1. Who we are
Casinocrateuk10 is an independent editorial comparison website covering online casino brands available to players in Great Britain. We are not a gambling operator and we do not open, administer or manage casino accounts. When this policy refers to "we", "us" or "our", it means the people responsible for publishing and maintaining this website, its pages, its analytics setup and its contact channels.
Because we run an editorial website rather than a gambling platform, the data we handle is limited. We do not ask users to deposit, register for play or submit payment card details through our pages. Our contact activity is mainly limited to routine website operation, email correspondence and a small set of technical logs that allow the site to function safely and consistently.
2. What information we may collect
The personal data we may collect includes your email address if you contact us, the content of the message you send, and technical information associated with that contact such as the date, time and subject line. We may also process limited device and browsing information, including browser type, approximate location inferred from IP data, page views, referral source, language preference and interactions with site features such as cookie choices.
We do not intentionally collect special category data and we ask you not to include unnecessary sensitive information in email correspondence. If you choose to send such information anyway, we will handle it carefully and only for the limited purpose of responding to your request or complying with legal obligations.
3. How information is collected
Most information reaches us in one of three ways. First, you may send it directly when you email privacy@casinocrateuk10.co.uk. Second, our hosting environment and analytics tools may generate technical records automatically when you browse the site. Third, we may receive affiliate performance data in aggregated form when a visitor clicks a tracked outbound link to a casino partner.
Affiliate reporting generally tells us that a click or registration event happened through a campaign reference. It does not usually reveal your full identity to us. If a partner were ever to share personal data in error, we would treat that as an exceptional case and take steps to limit further use, request correction and document the issue.
4. Why we process your data
We process personal data to operate the website, respond to messages, protect the security of the service, measure page performance and understand which editorial content readers actually use. We also process limited preference data so that features such as the age confirmation and cookie banner behave consistently and do not reappear unnecessarily on every page load.
We do not sell personal data, and we do not profile individuals for intrusive marketing. Our use of data is tied to running a review site that is accessible, compliant and technically stable. Where advertising or affiliate reporting exists, it is aimed at understanding page effectiveness rather than building hidden behavioural dossiers about individual users.
5. Lawful bases under UK GDPR
Our lawful basis will depend on the context. We rely on legitimate interests when processing basic analytics, security logs, anti-fraud records and routine site administration because these activities are reasonably expected and necessary for operating an editorial publication online. We rely on consent for non-essential cookies or similar technologies where consent is required.
When you contact us directly, we may process your data because it is necessary to respond to your request or because doing so serves our legitimate interest in administering correspondence. In some cases we may also process information where needed to comply with legal obligations, such as record-keeping around rights requests or complaints.
6. Cookies and local storage
Our site uses a light technical setup. In particular, we store a local record of whether you have passed the age gate and whether you have made a cookie choice. Those records help us avoid repeatedly blocking access with the same overlay. We may also use analytics tools to understand traffic patterns, page engagement and general site health.
For a fuller explanation of cookies, see our separate Cookies Policy. That page explains categories, retention and ways to manage your settings. If you disable certain storage methods, parts of the site may become less convenient, though the core editorial content should remain accessible.
7. Sharing information with third parties
We may share data with trusted service providers that support hosting, analytics, email handling, security monitoring and website maintenance. Those providers act on our instructions or on a clearly defined independent basis and are expected to handle personal data with appropriate safeguards. We do not authorise them to use your information for unrelated marketing.
We may also disclose information where required by law, court order, regulatory request or to protect the rights, property or safety of the site, our users or others. If the structure of the business changes, such as through a sale or transfer of assets, relevant data may be transferred as part of that process, subject to appropriate confidentiality measures.
8. International transfers
Some of our service providers may process data outside the UK. When that happens, we aim to use providers that offer an adequate level of protection or that are covered by recognised transfer safeguards, such as appropriate contractual commitments. We review those arrangements periodically to make sure the transfer context still makes sense for the nature of the data involved.
International transfers are usually limited to operational records such as analytics or correspondence management. We do not intentionally export more personal data than necessary simply because a tool happens to make it possible. Data minimisation remains part of our approach.
9. Data retention
We keep personal data only for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. Contact emails may be retained for administrative continuity, complaint handling, security review or legal compliance. Technical logs are generally retained for shorter periods unless they are needed to investigate abuse or protect the service.
When retention is no longer justified, we delete, anonymise or securely suppress the data. Different categories of data have different lifecycles, so there is no single universal retention period. We review retention in a practical way rather than storing everything indefinitely by default.
10. Your rights
Under UK GDPR, you may have the right to request access to personal data we hold about you, ask for correction of inaccurate information, request erasure in certain circumstances, object to some processing, request restriction, and ask for a portable copy where the law provides that right. You also have the right to withdraw consent where our processing depends on consent.
These rights are not absolute and may depend on context, but we take them seriously. If you wish to exercise any of them, contact privacy@casinocrateuk10.co.uk with enough information for us to identify your request. We may ask for reasonable verification if needed to protect your data from unauthorised disclosure.
11. Complaints
If you have concerns about how we use your information, please contact us first so we can try to resolve the issue directly and quickly. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office in the United Kingdom if you believe your data has been handled unlawfully or unfairly.
We prefer to deal with concerns in a clear and practical way. A short, specific email explaining what you think has gone wrong is often enough to start that process and helps us investigate more effectively.
12. Security measures
We use proportionate technical and organisational measures to reduce the risk of unauthorised access, misuse, loss or alteration of data. Those measures may include access controls, provider vetting, software updates, limited personnel access and monitoring for suspicious activity. No online environment is perfectly risk free, but we do not treat security as a box-ticking exercise.
Security also depends on the choices users make. If you contact us by email, avoid sending unnecessary personal information. If you click through to a casino or other third-party website, remember that its privacy practices will apply once you leave our domain.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect legal changes, operational adjustments or shifts in the tools we use. When we make meaningful changes, we will publish the revised text on this page and update the effective date if appropriate. Continued use of the site after the update means you have had the opportunity to review the revised policy.
If a change materially affects how we process data in a way that requires fresh consent, we will seek that consent where necessary rather than relying on silence.
14. Contact details
Questions about this privacy policy or about personal data can be sent to privacy@casinocrateuk10.co.uk. For general editorial feedback, you may instead use the broader site contact listed in the footer, though privacy-related matters are handled more efficiently through the dedicated address.
This site contains affiliate links and editorial content about gambling. If your concern is about gambling harm rather than privacy, please contact a specialist support service such as GamCare, BeGambleAware, or GAMSTOP. 18+
