Introduction
Privacy notices have a reputation for being unreadable, and most of them earn it. This one tries not to. Great Casino Non GamStop is an independent guide to casinos that sit outside the UK self-exclusion scheme, and if you are going to read what we publish, it seems fair that you can also understand what visiting greatcasinonongamstop.co.uk means for your data.
Everything below applies to this website. It does not apply to the casino sites we write about — each of those runs its own operation and publishes its own notice, and you should read theirs separately before signing up anywhere.
We decide how and why the information described here is handled, which in data protection language makes us the controller. You can reach us through the Contact Us page.
Information We Collect
Start with the good news: there is no sign-up on this site, no shopping basket, and nothing that asks you to prove who you are. We never see a name, an address or a payment card unless you type one into a message to us yourself.
What does happen is ordinary web housekeeping. Our server notes each request — the address it came from, the moment it arrived, the page it wanted, and the browser that asked. If you send us a message, we obviously keep the message, along with whatever way of replying you gave us.
That is the whole picture. It is deliberately small, because a guide site does not need more.
How We Use Information
Three purposes, and no others.
We use it to keep the site standing up: spotting errors, tracing outages, and blocking traffic that is trying to break something. We use it to learn what readers actually want, so the guides that go unread can be rewritten and the ones that help can be extended. And we use it to answer you when you get in touch.
The lawful bases sit underneath those purposes. Security and site upkeep rely on our legitimate interests. Replying to correspondence relies on our legitimate interest in dealing with people who contact us. Anything involving measurement or advertising cookies relies on your consent, freely given and just as freely withdrawn.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
A cookie is a small text file a website leaves in your browser so it can recognise something later. Similar jobs are done by local storage and by tiny invisible images sometimes called pixels; we treat all of them the same way here.
Some are unavoidable. Without them the site cannot remember whether you have already answered the cookie banner, and it would ask you the same question on every page. Others are optional: they count visitors, and they record when a reader has moved from one of our pages to an operator so that any commission owed can be attributed correctly.
Optional cookies wait for your permission. If you would rather have none of them, every current browser lets you refuse or delete cookies wholesale, and the guides will still read perfectly well without them.
Analytics and Advertising
We look at aggregated analytics — visitor numbers, popular pages, broad geography, whether people arrive on a phone or a laptop. The reports describe crowds rather than individuals, and we neither receive nor seek anything that would let us pick a single reader out of them.
On the advertising side, we should be direct about how this site is funded. When a reader follows one of our links and opens an account, the operator pays us a commission. That is tracked by the operator or its affiliate network, using their own cookies and link parameters. We are told that a referral converted. We are not told who you are, what you deposited, or what you played.
No display advertising runs on this site, and we do not build advertising profiles of our readers.
Data Sharing
We have never sold personal data and have no intention of starting.
A small number of organisations necessarily handle information on our behalf: whoever hosts the site, whoever delivers it quickly around the world, and the analytics and affiliate services described above. They are bound to use it only for the task we have given them. Separately, if a court order or a legal obligation requires disclosure, we will comply — and we would rather say so here than pretend otherwise.
Where any of those organisations processes data outside the UK, the transfer is covered by the protections UK law demands, whether that is an adequacy decision or the standard contractual clauses approved for the purpose.
Data Security
Traffic to and from this site is encrypted. The people who can log in to change it are few, their access is protected, and the software behind the site is kept current. Records that exist only for security and diagnostics are cleared once they have served that purpose.
None of that amounts to a guarantee. Any organisation claiming its website cannot be breached is either mistaken or selling something.
Your Rights
The UK GDPR, supplemented by the Data Protection Act 2018, gives you a set of rights that we are obliged to honour. In plain terms, you may ask what we hold about you and receive a copy; ask us to fix anything inaccurate; request its erasure; ask us to pause a particular use while a disagreement is sorted out; object to processing that rests on legitimate interests; exercise portability by asking for your data in a form you can take elsewhere; and take back any consent you gave, at any time.
Ask through the Contact Us page. We will reply within a month. If you think we have handled it badly, the Information Commissioner’s Office regulates this in the UK and accepts complaints directly at ico.org.uk — you do not need our permission to go to them.
Third-Party Links
This site links out constantly, to operators, to regulators’ registers and to support organisations. Following any of those links takes you somewhere we do not control and cannot vouch for. Their privacy practices are their own, and it is worth two minutes to check them before you hand over anything.
Age Restriction
Gambling content is for adults only. This site is intended for readers aged 18 and over, is not aimed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under that age. If that has happened, tell us and it will be removed.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
This notice will be updated when the law moves or when we change what the site does. The revision date at the top always reflects the current version, and significant changes will be flagged on the page rather than slipped in quietly.
Contact Information
For anything covered here — a question, a correction, a formal rights request — use the Contact Us page. A plain description of what you want is enough; you do not need to quote legislation at us.
