Legal Bases for Processing
Lsrg.org.uk processes personal data in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. The legal bases we rely upon include: consent (Article 6(1)(a)) for optional cookies, newsletters, and marketing communications — which you may withdraw at any time; legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)) for analytics, security monitoring, and operating our affiliate-funded review platform, where we have assessed that our interests do not override your fundamental rights; and legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c)) where processing is required to comply with applicable law.
Third Parties & Affiliate Links
Lsrg.org.uk contains affiliate links to licensed gambling operators, including Hotstreak Casino. When you click these links, you may be directed to third-party websites that have their own privacy policies, for which we are not responsible. We receive a commission when users register or deposit via our referral links; this does not affect the independence of our reviews. We use third-party analytics providers (such as Google Analytics) to help us understand how visitors use lsrg.org.uk. These providers may process data outside the UK under standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards.
