Data Controller
goldbettingsiteslistuk.com is an independent editorial comparison website. We do not operate a sportsbook, accept wagers, or process financial transactions on behalf of users. As a result, the volume and sensitivity of personal data we process is significantly limited compared with a gambling operator.
Personal Data We May Process
Server & Access Logs
Your IP address, browser type and version, approximate geographic region derived from IP, the page requested, and a timestamp. Generated automatically by our hosting infrastructure for security and performance monitoring.
Analytics Data
Consent-DependentPages visited, scroll depth, time on page and navigation paths — collected in anonymised, aggregated form only when you accept analytics cookies. No individual profiles are built from this data.
Email Correspondence
If you contact us by email, we retain the message thread for as long as necessary to resolve your enquiry. We do not add email addresses to marketing lists without explicit consent.
Cookie Consent Preference
A record of your cookie consent decision is stored locally on your device. We do not transmit this to our servers.
We never:
Hold betting history, payment card details, or any personal account information related to gambling activity. We never operate as a data broker or sell personal data to any third party.
Legal Basis for Processing (UK GDPR)
Legitimate Interests
To operate and secure the Site, maintain server logs and protect against fraud and abuse.
Consent
For optional analytics cookies only. Consent may be withdrawn at any time by clearing your cookie preferences.
How We Share Data
We do not sell personal data. Data may be processed by the following categories of sub-processor, each subject to a data-processing agreement:
Hosting & infrastructure providers — Who store server logs
Analytics platforms — That aggregate anonymised usage signals (consent-dependent)
Affiliate networks — That attribute referrals when you click a bookmaker link
Data Retention
Server access logs are rotated on a short cycle (typically 30 days) and then purged. Analytics data is retained in anonymous, aggregated form. Email correspondence is deleted once fully resolved, unless a longer retention period is required by applicable law.
Security Measures
The Site is served exclusively over HTTPS with HSTS enforced. Administrative access requires multi-factor authentication. We conduct periodic security reviews and apply dependency updates promptly. If you discover a suspected vulnerability, please report it to info@goldbettingsiteslistuk.com before public disclosure so we can investigate and respond appropriately.
Your Rights Under UK GDPR
Subject to the exceptions permitted by law, you have the right to:
Access a copy of personal data we hold
Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
Request erasure (right to be forgotten)
Restrict processing during a dispute
Receive a portable copy of your data
Object to legitimate-interests processing
To exercise these rights, contact info@goldbettingsiteslistuk.com. Complaints may be lodged with the ICO.
Children
This Site is intended exclusively for adults aged 18 or over in line with UK gambling regulations. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data from minors. If you believe a child has submitted data through this Site, contact us immediately so we can delete it without delay.
International Data Transfers
Our hosting provider and some analytics sub-processors may operate infrastructure outside the United Kingdom. In such cases we rely on UK Standard Contractual Clauses or other transfer mechanisms approved by the ICO to ensure equivalent levels of data protection are maintained.
Changes to This Policy
We will publish a revised version of this policy whenever we make material changes to our data-processing practices. The effective date in the page header reflects the most recent update. Continued use of the Site after a revision constitutes acceptance of the updated policy, unless fresh consent is required by applicable law.
