Privacy Policy

Introduction

Effective date: 30 March 2026.

This document outlines data practices on big-bass-bonanza.nz. Our project stems from a small group in the Waikato region. Three technical hobbyists make up the team: one former database administrator plus two mathematics enthusiasts. We spend off-hours examining RNG mechanics in online slots, such as the popular Big bass bonanza.

The site serves as an informational resource. No gambling services operate here. We provide analysis and details on slot functions without facilitating play or bets. Data handling remains minimal to support site operation and our internal research.

Review applies to visitors from anywhere accessing our pages. Logs record basic access details. Contact comes via [email protected] for questions.

Types of Information Collected

Server logs capture essential details automatically. IP addresses, browser types, operating systems, and visit timestamps enter records. Referrer URLs and pages viewed also log for pattern analysis.

No direct personal identifiers collect unless provided voluntarily. Forms do not exist on the site. Comments disabled to limit data intake.

Cookies store limited session data. Essential ones handle basic functionality. Analytics cookies track aggregate usage if enabled.

User-submitted data absent entirely. Email links lead off-site. No registration or accounts required.

How We Gather Information

Collection occurs passively through web server software. Standard HTTP requests generate logs. Nginx configuration retains entries for 90 days.

Cookies deploy via JavaScript where needed. Consent banners appear for non-essential ones. Users control acceptance.

No third-party trackers embed initially. Self-hosted analytics possible later. Pixel tags or similar avoided.

Location data derives from IP if relevant. Approximate only, no geofencing active.

Purposes for Data Use

Logs diagnose technical issues. Traffic patterns inform content updates. Abuse detection prevents overloads.

Research examines access to RNG pages. Aggregate stats support math models without individual profiling.

Site improvements stem from usage insights. Popular sections receive priority.

No marketing employs data. Advertising absent from pages.

Sharing Information with Others

Data stays internal to our team. No sales or rentals occur.

Service providers access minimally if hired. Hosting in New Zealand keeps data local. Contracts require confidentiality.

Law enforcement receives info only under valid orders. No routine disclosures.

No international sharing planned. NZ-based servers suffice.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Analytics cookies count unique visits. Opt-out available via browser settings.

List current cookies: session_id (essential, 1 hour), analytics_uid (optional, 1 year).

Third-party cookies blocked by default. Content delivery networks avoided.

Do-not-track headers honored where possible.

Data Retention Periods

Server logs delete after 90 days. Research extracts anonymized summaries first.

Cookies follow expiry rules. Manual deletion encouraged.

Inactive data purges automatically. No indefinite storage.

Backups retain 30 days extra for recovery.

Security Measures in Place

HTTPS encrypts all traffic. SSL certificates renew annually.

Server firewalls block unauthorized access. Intrusion detection scans daily.

Access limited to team SSH keys. Passwords hashed with salt.

Regular updates patch vulnerabilities. Backups off-site encrypted.

As small operation, physical security relies on provider data centers in NZ.

Correction requests honored if inaccuracies found. Deletion possible for non-essential logs.
