This policy explains how puntitbets-ie.com collects and uses information when you visit our site. We review guides, compare betting options, and publish editorial content for readers in Ireland. We do not operate a gambling platform, process payments, or hold accounts on your behalf. That distinction shapes what data we actually need - which is very little.
If something here is unclear, you can reach us directly at [email protected]. We will reply in plain language, not legal boilerplate.
When You Open a Page
Our web server logs standard technical data each time a page loads: your IP address, browser type, referring URL, and the page requested. This happens automatically and is common to every website you visit. We use these logs to monitor site performance, identify broken links, and understand which content readers find useful.
We do not link server log data to your name or any personal profile. Logs are stored for a limited period and then deleted as part of routine maintenance. We do not sell or share this data with third-party advertisers.
When You Email Us
If you contact us at [email protected], we receive your email address and whatever information you include in the message. We use that solely to reply to your query and, where relevant, to follow up if we need to clarify something.
We do not add contact addresses to mailing lists, pass them to partners, or retain correspondence beyond the period reasonably needed to resolve your query. If you would like your email and any related records deleted, say so in a message and we will confirm once done.
Cookies and Similar Tech
We use a small number of cookies to keep the site functional - for example, remembering display preferences. We may also use analytics cookies to count page visits in aggregate. These analytics do not identify you individually; they give us numbers such as total visits per article or average time on page.
You can refuse or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Doing so will not prevent you from reading content on puntitbets-ie.com, though some minor display preferences may reset between visits.
Retention Basics
We keep data only as long as there is a clear reason to hold it. Server logs roll off after a short window. Email correspondence is kept while the matter is open and for a reasonable period afterwards in case of follow-up. There is no long-term database of reader profiles on this site.
Where third-party services (such as an analytics provider) process data on our behalf, we choose providers that offer data-processing agreements consistent with GDPR obligations applicable in Ireland.
Your Choices
Under GDPR you have the right to request access to personal data we hold about you, ask for corrections, request deletion, and object to certain processing. Because we collect very little to begin with, most requests are straightforward to honour.
You can also withdraw consent for analytics cookies via your browser at any time without any consequence to your access to the site. We will not make exercising your rights difficult or conditional.
Privacy Contact
For any data-related question or to exercise your rights, write to [email protected] with a brief description of your request. We aim to acknowledge privacy queries within a few working days and resolve them as quickly as the nature of the request allows.
If you believe we have not handled your data correctly, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Commission, the supervisory authority for Ireland.
