Updated at 2025-07-15

The AFFCatalog platform respects the privacy of users and stakeholders. This Privacy Policy describes what data we collect, how and on what grounds we process it, including when posting information from open sources.

1. General Provisions

AFFCatalog is an information platform providing a catalog of affiliate programs, CPA networks, affiliate teams, personalities, and services in the field of iGaming. We aim to simplify the search and analysis of market players, increase industry transparency, and create a helpful reference resource for the professional community.

The information published on the platform is collected exclusively from open and legally available sources such as:

  • official websites of companies and brands;
  • government registries and databases;
  • public profiles in social media;
  • marketing, informational, and press materials posted in the open-access space.

We do not misrepresent the collected information and do not publish materials marked directly as confidential or restricted for distribution. AFFCatalog does not use data for commercial purposes, such as selling information, paid access, or hidden advertising. The purpose of posting data is purely for reference, analytical, and research purposes.

We respect the rights of copyright holders and data subjects. If you believe that the posted information violates your rights, you can request its correction or deletion (see section 9 of this Policy).

2. Legal grounds for processing (including personal data)

The AFFCatalog platform processes information, including specific aspects of personal data, solely on lawful grounds and under applicable law, including but not limited to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), as well as other international and national regulations.

The primary legal basis for processing is the legitimate interest of the platform, which includes:

  • creating an open directory of companies, affiliate programs, teams, professionals, and services in the iGaming niche;
  • ensuring transparency and accessibility of market information for the professional community;
  • analytical and reference use of information from publicly available sources.

In individual cases, if the user voluntarily provides us with information (for example, through feedback forms), the explicit consent of the data subject may serve as an additional basis.

We do not collect or process information if it:

  • violates the principles of lawfulness and good faith;
  • relates to sensitive categories of data (race, political opinions, health, etc.);
  • is obtained from sources that are clearly restricted or contain a publication ban.

We adhere to the following principles when processing information:
