1. Who We Are
This privacy policy applies to heyspin-ie.com ("the Site", "we", "us"). The Site is an independent affiliate review website. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by HeySpin Casino or its parent company.

- Cookies: We set a single first-party cookie (
age_confirmed) to remember that you have confirmed you are 18 years of age or older. This cookie expires after 12 months. We may also use analytics cookies as described in Section 4. - Google Fonts data: This Site loads fonts from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). When your browser requests these fonts, Google receives your IP address. See Google's Privacy Policy for details.
We do not collect your name, email address, payment details or any other directly identifying personal information unless you contact us voluntarily.
