This privacy policy explains how Gambloria — the independent information portal at gambloria.com.de — collects, uses and protects your personal data. It applies to this portal only and governs what we, as the data controller for this site, do with information you share with us or that we observe when you visit. It does not describe how the operator of the Gambloria platform handles data once you register and play there; for that, consult the operator's own privacy notice directly.
Who is responsible for your data
The data controller for gambloria.com.de is the editorial team that publishes this portal. We are an independent information and marketing website, not a gambling operator. Any questions about how we handle your personal data can be directed to us at [email protected].
What reaches us when you visit
We collect two broad categories of information: data you hand over directly, and data we observe automatically.
Data you provide: If you contact us via our contact form or by email, we receive your name, email address and the contents of your message. We use this solely to respond to your enquiry and do not add you to any mailing list without your explicit consent.
Data we observe automatically: When you browse this site, our hosting infrastructure and analytics tools collect standard technical data — your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and time spent on each page. This data is collected in aggregate and is used to understand how readers use the site so we can improve it. It is not linked to your identity unless you have separately provided your details to us.
Cookies and similar technologies: We use cookies to support the technical operation of the site and to gather analytics data. For full details of which cookies are set, their purposes and how to manage them, please see our cookie policy.
Purposes of processing and lawful basis
We process your personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes. The table below summarises each purpose and the lawful basis we rely on under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
| Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Responding to contact-form enquiries and emails | Legitimate interests (responding to a direct request) |
| Site analytics and performance monitoring | Legitimate interests (improving the portal) / Consent where required by cookie law |
| Marketing cookies and advertising personalisation | Consent |
| Compliance with legal obligations | Legal obligation |
We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
Who else sees your data
We do not sell your personal data to any third party. We do share it, in limited circumstances, with the following categories of processor:
- Analytics providers – to help us understand site traffic and reader behaviour. These providers act as data processors under contractual terms that restrict their use of the data.
- Advertising networks – where you have consented to marketing cookies, aggregate or pseudonymous data may reach advertising partners to support the relevance of any ads displayed.
- Hosting and infrastructure providers – the companies that store and serve this website's files will necessarily handle technical data as part of that service.
Where any of these providers are based outside the UK, we take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place — for example, Standard Contractual Clauses approved for use under UK GDPR.
Your rights under UK GDPR
The UK GDPR gives you a set of rights over your personal data. You can exercise any of them by writing to us at [email protected]. We will respond within one calendar month.
- Right of access – you may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Right to rectification – if any data we hold is inaccurate or incomplete, you can ask us to correct it.
- Right to erasure – in certain circumstances you may ask us to delete your personal data.
- Right to restrict processing – you can ask us to pause processing while a dispute about accuracy or lawful basis is resolved.
- Right to data portability – where processing is based on your consent or on a contract, you may request your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
- Right to object – you may object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing.
- Right to withdraw consent – where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before it.
If you are not satisfied with how we have handled your data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK supervisory authority: the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), reachable at ico.org.uk.
How long we keep your data
Contact-form submissions and email correspondence are kept for as long as is reasonably necessary to address your enquiry and for a short period thereafter in case of follow-up, after which they are deleted. Analytics data is retained in aggregated or pseudonymous form for a rolling period consistent with our analytics provider's own retention settings; we do not retain identified technical records beyond what is needed for operational purposes.
Protection of minors
This portal covers a gambling product and is intended strictly for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted data through this site, please contact us at [email protected] and we will delete it promptly. 18+ only.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, technology or the way this site operates. Material changes will be noted at the top of this page with a revised date. Continued use of gambloria.com.de after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. If you have questions about any change, write to us at [email protected].
