This page is a template containing placeholder wording that must be reviewed and completed by qualified legal counsel before publication.
LuckyThorne is an independent information and comparison website. This disclosure explains how we are funded, how our commercial relationships work, and why they do not dictate what we publish. It is written to be transparent under [PLACEHOLDER: applicable advertising and consumer-protection rules for jurisdiction], and the specific wording below should be confirmed by counsel.
1. We are not the operator
LuckyThorne does not run any casino, sportsbook, or other gambling service, and we do not accept deposits, place bets, or pay out winnings. Those activities are handled solely by the licensed operators we write about. When you click through to an operator, you leave LuckyThorne and are subject to that operator's own terms, privacy policy, and licence conditions. Any account, bonus, payment, or dispute is strictly between you and the operator. We are operated by [PLACEHOLDER: legal entity name and registered address], and questions about this site can be sent to the address in the Questions section.
2. How we earn commission
LuckyThorne is funded mainly through affiliate marketing. When you follow certain links on this site and then register or transact with an operator, we may receive a commission from that operator. This typically takes one of the following forms, and the exact commercial terms vary by partner:
- A one-off payment when a referred person completes a qualifying action.
- A share of the operator's net revenue attributed to referred players.
- A fixed placement or sponsorship fee, where disclosed.
Affiliate and sponsored links are implemented so that they open in a new browser tab and carry a rel="sponsored nofollow" attribute, so search engines are told the link is commercial and no ranking value is passed. Commission is paid by the operator, not by you: using our links never changes the price, bonus, or terms you receive compared with going to the operator directly. Not every link on this site is an affiliate link, and we may also link to operators or resources from which we earn nothing.
3. How commission affects our content
Commercial relationships do not decide our editorial views. Our writers and analysts assess operators against consistent criteria, and a partner cannot buy a higher rating, a more favourable review, or the removal of criticism. Where a page is sponsored or a placement is paid, we label it as such. Rankings, ratings, and recommendations reflect our editorial judgement based on the information available to us at the time of writing; they are opinions and general information, not advice about what is suitable for your individual circumstances. Where a page is commercial, we still aim to describe both strengths and drawbacks so you can make your own decision.
4. Accuracy and change
Offers, bonuses, terms, payment methods, and availability change frequently and can differ by country and by individual account. We take care to keep information current, but we cannot guarantee that every detail on this site is complete, accurate, or up to date at the moment you read it. Always confirm the current terms, eligibility, and any figures on the operator's own website before signing up or depositing. Any bonus, promotion, or offer is subject to the operator's terms and conditions; T&Cs apply, verify on the operator site. We may update, add, or remove partners and this disclosure at any time, and material changes take effect from [PLACEHOLDER: effective date].
5. Questions
If you have any questions about this disclosure, our commercial relationships, or how a particular link is classified, please contact us at [PLACEHOLDER: contact email or postal address]. We will respond within a reasonable period.
Gambling should be treated as entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems, and it carries a risk of loss. This site is intended for adults aged 18 and over. If gambling stops being fun, support is available from your national responsible-gambling and problem-gambling services. Please gamble responsibly. 18+, T&Cs apply.
