The public area of this website has a lot of information that we have set out in such a way to provide our users with a clear look into the world of sports betting in the United Kingdom from the best bookies to sign up with to tips for betting on different sports. When users move about our site, we track their movements so that we can get a good idea as to what parts of our website have more popularity.

If a user is after any personal data, then a request can be made to us. For instance, you can send us an email and give us your name and age (this is information we must have for legal reasons), your mobile number, and your address.

If a reader that is making use of our site is underage, then we stress that you should stop using our services straight away.

The data will not be destroyed completely until it has been used to improve our services. With us, no data is altered or disclosed. Although we do our best to take all the necessary precautions, we cannot guarantee that there will be no breaches in security. Sometimes, things are out of our control. Therefore, when users give us their information, they do so at their own risk.

12.0 Settings and Data Transfer
User settings can actually have an effect on your privacy and end up putting yourself at a bit of risk. Our servers will try to protect you as much as possible, but we would be lying to you if we claimed that they are 100% effective. The same thing can be said for third parties and any technology that they make use of, which is one of the reasons why we can never be held accountable for any problems that occur with them.
