Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Top Betting Sites List operates topbettingsiteslist.co.uk as an informational comparison website. For privacy queries, contact us using the details published on this site (data controller information will be listed in your deployment configuration).

2. Data we collect

Depending on how you interact with the site, we may process:

• Technical data — IP address, browser type, device identifiers, and referral URLs
• Usage data — pages viewed, clicks on outbound bookmaker links, and approximate location derived from IP
• Communications — information you send if you email us for support or press enquiries
• Cookie data — as described in our Cookie Policy

3. Why we use data

• Operate and secure the website
• Measure audience trends and improve editorial layouts
• Attribute affiliate referrals to licensed operators
• Comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests

4. Legal bases (UK GDPR)

We rely on legitimate interests to run analytics and affiliate tracking where permitted, on consent for non-essential cookies, and on contractual necessity where we must retain records to prove compliance with advertising or gambling regulations.

5. Sharing with third parties

We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited information with analytics providers, hosting partners, and bookmakers when you click outbound links (so they can attribute your visit). Each third party processes data under its own privacy policy.

6. Retention

We keep logs and analytics for as long as needed to operate the service and defend legal claims, then delete or anonymise them according to our internal retention schedule.

7. Your rights

Under UK data protection law you may have the right to:

• Access, rectify, or erase personal data we hold about you
• Restrict or object to certain processing
• Withdraw cookie consent at any time via browser settings
• Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)

8. International transfers

Some service providers may process data outside the UK. Where that happens, we use appropriate safeguards such as UK International Data Transfer Agreements or equivalent mechanisms.
