Privacy Policy

Who This Policy Applies To

This Privacy Policy applies to all individuals who visit or interact with gransinocasino-official.org.uk (the "Site"). It describes how the operators of the Site collect, use, store, and share personal data, and sets out the rights available to individuals under applicable data protection legislation, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

The entity responsible for determining how personal data is processed in connection with this Site (the "data controller") is identified in the Site's footer documentation.

Categories of Data We May Collect

Depending on how you interact with the Site, we may process the following categories of personal data:

Identification data — such as your name and email address, submitted voluntarily through contact forms or account registration
Technical and usage data — including IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, and time spent on the Site (collected automatically via server logs and analytics tools)
Cookie data — preferences and identifiers stored in your browser; see the Cookies section below
Correspondence data — the content of messages or enquiries you submit to the editorial team

We do not collect payment card details, government-issued identity documents, or financial account information through this Site.

Purposes of Processing

Personal data collected through the Site is processed for the following purposes:

Provision of the Site and its content — ensuring the Site functions correctly for your device and location
Responding to enquiries — processing and replying to messages submitted via the contact form
Site security and fraud prevention — detecting and mitigating abusive, automated, or malicious activity
Analytics and performance improvement — understanding how visitors navigate the Site in order to improve content and structure (typically using aggregated or anonymised data)
Compliance with legal obligations — retaining records where required by applicable law

Legal Bases for Processing

We rely on the following legal bases under UK GDPR:

Legitimate interests — for analytics, security monitoring, and improving the Site, where these interests are not overridden by your rights
Contractual necessity — where processing is required to respond to a request you have made
Legal obligation — where we are required to retain or disclose data under applicable law
Consent — for non-essential cookies and similar technologies, where your consent is obtained before processing

Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Site uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — and similar tracking technologies. These may include:

Strictly necessary cookies — required for the Site to function; these do not require consent
Analytics cookies — used to understand aggregate visitor behaviour (for example, via Google Analytics or a comparable tool)
Preference cookies — used to remember settings such as language or display preferences
Affiliate and referral cookies — used to track referrals to third-party casino platforms where a commercial relationship exists

When you first visit the Site, you will be presented with a cookie consent mechanism. You may withdraw or adjust your consent at any time through the cookie settings accessible in the Site footer.

Sharing Data with Third Parties

We do not sell personal data. We may share data with trusted third-party service providers acting as data processors — for example, hosting providers, analytics platforms, or email delivery services — under contractual terms that require them to protect your data and use it only as instructed.

We may also disclose data where required by law, regulation, or a valid order from a competent authority.

Retention Periods

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. Contact form data is generally retained for a period sufficient to resolve the related enquiry and a reasonable period thereafter. Technical log data is typically retained for a shorter period in line with standard operational practice.

Your Rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the following rights in respect of your personal data:

Right of access — to obtain a copy of the personal data we hold about you
Right to rectification — to request correction of inaccurate data
Right to erasure — to request deletion of your data in certain circumstances
Right to restriction — to request that processing be limited in certain circumstances
Right to object — to object to processing based on legitimate interests
Right to data portability — to receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format where technically feasible
Right to withdraw consent — where processing is based on consent, to withdraw that consent at any time

To exercise any of these rights, please use the contact channels listed in the Site footer. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law (generally one calendar month).

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you believe your data has been handled unlawfully.

International Data Transfers

Some of our third-party service providers may be located or operate infrastructure outside the United Kingdom or European Economic Area. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with applicable data protection law.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or applicable law. The current version will always be available on this page.
