• Email address and telephone number
• Payment information, including bank account or card details

• Provide customer support and manage account-related queries

User Rights Under United Kingdom Law

In accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, users hold the following rights:

Personal data collected by Bet4Star is used only for specified, legitimate purposes. The platform does not process personal information in ways that are incompatible with the reasons for which it was originally gathered.

Purposes of Data Processing

Collected information is used for the following purposes:

• Account management: To create, maintain, and administer user accounts on the platform.
• Transaction processing: To handle deposits, withdrawals, and the settlement of bets in a secure and accurate manner.
• Service improvement: To analyse platform performance, identify technical issues, and enhance the overall user experience.
• Marketing communications: Where users have provided consent, to send promotional offers, updates, and relevant notifications. Users may withdraw consent at any time.
• Analytics: To understand how users interact with the website, which helps inform decisions about platform development and content.
• Regulatory compliance: To fulfil obligations under United Kingdom gambling law, anti-money laundering regulations, and data protection legislation.

Lawful Basis for Processing

All data processing activities carried out by Bet4Star are grounded in one or more of the following lawful bases:

• Consent: Where users have given explicit agreement to a specific use of their data.
• Contractual necessity: Where processing is required to fulfil the terms of the user agreement.
• Legal obligation: Where processing is required to comply with applicable law.
• Legitimate interests: Where Bet4Star has a justifiable reason to process data, provided this does not override user rights.

Bet4Star does not sell personal data to third parties for commercial gain. All processing activities are conducted in a transparent and accountable manner, consistent with the principles set out in the UK GDPR.

Bet4Star provides users with clear procedures for accessing, updating, or requesting the deletion of their personal data.

Accessing Personal Data

Users have the right to request a copy of the personal information held about them at any time. Such requests should be submitted in writing to the Bet4Star data protection team. Responses will be provided within one month of receipt, in line with United Kingdom data protection law. Where requests are complex or numerous, this period may be extended by a further two months, with notification given to the user.

Correcting Personal Data

If a user believes that any personal data held by Bet4Star is inaccurate or out of date, they may request a correction. This can be done by:

• Updating account details directly through the user account settings
• Contacting the customer support team with supporting documentation where required

Requesting Deletion of Personal Data

Users may request that their personal data be deleted where:

• The data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected
• Consent has been withdrawn and no other lawful basis applies
• The data has been processed unlawfully

Please note that certain data may be retained for a defined period in accordance with United Kingdom legal and regulatory requirements, including those relating to gambling records and financial transactions.

Consent to Security and Payment Processing

By registering for and using the Bet4Star platform, users acknowledge and agree that their personal data, including payment information, may be processed by approved third-party payment providers and security verification services. This processing is necessary to facilitate account transactions and to comply with identity verification requirements under United Kingdom regulations. All such providers are bound by appropriate data protection obligations.

Bet4Star is an online gambling platform intended exclusively for individuals aged 18 years and over. The collection or processing of personal data relating to minors is neither intended nor permitted.

Age Verification

Whilst Bet4Star takes all reasonable steps to prevent underage access, the platform cannot independently verify the age of every user without the submission of appropriate identity documents. Users are required to confirm their age during the registration process and may be asked to provide documentary evidence at any time.

Discovery of a Minor’s Account

If it is discovered or reasonably suspected that a user is under the age of 18, Bet4Star will:

• Suspend or close the relevant account without delay
• Cease all processing of personal data associated with that account
• Delete all personal information held in relation to the minor, unless retention is required for legal or regulatory purposes

Parental or Guardian Requests

A parent or legal guardian who believes that a minor has registered on the Bet4Star platform may submit a formal request for the deletion of that individual’s personal data. Such requests should be directed to the Bet4Star data protection team and will be handled promptly and confidentially. Supporting information may be requested to verify the relationship and identity of the requesting party.

Bet4Star operates in partnership with a range of third-party service providers and business partners, some of whom may be located outside the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area. As a result, personal data may in certain circumstances be transferred to and processed in countries other than the United Kingdom.

Transfers Outside the United Kingdom

Where personal data is transferred internationally, Bet4Star takes appropriate steps to ensure that an adequate level of protection is maintained. These steps may include:

• Transferring data only to countries recognised by the United Kingdom as providing an adequate level of data protection
• Implementing standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards approved under United Kingdom law
• Requiring all partner organisations to adhere to data protection standards consistent with those applicable in the United Kingdom

User Consent to International Transfers

By accessing and using the Bet4Star website, users acknowledge that their personal data may be processed outside the United Kingdom. This acknowledgement forms part of the user’s agreement to this Privacy Policy.

Confidentiality Obligations of Partners

All third-party partners and service providers engaged by Bet4Star are required to maintain the confidentiality and security of any personal data they handle. Contractual arrangements with such parties include obligations to:

• Process data only for the purposes specified by Bet4Star
• Implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures
• Notify Bet4Star promptly in the event of a data breach or security incident
