Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information Non GamStop Guide UK (podology.org.uk) handles when you read the site, why it is handled, and what control you have over it. It is written with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 in mind.

What the site collects

The site is informational. It does not ask you to register, deposit money or create a profile. The data involved is limited to:

• Technical data: IP address, browser type, device and pages viewed. This is logged automatically by the hosting server and any analytics tool in use.
• Messages you choose to send: if you get in touch through the contact page, your name, email address and message are kept only for as long as needed to reply.
• Cookies: small files that remember settings such as consent choices, and that measure traffic in aggregate.

Why it is used

Technical data helps keep the site secure and shows which guides readers find useful. Nothing is sold, and no profile is built about your gambling habits. The legal bases relied on are legitimate interests (site security and basic statistics) and consent (non-essential cookies).

Links to casino operators

Some pages link to offshore casinos that are not part of GamStop. Once you click through, the operator's own privacy terms and licensing jurisdiction apply, not this policy. Those sites may run identity checks, store payment details or set their own tracking cookies. Some links may be affiliate links, which can record that a visit came from this site, but they do not pass your personal details to the operator.

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete personal data held about you, object to its use, or withdraw cookie consent at any time through your browser settings. If you are unhappy with how a request is handled, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).

Changes

This policy may be updated when the site's tools or the law change. The current version always appears on this page.
