Privacy Policy – Shotz
This privacy notice explains how Shotz (the information portal operating at shotz-kasino.fi) collects, uses and protects your personal data when you visit our pages. We are not the operator of the gaming platform itself — we publish independent reviews and guidance about it. What follows applies only to this portal's own activities, not to any account you hold with the operator once you register there.
Who controls your data
The data controller for this website is the team behind shotz-kasino.fi. You can reach us at [email protected]. We process personal information in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
What information reaches us
We collect two kinds of data: technical information your browser sends automatically, and details you provide when you contact us.
Technical data includes your IP address, browser type, device identifier, operating system, the pages you view and the time you spend on them. We gather this through server logs and cookies — read our separate Cookie Policy for the full picture.
Contact-form data covers anything you type into our inquiry form or send to our support inbox: your name, email address, and the content of your message. We collect this only when you choose to get in touch.
Why we process it
We use technical data to understand which pages readers find useful, spot broken links, and keep the site running securely. Contact-form data lets us answer your questions and improve the guidance we publish. We do not build individual profiles, and we never sell your information to third parties.
Lawful basis under UK GDPR
Our legal grounds are legitimate interests (operating an informational website, measuring its performance, securing it against misuse) and, where you contact us, consent — you provide your details voluntarily when you send a message.
Who else sees your data
We share technical data with a handful of processors who help us run the site:
- Analytics services — to measure traffic and understand which topics matter most.
- Hosting providers — the servers that deliver these pages sit with a third-party data centre.
- Advertising partners — when you see ads on our pages, those networks may set their own cookies and collect anonymised browsing data. We do not control what they gather; check their own privacy notices for details.
Some of these processors operate outside the UK. Where they do, we rely on adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses approved by the ICO to ensure your data remains protected. We never sell your personal information, and we never pass contact-form submissions to marketing lists without your explicit agreement.
Your rights and how to use them
Under UK GDPR you can:
- Access — ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Rectify — correct anything inaccurate.
- Erase — request deletion, where no legal obligation requires us to keep it.
- Restrict processing — limit what we do with your data while a dispute is resolved.
- Object — oppose processing based on legitimate interests.
- Data portability — receive your information in a machine-readable format.
- Withdraw consent — where consent is our basis, you can revoke it at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, write to [email protected] with enough detail for us to locate your record. We will respond within one month. If you believe we have mishandled your data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data-protection regulator, at ico.org.uk.
How long we keep your information
Technical logs are usually retained for 12 months, then deleted or anonymised. Contact-form messages stay on file for as long as needed to answer your query and resolve any follow-up, then removed. Where a legal obligation or a legitimate dispute requires longer retention, we keep only what is necessary and delete the rest as soon as the reason expires.
Protection of minors
This site is intended for adults aged 18 and over (18+). We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone younger. If you are a parent and discover your child has sent us information, contact [email protected] and we will delete it promptly.
Changes to this notice
We review this privacy policy periodically and update it when our practices change or the law requires it. The date below shows when it was last revised. Significant changes will be flagged at the top of this page for a reasonable period.
