This notice explains how Spinit collects, uses and protects your personal information when you visit spinit-canada.net. We take data protection seriously and comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Who is responsible for your data
The data controller for this portal is the editorial team at spinit-canada.net. We are not affiliated with the casino operator and do not process account, payment or gaming data — those are handled by the operator under their own privacy terms. Our responsibility covers only the information you share directly with us through this site.
What information we collect
We collect two kinds of data: information you provide voluntarily, and technical information gathered automatically.
Information you provide: when you contact us via email at [email protected], we collect your email address, the content of your message, and any other details you choose to include. We store this correspondence to respond to your enquiry and keep a record of our exchange.
Technical information: like most websites, we collect data automatically through cookies and server logs. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, time spent on each page, and the date and time of your visit. We use this information to understand how visitors use the site, identify technical problems, and improve navigation.
Cookies and analytics
We use cookies to remember your preferences and analyse site traffic. Our cookie policy explains what cookies we set, which third-party scripts run on this site, and how to manage them in your browser.
Analytics services process usage data on our behalf to generate reports about site performance. These services may set their own cookies and are governed by their own privacy policies. We do not combine analytics data with personally identifiable information such as your email address.
Purposes and lawful basis
We process your data for the following purposes, each with a lawful basis under UK GDPR:
| Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Responding to contact-form enquiries | Legitimate interests (providing support) |
| Site analytics and performance monitoring | Legitimate interests (improving the site) |
| Advertising and marketing measurement | Consent (via cookie banner) |
| Security and fraud prevention | Legitimate interests (protecting the site) |
Who else sees your data
We share information with third parties only when necessary to operate the site or comply with legal obligations.
Service providers: we use hosting, email, analytics and advertising services that process data on our behalf. These processors are contractually required to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify. They include:
- Cloud hosting providers (server infrastructure and storage)
- Email service providers (contact-form delivery)
- Analytics platforms (Google Analytics or similar)
- Advertising networks (performance measurement, subject to your consent)
Legal requirements: we may disclose information if required by law, court order, or to protect our rights or the safety of others.
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes.
International transfers
Some of our service providers are based outside the UK. Where data is transferred internationally, we ensure adequate safeguards are in place — either through adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, or other mechanisms approved under UK GDPR.
Your rights under UK GDPR
You have the following rights regarding your personal data. To exercise any of them, contact us at [email protected].
- Access: request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Rectification: ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information
- Erasure: request deletion of your data where we no longer have a lawful basis to keep it
- Restriction: ask us to limit how we use your data while a dispute is resolved
- Portability: receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format and transfer it to another controller
- Object: object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing
- Withdraw consent: where processing is based on consent (e.g. marketing cookies), you can withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal
We will respond to requests within one month. If your request is complex or we receive multiple requests, we may extend this by a further two months and will let you know.
Complaints and the supervisory authority
If you believe we have not handled your data properly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's supervisory authority for data protection. You can contact them at ico.org.uk or by phone on 0303 123 1113.
How long we keep your data
We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected:
- Contact-form submissions: kept for up to two years after the last correspondence, then deleted
- Server logs: retained for up to 12 months for security and troubleshooting, then overwritten
- Analytics data: aggregated and anonymised within 26 months
Once the retention period expires, we securely delete or anonymise the data so it can no longer identify you.
Protection of minors
This site is intended for adults aged 18 and over (18+). We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, contact us at [email protected] and we will delete it promptly.
