What data do we collect?
When you register we collect your name, email address, date of birth, home address, telephone number and chosen password. During KYC verification we additionally collect proof of identity, proof of address and proof of payment method. While you use the site we log your IP address, device information, browser type, language setting and session times so that we can detect fraud and improve the platform.
Gaming data includes placed bets, games played, transaction history and bonus activity. Communications with our customer support team are recorded for quality and compliance purposes. Cookies and similar technologies gather additional analytics data that cannot be traced back to personal identification beyond what is described above.
How do we use that data?
Account management is the primary purpose: without identification we cannot open an account, process deposits or approve withdrawals. Fraud prevention and anti-money laundering checks require device and IP analysis along with verification of payment methods. Marketing communications are only sent after you have explicitly opted in, and you may withdraw that consent at any time via your account settings.
We do not share your data with third parties for commercial purposes without your consent. We do share the minimum necessary information with our payment processors, KYC providers, gambling licence regulators and legally required authorities such as tax offices and anti-money laundering units in the jurisdictions where we operate. Game providers receive anonymised play data to improve their products.
What are your rights under UK GDPR?
The right of access entitles you to a full copy of everything we hold about you, provided free of charge within 30 days of your request. The right to rectification allows you to correct inaccurate data. The right to erasure, often called the right to be forgotten, applies to data we are no longer legally required to retain; under anti-money laundering rules that minimum retention period is five years after account closure.
The right to data portability lets you transfer your data in a standard format to another service. The right to object lets you contest specific processing purposes such as marketing. Requests should be sent to privacy@don-bet.net and we will respond within 30 days. If you are unhappy with our response you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
How long do we retain your data?
Account data and transaction history are retained for a minimum of five years after your last activity, in line with international anti-money laundering obligations. KYC documents are held in encrypted storage with access restricted to the compliance team. Support communication recordings are kept for 12 months unless a longer period is needed for an ongoing matter.
Cookies each have their own retention period, as described in our Cookie Policy. Marketing data is deleted immediately when you opt out. Anonymised analytics data is retained indefinitely because it can no longer be linked to individual players. On receipt of a formal erasure request, all data not subject to a legal retention requirement is deleted within 30 days.
