Who we are
This privacy policy covers the website bestnewbettingsites.co.uk. The data controller responsible for personal data processed through this website is:
Frank Allen 71-75 Shelton Street Covent Garden London WC2H 9JQ United Kingdom
Email: [email protected]
We process personal data in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Any questions about this policy or about your data can be sent to the email address above.
What this website does and does not collect
The site is a free information resource comparing new UK licensed bookmakers. It is built to work without collecting personal data about the people who read it. In practical terms that means:
- there are no user accounts, logins or member areas
- there is no newsletter and no mailing list
- there is no contact form; contact is by email only
- no analytics or visitor statistics tools are installed
- no advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels are set
Because of this, the personal data we handle is limited to the categories described below.
Cookies and local storage
The website does not set analytics cookies or advertising cookies. When you make a choice in the cookie notice, your browser stores that choice in a localStorage entry on your own device so that the notice does not reappear on every page. This entry contains only your cookie choice. It is not sent to us, it does not identify you, and you can remove it at any time by clearing your browser’s site data. Storing it is strictly necessary to remember the preference you set.
Server logs kept by our hosting provider
Like almost every website, this site runs on servers operated by a hosting provider. When your browser requests a page, the server records basic technical information in its logs: your IP address, your browser’s user agent string, the page requested and the date and time of the request. These logs exist to keep the website secure and working, for example to detect and block abusive traffic or to diagnose faults.
The lawful basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in operating a secure and reliable website. Server logs are kept for a short period only and are then deleted or overwritten in the normal course of operation. We do not use them to build profiles of visitors, and we do not combine them with other data.
Outbound offer links
When you click a link to a bookmaker, it first passes through a redirect page on this site whose address begins with /go/. The redirect page sends you on to the operator’s website. Apart from the ordinary server log entry for that request, we do not record who clicked which link. Once you reach the bookmaker’s site, that company becomes responsible for any personal data you give it, and its own privacy policy and terms apply. We encourage you to read them before opening an account.
Emails you send us
If you email [email protected], we receive your email address, your name if you include it, and whatever you choose to write. We use this only to read and reply to your message, for example when you report an outdated offer or a wrong licence detail. The lawful basis is our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries. We keep correspondence for as long as needed to deal with it and then delete it, unless we need to keep it longer to handle a dispute or comply with a legal obligation.
Who we share data with
We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it with advertisers or bookmakers. The only third party that processes data on our behalf is the hosting provider described above, which acts under its own data protection obligations. We may disclose information where the law requires it, for example in response to a valid request from a court or a regulator.
International transfers
We do not intend to transfer personal data outside the United Kingdom. If that changes, we will update this policy to say where the data goes and which safeguards protect it.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the following rights over your personal data:
- Access: to ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Rectification: to have inaccurate data corrected or incomplete data completed
- Erasure: to ask us to delete your data where there is no good reason to keep it
- Restriction: to ask us to limit how we use your data in certain circumstances
- Objection: to object to processing based on our legitimate interests
- Portability: to receive data you gave us in a structured, commonly used format
To use any of these rights, email [email protected]. We may ask you to confirm your identity before acting on a request. We will reply within one month, which UK GDPR allows us to extend in some cases, and there is normally no fee.
Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, please tell us first so we can try to put it right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK supervisory authority for data protection, at ico.org.uk.
Children
The website is intended for adults aged 18 and over, as it covers gambling, which is restricted to adults in Great Britain. We do not knowingly process personal data about children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the website or the law changes. The current version is always published on this page. If we ever introduce something that changes how personal data is processed, such as a new tool or service, we will update this policy before it goes live. You can find more about the site in our terms of use, and our contact page explains how to reach the editorial team. To return to the comparison, visit the homepage.

Does this website use tracking or analytics cookies?
No. The site sets no analytics cookies and no advertising cookies. The only thing stored on your device is a browser localStorage entry that remembers your cookie choice.
Do I need an account to use the site?
No. There are no user accounts, logins or newsletter sign-ups, so we do not hold profile data about visitors.
What happens to my data when I click an offer link?
Offer links pass through a /go/ redirect page on this site and then send you to the bookmaker. Once you arrive there, the bookmaker's own privacy policy applies to anything you do on its site.
How do I ask for a copy of my data?
Email [email protected] with your request. If we hold any personal data about you, usually only an email you sent us, we will respond within the time allowed by UK GDPR.
Who can I complain to if I am unhappy with how my data is handled?
You can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK data protection regulator, at ico.org.uk. We would appreciate the chance to resolve your concern first, but you do not have to contact us before going to the ICO.
Is my data sent outside the UK?
We do not intend to transfer personal data outside the UK. If that changes, this policy will be updated to explain the transfer and the safeguards in place.
