This notice covers bluebetz.uk, the independent information site you are reading now – not the casino operator it writes about. If you're looking for our overview of Bluebetz and its welcome offer, that lives on our Bluebetz homepage. What follows explains what data we collect here, why we collect it, and what rights you hold over it under UK data protection law.
Who is responsible for your data
We are the data controller for information collected through this site. Any question about that information should come to us directly at [email protected], not to the operator we write about – we do not hold player account data and have no access to it.
What data we collect
Two categories cover almost everything we gather. The first is technical: your IP address, browser type, device information and the pages you visit, gathered automatically as you use the site. The second is anything you volunteer – mainly the name and email address you give us if you use the contact form. We do not ask for identity documents, passport details or payment information; that sort of verification belongs to the operator's own account process, not to ours.
Cookies and similar technologies
Some of the technical data above arrives through cookies, covered in full in our separate cookie policy. In short: a small set are necessary for the site to function, and anything beyond that – analytics, advertising – runs only with your consent.
Why we process it, and on what basis
Technical data supports the site's operation and security, and we rely on our legitimate interest in keeping the site working properly and understanding how it's used. Where we process anything by consent – analytics or marketing cookies, for instance – you can withdraw that consent at any time through your cookie settings. Contact-form submissions are processed to answer the query you raised, which is also a legitimate interest on our part.
Who else sees it
We share data with a small number of processors that make the site work – hosting providers, analytics tools, and where used, advertising partners. Each acts under instructions from us and is bound to appropriate data-protection terms. We do not sell personal data, and we do not pass it to the operator or to any other casino brand.
Your rights under UK GDPR
You have the right to access the data we hold about you, to have inaccurate data corrected, and to ask for it to be erased where there's no good reason for us to keep it. You can also ask us to restrict processing, object to it, request a copy in a portable format, and withdraw consent at any point where consent is the basis we're using. To exercise any of these, email [email protected] – we aim to respond within a reasonable timeframe. If you're not satisfied with our answer, you can complain to the UK's supervisory authority, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
How long we keep it
Technical logs are kept only as long as needed for the purposes above, and contact-form correspondence is retained for a limited period to allow us to follow up on a query, after which it is deleted.
Protecting minors
This site, and the subject matter it covers, is intended for adults aged 18+ only. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under that age, and this notice should be read alongside any parental controls in place on a shared device.
Changes to this notice
We may update this policy as our tools or obligations change. Material changes will be reflected here with a new effective date.
