This privacy policy explains how the Casinolab review portal collects, uses and protects your personal information when you visit sjwines.co.uk. We are an independent information and marketing site – we do not operate the casino itself, and this notice covers only what happens on our own platform.
Who is responsible for your data
The data controller for sjwines.co.uk is the editorial team operating this review portal. You can reach us at [email protected] with any questions about how your information is handled. This policy does not cover what Casinolab the operator collects once you register on its own platform – that is governed by the operator's own privacy notice, which you should read separately.
What information we collect
We gather two kinds of data when you use this site. Technical information arrives automatically: your IP address, browser type, device details, pages you visit and how long you stay. Information you provide comes through contact forms or email – your name, email address and the content of your message when you write to us.
We do not collect payment details, identity documents or account credentials. Those belong to the operator's own systems if you choose to register there, and we have no access to them.
Cookies and tracking
This site uses cookies to remember your preferences and to measure how the portal is used. Analytics cookies (such as those set by Google Analytics) help us understand which pages are read most and where improvements are needed. Marketing cookies may be placed by third-party advertising partners to show relevant offers. You can manage cookie settings through your browser or via our cookie-consent banner – see our separate Cookie Policy for full details.
Why we process your data and the lawful basis
We rely on legitimate interests to operate the review portal, improve its content and answer your questions – provided those interests do not override your own rights. Where we use analytics or marketing cookies, we seek your consent through the banner you see on your first visit. If you submit a contact form, we process your message to respond – that is performance of our service. No data is ever used in ways that conflict with UK data-protection law.
Who else sees your information
We share data with a small number of trusted processors to keep the site running:
- Hosting providers store the site's files and serve pages to your browser.
- Analytics platforms (Google Analytics or similar) aggregate usage statistics – we see trends, not individual identities.
- Advertising partners may place cookies to deliver relevant offers, but we do not sell lists of email addresses or personally identifiable details to third parties.
Any processor handling your data does so under a contract requiring them to meet the same protection standards we follow. Data may be transferred outside the UK where a processor operates internationally, but only to countries recognised as offering adequate protection or under appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
Your rights under UK GDPR
You have the following rights regarding your personal information:
| Right | What it means |
|---|---|
| Access | Request a copy of the data we hold about you. |
| Rectification | Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information. |
| Erasure | Request deletion of your data where no legal obligation requires us to keep it. |
| Restriction | Limit how we process your data while a dispute is resolved. |
| Portability | Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format to transfer elsewhere. |
| Object | Object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing. |
| Withdraw consent | Revoke consent for cookies or marketing at any time – this does not affect processing that already happened. |
How to exercise your rights
Send any request to [email protected] with enough detail for us to identify your enquiry. We aim to respond within one month. There is no charge unless your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive. If you are not satisfied with how we handle your data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's supervisory authority for data protection – visit ico.org.uk or call their helpline on 0303 123 1113.
How long we keep your information
Technical logs and analytics data are retained for up to 26 months, then automatically deleted. Contact-form submissions and email correspondence are kept for as long as needed to answer your question and for a reasonable period afterward in case of follow-up – typically 12 months, unless a legal obligation requires longer retention. Once the retention period expires, records are securely deleted.
Protection of minors
This site is intended for users aged 18 and over (18+). We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under that age. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided us with data, contact [email protected] and we will delete it promptly. Good to know: if a device is shared with a minor, consider using parental-control software such as Net Nanny or Qustodio to restrict access to gambling-related content.
Changes to this privacy policy
We may update this notice from time to time to reflect changes in how the portal operates or in data-protection law. The date at the bottom shows when it was last revised. Significant changes will be highlighted at the top of the page for a reasonable period. Continuing to use sjwines.co.uk after an update means you accept the revised terms.
Contact us
Questions about this privacy policy, requests to exercise your rights, or concerns about how your data is handled should be sent to [email protected]. We will respond as quickly as possible, and always within the timeframes required by UK data-protection law.
