Privacy Policy 🔒
This policy applies to visitors of our review site, which publishes independent assessments of W88 and other online casinos for readers in the United Kingdom. We are not the operator of any casino and do not accept bets, deposits or gambling accounts. Our site is intended for persons aged 18+ only.
We process personal data in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, which are overseen by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
Data we collect
- Technical data: IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages viewed and referring page.
- Communication data: your name, email address and message content if you contact us.
- Preference data: cookie choices and, where you subscribe, newsletter consent.
We do not ask for payment card details, identity documents or gambling account credentials. Pages are delivered over SSL/TLS 256-bit encryption.
How we use data
We use data to operate and secure the site, to analyse which content is read, to answer enquiries, and to send updates you have requested. Our legal bases are legitimate interests (site security and analytics), consent (non-essential cookies and newsletters) and legal obligation where applicable. We do not make automated decisions that produce legal effects about you.
Cookies
Essential cookies keep the site functioning. Analytics cookies measure traffic in aggregate. Affiliate cookies record that a visitor arrived from our site when following a link to a casino, so that we may be credited for the referral. Non-essential cookies are set only after you consent, and you may withdraw consent at any time through your browser settings or the cookie notice.
Third parties
Our site contains affiliate links to casino operators. Once you leave our site, the operator's own privacy policy governs your data. W88, for example, holds no licence valid for the United Kingdom market, and we recommend that you read the privacy terms of any operator before registering. We also share data with hosting providers and analytics services acting on our instructions. We do not sell personal data.
Retention
Enquiry messages are kept only as long as needed to resolve them. Analytics data is retained in aggregated or anonymised form. Newsletter data is deleted when you unsubscribe.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you may:
- request access to the personal data we hold about you;
- request correction or erasure of your data;
- restrict or object to processing;
- request data portability;
- withdraw consent at any time;
- lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office.
We respond to verified requests within one month.
Contact
