Unbound (“Unbound,” “we,” “us”) operates the website https://unbound.com/ (the “Site”). We publish educational content and comparisons to help users understand crypto casinos, digital gambling with cryptocurrency, and safety concepts like licensing checks, encryption, and provably fair systems.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We’re an editorial and affiliate publisher—we don’t operate casinos, accept bets, process withdrawals, or provide customer support on behalf of gambling operators.
What we collect
We keep data collection lightweight and focused on running the site responsibly.
Information you provide to us
If you contact us, we may collect the information you choose to share (for example, your name, email address, and message). You can write anonymously if you prefer—just don’t include identifying details.
Information collected automatically
When you browse the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect:
-
Browsing and device data such as IP address, pages viewed, time on page, referring/exit pages, approximate location (city/region), browser type, device/OS, and language settings
-
Identifiers like cookie IDs and similar device identifiers
-
Performance and security data such as error logs and basic anti-abuse signals
Cookies and tracking used for analytics, ads, and affiliate attribution
We use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to:
-
Measure traffic and understand which content is helpful
-
Serve and measure advertising (where enabled)
-
Track affiliate link activity (for example, UTMs, click IDs, and link-out events) so a partner can attribute a commission if you visit an operator through our links
Sensitive information
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information (such as government IDs, precise geolocation, or health/biometric data). Please don’t send sensitive information to us through email or forms.
How we use information
We use collected information to:
-
Operate and maintain the Site
-
Improve content quality (for example, clarifying wallet setup steps, explaining provably fair checks, or updating platform comparisons)
-
Measure performance and understand what users find useful
-
Prevent fraud and abuse, troubleshoot errors, and secure the Site
-
Attribute affiliate commissions and measure partner link performance
-
Limit repetitive ads and improve ad relevance where ads are shown
-
Respond to messages when you contact us
Cookies and tracking
Cookies are small files stored by your browser. Pixels and similar tags help measure interactions (like page views or link clicks). Affiliate tracking parameters (such as UTMs or click IDs) help a partner recognize that you came from our Site.
Your choices
You can manage cookies in several ways:
-
Use your browser settings to block or delete cookies
-
Use privacy-focused browser modes or extensions
-
Adjust device-level ad settings where available
“Do Not Sell or Share” and opt-out
If you are in the United States, you can opt out of certain sharing used for cross-context behavioral advertising (often called “targeted advertising”). To make a request, email [email protected] with the subject line “Do Not Sell or Share”.
We also honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as an opt-out of “sale/share” where feasible.
Advertising, analytics, and affiliates
Analytics
We use analytics tools to understand site traffic and improve content. These tools may use cookies or similar technologies to provide aggregated reporting.
Advertising
We may display ads on the Site. Ad partners may use cookies/pixels to measure ad performance, manage frequency, and deliver ads that are more relevant.
Affiliate links
Some outbound links are affiliate links. That means we may earn a commission if you click through and take an action on a third-party site. Affiliate links may include identifiers so partners can attribute that commission. This does not increase the price you pay.
Sharing of information
We may share information with:
-
Service providers who help operate the Site (hosting, security, analytics, and technical support)
-
Advertising and affiliate partners for measurement, attribution, and ad delivery
-
Legal or compliance authorities if required by law, or to protect rights and safety
We do not “sell” personal information for money. However, under some state privacy laws, certain data disclosures for advertising measurement may be considered “sharing” (or “sale/share”)—and you can opt out as described above.
Your privacy rights in US states
Depending on your state, you may have rights to:
-
Access and receive details about the personal information we collect
-
Delete personal information (with certain exceptions)
-
Correct inaccurate personal information

Receive non-discriminatory treatment for exercising your rights

Right to know/access (categories and specific pieces of information)
-
Right to delete
-
Right to correct
-
Right to opt out of sale/share (including for cross-context behavioral advertising)

We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes that would require a “limit use of sensitive PI” request.

-
Server/security logs are typically retained up to 12 months
-
Contact emails/messages are retained as needed to respond and maintain records
We use reasonable safeguards such as HTTPS, access controls, and routine maintenance. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, and we can’t guarantee absolute security.
Children’s privacy
The Site is intended for adults 21+ (or the legal gambling age in your location). We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 21. If you believe a minor has provided information, contact [email protected] and we will address it.
