Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-05-11

This Privacy Policy explains how PlaceBets.ai (“we”, “us”, “the Site”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information related to your use of the Site. We operate placebets.ai as a free, entertainment-only practice environment for casino-game math, sports-betting tools, and tournament schedules. No real-money wagering, deposits, or withdrawals occur on this Site.

1. Information we collect

We collect the following categories of information when you visit placebets.ai:

  • Usage and device data: pages viewed, time on page, referrer URL, country (approximated by IP), browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and similar non-identifying technical signals.
  • Cookies and similar storage: small text files placed on your device by our Site and by third-party vendors (described below). Cookies enable session continuity, analytics, and advertising functions.
  • Local storage: the virtual-chip balance for our practice games is stored in your browser’s local storage so your chips persist between visits. This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly send it (e.g., a screenshot).
  • Contact form data: if you submit a contact form, we receive your name, email, and message contents.
  • Advertising-related data: Google AdSense and other third-party ad partners may collect pseudonymous identifiers, ad interaction events, and inferred interests as described in Section 4 below.

We do not collect financial account data, wagering data, payment-card information, social-security numbers, or government-issued IDs. We do not maintain user accounts with passwords; everything on placebets.ai works without sign-up.

2. How we use information

  • To deliver, maintain, and improve the Site’s features and content.
  • To respond to support and contact-form requests you initiate.
  • To measure aggregate engagement (which pages and games are most useful).
  • To serve advertisements through Google AdSense and to allow our ad partners to measure ad effectiveness.
  • To detect and mitigate fraud, abuse, scraping, and security threats.
  • To comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests.

3. Cookies & tracking technologies

Cookies are small text files set by your browser when you visit a website. We and our third-party partners use the following cookie categories:

  • Strictly necessary cookies for session continuity and basic functionality.
  • Analytics cookies for aggregate measurement of traffic and engagement.
  • Advertising cookies set by Google AdSense and other ad-tech vendors to serve personalized ads, frequency-cap ads, and measure ad performance.

Most browsers let you control cookies through settings (block all, block third-party, clear on exit, etc.). Blocking advertising cookies will still allow the Site to function; you may see less-relevant ads.

4. Advertising & third-party vendors

PlaceBets.ai uses Google AdSense (publisher IDca-pub-7215975042937417), a service operated by Google LLC, to display advertisements on the Site. Google AdSense uses cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve ads based on prior visits to this Site and other websites across the Internet.

Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this and/or other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) together to inform, optimize, and serve ads based on a user’s past visits to placebets.ai. Additional Google policies relevant to ads on this Site:

We may also use other Google products that set or read cookies, including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Google Fonts. We may use additional advertising-technology vendors (e.g., DoubleClick / Google Ad Manager, demand-side platforms, supply-side platforms, and ad-measurement providers). A full list of third-party vendors operating on placebets.ai at any given time is exposed via the Google AdSense / IAB Transparency & Consent Framework where applicable.

You may opt out of personalized advertising network-wide via the following resources:

5. Data sharing & disclosure

We do not sell your personal information for money. Some sharing of pseudonymous identifiers and inferred-interest signals with our advertising partners may be considered “sale” or “sharing” under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and similar U.S. state laws. California residents may exercise opt-out rights by contacting us via the email address in Section 11.

We may disclose information when required by law, valid legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of users, the Site, or others. We may transfer information as part of a business reorganization, merger, or acquisition.

6. Data retention

Aggregate analytics data is typically retained 14 to 26 months. Contact-form submissions are retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond and follow up. Local-storage chip balances are stored on your device only and are erased when you clear browser data.

7. Your privacy rights (CCPA, GDPR & similar)

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

  • Know what personal information we collect, use, share, and retain.
  • Access copies of personal information we hold about you.
  • Correct inaccurate personal information.
  • Delete personal information, subject to legal exceptions.
  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for advertising purposes.
  • Withdraw consent for processing that relies on consent.
  • Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (EU/UK residents).

To exercise these rights, email us at the address in Section 11.

8. Children

The Site is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it. The Site is intended for users at least 21 years old or of legal gambling age in their jurisdiction; we do not verify age and cannot enforce this, but operate under the assumption.

9. Security

We use reasonable technical and administrative measures (TLS encryption, hosting on a reputable cloud provider, access controls) to protect information we hold. No system is perfectly secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, our practices, or third-party services. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent change.
