Privacy policy – Rugbytipsters.com

A rugby and betting information site for readers in Great Britain needs little personal data, and Rugbytipsters.com keeps to that little. The UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 apply, and the policy below discharges the duty to inform in Article 13 of the UK GDPR.

Responsible body

The body behind Rugbytipsters.com is the controller as defined in Article 4(7) UK GDPR. Its name, address and e-mail address can be found at rugbytipsters.com, which is also where questions about personal data should be sent.

Data collected

A server log entry is written on every page request: IP address, date and time, the address asked for, the volume of data returned, the referring page and the browser type. Logs serve security and the spotting of abuse, and after 90 days they are deleted or shortened until no person can be identified from them. When someone writes to the editors, a name, an e-mail address and the text are provided; they are used to answer and kept until the matter closes, plus the time needed to answer any claim. Writing is voluntary, though without the details no answer is possible. The site offers no reader accounts, deposits or bets, so there are no payment details and no identity documents.

Lawful bases

Logs, abuse protection and replies to messages rely on the controller’s legitimate interests in running a working, secure site (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR). Cookies beyond the strictly necessary and audience measurement rest on consent (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR with regulation 6 of PECR), and nothing runs until it is given. It may be withdrawn at any time without making earlier processing unlawful (Article 7(3)). No automated decisions are taken and no profiling is carried out.

Recipients and international transfers

Data is not sold. Processors acting on the controller’s instructions handle hosting, content delivery and e-mail (Article 28 UK GDPR), and public authorities receive data where legally required. A transfer out of the United Kingdom happens only to a country under adequacy regulations or with appropriate safeguards, namely the International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum (Article 44 onwards).

Rights of individuals

Anyone may request access (Article 15), rectification (Article 16), erasure (Article 17), restriction (Article 18) and portability (Article 20), and may object to processing based on legitimate interests (Article 21). Answers come without undue delay and at most one month after receipt, a period that can be extended by a further two months under Article 12(3).

Supervisory authority

The authority is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), and anyone who thinks their data has been processed in breach of data protection law may lodge a complaint with it (Article 77 UK GDPR).
