The platform and all associated services are intended exclusively for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. Access by minors is strictly prohibited in accordance with United Kingdom gambling law.

Age Verification

Whilst all reasonable steps are taken to verify the age and identity of users during the registration process, it is not always possible to confirm a user’s age without the submission of appropriate identity documents.

A parent or legal guardian who believes that their child has registered on the platform or submitted personal information may contact the customer support team to request the review and deletion of that data. Such requests will be treated with urgency and handled in accordance with UK data protection law.

International Transfers of Personal Data

The platform operates in conjunction with a number of partners and service providers who may be located outside the United Kingdom. As a result, personal data may on occasion be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries other than the United Kingdom.

Basis for International Transfers

By registering an account and using the services, users acknowledge and consent to the potential transfer of their personal information to jurisdictions where the platform’s partners operate. Such transfers are carried out only where necessary for the delivery of services and fulfilment of contractual or legal obligations.

Data Protection Standards Abroad

All third parties and partner organisations that receive or process personal data on behalf of the platform are required to maintain appropriate confidentiality and security standards. Where data is transferred to countries not recognised as providing an adequate level of data protection under UK law, suitable safeguards are put in place, including:

  • Standard contractual clauses approved by the relevant UK authority
  • Data processing agreements that impose equivalent obligations on recipients
  • Assessment of the recipient’s data protection framework prior to transfer

Users may contact the platform to request further information about the specific safeguards applied to any international data transfer.
