Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10 April 2026. This Privacy Policy describes how affenzabet.com (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, stores, and shares personal data when you visit or interact with our website and related communications, where UK data protection law applies. We aim to be transparent about our practices and to give you meaningful choices where the law requires. This policy should be read together with our Cookie Policy and Terms of Service. If you disagree with how we process personal data, you should adjust your browser settings, use the controls we provide (such as the cookie banner), or stop using the Site.

Who we are and how to contact us

We operate an independent editorial and comparison website focused on UK-facing gambling information. We are not a remote gambling operator and we do not provide games of chance for stakes on our own account. For privacy enquiries, data subject requests, or questions about this policy, contact info@affenzabet.com. Please include enough detail for us to verify your request and respond securely. We may ask for additional information to confirm identity before disclosing or deleting data, in line with ICO guidance.

Scope and 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 to us, please contact us promptly so we can investigate and take appropriate steps, which may include deletion where required by law.

Categories of personal data we may process

The data we process depends on how you use the Site. Typical categories include: technical identifiers such as IP address, user agent string, device type, operating system version, language preferences, and approximate location derived from IP; usage data such as pages viewed, time on page, scroll depth, click events on our own interface, referrer URL, and timestamps; communication content if you email us, including your email address, message body, attachments you choose to send, and metadata generated by mail servers; and records of consent or preference choices where we store them locally in your browser (for example cookie banner outcomes).

Sources of data

Most information comes directly from your device when you load pages or interact with features. We may also receive data from service providers that host the Site, deliver security protections, or help us understand aggregated traffic patterns if you consent to analytics cookies. We do not buy marketing lists of gambling customers for re-identification on this Site.

Purposes and lawful bases under UK GDPR

We process personal data where we have a lawful basis. We rely on legitimate interests to operate, secure, and improve the Site, understand aggregated audience behaviour, prevent fraud and abuse, defend legal claims, and manage affiliate tracking in line with industry standards, balancing those interests against your rights. Where required, we rely on consent for non-essential cookies and similar technologies. We process data necessary to perform steps prior to a contract or to respond to pre-contractual enquiries when you contact us about a commercial relationship. We process data where necessary to comply with legal obligations, such as responding to lawful requests from regulators or courts.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies, local storage, session storage, and comparable tools as described in our Cookie Policy. Essential technologies may be needed for security, load balancing, or to remember your cookie choices. Optional technologies help us measure content performance. You can manage many technologies through browser settings and through our banner. Blocking certain cookies may limit functionality.

Affiliate tracking and outbound links

When you click a tracked link to a partner operator, that brand may receive referral parameters and set its own cookies or pixels on its domain. We do not control those technologies. You should read each operator’s privacy notice before creating an account or depositing funds.

Recipients and processors

We use carefully selected service providers to host infrastructure, distribute content, monitor uptime, detect malicious traffic, and analyse aggregated statistics. Processors act on our instructions and must implement appropriate technical and organisational measures. We may also share information with professional advisers (lawyers, accountants) under confidentiality obligations, or with authorities when required by law.

International transfers

Our hosting or tooling providers may process data in the UK, the European Economic Area, or other countries. Where data is transferred outside the UK, we rely on adequacy regulations or appropriate safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum, or standard contractual clauses approved for UK use, supplemented by transfer risk assessments where appropriate.

Retention

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described. Server logs may be retained for a limited rolling period for security. Email correspondence may be kept longer where needed to resolve disputes or satisfy legal retention duties. Cookie lifetimes vary by category as set out in the Cookie Policy.

Security

We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No online transmission is completely secure; you should use updated browsers and protect your devices.

Automated decision-making and profiling

We do not use solely automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning you in relation to this Site. Basic analytics may segment audiences in aggregate without targeting individuals in a high-impact way.

Your rights

Depending on circumstances, you may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, object to processing based on legitimate interests, withdraw consent where processing was consent-based, and request portability for data you supplied processed by automated means under contract or consent. You may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. We encourage you to contact us first so we can try to resolve concerns.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect legal, technical, or business developments. Material changes will be highlighted on the Site or communicated where appropriate. The “Last updated” date at the top shows the latest revision.
