Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, process, and protect your personal information when you access and use our online gaming platform. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of data protection in compliance with UK data protection legislation, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. By using our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

We collect various types of personal information to provide you with secure and engaging gaming experiences. The information we gather falls into several categories, each serving specific purposes related to account management, regulatory compliance, and service improvement.

Personal identification information forms the foundation of our data collection practices. This includes your full name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and telephone number. We also collect government-issued identification documents, such as passport or driving licence details, to verify your identity and ensure compliance with anti-money laundering regulations.

Financial information is essential for processing transactions and maintaining account security. We collect details about your preferred payment methods, transaction history, deposit and withdrawal records, and banking information. This data helps us facilitate secure payments and monitor for suspicious activities.

Gaming activity data encompasses your gameplay patterns, betting history, game preferences, session duration, and interaction with promotional offers. We also track device information, including IP addresses, browser type, operating system, and mobile device identifiers.

Purposes of Data Processing

We process your personal information for multiple legitimate business purposes, each designed to enhance your gaming experience while maintaining regulatory compliance and platform security. Our data processing activities are grounded in legal bases established under UK data protection law.

Account management represents our primary processing purpose. We use your information to create and maintain user accounts, verify player identities, process age verification requirements, and manage account settings and preferences. This processing ensures that only eligible individuals access our gaming services.

Transaction processing requires comprehensive data handling to facilitate deposits, withdrawals, and bonus distributions. We analyse financial information to detect fraudulent activities, comply with anti-money laundering obligations, and maintain accurate financial records as required by gaming regulations.

Regulatory compliance necessitates extensive data processing to meet obligations under UK Gambling Commission licensing requirements. We maintain detailed records of player activities, conduct responsible gambling assessments, and report suspicious transactions to relevant authorities.

Service improvement initiatives utilise aggregated and anonymised data to enhance gaming experiences, develop new features, and optimise platform performance. We analyse user behaviour patterns to personalise content and improve customer satisfaction.

Legal Basis for Processing

Our data processing activities rely on several legal bases established under the General Data Protection Regulation, ensuring that all information handling practices meet stringent legal requirements applicable in the United Kingdom.

Contractual necessity forms the primary legal basis for most of our data processing activities. When you create an account and accept our terms of service, we establish a contractual relationship that requires personal information processing to deliver gaming services, process payments, and maintain account security.

Legal obligation compliance represents another crucial basis for data processing. UK gambling regulations mandate strict identity verification, anti-money laundering checks, and responsible gambling monitoring. We process personal information to fulfil these regulatory requirements and maintain our operating licence.

Legitimate interests justify certain processing activities where our business needs align with user expectations and do not override individual privacy rights. These include fraud prevention, security monitoring, service improvement, and direct marketing to existing customers.

Explicit consent governs specific processing activities, particularly those related to marketing communications, cookies usage, and voluntary participation in promotional campaigns. You retain the right to withdraw consent at any time without affecting other processing activities.

Data Sharing and Third Parties

We share personal information with carefully selected third parties to deliver comprehensive gaming services and maintain regulatory compliance. All data sharing arrangements are governed by strict contractual obligations and privacy safeguards to protect your information.

Payment service providers receive financial information necessary to process deposits, withdrawals, and transaction verification. These partners operate under stringent security standards and are bound by confidentiality agreements that limit data usage to payment processing purposes only.

Regulatory authorities may receive personal information when required by law or regulation. We cooperate with the UK Gambling Commission, HM Revenue and Customs, and other relevant authorities to ensure compliance with anti-money laundering, taxation, and gambling regulation requirements.

Technology service providers support our platform operations through cloud hosting, data analytics, and security monitoring services. These partners process personal information under strict data processing agreements that ensure appropriate technical and organisational security measures.

Identity verification specialists conduct age and identity verification checks using government databases and third-party verification systems. This sharing is essential for preventing underage gambling and ensuring regulatory compliance.

We never sell personal information to third parties for marketing purposes, nor do we share data with unauthorised entities. All third-party relationships are carefully vetted and monitored to ensure compliance with data protection standards.

Data Security Measures

We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Our multi-layered security approach combines technical, physical, and administrative safeguards to ensure the highest level of data protection.

Technical security measures include advanced encryption protocols for data transmission and storage, secure socket layer technology for website communications, and robust firewall systems to prevent unauthorised network access. We regularly update security systems to address emerging threats and vulnerabilities.

Access controls limit personal information access to authorised personnel who require such access to perform their job functions. All staff members undergo comprehensive security training and are bound by strict confidentiality agreements regarding customer information.

Regular security audits and penetration testing assess our systems' vulnerability to potential threats. We engage independent security specialists to evaluate our protective measures and recommend improvements to maintain industry-leading security standards.

Data backup and recovery procedures ensure information availability while maintaining security integrity. Our backup systems employ encryption and geographic distribution to protect against data loss while preserving confidentiality.

Data Retention and Deletion

We retain personal information for specific periods based on legal requirements, business needs, and the purposes for which the data was originally collected. Our retention practices balance operational necessities with privacy rights and regulatory obligations.

Active account information is retained throughout the duration of your relationship with our platform. This includes personal identification data, financial records, and gaming history necessary for ongoing service provision and regulatory compliance obligations.

Closed account information is retained for extended periods to meet regulatory requirements imposed by the UK Gambling Commission and anti-money laundering legislation. Financial transaction records must be maintained for at least five years following account closure to support potential investigations and regulatory inquiries.

Marketing and communication data is retained based on your consent preferences and legal requirements. You can request removal from marketing databases at any time, though certain communication records may be preserved for regulatory compliance purposes.

Automated deletion procedures remove personal information when retention periods expire, unless legal obligations require extended preservation. We regularly review retention practices to ensure compliance with current regulations and minimise unnecessary data storage.

Your Rights and Choices

Under UK data protection law, you possess comprehensive rights regarding your personal information. We are committed to facilitating the exercise of these rights while maintaining the integrity of our regulatory obligations and security measures.

The right of access allows you to request copies of personal information we hold about you. We provide detailed information about data processing activities, sharing arrangements, and retention periods within one month of receiving valid requests.

Rectification rights enable you to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information. You can update most account information directly through your user profile, or contact our customer support team for assistance with more complex corrections.

Data portability rights allow you to receive personal information in structured, commonly used formats for transfer to other service providers. This right applies to information processed based on consent or contractual necessity.

Erasure rights, commonly known as the "right to be forgotten," permit you to request deletion of personal information in specific circumstances. However, regulatory obligations may limit our ability to delete certain information, particularly financial and gaming records required for compliance purposes.

To exercise your rights or raise concerns about our data processing practices, contact our Data Protection Officer through the designated channels provided in your account dashboard or customer support system. We respond to all valid requests within the timeframes established by applicable law.
