This privacy policy explains what personal data casinolicence.co.uk handles and why. The site is published by Node Solutions LTD, which is the controller of the data described here. The short version: the site has no accounts, sets no tracking cookies and collects only what a web server needs to run.
Who is responsible
Node Solutions LTD publishes the site and decides how the data in this policy is used. You can contact us at info@casinolicence.co.uk about anything in this policy. The law that applies is the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018, together known as UK GDPR.
What we collect
Server logs. When you load a page, the web server records technical details of the request: the date and time, the address of the page, the type of browser and device, the response code and the network (IP) address that made the request. This is standard for any website.
Emails. If you write to us, we receive your email address and whatever you include in the message. We use it to reply and to keep a record of corrections.
Nothing else. There are no user accounts, no sign-in, no newsletter, no comment forms and no payment forms. We do not ask for your name or any gambling history. We do not want such data, so please do not send it.
Cookies and tracking
The site sets no tracking cookies and no advertising cookies. It does not use third-party analytics that profile visitors or follow them across other websites. A site that sets only cookies strictly necessary to work would not need a consent banner under UK rules, and we do not set any beyond that. If this changes, we will say so here before it takes effect.
Links on the site lead to public bodies such as the Gambling Commission, GAMSTOP and GamCare. Once you follow a link, that organisation's own privacy policy applies, not this one.
Why we use the data, and the legal basis
We use server logs to keep the site available, to find and fix faults and to guard against abuse. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in running a secure website. We use emails to respond to you, on the basis of our legitimate interest in answering enquiries and keeping the content accurate.
We do not sell personal data, and we do not use it for advertising or profiling. We do not make decisions about people by automated means.
How long we keep it
Server logs are kept for a limited period needed for security and fault finding, and are then deleted. Emails are kept for as long as needed to deal with the matter and to record any correction made. If a record of a correction needs to be kept, we keep the minimum.
Who sees the data
Our hosting provider processes server logs on our behalf. We may disclose data where the law requires it, for example to a court or a regulator. We do not share personal data with casinos or operators.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you can ask us for a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, ask us to limit how we use it, and object to its use. Email info@casinolicence.co.uk and we will respond within one month. We may ask you to confirm who you are before we act.
If you are not happy with how we handle your data, write to us first. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
Changes
If we change how we handle data, we will update this page. For the rules of using the site, read the terms, and for how the site works, see how we work.
