Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains how this website collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you visit and interact with our pages. We are an independent editorial guide covering the UK online gambling landscape, with a focus on non-GamStop casinos, offshore licensing, and responsible gambling resources. We do not operate a gambling platform, process bets, or hold player funds.

By using this website, you agree to the data practices described below. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, you should stop using the site.

What Information We Collect

We do not require registration, account creation, or login to access any content on this site. We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, payment details, or any other personally identifiable information through forms or input fields.

The information we may collect automatically when you visit includes: your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time spent on pages, and general geographic location derived from your IP address. This data is collected through server logs and analytics tools and is used in aggregate form to understand how visitors use the site.

How We Use Information

Automatically collected data is used for the following purposes: monitoring site performance and uptime, understanding which content is most useful to visitors, identifying and resolving technical errors, improving site structure and navigation, and analysing traffic patterns to inform editorial decisions. We do not use this information to identify individual visitors, build personal profiles, or target advertising to specific users.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

This website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device by your browser. A detailed breakdown of the cookies we use, their purpose, and how to manage them is available in our Cookie Policy. In summary, we use essential cookies required for basic site functionality and analytics cookies provided by third-party services to measure site usage. We do not use advertising cookies or tracking pixels that follow you across other websites.

Third-Party Services

We use third-party services that may process visitor data on our behalf. These services include analytics platforms such as Google Analytics, which collects anonymised usage data to help us understand traffic patterns. Google’s privacy practices are governed by their own privacy policy, available at policies.google.com/privacy. We may also use content delivery networks and hosting services that process server-level data (IP addresses, request headers) as part of delivering web pages to your browser.

We do not sell, rent, or share any visitor data with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

External Links

This site contains links to external websites, including gambling regulators, government legislation pages, research publications, and support organisations such as GamCare. Once you leave this site via an external link, this privacy policy no longer applies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites and recommend reviewing their individual privacy policies before providing any personal information.

Data Retention

Server logs containing automatically collected data are retained for a period necessary to fulfil the purposes described above, typically no longer than 26 months. Analytics data processed by third-party services is retained according to those services’ own data retention policies. We do not maintain any database of individual visitor records.

Your Rights

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have the right to: access any personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate data, request deletion of your data, object to or restrict the processing of your data, and lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk) if you believe your data rights have been violated.

Because we do not collect personally identifiable information through this site, most of these rights are unlikely to be applicable in practice. If you believe we hold data relating to you and wish to exercise any of the above rights, the request will be addressed promptly.

Children’s Privacy

This website publishes content about gambling, which is an activity legally restricted to individuals aged 18 and over in the United Kingdom. We do not knowingly collect any data from individuals under the age of 18. If you are under 18, you should not use this website.

Changes to This Policy

This privacy policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices or in applicable law. Any changes will be published on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
