Case summary

The player from Ireland faced issues with their casino account as they continued to receive unwanted emails despite having attempted to unsubscribe. The Complaints Team confirmed that the emails were not sent by the casino and were instead linked to third-party affiliate marketing, which the casino did not control. It was established that the player was not eligible for a refund as the casino could not be held responsible for actions taken by third parties. The case was closed as unjustified, and the player was advised to block the email addresses or create a new email to avoid further issues.

Dear Postout,

After a more detailed review I can confirm that these promotional emails are not coming from the casino team, so they shouldn’t be considered responsible. The emails include an unsubscribe option. Have you tried using it or reaching out to the sender directly? Do you have any other indication that these emails were sent by the casino team?

Hi,

it appears to be third party affiliate marketing. Unfortunately, my questions were not addressed. Could you please respond to them? If not, I will have no choice but to close this case.

Hi the unsubscribe button does not work it just brings you to the website. The emails are being issued by a 3rd party which I can only imagine is at the request of the company I cannot understand why they would be issuing them. Under the GDPR, a company remains responsible for emails sent on its behalf — even if a third-party provider actually sends them.


Here’s how GDPR treats this:


1. The company is the "data controller."


If the company decides:


who receives the emails


what the emails contain


why they are being sent



…then it is acting as a data controller.

Controllers are ultimately responsible for GDPR compliance.

Hello, dear player and Casino Guru representatives!


After reviewing the emails, we can confirm that this is not a branded mailing sent by us. We can also guarantee that the player was removed from all of our brand’s mailing lists after the account was closed. Additionally, we would like to clarify that we do not share any user data with third parties.

How does the email bring you to your website and also contain features that relate to your website

Public

Dear Postout,

I am sorry about the situation, but based on the information available I believe you are not eligible for a refund and there is nothing further the casino team can assist you with. It has been clearly proven that those emails were not sent by the casino team, so they cannot be held responsible for the actions of third parties. If you have already tried asking the senders to stop and they ignored your request, I recommend blocking their email addresses.

If this does not help, creating a new email address may be a practical solution. Since your current address may have been shared across multiple gambling platforms, these third party emails can be difficult to avoid completely. A new address would help you prevent this in full.

I am sorry, but I must close this case as unjustified since the casino team did not send those emails and respected your self exclusion. You have every right to disagree with my conclusion, and you may also file an official complaint with the casino’s licensing authority, although I expect their opinion will be the same.

Kind regards,

Jozef
