Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026

Welcome to characterworksclub.com (the "Website"), an independent affiliate website providing information, reviews, and content relating to VegasStars casino and other online gambling services. We are not a casino operator. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).

Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information when you visit or interact with the Website:

• Contact details — your name and email address, if you contact us or subscribe to a newsletter.
• IP address — collected automatically when you access the Website for security and analytics purposes.
• Cookies and similar technologies — small data files stored on your device (see "Cookie Policy" below).
• Usage data — pages visited, time spent on pages, referring URLs, browser type, device type, and approximate geographic location.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 18. Our content relates to gambling services intended only for adults of legal gambling age in their jurisdiction.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Analytics — understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve content, structure, and performance.
• Affiliate tracking — attribute referrals to casino operators (including VegasStars casino) when you click affiliate links, which allows us to earn commissions at no additional cost to you.
• Site improvement — diagnose technical issues, prevent fraud and abuse, and enhance user experience.
• Communications — respond to enquiries or send updates where you have opted in.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Cookie Policy

The Website uses the following types of cookies:

• Essential cookies — required for the basic operation and security of the Website.
• Analytics cookies — help us measure traffic and usage patterns (e.g., via third-party analytics tools).
• Affiliate/tracking cookies — placed when you click outbound links to casino operators so referrals can be attributed to us.
• Functional cookies — remember your preferences, such as language or region settings.

Opting out: You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. You may also opt out of many third-party analytics and advertising cookies via tools such as the Network Advertising Initiative or your browser's "Do Not Track" settings. Please note that disabling cookies may affect some Website functionality, including affiliate link tracking.

Third-Party Links

The Website contains links to third-party websites, including online casinos (such as VegasStars casino) and other affiliate partners. When you click these links and leave our Website, you are subject to the privacy policies and practices of those third parties.

We do not control, and are not responsible for, the privacy practices, content, or data handling of third-party websites. Any personal information you provide directly to a casino operator or other third party is governed by their own privacy policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party site before providing your personal information or registering an account.

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or as required by law:

• Usage and analytics data — typically retained in aggregated or anonymised form for up to 26 months.
