How This SpinFin Information Site Handles Your Personal Data
Effective from 16 October 2026.
This policy covers the independent information site about SpinFin Casino written for readers in the United Kingdom. It does not cover SpinFin itself. A reader who registers at the casino accepts the casino’s own terms and privacy policy there, and those documents govern the data SpinFin holds.
Who decides what happens to your data
The editorial team behind this site is the controller of the personal data described below. The site has no accounts, no registration, no payment form and no comment box, so it holds far less data than a casino would. Every privacy request goes to [email protected].
What is collected, why and on what basis
| Data | When it arises | Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| E-mail address and the content of your message | You write to the contact address | To read the message, answer it and check a reported correction | Legitimate interest in running the site and answering readers |
| IP address, browser type, device type and pages viewed | Automatically when a page loads | To deliver the page, keep it secure and see which topics readers use | Legitimate interest in a working and secure site |
| Cookie preferences | You choose them in the cookie notice | To remember the choice you made | Consent for non-essential cookies; legitimate interest for essential ones |
No other personal data is requested. The site does not ask for date of birth, address, identity documents or payment details, and a reader should never send them. Such details belong only in the casino’s own registration and verification steps.
What the site does not do with your data
There is no automated decision-making that has legal or similarly significant effects on a reader. The site does not match visitors against casino account records, because it has no access to any. It does not collect special-category data, and a reader who volunteers such information in a message should expect it to be deleted rather than used.
Cookies
Essential cookies keep the site working and remember a cookie choice. Non-essential cookies, such as those used for anonymous visit statistics, are set only after you accept them in the cookie notice, and a refusal does not limit access to any page. A browser can delete or block cookies at any time. Clearing them also removes the stored choice, so the notice appears again on the next visit.
Who receives data
Data is seen only by the editorial team and by the service providers that host the site and supply its statistics or e-mail. These providers act on the team’s instructions. Personal data is not sold and is not used to build advertising profiles. If a casino link is followed, SpinFin’s own pages may set their own cookies and collect their own data; this policy does not describe them.
Transfers outside the UK
Some providers may process data outside the United Kingdom. Where that happens, the transfer relies on a safeguard recognised in UK data-protection law, such as the UK addendum to standard contractual clauses or an adequacy decision.
How long data is kept
- E-mail correspondence is kept for as long as it takes to answer and to confirm any correction, then deleted. A message that leads to a correction may be kept for as long as needed to record the change.
- Technical log data is kept for a short rolling period needed for security and fault finding.
- Cookie choices last until you change them or clear your browser.
Your rights
Under UK data-protection law you can ask to:
- see the personal data held about you;
- have inaccurate data corrected;
- have data deleted where there is no remaining reason to keep it;
- restrict how data is used while a dispute is settled;
- receive data you provided in a portable format;
- object to processing based on legitimate interest;
- withdraw consent to non-essential cookies at any time, without affecting earlier use.
Send the request to the contact address and say which right you are using. Identity may need to be confirmed before data is released, to protect the person it belongs to. A reply is normally given within one month of a clear request.
Complaints to the regulator
If you are unhappy with how a request was handled, you may complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK data-protection authority, at ico.org.uk. You may raise it with the editorial team first, but you are not required to.
Readers under 18
The site is written for adults. The service is for players aged 18 and above, and this site is not directed at anyone younger. If a message from a minor is identified, it is deleted.
Messages about problem gambling
A reader may mention gambling difficulties when writing in. The team will read the message for the question it contains, will not pass it on to a casino, and will point to the free support routes on the responsible gambling page. Please do not include more personal detail than you are comfortable sending by e-mail.
Security
Pages are delivered over an encrypted connection, and access to the site’s administration and mailbox is limited to the editorial team. No system is risk free, so please keep any message to what is needed.
Changes to this policy
When the policy changes, the effective date at the top is updated. A change that affects how existing data is used will be made visible on the site before it applies.
