Privacy

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the limited personal data we process: encrypted storage, access controls and periodic reviews. No system can guarantee perfect security, and we invite responsible disclosure of any issue at editor@ivybet.bet. We will respond to any credible security report within five working days and credit the reporter if they wish.

We collect only what is needed to run a readable website: anonymised traffic analytics (page URL, device type, approximate region), any contact details you volunteer when you e-mail us, and technical server logs that help us debug outages. We do not collect gambling activity or anything tied to an Ivybet account. We do not run any tracker that follows readers across other sites, and we do not attempt to fingerprint devices.

Analytics data helps us decide which pages to update first. Contact details are used only to reply to your message. Server logs are retained for a short period to defend against abuse. We do not sell data and do not share it with the operator.

Statistical reports from the analytics provider are shared internally — never with third parties — and are retained only in aggregated form that cannot be linked back to a single reader.

We may update this notice when the law changes or when we adopt a new tool. Material changes are announced at the top of this page for at least thirty days before they take effect. Previous versions of this notice are available on request from editor@ivybet.bet and we keep them for six years after they are retired.

We use third-party analytics and hosting providers. Each has been reviewed for GDPR compliance. We do not embed social sharing widgets that track visitors by default, and advertising is limited to the operator links we disclose on the How We Earn page.

Our affiliate link to Ivybet carries a tracking code so the operator can attribute a signup to us, but the code does not read any account data. We also do not permit third-party retargeting pixels on our pages.

Under UK GDPR you can request a copy of the data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or request deletion. Write to editor@ivybet.bet with the subject "Data request". We respond within thirty days and ask for a basic identity check for sensitive requests.

You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office if you believe we have mishandled your data; the ICO helpline is 0303 123 1113 and the website is ico.org.uk. We would rather resolve any issue directly and ask you to contact us first.

Analytics data is kept for fourteen months in aggregated form. Correspondence with readers is kept for the lifetime of the conversation plus twelve months unless you ask for earlier deletion. Server logs are rotated after sixty days. Backups are encrypted and rotated monthly.
