We also process your data when it is in our legitimate interests to do this and when these interests are not overridden by your data protection rights. Examples of this include processing your data to provide us with information on how our website is used and can be improved and ensuring compliance with our terms and conditions.
8. Meeting our Obligations
Legal and Regulatory Requirements:
We need to comply with a range of legal and regulatory requirements, some of which involve the use of personal information and/or set out timescales for which we need to keep that information. As a provider of betting and gaming services, we are regulated by the Gambling Commission of Great Britain and in the Republic of Ireland under the Betting (Amendment) Act 2015. To comply with these legal requirements, we carry out checks at any time to ensure that our customers bet and play responsibly and legally. We take our social responsibility and our commitment to responsible gambling very seriously and we actively look for behaviour that may indicate that someone is at risk of problem gambling so that we can intervene at an early stage to provide them with support and direct them to sources of help. When a customer based in Great Britain self-excludes through the ‘GAMSTOP’ national self-exclusion scheme, we will receive a notification of this, which we will use to apply their chosen restriction across our sites and apps. To help us understand the factors that can indicate the early stages of problem gambling, we look at information about customers who have self-excluded (either directly or through GAMSTOP), such as age, location and past betting behaviour, to identify common factors. This helps us intervene earlier in cases where customers may be at risk of problem gambling, and provide them with better support. We are also subject to laws and regulations relating to other aspects of our business, such as payment processing or complaint handling and some of these may require us to retain personal information for a specified period of time, which may extend after your account has been closed .
Fraud, Money Laundering and Other Illegal Activity:
When you set up an account with us, place bets or play our games , we carry out identity verification, fraud prevention and anti-money laundering checks, validating the information you give against third party crime prevention databases and, where necessary, information from publicly-available sources. We may share your personal data with organisations that verify details and transactions and identify potential indicators of illegal activity, which they make available to other organisations using their services. Where necessary, we share your data with Credit Reference Agencies or fraud prevention agencies, which keep a record of that information and make it available to other organisations for use in credit decisions, identification checks and fraud detection and prevention. Where appropriate, we pass information to the police and other law enforcement agencies, debt recovery companies and other similar bodies. It is important that betting and gaming operators work together to prevent illegal activity and promote responsible gaming. In Great Britain, our industry is working with the Gambling Anti-Money Laundering Group, the Gambling Commission and the UK Information Commissioner’s Office to establish a framework for sharing information between providers for this purpose. Where we believe it appropriate and necessary to do so to prevent money laundering and fraud, we will share information with, and receive information from, other betting and gaming providers. We will always do this legally and in accordance with any industry guidelines.
9. Privacy Rights: Can I object to having my personal information used in this way?
This category covers activities we are obliged to do in order to provide our services legally, responsibly, and in accordance with the requirements of our regulators, and ultimately to protect our customers and our business. We cannot provide you with our services without carrying out these activities, and if you don’t want your data used in this way, your option is to not use our services and close your account.
10. Disclosure of your information:

Those bodies may then use your personal information to investigate and act on any such breaches in accordance with their procedures. Credit and Fraud-Prevention Agencies: for ID verification and the prevention of fraud, money laundering and other illegal use of our pay-to-play services, we use commercially-available tools or services provided by Credit Reference and Fraud Prevention Agencies and service providers.

We use reasonable administrative, logical and physical controls, including password protection, to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft and unauthorised access, use or modification. However, some limited personal Information provided to us is transmitted using unencrypted protocols. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.

Information that we collect may be stored and processed in and transferred between any of the countries in which we operate in order to enable us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

(i) follow your instructions; (ii) comply with a legal duty; or (iii) work with our agents and advisers who we use to help run your accounts and services.
If we do transfer information to our agents or advisers outside of the EEA, we will make sure that it is protected in the same way as if it was being used in the EEA. We’ll use one of these safeguards:
(i) transfer it to a non-EEA country with privacy laws that give the same protection as the EEA. Learn more on the European Commission Justice website; (ii) put in place a contract with the recipient that means they must protect it to the same standards as the EEA. Read more about this here on the European Commission Justice website; (iii) transfer it to organisations that are part of Privacy Shield. This is a framework that sets privacy standards for data sent between the US and EU countries. It makes sure those standards are similar to what is used within the EEA.
