Privacy Policy: Your Data Rights Explained

This page explains how Betting Sites Not on GamStop collects, uses, and protects your personal data. We operate under the UK GDPR framework, overseen by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). Please read this policy carefully before using our site.

Who We Are

This website is an independent review and information resource. We do not hold a UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) licence. We do not accept bets, process payments, or operate any gambling service directly.

What Data We Collect

We collect data in three main ways: through cookies, contact form submissions, and affiliate tracking links. Each method is explained below.

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our site. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our pages. Google Analytics collects anonymised data such as page views, session duration, and approximate location.

We do not use cookies to identify you personally. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Your cookie preferences are recorded when you interact with our cookie consent banner.

Contact Form Submissions

If you submit a contact form, we collect your name and email address. We use this data solely to respond to your enquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list without your explicit consent.

Affiliate Tracking Links

Our site contains affiliate links to offshore bookmakers not registered with the UKGC. When you click an affiliate link, the bookmaker’s platform may set its own tracking cookies on your device. Those cookies are governed by the bookmaker’s own privacy policy, not ours.

We receive a commission if you register or deposit with a linked bookmaker. This commission does not affect the price you pay. We do not share your personal details with affiliate networks beyond the anonymised click data generated by your visit.

Third-Party Data Sharing

We share limited data with the following third parties.

  • Google Analytics: Anonymised usage statistics to improve site performance.
  • Affiliate networks: Anonymised click and referral data linked to your session, not your identity.
  • Hosting providers: Server log data including IP addresses, retained for up to 30 days for security purposes.

We do not sell your personal data to any third party. We do not share identifiable data with advertisers.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process your data under the following legal bases recognised by UK GDPR.

  • Legitimate interests: Analytics and site security.
  • Consent: Non-essential cookies and marketing communications.
  • Contract: Responding to contact form enquiries.

Cookie Consent

When you first visit our site, a cookie consent banner appears. You can accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences individually. Your choice is stored for 12 months before we ask again.

Essential cookies, such as those required for site security, are always active. You cannot opt out of essential cookies without affecting site functionality.

Data Retention

Contact form data is retained for up to 12 months after your last correspondence. Analytics data is retained for 14 months within Google Analytics, then automatically deleted. Server logs are deleted after 30 days.

Children’s Data

This site is intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted data to us, contact us immediately at [email protected].

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy periodically to reflect changes in law or our practices. The date at the bottom of this page shows when it was last revised. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can contact the ICO directly. The ICO is the UK’s independent data protection authority. You can reach them at ico.org.uk or by calling 0303 123 1113.
