1. Who We Are

This Privacy Policy applies to www.clipart.co.uk ("we", "us", "our"). We operate as an independent editorial and odds-comparison website providing in-depth reviews and market analyses of sportsbooks and betting sites operating outside the GamStop self-exclusion network. Our content is targeted strictly at adult punters in the United Kingdom. We act as the data controller for any personal information collected through this website. If you have any questions regarding how we handle your data, please contact us at [email protected].

2. Data We Collect

We respect your privacy while you research betting platforms. We collect only the absolute minimum data necessary to run the site securely and improve our sportsbook reviews. We never sell your personal data to third-party bookmakers or marketing lists.

Data You Provide Directly

  • Your name and email address when submitting an enquiry via our contact form or subscribing to our betting news updates.
  • The content of any messages or feedback regarding our sportsbook reviews.
  • Any other information you voluntarily share in your direct communications with our editorial team.

Data Collected Automatically

  • Your IP address and approximate geographic location (e.g., country/city) to ensure you are accessing content relevant to your jurisdiction.
  • Browser type, version, and details about your operating system.
  • Analytics data regarding the pages you view (such as specific bookmaker reviews), time spent on page, and your navigation path through the site.
  • Referring URLs (how you found us) and device type (desktop, mobile, tablet).

3. How We Use Your Data

  • To operate, secure, and continuously improve our website and its betting-related content.
  • To respond promptly to enquiries, partnership requests, or editorial feedback submitted through our contact form.
  • To send newsletters containing odds analysis, new non GamStop bookmaker alerts, or regulatory updates (only if you have explicitly opted in).
  • To analyse aggregated site traffic to understand which sportsbooks and betting topics our readers find most useful.
  • To detect and prevent fraudulent activity, spam, or malicious behaviour on our servers.
  • To comply with all relevant legal obligations under UK law.

4. Cookies & Tracking

We use essential cookies to maintain core site functionality and security. We also use analytics cookies via Google Analytics (using anonymised, aggregated data) to understand user behaviour, and affiliate tracking cookies when you click on referral links to the betting sites we review. You retain full control and can manage or disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings at any time.

5. Third Parties & Affiliates

As an independent review portal, we maintain affiliate relationships with some of the offshore sportsbooks featured on this site. When you click a referral link and register with a bookmaker, we may receive a commission. This commercial mechanism does not influence our editorial independence, our ratings of their odds margins, or the actual odds you receive as a punter. We never share your personal data (like your name or email) with our affiliate partners. Trusted third-party infrastructure services we use include Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Cloudflare.

6. Data Retention

  • Contact form submissions: Retained securely for up to 12 months for record-keeping and follow-ups.
  • Newsletter subscriber data: Retained until you choose to unsubscribe from our updates.
  • Analytics data: Retained for 26 months in accordance with Google Analytics default settings before automatic deletion.
  • Server logs: Retained for up to 90 days strictly for security diagnostics and fraud prevention.

7. Your Rights Under UK GDPR

  • Right of Access — You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to Rectification — You may ask us to correct data you believe to be inaccurate or incomplete.
  • Right to Erasure — You may request the deletion of your personal data from our systems.
  • Right to Restrict Processing — You may ask us to temporarily limit how we use your data.
  • Right to Data Portability — You may request your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
  • Right to Object — You may object to data processing that is based on our legitimate interests.
  • Right to Withdraw Consent — Where you have given consent (e.g., for newsletters), you may withdraw it at any time.

To exercise any of these UK GDPR rights, please contact our data team at [email protected]. You also retain the right to lodge a formal complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
