Privacy policy for bet-bolt.uk
This notice covers bet-bolt.uk, an independent information portal that publishes reviews and guides about Betbolt and other online gambling brands. It does not cover what Betbolt itself does with your data once you visit its own platform and register there – that's governed by Betbolt's own privacy documentation, not this one. Below, we set out what we collect on this site, why, and what rights you have over it.
Who controls your data on this site
bet-bolt.uk is the data controller for information collected through this website. We're a UK-facing editorial portal, not a gambling operator, and we don't process player accounts, deposits or withdrawals for anyone. If you have questions about how we handle your information, contact us at [email protected].
What information reaches us
We collect two broad categories of data. The first is technical: your IP address, browser type, device information and pages viewed, gathered automatically through cookies and analytics scripts as you browse. The second is anything you volunteer directly, such as your name and email address when you submit a message through our contact form.
- Technical and usage data collected automatically on every visit
- Cookie identifiers, covered in more detail in our separate cookie policy
- Contact-form submissions – name, email address, and message content
- General location inferred from IP address (country/region level, not precise)
We do not collect financial details, gambling account information or identity documents. There's nothing for us to collect there, since we never handle registrations, deposits or KYC checks – that all happens on Betbolt's own platform, not here.
Why we process it
Purposes are limited and fairly ordinary for a content site: running the website reliably, understanding which pages readers find useful, responding to messages sent through the contact form, and preventing abuse of the site (spam, scraping, that sort of thing). We don't build advertising profiles beyond what a standard analytics or ad-network cookie does, and none of your data is ever sold.
Lawful basis for processing
Where cookies aren't strictly necessary for the site to function, we rely on your consent, gathered through the cookie banner. Where processing is necessary to run the site or answer a query you've raised yourself, we rely on legitimate interest or, in the case of a message you send us, on taking the steps needed to respond to it.
Sharing with third parties
Some data passes to third parties that help us run the site: analytics providers, advertising networks, and the hosting company that keeps bet-bolt.uk online. These providers process data under their own terms and only for the purposes we've engaged them for. We do not sell personal data to anyone, and we don't hand reader data to Betbolt or any other operator we write about.
Your rights under UK GDPR
As a UK resident, you have a set of rights over your own data under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. In practice, that means you can:
- Ask what personal data we hold about you (the right of access)
- Ask us to correct anything that's inaccurate (rectification)
- Ask us to delete your data where there's no good reason for us to keep it (erasure)
- Ask us to restrict processing in certain circumstances
- Ask for a copy of your data in a portable format (portability)
- Object to processing based on legitimate interest, or withdraw consent for cookies at any time
To exercise any of these, email [email protected] and we'll respond within a reasonable timeframe. If you're unhappy with how we've handled a request, you can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk, the UK's independent supervisory authority for data protection.
How long we keep information
Contact-form messages and any related correspondence are kept only as long as needed to deal with your query and for a reasonable period afterwards in case you follow up. Analytics data is typically retained in aggregated or anonymised form after a set retention window, following the defaults of the analytics tools we use.
Protecting minors
This site is intended for adults only. Access to gambling-related content on bet-bolt.uk is restricted to those aged 18 and over (18+), and we don't knowingly collect personal data from anyone under that age. If you believe a minor has submitted information to us, contact [email protected] and we'll remove it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this notice from time to time to reflect changes in the law or in how the site operates. Any revision will be posted here with an updated date, so it's worth checking back occasionally rather than assuming nothing has moved.
This policy was last reviewed on 6 August 2026.
