 5 explains this in detail.

This Policy explains what personal information we collect through the Site and our products (including through tracking technologies), how and why we collect it, when we may disclose it, and why. It also explains how to exercise your rights over your information.

This Policy should be read together with our Terms of Use and Cookie Policy. We may update it from time to time, but never in a way that undermines your rights. We will post a notice on the Site when we make material changes. Terms in quotation marks are explained in the Glossary at the end.

This Policy is issued in accordance with applicable US privacy law.

Odds Scanner is a marketing and media technology company based in Malta. We provide marketing services to our clients, typically iGaming operators, to help them grow their business through media buying, SEO, content, and technology. We also publish sports betting information, including odds comparisons, on behalf of licensed operators. In this Policy, we refer to these clients as our “Partners”.

Please read this Policy together with any other privacy notice we may provide when collecting your information on specific occasions. This Policy supplements those notices and does not override them.

Business responsible for your information

The Site may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, and applications, whose practices may differ from ours. Clicking those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share information about you. We do not control these third parties and are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please read the privacy policy of every website or application you visit.

Odds Scanner is intended only for users aged 21 and over. The Site is not directed at minors, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has given us personal information, please contact us at [email protected]. If we learn that we have collected a minor’s information, we will promptly investigate, delete it, and, where applicable, close the account.

The personal information we collect depends on whether you are:

• a visitor to the Site;
• a User of the Site, meaning you have created an account with us; or
• a user of a Partner Site (an “End-User”).

A. Visitors to the Site

Usage data. When you visit the Site, we may temporarily store your internet service provider, IP address, referring website, the pages you visit, the date and duration of your visit, and device information (device type, operating system, screen resolution, language, country, and browser). We use this data to give you access to the Site, adapt it to your device, and analyze, develop, secure, and improve the Site and our audience reach. Wherever possible, we use this data in aggregated or de-identified form.

Cookies. A cookie is a small file stored on your browser or device. Cookies let the Site recognize returning visitors. We use them to operate the Site, understand how visitors use it, improve your experience, and for marketing. Details are in our Cookie Policy.

Contacting us. If you contact us, for example through a contact form, we may ask for your name, email, and similar details. We use this information only to answer your query.

B. Users of the Site

This applies if you create an account, in addition to the usage data and cookies above. To set up your account, we ask for: username and password, first and last name, display name, email, date of birth, contact number, country, language, and currency. We use this information to run and maintain your account and our relationship with you. Our Terms of Use apply to your account.

The Site also uses a tracking script that assigns you a random token while you browse. It lets us see when you click an affiliate link and then create an account on a Partner Site. Through it we process:

• the token (a random number) and whether you created an account;
• session information: browser, device, IP address, and approximate location;
• per page: page URL and how far you scrolled;
• per link: the Partner Site visited, the Partner’s name, and the link’s location on the Site.

We use this data to measure how well our links work, improve our links and campaigns, count the Users we send to Partner Sites, and verify sign-ups made through our links. It also feeds into the commission models agreed with our Partners. We combine this data into statistics to improve our campaigns.

C. End-Users of Partner Sites

This applies to information Partners send us about people who reached their site through our links and opened an account. In most cases, this is pseudonymized data, not personal information. The Partner’s own privacy policy explains what it collects and how it uses it, so please read it as well.

We earn a commission from a Partner when someone reaches its site through us, opens an account, and places a bet or makes a transaction. In that case, the Partner usually sends us: the End-User’s username on the Partner Site, sign-up date, deposits, turnover, and net revenue. We use this mainly to verify the commission due to us.

The Partner keeps the End-User’s direct identifiers (such as name or email) separately, so we normally cannot identify the End-User. In two limited cases, we could technically do so: when the End-User already has, or later creates, an account with us. We could then link our account data and tracking data with the Partner’s data. We do not actively seek to do this. If we do, it is for the same purposes as for Users: measuring our links and campaigns and tailoring our marketing.

Additional uses

We may also process personal information of visitors, Users, or End-Users to:

• protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property, or those of our users or third parties, including making and defending legal claims;
• audit our compliance with legal, contractual, and internal requirements;
• enforce our Terms of Use;
• prevent and investigate fraud, cyberattacks, identity theft, and other illegal or harmful activity;
• comply with the law, lawful requests, and orders from public authorities.

Aggregated data

We use aggregated data, such as statistical or demographic data, to improve the Site and for statistics and industry benchmarking. Aggregated data may come from your personal information but does not identify you, so it is not personal information. If we combine it with data that does identify you, we treat it as personal information under this Policy.

Sensitive personal information

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information (racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life or sexual orientation, political opinions, union membership, health, genetic, or biometric data). We do not collect information about criminal convictions or offenses.

We share personal information only where necessary, and only with:

• Service providers: consultants, contractors, and suppliers, such as IT, design, and hosting providers. We select them carefully, share only what each service needs, and bind them by contract to confidentiality and to process information only on our instructions.
• Advisers: auditors, contractors, or other advisers supporting our business.
• Analytics and search engine providers: that help us improve the Site, its affiliate links, and marketing campaigns.
• Buyers or successors: if we sell, transfer, or merge any part of our business or assets, the new owners may use your information as set out in this Policy.
• Authorities: government bodies, law enforcement, courts, or regulators, where required.
• Others where needed to enforce our Terms of Use or other agreements.

Whenever we share information for a specific purpose, we require the recipient to keep it secure and use it only for that purpose. We do not sell your personal information for money.

Because our business is international, your personal information may be processed outside the US, including in the EU/EEA, where our company is based. Transfers are made in line with applicable law, using appropriate contractual safeguards. Where required, we also apply extra safeguards such as encryption in transit and at rest. Contact us at [email protected] for details about the safeguards that apply to your information.

We may email you about updates to our products, legal documents, customer support, or marketing. We also use data from Partners, Users, and visitors to gain insights and show targeted advertising, as described in section 5. You can opt out of marketing at any time using the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us.

Unless this Policy states a different period, we keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes it was collected for, or to resolve disputes, establish legal defenses, carry out audits, pursue legitimate business purposes, and enforce our agreements. We may also keep information where the law requires it.

The internet is not a fully secure medium. Unencrypted communications such as email may pass through several countries before reaching us, and we cannot be responsible for unauthorized access or loss beyond our control.

We use reasonable efforts to apply appropriate policies, rules, and technical measures to protect the personal information under our control from unauthorized access, misuse, disclosure, modification, unlawful destruction, or accidental loss, taking into account the type and amount of information.

Depending on where you live, applicable US privacy law may give you the following rights over your personal information:

• Right to know and access: ask what personal information we collect, use, and share about you, and get a copy.
• Right to delete: ask us to delete your personal information, unless we must keep it by law.
• Right to correct: ask us to correct inaccurate personal information.
• Right to opt out: opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information and of targeted advertising.
• Non-discrimination: we will not treat you differently for exercising your rights.

To exercise any right, contact us at [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before responding. If we cannot fully meet your request, we will tell you why.

We may update this Policy from time to time and will change the “Last updated” date when we do. If our business, or any part of it, is sold or transferred, the information we hold may be part of the transferred assets, but it will still be used only in line with this Policy. Please review this page regularly.

• Consumer: an individual whose personal information we process.

• Processing: any operation on personal information, including collecting, recording, storing, organizing, changing, retrieving, using, disclosing, transferring, erasing, or destroying it.
• Sensitive personal information: information about racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, union membership, health, sex life or sexual orientation, and genetic or biometric data.
