1. Scope of This Notice
Slot7Core is an editorial comparison platform. We do not run casino games, process wagering transactions, or manage player balances for third-party operators. This notice covers the information we collect about visitors to our own site, including usage information, messages sent through our contact channels, and data generated when cookie preferences are saved. It does not cover the privacy practices of any operator site you visit after following a link from our pages.
2. Data We Collect
The data we collect depends on how you use the site. If you browse pages without contacting us, we may record technical information such as device type, browser family, approximate geographic region, referring page, on-site navigation, and cookie consent state. If you contact us, we may receive your name, email address, message contents, and any attachments or factual corrections you choose to include. We do not intentionally collect payment details or gambling account credentials through this site.
3. Legal Grounds Under GDPR and UK Data Protection Law
We rely on several lawful bases depending on the activity. Consent may apply when you accept optional cookies or similar technologies. Legitimate interests may apply when we monitor site performance, defend the site from abuse, review editorial accuracy, or understand which comparison content readers engage with most often. Contract is generally relevant only when you contact us and expect a response to a request you initiated. We may also process data where needed to comply with a legal obligation or respond to lawful requests.
4. How We Use Information
We use personal data to operate the site, maintain security, respond to correspondence, document correction requests, improve page structure, and understand how readers use our editorial content. Usage data helps us decide whether our reviews are readable, whether mobile pages perform properly, and which legal or safer-gambling resources are accessed most often. Contact data lets us answer messages and preserve a record of editorial changes. We do not sell personal data as a standalone product.
5. Affiliate Tracking and Third-Party Measurement
Because Slot7Core is an affiliate-supported editorial site, some outbound links may contain tracking parameters that help attribute referrals to partner operators. Those parameters usually identify the referring page or campaign rather than your personal identity by name. Once you leave our domain, the third-party site controls its own tracking environment and privacy terms. We encourage visitors to review those policies carefully before creating any account or submitting sensitive information to an operator.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and related technologies for essential site operation, preference storage, performance review, and limited analytics. For example, we store your cookie-banner choice and age-gate confirmation so those prompts do not reappear every time you load a page. Additional details about categories, controls, and third-party cookie behaviour are described in our separate cookie policy. If you decline optional cookies, core pages should still remain usable for ordinary reading and navigation.
7. Sharing With Service Providers and Other Third Parties
We may share information with providers who help host the site, monitor uptime, manage analytics, support communications, or protect the service from malicious traffic. Those parties process information only as needed to provide their services to us and are expected to handle data under appropriate contractual protections. We may also disclose information when required by law, when defending legal claims, or when necessary to investigate fraudulent, abusive, or harmful activity affecting the site.
8. International Transfers
Some service providers used by online publishers may process data outside the United Kingdom. When personal information is transferred internationally, we seek to use providers that offer suitable safeguards, such as contractual protections or other recognised mechanisms under applicable data protection law. The internet is not limited by national borders, so routine technical processing may involve systems in several locations. We try to keep those arrangements proportionate to the limited editorial purpose of this website.
9. How Long We Retain Data
Retention periods depend on the purpose behind the data. Technical logs may be held for a limited period to maintain security, investigate misuse, or understand performance issues. Contact messages and editorial correction notes may be retained longer if they document changes to published content, complaints, or disclosure questions. Consent records may be kept to show how cookie choices were captured. When data is no longer reasonably required, we seek to delete, anonymise, or minimise it.
10. Your Rights
Depending on your location and the circumstances, you may have rights to request access to personal data, ask for correction of inaccurate information, request deletion, object to certain processing, restrict use, or request portability where the law provides it. Some rights are qualified rather than absolute. For example, we may keep limited records where necessary for legal defence or evidence of editorial dealings. To exercise your rights, contact us and describe the request clearly so we can respond efficiently.
11. Children and Age Policy
Slot7Core is intended only for adults aged 18 and over. The site includes age-gating because our subject matter concerns gambling products that are not suitable for children. We do not knowingly seek or encourage personal data from under-18s. If we learn that personal data from a child has been submitted to us without appropriate authority, we will take reasonable steps to delete it. Parents or guardians who believe this has happened should contact us promptly.
12. Security Measures
No website can promise perfect security, but we use reasonable technical and organisational steps to reduce obvious risks. These may include access controls, limited service-provider permissions, update routines, and abuse monitoring. You should still avoid sending highly sensitive material through ordinary contact forms unless necessary. If you believe our site contains a security issue, tell us with enough detail to review the problem responsibly rather than publishing exploit information publicly before we can assess it.
13. Contact and Policy Updates
If you have a privacy question, a data-rights request, or a concern about this policy, contact us at dataprotection@slot7core.com. We may revise this notice when site features, service providers, legal obligations, or editorial practices change. When that happens, the updated version will appear on this page with the revised publication context reflected in the page itself. Continued use of the site after an update means you have had the opportunity to review the new wording.
