Privacy Policy

DingoSweeps (“we”, “us”, or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you visit our website (the “Site”).

DingoSweeps is an affiliate information website. We do not operate any sweepstakes casino, do not process payments for sweepstakes operators, and do not provide gambling or social gaming services.

If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Site.

This Privacy Policy describes our practices for information collected through the Site. Where relevant, we aim to align our approach with Australian privacy principles (including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs)).

Some information we collect may be “personal information” (information about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable).

Information We Collect

We may collect the following categories of information:

Information collected automatically

  • Device and browser information (e.g., device type, operating system, browser type).
  • IP address and approximate location derived from IP (e.g., city/state).
  • Site usage data (e.g., pages viewed, time spent, referring/exit pages, clicks).
  • Language settings and time zone.
  • Identifiers stored in cookies or similar technologies (see Section 4).

We use this information to operate the Site, understand how visitors use our content, improve performance and user experience, detect fraud/abuse, and measure the effectiveness of marketing.

Information you provide to us

  • Contact details and message content when you reach out via a contact form or email.
  • Newsletter or marketing preferences if you subscribe (e.g., email address).
  • Information you choose to submit in comments or other interactive features (if enabled).

You do not have to provide personal information to browse the Site. However, certain features (such as newsletters or contacting us) may require it.

Publicly available information

In limited situations, we may review publicly available information (for example, public social media posts) to understand feedback, investigate suspected misuse, or respond to a complaint. We do not attempt to access private accounts or content.

How we use information

  • To provide and maintain the Site and its features.
  • To respond to enquiries and provide support.
  • To send newsletters or marketing communications you request (you can unsubscribe at any time).
  • To personalise content and improve our editorial offerings.
  • To analyse usage trends, measure performance, and develop new content.
  • To detect, prevent and address technical issues, spam, fraud, or security incidents.
  • To comply with applicable legal obligations and enforce our terms.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies (such as pixels and local storage) to help the Site function, to remember preferences, and to understand how the Site is used.

Types of cookies we may use include:

  • Essential cookies: required for core site functionality and security.
  • Preference cookies: remember choices like language or region.
  • Analytics cookies: help us understand traffic and improve content (e.g., page views, click paths).
  • Advertising/measurement cookies: help measure marketing performance and limit repetitive ads (where used).

You can manage cookies in your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how the Site functions.

Affiliate links, advertising and analytics

DingoSweeps contains affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and later sign up or make an optional purchase with a third-party operator, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

Affiliate tracking typically uses cookies or similar identifiers to attribute referrals. This may mean that the third party (or their tracking provider) collects information about your visit, such as the referring page, timestamp, and a unique tracking identifier.

Analytics

We may use analytics providers (such as Google Analytics or similar services) to understand how visitors use the Site. These providers may set cookies or collect identifiers and usage data. You can often opt out using browser add-ons or controls provided by the analytics provider.

Advertising

We may work with advertising partners (for example, ad networks) to display ads. These partners may use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activity over time and across different websites in order to show ads that may be relevant to you.

Sharing and disclosures

We may share information in the following circumstances:

  • Service providers: with vendors who help us operate the Site (hosting, analytics, email delivery, security).
  • Affiliate partners and tracking providers: to attribute referrals and measure performance.
  • Legal and compliance: if required by law, regulation, legal process, or to respond to lawful requests.
  • Protection of rights: to protect our rights, property, users, and the public, including fraud prevention and security.
  • Business transfers: if we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale (information may be transferred as part of that transaction).

We do not sell personal information in the sense of providing it to third parties for their own independent marketing, except where you have explicitly requested or consented to such sharing.

Data Retention

We keep information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete it or de-identify it.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If you create an account on any third-party operator site via our links, your login credentials are handled by that operator. We do not receive or store your passwords for third-party sites.

Your choices and rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights and choices regarding your personal information, such as:

  • Opting out of marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in our emails.
  • Requesting access to personal information we hold about you (if any).
  • Requesting correction of inaccurate personal information.
  • Requesting deletion of certain information, where applicable.
  • Withdrawing consent where processing is based on consent (this will not affect processing already carried out).

To make a request, contact us using the details in Section 14. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

International transfers

Our service providers and affiliate partners may be located outside Australia. As a result, information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in other countries. We take reasonable steps to ensure that overseas recipients handle information in a manner consistent with this policy and, where applicable, Australian privacy requirements.

 

Children

The Site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

Links to third-party websites

The Site contains links to third-party websites (including sweepstakes operators) that we do not control. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We encourage you to review those policies before providing any information.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If required by law, we will provide additional notice or seek your consent.

Contact us and complaints (Australia)

If you have any questions, requests, or complaints about this Privacy Policy or how we handle personal information, please contact us via our contact page.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may also lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC). You can find information about making a privacy complaint via the OAIC website.
