Terms of Use and Privacy Policy
Welcome to our independent information platform. As the operator and sole owner of this website, we provide you with comprehensive reviews, guides and analyses about gambling. This page sets out, in two parts, the legal terms governing your use of our content, as well as the protection and processing of your personal information.
By accessing our website, viewing content or using our services, you agree to the following terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms, please stop using our website immediately.
§ 1 Scope of the Terms of Use
These Terms of Use apply to all visitors and users of our website. This includes simply viewing pages, reading articles and interacting with the information provided. By using the website, you confirm that you have read and understood these terms in full.
If you do not agree with any of the provisions of this agreement, you must leave the website immediately. We reserve the right to amend these terms at any time, effective going forward.
§ 2 Nature and Purpose of Our Platform
The content on this website is for informational and entertainment purposes only. We are not a gambling provider, do not organize casino games and do not accept deposits, bets or withdrawals at any time.
All information published on the website is not legal or financial advice and does not guarantee winnings at any time. Gambling involves financial risks and may result in losses. The site is intended only for individuals aged 18 or older, or the legal minimum age required in the applicable jurisdiction.
Each user is responsible for checking the laws and legal requirements in their country of residence before registering with external providers. Bonus offers and promotions are subject to the terms of the respective operators and may change at any time; the information on the provider's official website is always authoritative.
If you feel that playing is getting out of your control, use the available responsible gambling tools or contact specialized support organizations.
§ 3 Intellectual Property and Copyright
All content published on this website, including text, graphics, logos, images, audio and video files, as well as the platform's overall structure, is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. Ownership and exclusive rights of use remain with the website owner.
Only personal, non-commercial use of the materials available on the website is permitted. Any other use, including reproduction, distribution, making content publicly available or commercial use without prior written consent, is strictly prohibited.
If you discover copyright infringement on our pages, please notify us at support@gamblezende.de with a detailed description of the material and supporting evidence, so we can review the matter and respond promptly.
§ 4 User Conduct
When using our website, you agree to comply with applicable laws and these rules. The following actions are expressly prohibited:
- Using the website for unlawful purposes or to distribute illegal content.
- Attempting to gain unauthorized access to our servers, systems or databases.
- Automated data extraction (scraping, crawling) without our express written permission.

§ 5 Information About Partner and Affiliate Links
Our website contains links to third-party websites, including, in particular, gambling providers and online casinos. We have no control over the content, integrity, availability or privacy standards of these external websites and accept no liability for them.
Some of these outbound links are identified as affiliate links or are technically set up as such. If you follow one of these links to a partner website and register or make a deposit there, we may receive a commission from the operator. This does not result in any additional costs or disadvantages for you as a user. External providers have their own terms of service and bonus terms, which you should always review carefully before using their services.
§ 6 Disclaimer and Warranty
Our website is made available to users to the extent technically and economically feasible. We make no warranty as to the accuracy, currency, completeness or error-free nature of the information provided, particularly regarding bonuses, payment methods and provider terms.
The owner is not liable for any damages arising from the use of the website or reliance on information published on it. This includes, in particular, financial losses resulting from participation in third-party gambling, as well as actions, decisions, account suspensions or non-payment by third-party providers.
§ 7 Indemnification
The user agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the website owner from and against all claims, demands, damages or costs (including reasonable legal fees and court costs) resulting from the user's culpable breach of these Terms of Use or applicable laws.
§ 8 Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms of Use, all legal relationships based on them and any disputes are governed by the laws of Curaçao. Before initiating legal proceedings, the parties agree to try to reach an amicable resolution through our support team at support@gamblezende.de. To the extent permitted by law, the courts at the operator's registered office in Curaçao shall have jurisdiction over all disputes.
§ 9 Final Provisions
If any provision of these Terms of Use is or becomes invalid, in whole or in part, the validity of the remaining provisions will not be affected. The invalid provision will be replaced by a provision that most closely reflects its economic purpose.
We reserve the right to restrict access to certain areas of the website in the event of a breach of these terms. Changes to these terms take effect when the updated version is published on this page.
