JokaRoom’s copyright policy explains how we manage intellectual property, outlining the rights and responsibilities that apply to anyone using our website. The policy explains:
- What content belongs to JokaRoom
- Which materials belong to third parties
- How our content may be used
- How to report copyright infringement
Our goal is to protect original work while respecting the intellectual property rights of others. We also encourage lawful content sharing with proper attribution.
Please also read our Editorial Policy, Terms and Conditions, How We Rate Casinos, and Advertising Disclosure. Together, these pages explain how JokaRoom creates, reviews, and publishes content.
About This Copyright Policy
This copyright policy applies to every page, image, and document published on JokaRoom. It covers our own editorial output, the brand assets we license from casino operators and game studios, and any content submitted by visitors through comments or reviews. Site use is also governed by our terms and conditions, which this policy sits alongside rather than replaces.
Ownership of JokaRoom Content
JokaRoom owns the copyright to articles, casino reviews, slot guides, and ratings tables published on this website. We also own original photography, graphics, and page layouts created for our content. Our team follows a strict editorial policy before publishing any material.
This process includes:
- Research
- Fact-checking
- Editorial review
- Disclosure requirements
No content may be copied, republished, or redistributed without our written permission. Copyright exists from the moment original content is created. Publication is not required for copyright protection. A copyright notice is not required for ownership to apply.
Our copyright covers:
- Written content
- Page structure
- Comparison tables
- Ratings commentary
- Original wording
Brand Assets
The JokaRoom name, logo, colour palette, and site design are protected brand assets. These marks identify the JokaRoom brand and may not be used on third-party websites, in advertising, or in promotional material without prior written approval. Screenshots containing our logo are generally acceptable for editorial commentary. Proper attribution should always be provided.
Third-Party Intellectual Property
Some material on JokaRoom originates from outside sources rather than our own team. This material includes:
- Game screenshots
- RTP figures
- Volatility data
These assets remain owned by their respective software providers and game studios. Casino operator logos, bonus graphics, and licensing badges also belong to their respective owners. We display these assets only for identification purposes.
We also reference licensing marks from bodies such as the Malta Gaming Authority or Kahnawake Gaming Commission when confirming an operator’s credentials. These marks are used descriptively, not as an endorsement claim on behalf of the trademark holder.
Licensed Content
Certain images, icons, and statistical feeds on this site are used under licence from stock libraries, data providers, or software studios. These agreements permit JokaRoom to display the material but do not transfer ownership to us, and they do not grant permission for third parties to reuse it independently. Any licensed asset remains subject to the original licensor’s terms.
Permitted Use of Our Content
You may quote a short excerpt from a JokaRoom article for commentary, criticism, or news reporting, provided you credit jokaroom.io and link back to the original page. Sharing a single article link on social media or in a forum post is welcome and does not require our approval. Screenshots used for personal reference or private study also fall within acceptable use.
Any excerpt should be brief and must not reproduce the structure or substance of the original page. If you’re unsure whether a particular use qualifies, check our terms and conditions or contact us before proceeding.
Uses That Require Written Permission
Republishing a full article, review, or ratings table on another website requires written permission from JokaRoom, regardless of whether credit is given. The same applies to using our comparison tables, scoring methodology, or proprietary ranking data in a competing product. Commercial use of our brand assets, including in paid advertising, also needs prior sign-off.
Scraping the site to extract content in bulk, whether by automated tool or manual copying, falls outside permitted use and may result in access being blocked.
User Contributions
When you submit a comment, review, or forum post to JokaRoom, you retain ownership of it but grant JokaRoom a licence to display, moderate, and edit it on the site. You confirm the submission is your own work and does not infringe another party’s copyright. We reserve the right to remove submissions that appear to breach this policy or any applicable law.
Reporting Copyright Infringement
If you believe JokaRoom has used your copyrighted material without permission, send us a written notice identifying the specific content in question and its location on our site. Include a description of the original work, proof of ownership, your contact details, and a statement confirming the complaint is made in good faith. Notices should be sent through our official contact channel rather than posted as public comments.
A clear, specific notice helps our team locate the material quickly and respond without unnecessary delay.
Our Review Process
Once we receive a copyright notice, our editorial and legal teams review the claim against the original source material and our own production records. We check whether the content was independently created, properly licensed, or used within a permitted exception before deciding on next steps. This review typically takes a few business days, though complex cases involving licensed or third-party assets can take longer.
Where a complaint is upheld, we remove or amend the disputed material promptly and notify the party who submitted it. Where a complaint is not supported by evidence, we explain our reasoning in writing and retain the content in question.
False or Misleading Notices
Submitting a copyright notice that misrepresents ownership or is made in bad faith can expose the sender to legal liability. JokaRoom reserves the right to disregard notices that lack sufficient detail or evidence and to act against repeated abuse of this process.
External Intellectual Property
JokaRoom respects the intellectual property rights of casino operators, software studios, and regulatory bodies referenced across our site. Our ratings and rankings, explained in full on our how we rate casinos page, rely on publicly available terms and licensing data rather than any confidential or proprietary source. Commercial relationships that support our reviews are disclosed separately in our advertising disclosure which sits apart from copyright matters covered here.
Where an operator or provider believes their intellectual property has been misused on jokaroom.io, the reporting process above applies in the same way as for any other complaint.
Changes to This Copyright Policy
JokaRoom may update this copyright policy as our content, licensing agreements, or legal obligations change. Material updates will be reflected in the revised Effective Date shown at the top of this page. We encourage returning visitors to check back periodically, particularly before reusing any material from this site.
