Privacy Policy: Your Data Rights Explained

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

Who We Are

We run an informational review website about betting sites not on GamStop. 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. Each method is explained clearly below.

Cookies and Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how you use our site. This tool collects anonymised data, including pages visited, time on site, and device type. Google Analytics uses cookies stored on your browser to gather this information.

Contact Form Submissions

If you contact us via our contact form, we collect your name and email address. We use this data only 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 covered by GamStop. When you click one of these links, the bookmaker may place a tracking cookie on your browser. This cookie records that you arrived via our site, so we may receive a commission. We do not receive your personal account details from these bookmakers.

Third-Party Data Sharing

We share limited data with two categories of third parties. These are affiliate networks and Google Analytics. We do not sell your personal data to any other party.

  • Affiliate networks: These networks track clicks and conversions via cookies. They confirm whether you registered with a bookmaker after clicking our link.
  • Google Analytics: Google receives anonymised browsing data to generate site reports. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cookie Consent

When you first visit our site, you will see a cookie consent banner. You can accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences individually. You can change your cookie settings at any time via the cookie settings link in our footer.

Essential cookies are required for the site to function correctly. Non-essential cookies include analytics and affiliate tracking cookies. Rejecting non-essential cookies will not affect your ability to read our content.

Your Rights Under UK GDPR

Under UK GDPR, you have specific rights regarding your personal data. These rights apply to any data we hold about you directly.

  • Right of access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to deletion: You can ask us to delete your personal data from our records.
  • Right to rectification: You can ask us to correct any inaccurate data we hold.
  • Right to object: You can object to how we process your data at any time.
  • Right to opt out: You can opt out of analytics tracking and affiliate cookies via our cookie settings.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to all verified requests within 30 days, as required by UK GDPR.

Data Retention

We retain contact form data for no longer than 12 months after your last enquiry. Analytics data is retained in Google Analytics for 14 months by default. Affiliate tracking cookies typically expire within 30 to 90 days, depending on the bookmaker.

Data Security

We take reasonable technical steps to protect any data you share with us. Our site uses HTTPS encryption on all pages. However, no online transmission is completely risk-free, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s Data

Our site is intended for adults aged 18 and over only. 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 privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be published on this page with a revised effective date. We recommend you check this page periodically to stay informed.

Contact Us

For any data-related requests or questions, email us at [email protected]. We aim to respond within 5 working days for general queries. For formal data subject requests, we will respond within 30 days as required by law.

This site is informational only. We do not hold a UK Gambling Commission licence. Content is intended for adults in jurisdictions where accessing offshore betting sites is legal.
