1. Who We Are

goldukbettinglist.com is an independent comparison and review website focused on UKGC-licensed online betting operators. We are the data controller for personal data collected through this site. We are not a bookmaker, do not accept bets, and have no direct commercial relationship with the operators we review beyond standard affiliate arrangements.

  • Browser type, version, device type, and operating system
  • Pages visited, time on page, scroll depth, and navigation paths
  • Cookie consent status and preference timestamps

6. Data Retention
