Scope of this privacy notice
This privacy policy explains how beadsneeds.co.uk – an independent information portal about Superspin – collects, uses and protects your personal data when you visit this site. We are not the casino operator itself. Superspin runs its own platform with its own privacy practices; this notice covers only what happens on our review portal, not what the operator does once you register or deposit with them.
We take your privacy seriously and handle all personal information in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. You must be 18 or over (18+) to use this site.
Who controls your data
The data controller for beadsneeds.co.uk is the editorial team operating this domain. You can reach us at [email protected] with any questions about how we handle your information or to exercise your rights under UK data protection law.
Categories of information we collect
We gather two kinds of data when you visit beadsneeds.co.uk:
- Technical data collected automatically – your IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, time spent on each page, and clickstream data. This helps us understand how the site is used and where we can improve it.
- Information you provide directly – when you fill in our contact form or send an email to [email protected], we collect your name, email address and whatever you write in your message.
- Cookies and similar technologies – small text files stored on your device that remember your preferences and track analytics. See our separate Cookie Policy for the full list of what we set and how to manage them.
We do not ask for payment details, identity documents, or any sensitive personal data on this portal. Those categories belong to the operator's own registration and KYC processes, not ours.
Lawful basis for processing
Under UK GDPR, every use of personal data needs a legal ground. Here is ours:
| Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Running the website and delivering content | Legitimate interests – keeping an informational portal running |
| Analytics and site improvement | Consent (via the cookie banner) or legitimate interests for aggregated, anonymised reporting |
| Responding to contact-form messages | Legitimate interests – answering the questions you send us |
| Compliance with legal obligations | Legal obligation |
Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time through your browser settings or by contacting us. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before you withdrew it.
Sharing your data with third parties
We share certain data with service providers and technology partners to keep beadsneeds.co.uk running:
- Hosting provider – stores the site's files and serves pages to your browser. Technical logs such as IP addresses and access times pass through their infrastructure.
- Analytics platforms – aggregate and anonymise visitor behaviour so we can see which pages are read, where people drop off, and which devices are most common. We configure these tools to respect privacy: IP addresses are masked and no personally identifiable data leaves our control.
- Content delivery networks (CDNs) – cache images, scripts and stylesheets closer to your location for faster page loads.
These processors operate under contract and handle data only as we instruct them. We never sell your personal information to third parties, and we do not pass contact details to marketing lists or data brokers.
Some embedded content – YouTube videos, social-media widgets – may set their own cookies when you interact with them. Those third parties have their own privacy policies; we recommend reading them if you use the embedded features.
International data transfers
Our hosting and analytics providers may process data in countries outside the United Kingdom. Where that happens, we rely on adequacy decisions recognised under UK law (such as the EU adequacy decision) or standard contractual clauses approved by the Information Commissioner's Office. Your data remains protected to UK GDPR standards even when processed abroad.
How long we keep your data
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined above:
- Server logs and analytics data – up to 26 months, then automatically purged.
- Contact-form submissions – we delete the message and your email address within 12 months of the last exchange, unless ongoing correspondence or a legal obligation requires us to keep it longer.
- Cookies – session cookies expire when you close your browser; persistent cookies last up to two years, depending on the type. You can delete them at any time.
Once the retention period ends, we either delete the data or anonymise it so it can no longer identify you.
Your rights under UK GDPR
UK data protection law gives you the following rights over your personal information:
- Right of access – ask us what data we hold about you and receive a copy of it, free of charge.
- Right to rectification – correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Right to erasure – request deletion of your data when it is no longer needed, you withdraw consent, or there is no lawful basis for keeping it.
- Right to restriction – ask us to pause processing while we investigate a dispute or verify accuracy.
- Right to data portability – receive your data in a structured, commonly used format and transmit it to another controller, where technically feasible.
- Right to object – stop processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing. We will comply unless we have compelling grounds to continue.
- Right to withdraw consent – where we rely on consent (e.g. analytics cookies), you can revoke it without affecting prior processing.
How to exercise your rights
Send any request to [email protected] with "Data Subject Request" in the subject line. Include enough detail for us to locate your information – the email address you used to contact us, or the approximate dates you visited the site. We will respond within one month, though complex requests may take up to three months with an explanation for the delay.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection regulator, if you believe we have mishandled your personal data. Visit ico.org.uk for guidance on making a complaint.
Protection of minors
This site is intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you are a parent or guardian and discover that your child has sent us information, contact [email protected] and we will delete it promptly.
Gambling content is not suitable for minors. If you share a device with someone under 18, consider using parental-control software such as Net Nanny or Qustodio to restrict access to casino-related websites.
Security measures
We use industry-standard safeguards to protect your data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction:
- HTTPS encryption for all pages, so data in transit cannot be intercepted.
- Access controls limiting who on our team can view contact submissions.
- Regular software updates to patch known vulnerabilities.
- Secure hosting infrastructure with firewall protection and intrusion detection.
No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take every reasonable step to protect the information you entrust to us.
Changes to this privacy policy
We may update this notice from time to time to reflect new practices, legal requirements, or changes to our services. When we make significant changes, we will post the updated version on this page with a revised "last updated" date at the bottom. Continued use of beadsneeds.co.uk after an update means you accept the revised terms.
