Scope
This policy covers the website chickenroad-ethiopia.com — an independent English-language guide to the Chicken Road crash game by InOut Games, edited from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. It applies to every page of this domain, to our contact email correspondence and to the free demo simulator hosted here.
It does not apply to casino platforms, app stores or other websites you may reach through our links. Once you leave this domain, the privacy policy of that third party governs your data. We are not a casino operator and we process no gambling transactions.
What data we collect
We keep collection to the minimum a small publisher needs:
- Contact form and email correspondence: the name, email address and message text you choose to send us, plus any attachments you add voluntarily.
- Technical data: your IP address and the approximate location derived from it (city or region level), browser type and version, operating system and device type, screen size, the pages you view, time on page, the referring page or search engine, and error logs.
- Cookies and analytics identifiers: anonymous or pseudonymous identifiers used to count visits, distinguish new from returning readers and attribute affiliate clicks.
Nothing on this site requires an account, a login or a password. If a page asks you for casino credentials, it is not ours — leave immediately.
What we do NOT collect
- No payment data: no card numbers, no bank details, no mobile-money identifiers. We accept no deposits.
- No casino account credentials — never send us a username or password for any operator.
- No gambling account balances, bet history or transaction records. We have no technical access to them.
- No national identity documents, and no special-category data such as health or religious information.
Phishing warning. “Predictor” tools, “earning apps” and fake login pages exist to harvest casino credentials. We never ask for them, and no page on this domain will ever request your operator password.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. We use three kinds:
| Type | Purpose | Can you refuse it? |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Remember that you dismissed the cookie notice, keep the site working and secure. | Only by blocking cookies in the browser |
| Analytics | Count visits, measure which guides are read and where readers stop. | Yes — browser settings or blockers |
| Affiliate tracking | Record that a click to an operator came from this site so a referral is attributed. | Yes — do not use our outgoing links |
You can delete or block cookies at any time in your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge all offer this under privacy or site-data options), or browse in a private window. Blocking analytics and affiliate cookies does not restrict your access to any of our content.
Our cookie notice appears on your first visit and links to this policy. Dismissing it stores a single necessary cookie so that the banner does not reappear on every page.
Analytics and aggregated statistics
We use web analytics to understand our audience in aggregate: how many people read the demo guide, which difficulty-mode explanations hold attention, which devices are used, which search queries bring readers to us. Reports we look at are statistical — counts, averages and trends — not profiles of individuals. Where our analytics tooling supports it, IP addresses are truncated or anonymised before storage, and we do not attempt to re-identify visitors.
Affiliate tracking
When you click an outgoing link to a casino platform, a click identifier (for example a campaign or partner parameter in the URL, plus a cookie) may be passed to that operator so the referral can be attributed to us. That identifier tells the operator which publisher sent the visit; it does not tell us who you are, and it does not give us access to your account.
From the moment the operator’s page loads, the operator’s own privacy policy applies to everything you do there — registration, verification, deposits and play. Read it before creating an account. If you prefer not to be tracked at all, do not use our links: type the brand’s address directly into your browser.
Legal basis and purposes
We process the data described above for clear purposes: to answer your messages (performance of the correspondence you initiated), to keep the site secure and functional and to measure and improve our content (our legitimate interest as a publisher), and to receive affiliate attribution (legitimate interest, plus your consent where cookie consent is required). Analytics and marketing cookies rely on the consent you give through our cookie notice, which you can withdraw by clearing cookies in your browser.
Data retention
Email correspondence is kept for as long as needed to handle your request and, where relevant, to document a correction we made to a page — normally up to 24 months, after which it is deleted. Server and error logs are rotated within a few months. Analytics data is retained in aggregated form; identifiers used for affiliate attribution expire according to the partner’s cookie lifetime, typically between 30 days and 12 months. You can ask us to delete your correspondence sooner.
Data sharing
We share data only with the service providers that make the site work: our hosting provider, our web analytics provider and affiliate partners or networks that need click data for attribution. Each receives only what is necessary for that role.
- We never sell, rent or trade personal data.
- We do not build advertising profiles of readers or share contact details with casino operators.
- We disclose data to authorities only where a valid legal obligation requires it.
Your rights
You may ask us to confirm what data we hold about you, to correct it if it is wrong, to delete it, or to stop processing it where you object to our legitimate interest. You may also ask for a copy of the correspondence you sent us. Write to [email protected] from the address you used to contact us, describe the request in one or two sentences, and we will act on it — there is no charge. For cookie-based data, the fastest route is to clear cookies for this domain in your browser.
Security measures
The site is served over HTTPS, access to the content management and analytics accounts is restricted to the small editorial team and protected by strong, unique passwords and two-factor authentication, and software is kept updated. Email is stored with a reputable provider. No system is perfectly secure, so please do not send us sensitive information you would not want stored in an inbox — and never send financial details or casino credentials.
Children’s privacy
This site is written for adults. Real-money content follows the 21+ reference minimum age for betting in Ethiopia (InOut rates the game itself 18+), and the site is not intended for minors. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a minor has sent us personal data, contact us and we will delete it. Parents can use device-level content filters and keep payment methods away from shared phones — practical steps are listed on our responsible gaming page.
International transfers
Our hosting, analytics and affiliate partners may process data on servers outside Ethiopia, including in Europe. Where that happens we rely on providers that offer contractual data-protection commitments and appropriate safeguards, and we limit the data sent to what the service needs.
Changes to this policy
If we change tooling, partners or the data we collect, we will update this page and revise the date shown at the top. Material changes will be highlighted in our cookie notice. The version published here is always the one in force.
Contact
Privacy questions, data requests and complaints: [email protected]. We respond within two business days. Our editorial team is based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; other ways to reach us are on the contact page, and the rules of using the site are set out in our terms and conditions.
Independence & affiliate disclosure. chickenroad-ethiopia.com is an independent guide and review site — not InOut Games and not a casino operator. Some outgoing links are affiliate links that may earn us a commission at no cost to you; this never affects our editorial content or the facts we publish. Nothing here is legal, tax or financial advice. Gambling can be addictive. Play responsibly. 21+.
