How Insider Casino Review Media Ltd collects, uses, shares and protects personal data, and the rights you hold under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
1. Who we are
Insider Casino Review Media Ltd ("Insider Casino Review", "we", "us") is the data controller for personal data processed through www.insidercasinoreview.co.uk. We are registered in England and Wales under company number 15 482 903, with a registered office at 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ, United Kingdom. You can reach our data protection contact at hello@insidercasinoreview.co.uk.
2. Scope
This policy covers personal data we collect through this website. It does not cover the practices of casino operators or any third-party website you reach by following a link from here. Those organisations are separate controllers with their own policies, which you should read before providing them with any information.
3. What we collect and why
| Data | Why we process it | Lawful basis | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Name, email, message content submitted through the contact form | To answer your enquiry and keep a record of correspondence | Legitimate interests (responding to you) | 24 months |
| Age confirmation checkbox | To confirm our audience is 18 or over, as required for gambling-related content | Legal obligation and legitimate interests | 24 months |
| Analytics data (pages viewed, approximate region, device type, referrer) | To understand which reviews are useful and improve the website | Consent, via the cookie banner | 14 months |
| Affiliate click identifier | To attribute a referral to us so the commission can be paid | Consent, via the cookie banner | Up to 30 days |
| Server logs (IP address, timestamp, requested URL, user agent) | Security, abuse prevention and diagnosing faults | Legitimate interests (network and information security) | 30 days |
We do not ask for, and you should never send us, financial details, passwords, copies of identity documents or information about your health. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18.
4. Cookies
Essential cookies and local storage entries are used to remember your cookie choice and keep the website functioning. Analytics and affiliate attribution are set only after you press Accept all. If you press Reject non-essential, no analytics or attribution identifiers are set and every page continues to work normally. Full detail, including how to change your mind, is in our Cookie Policy.
5. Who we share data with
We share personal data only with processors acting on our instructions: our website hosting provider (data centres in the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area), our email provider, and our privacy-focused analytics provider where you have consented. We do not sell personal data, we do not share it for third-party advertising, and we do not disclose the content of your enquiry to any casino operator. We may disclose data where required by law, court order or a regulator.
6. International transfers
Our processors are located in the UK and the EEA. Where any transfer outside the UK becomes necessary, we rely on UK adequacy regulations or the International Data Transfer Addendum to the European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses, together with a transfer risk assessment.
7. Your rights
- Access — a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Rectification — correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Erasure — deletion where we no longer need the data.
- Restriction — limiting how we use the data while an issue is resolved.
- Portability — receiving data you gave us in a machine-readable format.
- Objection — objecting to processing based on legitimate interests.
- Withdrawal of consent — at any time, without affecting prior processing.
To exercise any right, email hello@insidercasinoreview.co.uk. We respond within one month. There is no charge unless a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
8. Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, please tell us first so we can put it right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
9. Security
The website is served over HTTPS. Access to enquiry data is limited to editorial staff who need it, protected by multi-factor authentication. We keep no payment data of any kind, because we take no payments from readers.
10. Changes to this policy
We review this policy at least annually. Material changes are announced on this page with a new version number and date. The version in force is the one published here.
