1. Who is Controlling and Processing your Personal Data?

1.1 Easyodds.com Ltd (company number 03932283 registered in the United Kingdom, hereafter “Easyodds”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is a marketing service and information provider - it is not an online or betting company. The principal online site owned by Easyodds, namely https://easyodds.com as well as other sites that we may operate from time to time (hereafter “sites”), does not accept wagers or trades directly. Rather, they provide users with betting and trading related information and connections to betting and trading operators who in turn accept wagers and trades.

1.2 We may collect your personal data to help us understand your needs and this guides the way in which we interact and communicate with you about our trusted operators’ (subject to your consent) products and services.

1.3 We are registered with the ICO office (The Information Commissioner's Office in the United Kingdom) as a Data Controller and Data Processor under the Trading Name Easyodds.com Ltd, with Registration Number ZB254666. This privacy policy applies to all sites operated by us.

2. Our Commitment to Protecting your Personal Data

2.1 We ensure policies and procedures are in place to protect the data you provide when registering to our sites.

2.2 We work within the guidelines and advice provided by and made available by the Information Commissioner's Office, the regulator of the Data Protection Act 2018 and abide by the ICO’s requirements.

2.3 We seek to comply with the Data Protection Act 2018, the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, the Electronic EU Regulations 2011 and the EU General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR). If you wish to find out more, please visit https://ico.org.uk/.

2.4 We seek to comply with the UK Gambling Act 2005 (and revisions thereof) and Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act 2014.

2.5 We seek to comply with the "The Internet Gambling Prohibition Act" which was successfully attached to "The Safe Port Act" passed by the US Senate on Friday 29 September 2006. At present, the policy of the Company is to take the following precautions:

We do not promote or advertise gambling businesses that are resident in the USA.

In the event that the betting company does accept member sign-ups from residents of the USA, we will not accept any rewards relating to any client that we have inadvertently referred to that betting company who is a resident of the US.

Given the difficulty of stopping general access and the fact that we take active steps to avoid facilitating or profiting from bets made by residents of the USA (as set out in points a-c above), residents of the USA are allowed to surf our site as non-members.
