Privacy notice
This notice governs personal data processed in connection with the Ladbrokes Casino Desk publication hosted at this domain. It is addressed chiefly to individuals in the United Kingdom who read our articles, email the desk or interact with cookie banners. It is not the Entain group privacy statement that applies when you register a gambling account, upload documents or receive direct marketing from Ladbrokes itself.
Controller identity and representative
The organisation operating this site acts as controller for processing described below. Contact routes appear on the Contact page. Where we appoint a data-protection officer or EU/UK representative for cross-border matters, we will publish those details alongside this notice when relevant.
Categories of personal data
Technical data may include IP address, coarse location derived from network information, device type, browser version, operating system signals, timestamps and pages viewed. Communication data includes email addresses, message bodies and attachments you choose to send. We do not intentionally collect special-category data; if you volunteer health information in an email, we will minimise retention and use it only to respond supportively or as law requires.
Purposes and lawful bases
We process technical data under legitimate interests to secure the site, maintain performance and understand aggregated readership. We process correspondence to take steps at your request, perform any contract formed through your enquiry or pursue legitimate interests in correcting the public record. Where consent is the appropriate basis — notably some non-essential cookies — we will obtain it separately and you may withdraw it without affecting lawful processing on other grounds.
Analytics and measurement boundaries
We may use privacy-conscious analytics to see which topics resonate. Configuration aims to reduce pseudonymous profiling: IP truncation, aggregated reporting and avoidance of cross-site tracking where feasible. If a vendor changes defaults in a way that increases risk, we re-evaluate the relationship.
Disclosures to third parties
Hosting companies, email providers, security scanners and backup services may access data strictly as processors. We do not sell personal information. We may disclose information when required by court order, subpoena or regulatory demand, or to protect rights, safety and integrity of readers and staff.
Retention schedule
Security logs typically expire on a rolling window measured in weeks or months depending on threat environment. Email may be archived longer when it documents a complaint chain or legal issue. When retention ends, we delete or irreversibly anonymise records unless a longer statutory period applies.
Your UK GDPR rights
You may request confirmation of processing, access to personal data, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection to certain legitimate-interest processing and data portability where technically feasible. Automated decision-making including profiling does not occur on this site in any meaningful sense. If you disagree with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office.
Children
Content discusses adult-only gambling. We do not market to minors and will delete correspondence that appears to originate from children once we become aware.
Updates
Material changes to this notice will be reflected by revising the “last updated” line and, where the change is substantial, a short highlight near the top of the page for a reasonable period.
