Online casinos are what betdispatchuk.com writes about for readers in Great Britain, offshore ones among them and those whose withdrawals are advertised as instant, and the personal data handled here goes no further than running an information site requires. The UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 set the rules. The duty to inform under Article 13 of the UK GDPR is met by this policy.
Controller
Article 4(7) UK GDPR defines the controller as the body that runs betdispatchuk.com. Its name, address and e-mail address are available at betdispatchuk.com, and every question about personal data goes through the same channel.
What is processed
A log entry is written by the server each time a page is opened: IP address, date and time, the address requested, the amount of data sent, the referring page and the type of browser. Security and the detection of abuse are what the logs serve, and after 90 days they are deleted or shortened so that they no longer point to a person. A name, an e-mail address and the text of the message are supplied by anyone who writes to the editors, and they are used only to answer. Reader accounts, deposits and stakes do not exist here, so no payment details and no identity documents are gathered.
Lawful bases and purposes
The controller's legitimate interests in keeping the site working and secure carry the server logs and the protection against abuse (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR); the same interest carries the answering of a message. Consent is required for cookies other than the strictly necessary ones and for audience measurement (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR together with regulation 6 of PECR), and they run only after it is given. Withdrawal of consent is possible at any time and does not affect the lawfulness of earlier processing (Article 7(3)). Profiling and automated decision-making are absent.
Recipients and transfers outside the UK
No data is sold. Processors that follow the controller's instructions — hosting, content delivery and e-mail (Article 28 UK GDPR) — are the recipients, along with public authorities where the law demands it. Only a country covered by adequacy regulations, or a transfer with appropriate safeguards such as the International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum, is used for anything sent outside the United Kingdom (Article 44 onwards).
Retention
Nothing is kept beyond what its purpose needs: server logs for no more than 90 days, correspondence until the matter is closed and for the period needed to defend against possible claims. Data given in a message is voluntary, but no reply is possible without it.
Rights
Access (Article 15), rectification (Article 16), erasure (Article 17), restriction of processing (Article 18), data portability (Article 20) and objection to processing based on legitimate interests (Article 21) are the rights of every person. Without undue delay and within one month of receipt comes the answer to a request; where needed that period can be extended by a further two months under Article 12(3).
Supervision and complaints
The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is the supervisory authority. Where the processing of their data is believed to breach data protection law, a person has the right to complain to it (Article 77 UK GDPR).
