1. Scope of this Privacy Policy
This policy applies to this GoldenBet website and the pages published under this domain. It covers information handled in connection with browsing the site, using its navigation, following internal links and leaving the site through affiliate or informational links.
This website is an informational and affiliate publication. It does not itself create casino player accounts, accept wagers, hold player balances, process casino deposits or decide casino withdrawals. If you leave this website and interact with another service, that service is responsible for its own data collection and privacy information.
2. Information the Website May Handle
Information you actively provide
GoldenBet does not provide a first-party casino registration form, payment form or newsletter sign-up on this website. Do not send passwords, bank details, identity documents or other sensitive information by email or through informal contact channels.
Technical information
Hosting and security services may automatically process limited technical information such as an IP address, request time, requested page, browser or user-agent information, referral data and basic error or security events. This information may be used to deliver the website, diagnose faults and protect the service from abuse.
Affiliate referral information
Promotional links can contain a referral identifier so the destination service can recognise that a visit originated from this website. A destination or affiliate platform may then report a conversion or qualifying action. This website does not need your casino password or payment-card details for that referral process.
Analytics and advertising tracking
GoldenBet does not currently use first-party analytics cookies, advertising pixels or social-media tracking pixels on this website. If optional tracking technologies are introduced, the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy will be updated and consent will be requested where required.
3. Why Information May Be Used
Limited website information may be used to:
- deliver pages and site assets to your device;
- maintain security and investigate suspicious or abusive traffic;
- diagnose technical faults and improve reliability;
- understand whether an affiliate referral resulted in a qualifying action where referral reporting is available;
- comply with a lawful request or legal obligation where one applies;
- protect the website, its content and users from misuse.
Information should not be collected simply because it might be useful later. The purpose should be defined before processing begins and the amount of information should be limited to what is reasonably needed.
4. Lawful Bases Under UK Data Protection Law
Where UK data protection law applies, personal information must have a valid lawful basis. Depending on the activity, a website may rely on legitimate interests for essential security and service administration, legal obligation where processing is required by law, or consent for optional technologies that require a user choice.
Consent is not automatically the lawful basis for every form of processing. If non-essential cookies, analytics or advertising technologies are introduced, they should not be activated until the required consent has been obtained.
6. How Long Information Is Kept
Personal information should not be retained for longer than needed for the purpose for which it was collected. Security and server logs, where present, should have defined retention periods based on operational and security needs. Referral or accounting records may need different periods where a legitimate business or legal requirement applies.
Where no continuing purpose exists, information should be deleted or anonymised in line with the applicable retention process.
7. Your Data Protection Rights in the UK
Depending on the circumstances and lawful basis, UK data protection law can give you rights over personal information. These can include the right to request access, correction or deletion, to restrict certain processing, to object to some uses, to receive portable data in qualifying circumstances and to withdraw consent where consent is the basis being used.
Not every right applies in every situation. A request may also require enough information to verify identity and locate the relevant records.
If you believe your data-protection rights have not been handled properly, you can find guidance and complaint information from the UK Information Commissioner's Office.
Information Commissioner's Office complaint guidance ↗8. Security and International Processing
Reasonable technical and organisational safeguards should be used to protect information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or loss. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, so users should also avoid sending unnecessary sensitive data through public or informal channels.
If a hosting, security or other service provider processes personal information outside the UK, an appropriate transfer mechanism and safeguards should be used where UK data protection law requires them.
9. Children and the 18+ Nature of the Site
This website discusses gambling and is intended for adults aged 18 and over. It is not directed at children and should not knowingly be used to collect personal information from children for gambling-related purposes.
10. Changes to This Policy and Privacy Contact
This policy may be updated when the website changes, new service providers are introduced, tracking technology changes or applicable privacy requirements are updated. The date at the top of the page shows the latest revision.
Privacy questions and data-rights requests can be sent to [email protected].
