Winbeast Privacy Policy 2026 | How We Use Your Data
This notice explains what personal data we collect when you read our Winbeast guide, why we collect it, and what control you have. We are an editorial comparison guide. We do not operate a casino, take deposits or hold player accounts. This policy follows UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, and was last reviewed in 2026.
Data we collect
We collect only what we need to run the guide. Technical data is gathered automatically when you visit: your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, referring page and approximate location at country or region level. If you contact us, we also receive your name, email address and the content of your message. We do not ask you to register an account, and we do not collect payment details or gambling activity. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18, and this guide is intended for adults only.
How we use your data
We use your data to keep the guide working, understand which pages help readers, and improve our content on Winbeast and related topics. We use contact details solely to answer your enquiry. Where UK GDPR requires a lawful basis, we rely on legitimate interests for site security and analytics, consent for non-essential cookies, and legal obligation where the law requires us to keep a record. We do not sell your personal data. We do not make automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.
Cookies and tracking
We use essential cookies to make the guide function, and optional cookies for analytics and affiliate attribution. Optional cookies are only set after you give consent, and you can change your choice at any time through the cookie settings in the page layout. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser, though some features may then work less smoothly. Our cookie page lists each cookie, its purpose and how long it lasts.
Third-party services
We use a small number of trusted providers. Analytics tools help us measure traffic and reading behaviour in aggregated form. Affiliate tracking technology records when a visit from our guide leads to a click on an operator's site, so we can be credited for the referral. Once you leave our guide, the operator's own privacy policy applies, and we encourage you to read it. Our providers act under written agreements and may only process data on our instructions. Some may process data outside the UK, in which case we require appropriate safeguards.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, correct inaccurate data, request erasure, restrict or object to processing, and request a portable copy of your data. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting earlier processing. We respond to valid requests within one month. If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK data protection regulator.
Data retention and contact
We keep technical and analytics data for no longer than 26 months, and enquiry emails for up to 12 months after the conversation ends, unless the law requires longer. After that, we delete or anonymise the data. To make a privacy request or ask a question about this notice, use the contact option in the site layout and include the word Privacy in your message so it reaches the right person. We may ask you to confirm your identity before acting on a request. If you gamble, please do so responsibly and only if you are 18 or over.
