At GoldRushPokies.com, we prioritize transparency, honesty, and player safety above all else. This Disclaimer and Affiliate Disclosure is intended to explain important legal terms, clarify our relationship with affiliate partners, and inform you about your rights and responsibilities when using our website.

By accessing or using GoldRushPokies.com, you agree to the terms outlined below. Please read carefully to understand how we operate, what protections are in place for you, and how you can make informed decisions.

Website Disclaimer

Informational Purposes Only

The content you find on GoldRushPokies.com — including but not limited to casino reviews, in-depth articles, game guides, bonus breakdowns, and promotional information — is intended solely for informational and entertainment purposes. Our aim is to provide Australian players with reliable insights into the online pokies and casino industry, helping you navigate the many options available.

However, it’s important to understand that the online gambling landscape is dynamic and continuously evolving. Casinos frequently update their bonus offers, game selections, terms and conditions, and payment methods. Likewise, regulatory frameworks and legal requirements may change at any time without prior notice.

Because of this fast-changing environment, GoldRushPokies.com cannot guarantee that every piece of information on our site is always accurate, complete, or up to date at the moment you access it. We recommend that before engaging in any gambling activity, making financial commitments, or signing up to any casino, you verify all relevant information directly with the casino operator or service provider. This step is crucial to ensure that you have the most current, applicable, and precise details to make an informed decision.

No Professional Advice

GoldRushPokies.com does not provide legal, financial, or professional advice of any kind. Gambling laws and regulations can differ widely across Australian states and territories, and vary significantly in other jurisdictions worldwide.

If you have questions about the legality of online gambling in your location, concerns about compliance, or require advice regarding financial or personal implications related to gambling, you should seek the guidance of qualified professionals such as lawyers, financial advisors, or regulatory authorities.

Our site aims to inform and entertain, not to replace or substitute personalized advice from licensed experts. Always consult the appropriate professionals before acting on any information related to gambling legality, financial planning, or responsible gambling practices.

Risks of Gambling

Gambling, by its very nature, carries inherent risks. These include but are not limited to:

• The risk of financial loss, including losing more money than you initially wager.
• The potential for gambling addiction or compulsive behavior, which can negatively affect personal, social, and financial wellbeing.
• The chance of encountering scams or untrustworthy operators if due diligence is not performed.

GoldRushPokies.com does not encourage or endorse gambling beyond responsible limits. We emphasize the importance of playing within your means and maintaining control over your gaming activities.

Responsible Gambling Support

To support this, we provide extensive information about responsible gambling tools and resources on our platform. These include:

• Setting deposit, loss, and session time limits with casinos.
• Accessing self-exclusion and cooling-off options.
• Recognizing the warning signs of problem gambling.
• Connecting with professional support organizations such as Gambling Help Online and Lifeline Australia.

We strongly urge all players to approach online gambling as a form of entertainment, not a way to generate income or solve financial problems.

While we dedicate significant effort to ensuring the information on GoldRushPokies.com is accurate and reliable, the site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without any guarantees or warranties of any kind, express or implied.

GoldRushPokies.com and its owners, affiliates, employees, or partners do not accept liability for any losses, damages, or other negative outcomes, whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive, arising from your use of or reliance on our website.

This includes but is not limited to:

• Loss of money or assets due to inaccurate or outdated information.
• Technical errors or interruptions on our website.
• Issues encountered on third-party sites linked from our platform.
• Personal or financial consequences resulting from gambling activity.

By accessing and using GoldRushPokies.com, you acknowledge and accept that you do so at your own risk. You agree to take full responsibility for your decisions and actions based on the information provided on our site.

Additional Considerations

GoldRushPokies.com strives to maintain a high standard of quality and integrity. We regularly update content, monitor industry developments, and engage experts to review and validate our information.

However, external factors such as changes in casino policies, regulatory amendments, or unforeseen technical issues may affect the accuracy or availability of certain data.

We encourage our users to approach all gambling-related decisions with caution and to always conduct independent research in conjunction with the resources we provide.

By understanding and acknowledging this disclaimer, you empower yourself to use GoldRushPokies.com as a valuable tool — one that supports your journey through the world of online pokies with transparency, safety, and enjoyment.

Affiliate Disclosure

What Is Affiliate Marketing?

GoldRushPokies.com participates in affiliate marketing programs with various online casinos, payment providers, and other related service platforms. This means that when you click on an affiliate link found on our site and perform a qualifying action — such as creating an account, making a deposit, or engaging with a service — we may earn a commission from the operator.

This affiliate revenue model is a fundamental part of how GoldRushPokies.com operates. It allows us to cover the significant costs involved in maintaining the website, conducting comprehensive and independent research, hiring industry experts, producing high-quality content, and offering you free access to reliable, unbiased online pokies and casino information tailored specifically for Australian players.

No Additional Cost to Players

Using our affiliate links comes at no additional cost to you. The commission we earn is paid by the casino operators or service providers and does not affect the price, value, or quality of the products and services you receive.

In other words, whether you access a casino through GoldRushPokies.com or independently, the offers, bonuses, and gameplay remain exactly the same. Your experience and potential winnings are unaffected by our affiliate relationships.

Editorial Independence and Integrity

At GoldRushPokies.com, editorial independence is paramount. While we do participate in affiliate marketing, we do not allow commissions or marketing partnerships to influence our content in any way.

Our reviews, rankings, bonus evaluations, and all editorial content are developed through rigorous testing, objective criteria, and adherence to player safety standards. This means:

• Every casino we feature has undergone thorough analysis by our expert team.
• We only recommend casinos that meet our strict requirements for licensing, fairness, and transparency.
• No affiliate commission ever buys us a positive review or recommendation.
• If a casino fails to maintain quality or trustworthiness, we remove it from our listings — regardless of any affiliate relationship.

Your trust is our highest priority, and we strive to provide honest, balanced, and valuable insights to help you make informed decisions.

Partner Selection Criteria

We partner exclusively with casinos and services that uphold the highest standards in the industry. Before including any operator on GoldRushPokies.com, we verify that they:

• Hold valid and reputable gambling licenses issued by respected regulatory bodies such as the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA), UK Gambling Commission (UKGC), or Australian compliant jurisdictions.
• Demonstrate fair and transparent business practices, including clear terms and conditions and honest marketing.
• Offer secure and convenient banking options, with support for Australian payment methods such as POLi, PayID, and BPAY.
• Maintain responsive, helpful customer support to assist players promptly and professionally.
• Implement clear responsible gambling policies to protect players and promote safe gaming.

Should any partner fall short of these criteria or fail to meet our ongoing quality benchmarks, we take immediate action to remove them from our platform, maintaining the integrity and trustworthiness of our recommendations.

Transparency to Readers

We believe in full transparency. Whenever you encounter affiliate links or promotions on GoldRushPokies.com, it means we have a commercial relationship that may earn us a commission.

Our commitment is to:

• Keep our content honest and unbiased.
• Provide clear, straightforward explanations of all offers, bonuses, and terms.
• Ensure affiliate relationships never compromise player safety or experience.

We welcome questions or concerns about our affiliate practices and encourage readers to reach out if they need clarification.

How Affiliate Marketing Supports GoldRushPokies.com

The commissions earned through affiliate marketing directly support:

• In-depth casino and pokies research, ensuring reviews are detailed, accurate, and player-focused.

Without affiliate partnerships, the quality and breadth of information offered on GoldRushPokies.com would not be sustainable at the level our readers expect and deserve.
