Privacy Policy
Introduction
Effective date: March 31, 2026. This privacy policy sets out the data practices for sweetbonanza.ie, an independent site run by a three-person research group. We focus on the technical aspects of RNG-based slot software. Our content covers hit rates and mechanics from extended play data logs. sweetbonanza.ie provides information only. No gambling takes place here, and we do not offer games or betting services.
The trio behind this project has roots in physics and data logging. One member handles simulations, another crunches session numbers, and the third manages the site. We share findings publicly to help others understand slot volatility. Data handling follows strict limits because our operation stays small-scale. Read on for specifics on what reaches our servers.
Visitors land here for facts on slots like Sweet bonanza. We track basics to improve content but avoid personal identifiers where possible. EU rules shape our approach since .ie points to Ireland. Questions go to [email protected].
Who Runs sweetbonanza.ie
This site comes from a loose collaboration of three individuals. No company structure exists. We connect via email and shared drives. Backgrounds include physics modeling for RNG patterns and manual data entry from test runs. Goals center on documenting payout distributions over thousands of spins.
Contact stays at [email protected] for all matters. No physical office or mailing address applies. Decisions on data use happen collectively among the group. Updates to this policy require agreement from all three.
Our decentralized model keeps overhead low. Servers run on standard hosting with basic security. Analytics pull from open-source tools to monitor performance without third-party sales.
Data Collected Automatically
Site visits trigger automatic logs. IP addresses record to spot traffic sources. Browser type, device details, and screen resolution help format pages correctly. Timestamps mark when pages load. Referrer URLs show entry points.
Page views count per session. Scroll depth and time spent gauge interest in sections. Clicks on internal links track navigation. No names or emails capture unless submitted. Geographic hints derive from IP, like country or city level, but nothing precise like street addresses.
Session IDs link actions during one visit. These expire after inactivity. Heatmaps from tools reveal where eyes focus on long research tables. Error logs catch broken links or slow loads. All this builds a picture of site health without targeting individuals.
Data You Provide Voluntarily
Contact form submissions send name, email, and message text. These reach [email protected] directly. We reply if relevant to research queries. No storage beyond email folders unless follow-up needs it.
Comment sections, if added later, would collect name, email, and text. Moderation checks for spam before posting. Newsletter signups require email only. These feed into a list for updates on new hit rate analyses.
Minimal fields keep it simple. No payment info or IDs ever requested. Shared data stays tied to the inquiry purpose.
How We Use Collected Data
Traffic logs shape content priorities. High views on volatility charts prompt more depth there. Device data ensures mobile compatibility for tables. Geographic patterns guide language or regional examples.
Contact info answers questions or sources new session data. Analytics spot popular topics like bonus buy mechanics. Session details improve load times and layout. No profiling for ads since none run here.
Research aggregates anonymized play logs. Visitor behavior informs which slots to analyze next. All uses tie back to bettering the informational resource.
Sharing and Disclosure of Data
No sales of data occur. The trio accesses logs internally. Hosting providers see server-level info for maintenance. Analytics services process aggregates without personal ties.
Legal requests compel disclosure if valid. Court orders or authorities get reviewed case-by-case. Partners absent; we handle everything solo. Email replies copy only if collaboration needed.
Public posts from comments appear on-site. No third-party lists bought or sold.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies store session state for smooth navigation. Essential ones remember menu choices across pages. Analytics cookies track unique visits over 30 days. No persistent identifiers beyond that.
Third-party cookies come from embedded charts if used, like open-source plotting libs. Opt-out options appear in browser settings. Our policy lists active cookies: session_id (expires on close), analytics_uid (30 days), preferences (1 year).
Local storage holds temporary data for interactive tables. No cross-site tracking. Fingerprinting avoided; we rely on voluntary consents for non-essentials. Clear cache resets everything.
EU banners notify on first visit. Choices save to cookies. Rejecting non-essentials limits some features like saved preferences.
Data Security Practices
Hosting uses HTTPS encryption for all traffic. Server firewalls block unauthorized access. Passwords hash with salts. Backups encrypt and store offsite.
Access limits to trio via keys. Logs rotate and purge old entries. Vulnerability scans run monthly. Updates patch software promptly.
Email uses TLS. Contact forms sanitize inputs against injections. No legacy code runs. Small scale reduces attack surface.
Data Retention Periods
Logs delete after 12 months unless needed for research. Contact emails keep 3 years or until resolved. Analytics aggregates roll up yearly.
Cookies follow stated expiries. Inactive newsletter subs remove after 2 years no opens. Public comments stay indefinitely unless deleted.
Purges automate where possible. Manual reviews clear irrelevants.
Your Data Protection Rights
EU/UK visitors hold GDPR rights. Access requests get data copies within 30 days. Rectification fixes inaccuracies. Erasure removes unnecessary holds.
Objection stops processing on legitimate interest grounds. Restriction pauses use during disputes. Portability exports machine-readable formats. Withdraw consent anytime for optional bits.
Complaints go to Irish Data Protection Commission. We confirm receipt and resolve. No automated decisions affect access. Rights exercise via [email protected] with verification.
Non-EU get similar where applicable. Transparency drives all responses.
International Data Transfers
All processing stays in EU hosting. No transfers outside EEA. Backups mirror within Ireland or Netherlands providers.
If tools shift, adequacy decisions or clauses protect. Current setup avoids this entirely.
Children's Privacy
Site targets adults interested in slot math. No kid-directed content. Parents notified if data collects accidentally. Deletion follows discovery.
Age gates absent as topics skew mature. COPPA compliance if US kids somehow involved.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
Updates post here with new effective date. Major shifts email subscribers. Check back yearly. Version history logs at bottom if needed.
Trio approves changes unanimously.
