Scope of this notice
This privacy notice explains how aspone.co.uk ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses and protects personal information when you visit this independent review portal. We are not a casino operator, bookmaker or organiser of gambling – we publish information about Fatpirate and other brands for educational and marketing purposes. This notice covers only what happens on our own site; once you click through to an operator's platform, that operator's own privacy policy applies.
Categories of information we collect
We gather two kinds of data. Technical information reaches us automatically when you load a page: your IP address, browser type, operating system, the page you came from, and which sections you view. Information you provide directly includes anything you type into a contact form – typically your name, email address and the content of your message.
We do not collect payment details, identity documents or account credentials. Those belong to the operator if you register with them, not to us.
Lawful basis for processing
We process technical data under our legitimate interest in understanding how visitors use the site, so we can improve navigation and content. When you submit a contact form, we rely on your consent – you chose to send us your details, and we use them only to answer your question. Marketing cookies require your explicit consent via the banner that appears on your first visit.
How we use your information
Technical logs help us spot broken links, slow-loading pages and popular content. Contact-form submissions go to our editorial inbox ([email protected]) so we can reply to your question – we do not add you to a mailing list without a separate opt-in. Analytics data, stripped of personally identifying detail where possible, tells us which topics deserve more coverage and which devices most readers use.
Sharing with third parties
We share data with processors and service providers who help us run the site. Google Analytics receives anonymised traffic data to generate visit reports. Our hosting provider stores server logs as part of normal operation. Advertising partners may place cookies if you consent to marketing – those partners process data under their own terms, not ours. We never sell your data to brokers, data miners or third-party marketers.
We may disclose information if required by law – a court order, regulatory investigation or credible legal demand – but only the minimum necessary to comply.
Your rights under UK GDPR
The UK General Data Protection Regulation and Data Protection Act 2018 give you control over your personal information. You have the right to:
- Access – request a copy of the data we hold about you.
- Rectification – ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Erasure – request deletion of your data when we no longer need it for the purpose we collected it.
- Restriction – ask us to pause processing while you challenge its accuracy or lawfulness.
- Portability – receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format and send it to another controller.
- Objection – object to processing based on legitimate interest, or to direct marketing at any time.
- Withdraw consent – if processing relies on consent (such as marketing cookies), you can revoke it without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
Exercising your rights
Email [email protected] with your request. We aim to respond within one month; complex requests may take two months, and we will tell you if an extension applies. We do not charge a fee unless your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's supervisory authority for data protection. Visit ico.org.uk or call their helpline on 0303 123 1113.
How long we keep your data
Server logs and analytics summaries are retained for up to 26 months, then aggregated or deleted. Contact-form submissions stay in our inbox until your query is resolved, usually a few weeks, then archived for twelve months in case you follow up. Marketing-cookie consent records are kept for as long as the cookies themselves remain active, typically thirteen months, so we do not ask you again every visit.
Protection of minors
This site covers gambling services restricted to adults aged 18 and over (18+). We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under eighteen. If you are a parent and believe your child has sent us personal data, contact [email protected] and we will delete it promptly.
Changes to this privacy notice
We update this notice when our practices change or new regulations take effect. The current version is dated below. Material changes – such as a new data-sharing arrangement or a change of legal basis – will be flagged at the top of the page for thirty days after publication. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms.
