DATA ░ POLICY ░ UK Privacy notice
Privacy Policy
This policy explains how Slote9Nexus collects, uses, stores and shares information when you browse our editorial comparison website. It is written for UK readers and should be read together with our Cookie Policy, Terms & Conditions and Affiliate Disclosure.
Privacy questions can be sent to dataprotection@slote9nexus.com.
This policy applies to website visitors, enquiries and newsletter-style updates if offered.
The site is for adults aged 18 and over and is not intended for minors.
How We Handle Information
1. Who controls your data
For the purposes of UK data protection law, Slote9Nexus is the controller of personal data collected through this website. Because this site is an editorial comparison platform rather than a gambling operator, we do not open gaming accounts, process bets or store payment card details relating to gambling activity. Our role is narrower. It covers publishing content, operating the website, responding to messages and measuring basic site performance so that pages stay readable and useful.
2. The information we collect
We may collect information you submit directly, such as your name, email address and the content of a message if you contact us. We also collect technical data generated during normal browsing, including IP address, browser type, device information, approximate location, referral source, visited pages and timestamps. In some cases, local storage or cookies may record whether you confirmed you are over 18 or whether you accepted or declined optional cookies.
3. How we receive it
Some information comes straight from you when you choose to send it. Other information is generated automatically by the website, server logs, analytics tooling or consent technologies. Affiliate partners may also tell us that a click or registration resulted from a referral link on our site, but they do not send us your gambling history through this process. We use partner feedback mainly to understand whether editorial pages are commercially effective.
4. Why we use personal data
We use information to run the website, keep the age gate and cookie choices working, answer enquiries, prevent abuse, study performance trends and improve page structure. If we publish updates or contact readers who requested a response, we use supplied contact details for that purpose only. Data may also be used to document compliance decisions, investigate suspicious traffic or keep records showing how consent preferences were respected on the site.
5. Lawful bases under UK GDPR
Our lawful bases vary by context. We rely on legitimate interests when we maintain website security, analyse audience behaviour in a proportionate manner and run an editorial business responsibly. We rely on consent where the law requires it, particularly for non-essential cookies or similar tracking technologies. If you contact us, we may process your message because it is necessary to respond to your request. In rare cases, a legal obligation may require us to retain or disclose specific records.
6. Affiliate and analytics sharing
We may share limited technical or referral information with analytics providers, hosting partners, consent management services and affiliate networks that support site operation. That sharing is restricted to what is needed for those services. We do not sell personal data in the ordinary sense of selling a reader list. When affiliate partners confirm a referral, the information is generally tied to a click source or tracking identifier rather than a profile of your broader online behaviour.
7. Cookies and similar tools
Cookies, local storage and closely related technologies help us remember whether you have already confirmed your age and whether a consent banner should stay hidden. Optional analytics cookies may tell us which pages attract attention and where visitors leave the site. The detailed categories, examples and choice controls appear in our Cookie Policy. If you change your preference later, the newer choice will replace the older one for future visits on the same browser.
8. Retention periods
We keep personal data only for as long as it serves the reason it was collected. Contact emails may be stored while a conversation remains active and for a reasonable period afterwards to maintain a record of the exchange. Basic log data may be kept for security, troubleshooting and performance analysis for a shorter operational window. Where law, dispute risk or fraud prevention creates a need to keep records longer, retention may extend until that purpose genuinely ends.
9. International transfers
Some of our service providers may process data outside the UK. When this happens, we take steps intended to keep the transfer lawful and proportionate. Those steps can include using providers in countries with recognised adequacy decisions, relying on approved contractual safeguards or applying supplementary measures where appropriate. International transfer does not mean your information is published openly; it means a service that supports our website may operate infrastructure across more than one jurisdiction.
10. Security approach
No website can promise absolute security, but we aim to use sensible administrative, technical and organisational measures for the scale of this service. Those measures may include access controls, secure hosting, software updates, consent records and restricted internal access to enquiry data. We also try to minimise what we collect in the first place. A site that collects less sensitive information is usually easier to protect than one that stores more than it needs.
11. Your rights
Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you, ask for correction, request erasure, object to certain processing, restrict use, or ask for portability where the law provides it. You may also withdraw consent where processing depends on consent. These rights are not absolute, and we may need more information to verify a request. To exercise them, contact dataprotection@slote9nexus.com with enough detail for us to respond.
12. Children and age policy
Slote9Nexus is intended only for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly target children, and we do not intend to collect personal data from anyone below the age threshold for gambling-related content in the UK. If we discover that a child has submitted personal information to us, we will take steps to delete it where possible. The presence of an age gate does not replace parental supervision; it is simply part of our effort to keep the audience appropriate.
13. Automated decisions and tracking limits
We do not use your data to make legal or similarly significant automated decisions about you. Site analytics may segment traffic, but that activity is aimed at understanding content performance rather than profiling individuals for serious consequences. We do not guarantee recognition of every browser-based “Do Not Track” signal, because standards vary, but we do offer cookie choices through the banner and explain our current practices in plain language here.
14. Changes and complaints
We may update this policy when legal requirements, website features or service providers change. When we do, the revised version will be published on this page with the latest effective date reflected in site files. If you have a privacy concern, please contact us first at dataprotection@slote9nexus.com so we have a chance to address it. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office if you believe your data has been handled unlawfully.
