Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data on several legal grounds. In most cases, we rely on the necessity of processing to perform our contract with you, to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations as a licensed operator, and to pursue our legitimate business interests, such as fraud prevention and service improvement. Where required, we will also ask for your explicit consent, for example when sending marketing communications.

  • We may share data with law enforcement agencies if we suspect fraudulent or illegal activity

Affordability and Responsible Gambling Checks

As part of our commitment to safer gambling, we conduct affordability checks on our players. We use the personal and financial information you provide, along with data obtained from credit reference agencies where necessary, to assess whether continued play is appropriate for you. We take this responsibility seriously and use this data solely for responsible gambling and regulatory compliance purposes.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, including meeting our legal and regulatory obligations under our UK Gambling Commission licence. Generally, we retain account and transaction records for a minimum period required by anti-money laundering regulations, even after you close your account with us.
