Non GamStop Guide UK Your guide to casinos not on GamStop

Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information tophat-musical.com, the home of Non GamStop Guide UK, handles when you read its pages about casinos that operate outside the GamStop self-exclusion scheme. It follows the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

What the site collects

  • Technical data: IP address, browser type, device and referring page. Server logs record this automatically.
  • Cookie data: small files that remember your preferences and show which guides are read.
  • Messages you send: your name and email address, collected only if you choose to get in touch.

The site does not ask for or store account registrations, payment details or records of your gambling activity.

Why it is used

Information is processed to:

  • keep the site running securely;
  • understand which explanations readers find useful;
  • answer correspondence;
  • attribute visits when you follow an outbound link to an operator.

The lawful basis is legitimate interests. For non-essential cookies, the lawful basis is your consent.

Outbound links to operators

Some links point to third-party casinos and may carry tracking parameters. Once you land on an operator's site, its own privacy policy and terms apply. Read them before depositing. Offshore licensing bodies may set different data-protection standards from those expected of UK Gambling Commission licensees.

Retention and sharing

Log data is kept only as long as needed for security and analysis. Emails are deleted once a query is resolved. Data is never sold. It may be shared with hosting and analytics providers acting on the site's instructions, or where the law requires disclosure.

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct, erase or restrict your data, and you can object to its processing. You can withdraw cookie consent at any time through your browser settings. If you are unhappy with how your data is handled, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Changes

This policy may be revised as the site evolves. The version published on this page is always the current one.
