Data Security and Retention
Billybets employs industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. We use SSL encryption technology to secure data transmission between your device and our servers, ensuring that sensitive information remains confidential during communication. Our systems are protected by firewalls, intrusion detection software, and regular security audits conducted by independent cybersecurity experts. Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who require the information to perform their job functions, and all staff members receive regular training on data protection principles. We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active and for a period thereafter as required by regulatory obligations and legal requirements. Financial transaction records are maintained for seven years following account closure to comply with anti-money laundering regulations and tax legislation. Gameplay history relevant to safe gaming assessments may be retained for extended periods to support responsible gambling initiatives. Once the retention period expires, your data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our data disposal procedures. You have the right to request deletion of your personal information subject to our legal and regulatory obligations.
Your Rights and Control
Under data protection legislation, you possess several rights regarding your personal information held by Billybets. You can request access to your data to understand what information we process and how we use it. If any details are inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request corrections or updates to ensure our records remain current. In certain circumstances, you may request deletion of your personal data, though this right is subject to our legal obligations to retain specific records for regulatory compliance. You can object to processing activities based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing communications, by updating your preferences in your account settings or contacting our data protection officer. The right to data portability allows you to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used format for transfer to another service provider. If you believe we have processed your data unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissionerβs Office, the UK supervisory authority for data protection matters.
