  • Browser type, operating system, and language preferences
  • Pages visited, links clicked, and time spent on the site
  • Referrer source and exit pages

Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data based on one or more of the following legal grounds:

  • Contractual Performance – Processing necessary to provide services you have requested or to fulfil a contract with you.
  • Legitimate Interest – Processing for purposes such as site improvement, analytics, and fraud prevention, where our interests do not override your rights.
  • Legal Obligation – Processing required to comply with UK law, regulations, or court orders.
  • Consent – Processing based on your explicit consent, which you may withdraw at any time.

We do not process special categories of personal data (such as health, ethnicity, or religious information) unless you voluntarily provide it and we have explicit consent.

Third Parties and Data Sharing

Your personal data may be shared with:

  • Service Providers – Cloud hosting providers, analytics platforms, email service providers, and payment processors who assist in delivering our services.
  • Licensed Operators – When you click through to a third-party casino operator, your interaction with that operator is governed by their privacy policy, not ours.
  • Legal and Regulatory Bodies – Government agencies, law enforcement, and regulatory authorities when required by law.
  • Business Partners – Affiliate networks and promotional partners, only with your consent where applicable.

All third-party processors are required to implement appropriate security measures and use your data only for specified purposes.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data only as long as necessary:

  • Contact form submissions – Retained for up to one year to respond to inquiries and maintain records.
  • Account data – Retained for the duration of your account and a reasonable period after closure for legal and compliance purposes.
  • Analytics and logs – Generally retained for up to 12 months; older data is automatically deleted or anonymised.
  • Cookies – Retained according to their specific purposes (see Cookies section below).

If you request deletion of your data, we will remove it within 30 days unless we are legally required to retain it.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance functionality and gather analytics:

Essential Cookies – Required for basic site operation (login, security, language preferences). Cannot be disabled without impairing core functionality.

Performance Cookies – Track user behaviour and site performance to improve the experience. Include Google Analytics and similar services.

Marketing Cookies – Used to deliver targeted content and measure campaign effectiveness. You can opt out of these.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to decline non-essential cookies, though this may affect site functionality. We respect Do Not Track signals and do not override user privacy choices.

Your Data Rights

Under UK data protection law, you have the following rights:

  • Right of Access – Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Right of Rectification – Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Right of Erasure – Request deletion of your data (subject to legal obligations to retain it).
  • Right to Restrict Processing – Ask us to limit how we use your data.
  • Right to Data Portability – Request your data in a machine-readable format.
  • Right to Object – Decline certain types of processing, such as marketing communications.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the channels provided in the footer of this website.

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. This includes:

  • Encrypted data transmission (HTTPS/TLS)
  • Secure server infrastructure and firewalls
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing
  • Restricted access to personal data by authorised personnel only
  • Incident response procedures for potential breaches

However, no security system is completely foolproof. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.

International Data Transfers

Your data is primarily processed and stored within the United Kingdom. If data is transferred outside the UK (including to EU countries or other jurisdictions), we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the ICO, to protect your information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy indicates when it was last revised. Your continued use of the site following changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
