5. How We Share Your Data

We may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients:

Service Providers: We work with third-party service providers who help us operate, provide, and improve our website. These include hosting providers, security services, and analytics providers (e.g., Yandex.Metrica). These providers are contractually bound to process your data only on our instructions and to implement appropriate security measures.
The Game Provider (Pragmatic Play): While playing the "Sweet Bonanza Super Scatter" demo, certain technical and usage data related to game interaction may be shared with Pragmatic Play to ensure the game functions correctly, for performance monitoring, and for their own product improvement. This typically involves anonymised or aggregated data, but may include IP addresses for technical delivery.
Casino Operators (When you leave our site): Our website serves as an informational portal. If you choose to click on links that lead to third-party online casinos where you can play "Sweet Bonanza Super Scatter" for real money, you will be subject to their privacy policies and terms. We do not share your personal data directly with these operators unless you initiate that interaction on their sites.
Affiliate Partners: This site may contain affiliate links. If you click on such a link and subsequently register or make a deposit at a linked casino, we may receive a commission. While this involves tracking (e.g., through cookies set by the affiliate network), we do not share your personal data directly with these affiliate partners. Any data processing on their end is governed by their respective privacy policies. We are transparent about our participation in affiliate programs in line with ASA and FTC guidelines.
Regulators and Law Enforcement: We may disclose your personal data if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or government agency, including the UK Gambling Commission or ICO).
Potential Buyers/Investors: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity. We would ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.

We ensure that all third parties respect the security of your personal data and treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

6. International Data Transfers

We primarily store and process your data within the European Economic Area (EEA) and the UK. However, some of our service providers, including Yandex.Metrica, may process data outside these regions.

Yandex.Metrica Specifics

We use Yandex.Metrica, a web analytics service provided by Yandex Oy, for statistical analysis of website usage. Yandex.Metrica processes data that may be stored on servers located in Russia.

Transparency: We want to be fully transparent about this. The European Commission has not issued an adequacy decision for data transfers to Russia, meaning Russia is not considered to offer the same level of data protection as the UK or EEA.

Safeguards: To mitigate this, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission, which provide contractual obligations for data protection and security. We also implement additional technical and organisational measures where possible.

Data Processed: Yandex.Metrica primarily collects anonymised or pseudonymised data such as IP address (truncated), device information, browser type, pages visited, and session duration. This data helps us understand website traffic and user behaviour.

Your Choice: If you wish to opt-out of Yandex.Metrica's data collection, you can install the Yandex.Metrica Blocker browser extension or adjust your browser settings to block cookies. More information is available on Yandex's privacy policy.

By using our website, you acknowledge and agree to the transfer of your data to Russia under these conditions and safeguards.

7. Data Security

We have implemented robust security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered, or disclosed. These measures include:

Encryption: Data is encrypted both in transit (using SSL/TLS) and at rest where appropriate.
Access Controls: Strict access controls are in place to ensure that only authorised personnel have access to personal data, and only when necessary for their job functions.
Firewalls and Intrusion Detection: We use firewalls and intrusion detection systems to monitor and protect our network from external threats.
Regular Audits: We conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and address potential weaknesses.
Staff Training: Our staff receive regular training on data protection best practices and security awareness.

Despite these measures, no system is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information. In the event of a data breach, we have procedures in place to address it promptly, including notification to you and the relevant supervisory authority (e.g., ICO) where legally required.

8. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

For example, website analytics data (e.g., via Yandex.Metrica) is typically retained for a period of up to 5 years, or as determined by the service provider's standard retention policies, unless a shorter period is requested. Communication data is retained for as long as necessary to address your query and for a reasonable period thereafter for record-keeping purposes.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights).
