This Privacy Policy explains how nodepositnotongamstop.uk.com (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal data when you visit our website. Please read it carefully. By using this site, you acknowledge and agree to the practices described herein. This policy is compliant with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Section 01
Who We Are
nodepositnotongamstop.uk.com is an independent affiliate review and information website that provides guides, reviews, and comparisons of online gambling operators — in particular, casinos that are not registered with GamStop and offer no-deposit bonuses to UK players.
We are the data controller responsible for your personal data collected through this website. We do not operate any gambling services ourselves; we are a purely informational and comparison service.
For queries relating to your personal data, please contact us using the details in Section 14.
Section 02
Information We Collect
We collect and process different categories of personal data depending on how you interact with our site:
| Category | Examples | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Usage Data | Pages visited, time on site, referring URL, clicks, browser type, device type, operating system | Automatically collected via cookies and analytics tools |
| Technical Data | IP address, approximate geolocation, session identifiers | Automatically collected by our servers |
| Contact Data | Name, email address, message content | Provided voluntarily via contact forms |
| Marketing Data | Preferences, communication opt-in status | Provided by you or inferred from your activity |
| Cookie Data | Cookie identifiers, affiliate tracking parameters | Collected automatically (see Section 5) |
We do not intentionally collect special category data (e.g. health, financial, or biometric data). We also do not collect payment information — any transactions occur directly on third-party gambling sites.
Section 03
How We Use Your Information
We use personal data we collect for the following purposes:
- To operate and improve the website — understanding which pages are popular, identifying technical errors, and optimising user experience.
- To track affiliate referrals — when you click a link to a third-party casino, we may use cookies to record the referral so we can earn commission. This tracking is disclosed clearly in Section 6.
- To respond to enquiries — if you contact us via a form or email, we use your details to respond.
- To comply with legal obligations — including record-keeping and responding to lawful requests from authorities.
- For analytics and research — to understand aggregate visitor behaviour and improve content relevance.
- For security purposes — to detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or unlawful access.
We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
Section 04
Legal Basis for Processing
Under UK GDPR, we must have a lawful basis to process your personal data. The bases we rely on are:
- Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) — for analytics, site improvement, fraud prevention, and affiliate tracking. We have balanced our interests against yours and determined these activities do not override your rights.
- Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)) — for non-essential cookies and marketing communications, where we ask for your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent at any time.
- Contractual necessity (Art. 6(1)(b)) — where processing is necessary to respond to your enquiries or provide requested information.
- Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)) — where processing is required by law, including responding to regulatory or law enforcement requests.
Section 05
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate this website and provide services. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device.
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Consent Required? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Essential for the site to function (e.g. session management, security) | No |
| Analytics | Track usage statistics (e.g. Google Analytics — anonymised IP) | Yes |
| Affiliate Tracking | Record referral clicks to gambling partners for commission purposes | Yes |
| Preferences | Remember your cookie choices and any display preferences | Yes |
You can manage or withdraw cookie consent at any time via the cookie banner on our site, or by adjusting your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of this website. For more details, visit aboutcookies.org.
We may use Google Analytics with IP anonymisation enabled. Data collected is subject to Google’s own privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
Section 06
Third Parties & Affiliates
This website is an affiliate site. When you click on links to casino operators featured on our site, we may receive a commission from that operator. This is a standard practice in the online gambling affiliate industry and does not affect the price you pay or any bonus you receive.
When you follow an affiliate link:
- You will be redirected to a third-party casino website, which has its own privacy policy and terms of service.
- We may pass a tracking parameter (e.g. a referral code) to that operator so they can attribute the referral.
- We do not share your personal data with casino operators unless you explicitly provide it to them yourself by registering on their site.
Third-party service providers we may use include, but are not limited to:
- Google Analytics — website analytics
- WordPress / Zakra — website platform and hosting
- Cloudflare — security and CDN services
- Affiliate Networks — commission tracking platforms
All third parties we engage are required to process data in accordance with applicable data protection law. We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
Section 07
Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law.
- Analytics data — retained for up to 26 months, after which it is aggregated or deleted.
- Contact enquiries — retained for up to 3 years from the date of last correspondence.
- Affiliate tracking cookies — typically expire within 30–90 days depending on the operator’s cookie window.
- Server logs — retained for up to 12 months for security purposes.
When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.
Section 08

Section 09
International Transfers
Some of our third-party service providers (such as Google) may transfer and process your data outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:
- Transfers to countries with an adequacy decision by the UK Secretary of State;
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTAs) approved by the ICO; or
- Other legally recognised transfer mechanisms.
You may request details of the specific safeguards in place for any such transfers by contacting us.
Section 10
Children’s Privacy
This website is intended for adults aged 18 and over only. Online gambling is not suitable for minors. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If you believe we have inadvertently collected data from a minor, please contact us immediately and we will delete it without delay.
Section 11
Responsible Gambling
While this is a privacy policy, we take our duty of care seriously. Gambling should be conducted responsibly and for entertainment only. The casinos featured on this site are not registered with GamStop — this means they will not automatically apply GamStop self-exclusion settings.
If you are concerned about your gambling, we urge you to seek help from the following free services:
- BeGambleAware — begambleaware.org
- GamCare — gamcare.org.uk
- GamStop (UK self-exclusion scheme) — gamstop.co.uk
- Gordon Moody — gordonmoody.org.uk
Section 12
Security
We take the security of your personal data seriously and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, loss, destruction, or alteration. These measures include:
- Secure HTTPS connections across the entire website;
- Restricted access to any personal data we hold;
- Regular review of security practices and policies.
However, no transmission of data over the internet is completely secure. If you suspect a security breach involving your data, please contact us immediately.
Section 13
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, our business practices, or the services we offer. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of this website after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
