Privacy Policy
Last updated: 10 April 2026. This policy explains how btbsbet.com (“we”, “us”) handles personal data when you browse our website in the United Kingdom. We respect your privacy and process data in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) where they apply.
1. Who we are
btbsbet.com is an editorial and affiliate information service. For privacy enquiries contact info@btbsbet.com. When we act as a controller, we determine the purposes and means of processing described below. Where we process data solely on behalf of another party under contract, their privacy notice may also apply.
2. Data we may collect
We may process technical data such as IP address, browser type, device identifiers, referring page, and timestamps. If you email us, we process the contents of your message and your address to respond. We may collect aggregated or de-identified analytics that cannot reasonably identify you. Server logs may record request metadata for security and troubleshooting.
3. Purposes and legal bases
We use data to operate and secure the Site, understand aggregate traffic, comply with law, and defend legal claims. Where UK GDPR applies, we rely on legitimate interests for basic analytics and site integrity (balanced against your rights), on consent where required (for example non-essential cookies—see our Cookie Policy), and on contract steps where you request information from us. We do not sell your personal data in the sense of exchanging it for money with unknown third parties.
4. Cookies and similar technologies
We may place cookies or similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy. You can control cookies through your browser and via the on-site banner where offered. Strictly necessary cookies may be required for security, load balancing, or remembering essential preferences. Analytics cookies, where used, help us understand which sections are read most often so we can improve structure and clarity.
5. Sharing
We may use infrastructure and analytics providers who process data on our instructions under appropriate agreements. When you follow links to third-party operators, those sites collect data under their own policies; we do not control their practices. We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our users or the public.
6. International transfers
If we transfer data outside the UK, we use appropriate safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, standard contractual clauses, or adequacy regulations where applicable. We assess transfer risks and supplementary measures where needed.
7. Retention
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above, including legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, then delete or anonymise it. Log retention periods are limited to what is necessary for security monitoring and incident investigation. Marketing or optional analytics data is retained only while the purpose remains valid or until you withdraw consent.
8. Your rights
Under UK data protection law you may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to processing, and to data portability where applicable. You may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). Contact us first so we can resolve your request promptly. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.
9. Automated decision-making
We do not use solely automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning you in relation to the Site. If that changes, we will update this policy and explain the logic and your rights.
10. Children
The Site is not directed at anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe we have received information about a minor, contact us and we will delete it where appropriate.
11. Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No online transmission is completely secure; you should use updated browsers and protect your devices.
12. Updates
We may revise this policy by posting changes on this page. Material changes will be indicated by updating the date above. Continued use after updates constitutes notice of the revised policy where permitted by law.
