What happens to your data on this Plinko site
There is no registration, order form, cashier or account here, so the site does not ask for your name, phone number or card details. Data still arises because browser and server exchange technical information. The simplest way to describe it is in the order a normal visit unfolds.
Step 1. You open a page
The server writes to a log your IP address, the time of the request, the page address, your browser and device type, and the site you came from. Every web server does this. The logs are used to monitor the site, find errors and repel attacks. They are kept for the limited time these tasks require and are then deleted or overwritten. Requests may pass through technical contractors: hosting and a content delivery network.
Step 2. Your browser accepts cookies
The site may use cookies and analytics counters to remember settings and to understand which pages are read, how long people spend on them and where they come from. Such services may run on third-party servers and process data under their own rules. We look at overall statistics and do not search them for individuals.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. This will not stop you reading the articles.
Step 3. You start the demo
Until you press the start button the game window is empty and your browser requests nothing from the provider. After the click the game loads from InOut Games' servers. From then on the provider receives your IP address and browser data, may set its own cookies, and processes all this under its own policy. Demo rounds take place on the provider's side and the site does not record them.
Step 4. You go to a casino
Links to licensed casinos pass through /go addresses. During such a redirect the server may record the fact of the click, and an affiliate tag may be added to the destination address so the operator knows where the reader came from. After that the casino's area of responsibility begins: registration, identification, documents, payments. The site does not receive this data. From the operator it can see only aggregated figures on referrals.
Who sees what
| Step | What data | Who receives it |
|---|---|---|
| Viewing a page | IP address, time, page address, browser, referrer | the site's server and technical contractors |
| Cookies and analytics | browser identifier, page views | the site and the statistics service, if one is connected |
| Starting the demo | IP address, browser data, in-game actions | InOut Games |
| Redirect through /go | the fact of the click, affiliate tag | the site and the casino operator |
| Registering at a casino | personal and payment data, documents | the casino operator only |
Legal basis and disclosure to others
Processing is governed by the Law of Ukraine On Personal Data Protection. Technical data is processed in a legitimate interest: the security and operation of the site. Non-essential cookies may require your consent. Data is not sold. Technical contractors may have access to it within the scope of their work, as may state bodies where the law provides for it.
If someone asks for your documents in Plinko's name
This site never asks for a passport, card number, SMS code or payment for a “withdrawal”. Fake sites and apps using the name Plinko do so routinely. If you have already handed over such details, contact your bank at once and block the card, and report the fraud to the cyber police.
What you can demand
Article 8 of the Law gives each person, as a data subject, rights including the following:
- to know where data about them comes from, who processes it and why;
- to obtain access to their data;
- to object to processing and to demand the correction or destruction of inaccurate or unlawfully processed data;
- to withdraw consent where processing was based on it;
- to have data protected from unlawful processing and accidental loss;
- to file a complaint with the competent authority or a court.
The site has no accounts, so a log entry can be tied to a specific person only through additional details: the date, approximate time of the visit and the IP address.
Where to complain
Compliance with personal data legislation is overseen by the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights. A complaint can be filed with the Commissioner or with a court.
