This privacy policy explains how this website collects, uses, stores and protects personal data when you visit our pages. We are committed to handling your information responsibly and in compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Information We Collect
We collect limited data to operate this website and improve your experience. The types of information we may collect include:
Automatically collected data. When you visit this site, our servers and analytics tools may record your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring page, pages visited, time and date of access, and approximate geographic location derived from your IP address. This data is collected through cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy.
Information you provide voluntarily. If you contact us through any available communication channel, we may collect the information you choose to share, such as your name and message content. We do not operate user registration, account creation or comment systems on this site.
How We Use Your Data
We use the data we collect for the following purposes:
- To operate and maintain the website
- To analyse site traffic and user behaviour in aggregate, helping us understand which content is useful and how visitors navigate the site
- To improve site performance, content quality and user experience
- To detect and prevent technical issues, abuse or security threats
- To comply with legal obligations under UK law
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal data to third parties. We do not use personal data for automated decision-making or profiling.
Legal Basis for Processing
Under the UK GDPR, we process personal data on the following legal bases:
Legitimate interests. We process automatically collected data (such as analytics) to understand how visitors use our site, improve our content and maintain site security. We have assessed that this processing does not override your rights and freedoms.
Consent. Where we use non-essential cookies (such as analytics or advertising cookies), we rely on your consent, which you can provide or withdraw through the cookie consent mechanism on our site. See our Cookie Policy for details.
Legal obligation. We may process data where required to comply with applicable UK law or regulatory requirements.
Third-Party Services
This website uses third-party services that may collect data independently. These include:
Analytics providers. We use analytics tools to measure site traffic and understand visitor behaviour in aggregate. These services may set their own cookies and collect data according to their own privacy policies.
Hosting providers. Our website is hosted by a third-party provider that may log standard server access data including IP addresses and request information.
Affiliate and advertising partners. Some pages contain links to third-party betting and gambling websites. If you follow these links, those sites will collect data according to their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party site you visit through links on our pages.
Data Retention
We retain automatically collected analytics data in aggregated, non-identifiable form. Server log data that may contain IP addresses is retained for no longer than 90 days, after which it is deleted or anonymised. If you contact us directly, we retain correspondence for as long as necessary to address your query, after which it is deleted.
Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the data we hold against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. These measures include the use of HTTPS encryption for data in transit and access controls for stored data. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

- Right of access — you can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Right to rectification — you can ask us to correct inaccurate personal data
- Right to erasure — you can ask us to delete your personal data in certain circumstances

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided on this website. We will respond to valid requests within one month, as required by law.
International Transfers
Some third-party services we use may transfer data outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), to protect your data to a standard consistent with UK GDPR requirements.
