We act as the data controller for personal information collected through our platform. As a data controller, we determine the purposes and means of processing your personal data. Our processing activities are governed by lawful bases established under UK data protection legislation, primarily including contract performance, legal compliance, legitimate interests, and consent where applicable.

We maintain comprehensive records of our processing activities and regularly review our data handling practices to ensure ongoing compliance with regulatory requirements.

We may share personal data with payment processors for transaction handling, identity verification services for compliance purposes, software providers for platform functionality, customer support systems for service delivery, regulatory authorities when legally required, and law enforcement agencies where lawful requests are made. All third-party recipients are subject to contractual obligations ensuring equivalent protection standards and limiting data use to specified purposes.

8. Data Retention Periods

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes. Our retention periods are based on regulatory requirements, business needs, and data protection principles.

Account information and transaction records are typically retained for seven years following account closure to comply with anti-money laundering regulations and gambling licensing requirements. Marketing consent records are maintained until withdrawal or for three years following last engagement. Technical logs and security data are generally retained for one year unless required for ongoing investigations or legal proceedings.

9. International Data Transfers

While we primarily process data within the UK and European Economic Area, certain processing activities may involve international data transfers to countries outside these regions. All international transfers are conducted in accordance with UK data protection law requirements and appropriate safeguards.

Where transfers occur to countries without adequacy decisions, we implement appropriate transfer mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by UK authorities or rely on specific derogations where applicable. We regularly review the necessity and security of international transfers to minimize cross-border data flows while maintaining service quality.
