Terms of Use

Information only

AusRoo publishes comparisons and reviews of online pokies sites for readers in Australia. Nothing on this site is an offer, an inducement, financial advice or a guarantee of any outcome. AusRoo does not operate gambling services, does not take deposits and does not hold player funds.

Age and jurisdiction

This site is for readers aged 18 and over. The Interactive Gambling Act 2001 restricts operators from providing online casino services to people in Australia; the operators listed are licensed offshore. It is your responsibility to check the law that applies to you before using any operator.

Accuracy and dating

Bonus terms, deposit methods and studio lists are recorded from operators’ published pages on the date shown with each figure. Operators change terms without notice. Where AusRoo’s record and the operator’s page differ, the operator’s page governs. AusRoo makes reasonable efforts to re-verify figures and to publish corrections, but does not warrant that any figure is current.

Affiliate links and ownership

Links to operators are affiliate links marked sponsored. AusRoo may receive a commission if you register through one. Some listed operators share ownership with AusRoo; the about page names them. Neither relationship affects a score, and the methodology is published so that this can be checked.

Your relationship with operators

Any account you open, deposit you make or dispute you have is between you and the operator under the operator’s terms. AusRoo is not a party to it and cannot intervene, though we welcome reports of operator conduct that bear on a review.

Intellectual property

Text on this site is AusRoo’s. Operator names and logos belong to their owners and are used to identify the operators reviewed. You may quote short extracts with attribution and a link.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, AusRoo is not liable for any loss arising from reliance on this site, from use of any operator, or from any inaccuracy. Where liability cannot be excluded it is limited to re-supplying the information.

Changes and contact

These terms are dated at the top of the page. Questions go to the contact page.

Use of the site

You may read, link to and quote this site for personal, journalistic or research use. You may not scrape it to republish operator records as your own, frame it inside another site, or use its content to promote gambling to people under 18 or in a place where it is unlawful.

Operator terms govern

Each operator’s promotion terms, general terms and privacy policy govern your use of that operator. AusRoo records those terms on a stated date for comparison. If the operator’s current page differs from AusRoo’s record, the operator’s page applies, and you should read it before you deposit.

No guarantee of availability

Operators listed here may block Australian access, close, rebrand or change domain at any time. AusRoo does not guarantee that any operator is accessible, solvent or paying withdrawals, and a listing is not an endorsement. Where AusRoo has run a deposit and withdrawal test, the review states the date and the result; where it has not, the review says “pending”.

Responsible gambling

You are responsible for your own gambling. Gambling Help Online (1800 858 858) provides free, confidential support around the clock. If you have self-excluded from gambling, do not use this site to find an operator.

Corrections and takedowns

We correct factual errors promptly when notified; see the contact page. We do not remove reviews at an operator’s request. An operator that believes a review is factually wrong should send the current terms and we will re-verify and publish the result.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. Any dispute about this site (not about an operator) is subject to the courts of that state. If any provision is unenforceable the rest continue to apply.

Severability and entire agreement

These terms, together with the privacy policy, are the whole agreement between you and AusRoo concerning use of this site. If we do not enforce a term on one occasion that does not waive it.
