Privacy Policy
Back to homeLast updated: 10 April 2026 · Controller: lirabetaff.com (informational website)
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you visit lirabetaff.com (the “Site”). It is written for visitors in the United Kingdom and reflects the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) as supplemented by the Data Protection Act 2018, together with applicable guidance from the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). We aim to process personal data lawfully, fairly, and transparently, and only to the extent necessary to operate a secure editorial service about licensed gambling operators. If you are reading this policy because you clicked an outbound link to a casino or betting brand, remember that the operator’s own privacy notice will govern data you provide on their website or app.
Who we are
The Site is operated as an independent information and comparison resource. For data protection purposes, the controller is the legal entity or individual responsible for the domain and associated infrastructure. You may contact us about privacy matters at info@lirabetaff.com. We do not appoint a statutory Data Protection Officer unless required by law; nonetheless we treat security and confidentiality seriously and will escalate complex requests where appropriate.
Information we may collect
- Server and security logs. Our hosting environment may automatically record technical data such as IP address, approximate geographic area derived from the IP, user-agent string, requested URL, referrer header, HTTP status, and timestamp. We use this information to detect abuse, debug outages, and maintain the integrity of the service.
- Cookies and similar storage. Where you interact with our cookie banner, we may store a preference flag in local storage or a small cookie file to remember your choice. The age-verification flow may use session storage to reduce repeated prompts during the same browser session. Details of each category are set out in the Cookie Policy.
- Communications you initiate. If you email us, we process your email address, any names you include, the message body, and technical delivery metadata. We do not operate a live chat or telephone support line through this Site as standard.
- Aggregated analytics (if enabled). If we deploy privacy-conscious analytics in the future, we will update this policy and, where consent is required, refresh our cookie controls. At present we prioritise minimal measurement consistent with editorial operations.
Legal bases for processing
Under the UK GDPR we rely on one or more of the following bases: (1) Legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the Site, understanding aggregate readership patterns, and defending legal claims, balanced against your rights; (2) Consent where we place non-essential cookies or similar technologies that require it; (3) Legal obligation where we must retain records for tax, regulatory, or law-enforcement purposes; and (4) occasional Contract processing if you enter a direct commercial relationship with us (for example, a formal content licence) that is documented separately.
How we use information
We use personal data to deliver pages reliably, enforce age and cookie choices, respond to correspondence, analyse technical faults, comply with court orders or regulator requests, and protect our rights. We do not sell personal data in the conventional sense of exchanging lists of identifiable individuals for money. We do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects solely by automated means in relation to visitors.
Sharing and international transfers
We may share limited technical data with infrastructure providers (for example, hosting, DNS, or email delivery services) who act as processors under written terms that require appropriate safeguards. Some processors may store data in the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, or other countries. Where transfers occur, we rely on adequacy regulations, standard contractual clauses approved by the ICO, or another permitted transfer mechanism. Outbound links to operator sites are not “sharing” of your data by us; once you leave, the destination’s policy applies.
Retention
Security logs are retained for a period consistent with incident investigation and industry practice, typically rolling off after months rather than years unless a specific issue requires longer storage. Email correspondence may be kept for up to six years where needed for legal defence or contractual claims. Cookie and local storage items persist according to their purpose until you clear site data or we deploy an expiry aligned with the Cookie Policy.
Security
We implement administrative and technical measures appropriate to the nature of the Site, including transport encryption (HTTPS), access controls on administrative interfaces, and patching of underlying software. No online service can guarantee absolute security; you should keep devices updated and avoid submitting sensitive information by email unless encrypted channels are agreed in advance.
Your rights
Subject to exemptions, you may have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to certain processing, and to data portability where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means. You may withdraw consent where processing is consent-based without affecting the lawfulness of earlier processing. You may lodge a complaint with the ICO (www.ico.org.uk). We encourage you to contact us first so we can attempt to resolve concerns promptly.
Children
The Site is not directed at individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a minor has provided information, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
Changes to this policy
We will post updates on this page and revise the “Last updated” date when changes are material. Significant changes may also be highlighted through a short notice on the Site where practical.
