These are not offers made by Gambino. These offers may be displayed to you based on certain technical information, such as your geographic area or anonymous demographic information. After clicking on one of these advertisements, you may no longer be on a site hosted by Gambino, Facebook, Apple, or Google Play. To properly credit user accounts and to prevent fraud, a unique identifier, in some cases your user ID number, will be shared with the offer wall provider. This identifier is used to ensure proper crediting of your account, prevent fraud or duplicate offers and to resolve any customer service inquiries that may arise. Once you complete an offer, you will then return to the Gambino website or game. Any problems with offers non provided after an effort to take part in a survey or adverts requirements must be directed to the Offer Provider responsible for this.

Facebook controls the basic profile information held within the game and this can be changed, edited, or updated via your normal Facebook profile. If you completely delete all such information, then your account may become deactivated. If you would like us to delete your record in our system, please contact us via the ticket system using the same email used at signup and login and quote as much detail as possible and we will attempt to accommodate your request.
