Last Updated: November 25, 2025

Welcome to the.echonest.com (“we,” “us,” “our”). By accessing or using https://the.echonest.com/ (the “Site”), you agree to these Terms & Conditions (“Terms”). If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the “Last updated” date above and post the new Terms on this page. Continuing to use the Site after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

Who We Are & What We Do

The Site is an editorial and affiliate website focused mainly on iGaming and online casinos, including topics such as:

• NY online casinos and their current legal status

• Offshore casinos that accept New York players

• No-deposit bonuses, cashback rewards, and VIP programs

• How to sign up, verify your account, and make your first deposit

We provide information and opinions only. We do not:

• Operate an online casino or sportsbook

• Accept or handle bets, deposits, or withdrawals

• Provide legal, financial, or gambling advice tailored to your situation

You are solely responsible for any decisions you make based on our content.

Eligibility & Local Laws

Our content is intended for US users who are at least 21 years old, or older where required by local law for gambling-related content.

By using the Site, you confirm that:

• You are old enough under the laws of your jurisdiction to view gambling-related content.

• You will only use the Site where such content is lawful.

• You are not accessing the Site from a location or under conditions where it is illegal to do so.

It is your responsibility to check and comply with the gambling laws of your state or country.

Editorial Independence & Affiliate Disclosure

We may earn commissions when you click outbound links from our Site to casinos or other partners and then sign up, deposit, or take another qualifying action. For example, we might receive compensation if you claim a no-deposit bonus or cashback offer after clicking a link from one of our reviews.

This affiliate model:

• Does not change the price you pay or the odds you receive.

• Helps support our editorial work, including research on legal status, bonuses, and payment methods.

• Does not guarantee that a given offer is right for you or that you will be accepted by an operator.

We strive for honest, user-focused content and aim to clearly highlight key terms, such as wagering requirements, RTP, withdrawal times, and legal considerations.

Third-Party Sites & Offers

Our Site links to third-party websites and services, including offshore online casinos, sweepstakes platforms, and other gambling-related sites.

These third parties are responsible for their own:

• Terms & conditions and privacy policies

• KYC (know-your-customer) checks and geolocation rules

• Bonus rules, wagering requirements, and withdrawal limits

• Game libraries, RTPs, odds, and promotions

• Customer support, account closures, and dispute handling

We do not control and are not responsible for:

• The accuracy or availability of third-party sites

• Any losses, disputes, or issues arising from your use of those sites

• The legality of those services in your jurisdiction

Always read the operator’s own terms and policies before creating an account, depositing, or claiming a promotion.

Acceptable Use

When using the.echonest.com, you agree that you will not:

• Use the Site for any unlawful purpose

• Copy, scrape, or harvest content using bots or automated tools without our written permission

• Attempt to bypass security features or interfere with the proper functioning of the Site

• Infringe or misappropriate our intellectual property or that of others

We may take action (including blocking access) if we believe your use of the Site is harmful, abusive, or unlawful.

Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the content on the.echonest.com—including text, logos, design, and graphics—is owned by us or used under license. This includes original explanations of topics like no-deposit bonuses, cashback systems, RTP, and the legal status of NY online casinos.

• Reproduce, distribute, or publicly display our content without prior written permission

• Create derivative works based on our content without permission

If you send us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without restriction or obligation to you.

Disclaimers

The Site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.”

Without limiting the above:

• Our information is general in nature and may not be accurate, complete, or up to date for your specific situation. Laws and offers change frequently, especially around areas like NY online casinos, offshore regulations, and bonus rules.

• We do not promise that any particular casino, bonus, or offer will be available to you, that you will be able to create an account, or that your experience will match our descriptions.

• Nothing on the Site is legal, financial, or professional advice. You should consult your own advisors before making decisions.

We do not guarantee continuous availability of the Site, and we may change or remove content at any time.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

• We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of the Site or third-party services.

• Our total liability for any claim related to the Site or these Terms will not exceed one hundred US dollars (US $100) in aggregate.

Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on certain types of damages, so some of the above may not apply to you. In those cases, the limitation will apply to the fullest extent allowed by law.

Governing Law & Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to their jurisdiction and venue.

Changes to the Service

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time, including articles, tools, or features related to NY online casinos, bonuses, or payment guides. We are not liable to you or any third party for such changes.
