Privacy policy – Legalbettinguk.com

Only the personal data needed to run an information site on legal betting in Great Britain is processed at Legalbettinguk.com. The UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 apply, and this policy discharges the duty to inform under Article 13 of the UK GDPR.

Who is responsible

The controller under Article 4(7) UK GDPR is the body running Legalbettinguk.com. Its name, address and e-mail address are available at legalbettinguk.com, which is also the channel for every question about personal data.

Data collected

Opening any page makes the server write a log entry: IP address, date and time, the address requested, the volume of data sent, the referring page and the browser type. Logs serve security and the detection of abuse; after 90 days they are deleted or shortened until they no longer point to a person. A message to the editors adds a name, an e-mail address and the text written, used for the reply alone. There are no reader accounts, deposits or bets, so no payment details or identity documents are collected.

Reasons and lawful bases

Logs, protection against abuse and answering messages rest on legitimate interests in keeping the site working and secure (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR). Cookies beyond the strictly necessary ones, and audience measurement, rest on consent (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR with regulation 6 of PECR) and start only after it is given. Consent can be withdrawn at any time without affecting earlier processing (Article 7(3)). Neither automated decision-making nor profiling takes place.

Who receives data

Nothing is sold. Processors working on the controller’s instructions supply hosting, content delivery and e-mail (Article 28 UK GDPR), and public authorities receive data where the law demands it. Data leaves the United Kingdom only for a country covered by adequacy regulations or under appropriate safeguards, such as the International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum (Article 44 onwards).

Keeping data

Server logs are kept for no more than 90 days. Correspondence is kept until the matter is closed and for as long as needed to meet possible claims. Supplying data in a message is voluntary, though no reply is possible without it.

Individual rights

Each person may ask for access (Article 15), rectification (Article 16), erasure (Article 17), restriction (Article 18) and portability (Article 20), and may object to processing founded on legitimate interests (Article 21). Requests are answered without undue delay and within one month of receipt, a period that can be extended by a further two months under Article 12(3).

Complaints

The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) is the supervisory authority. Anyone who believes their data has been handled in breach of data protection law may complain to it (Article 77 UK GDPR).
