Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 2025.
This Privacy Policy explains how bestclubarena.org collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website.
Information We Collect
We may collect information that your browser sends when you visit our site, such as your IP address, device type, browser type, and pages viewed. We may use cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy. We do not require you to create an account or to provide your name, email, or payment details to browse our site. If you contact us by email, we will process the information you provide only to respond to your enquiry. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under the age of 18; our site is intended for adults only and we rely on the age verification gate and your representation that you are of legal age.
How We Use Information
We use collected information to operate and improve the site, analyse usage patterns, and for affiliate tracking when you click through to partner operators. We do not sell your personal data to third parties. Analytics help us understand which pages are most useful so we can improve content and layout. Affiliate tracking is used so that when you sign up or deposit with an operator via our links, we may receive a commission; this does not involve us receiving your personal data from the operator. We may use your IP address to infer broad geographic region for compliance and to prevent abuse; we do not use it to identify you personally.
Legal Basis for Processing
Where applicable law requires a legal basis for processing personal data, we rely on: (a) your consent where we have asked for it (e.g. cookie consent); (b) our legitimate interests in operating the site, improving our services, and earning revenue through affiliate links, where those interests are not overridden by your rights; and (c) compliance with legal obligations. You may withdraw consent or object to processing where we rely on legitimate interests, subject to any overriding reasons we may have. Contact us to exercise your rights.
Third-Party Links
Our site contains links to external websites (e.g. online casinos). Those sites have their own privacy policies and may collect and process data in accordance with their own terms. We are not responsible for their practices. When you leave our site via a link, your interaction with the third party is governed by that party's policy. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any site you visit. We do not pass your personal data to third-party operators; any data they collect is done by them when you land on their site or interact with them.
Data Retention and Security
We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Session data (e.g. age verification) may be held only for the duration of your session. Analytics and log data may be retained for a limited period to allow us to analyse trends and maintain security. We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect your information, including use of HTTPS and secure practices on our servers. We cannot guarantee absolute security; transmission over the internet is never completely secure and you provide information at your own risk. In the event of a data breach that is likely to affect your rights, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority and, where required, affected individuals.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your data, to data portability, and to object to processing. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. In the UK, the supervisory authority is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the email below. We will respond within the time required by applicable law (e.g. one month under UK GDPR). We may need to verify your identity before processing a request. We do not charge for responding to legitimate requests.
International Transfers
Our site is operated from within the United Kingdom. If we ever transfer data outside the UK or EEA, we will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place (e.g. adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, or other approved mechanisms) as required by applicable data protection law.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the latest version. Material changes may be communicated by a notice on the site or by other reasonable means. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy where permitted by law.
