3. Why We Collect Your Data and Our Legal Bases
- Account management (Contractual necessity): We need your identity and contact data to create and maintain your account and to provide our services.
- KYC and AML checks (Legal obligation): UK law and our Gambling Commission licence require us to verify your identity and carry out anti-money-laundering checks before processing payments.
- Processing payments (Contractual necessity): We use your payment data to handle deposits and withdrawals, including same-day withdrawals where applicable.

4. How Long We Keep Your Data
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active and for five years after account closure, in line with our AML and regulatory obligations. Where a legal obligation requires a longer retention period, we will comply with that requirement. Marketing preferences are reviewed annually.
