Information disclosure and Third-Party policies
OUR WEBSITE

third parties, unless expressly requested by a user. All information
collected is used solely for the purpose of offering the best

LINKS TO OTHER SITES
While Bingo-acgm.org has its own privacy policy, it is built upon a
directory of bingo halls across the nation. As such, many bingo halls
are allowed to list a link to their own website. Links to these halls,
or any of our advertisers, are beyond the control of ACGM Bingo and
therefore our Privacy Policy does not apply. Each company listed on
our site employs their own privacy policy, and have their own
information gathering techniques. While we strive to maintain the
integrity of the links available on this website, you should read each
website's privacy policy, as visiting that site is at your own risk.
