Privacy policy
Archliteassignments.co.uk is an independent informational portal that publishes reviews and analytical content about online casinos, including Smash Casino. The site does not operate a casino, does not accept deposits or bets, and does not process gambling transactions of any kind. This policy explains what personal data the site administrator collects from visitors, why it is collected, and how it is protected.
Review
The data controller for archliteassignments.co.uk is the site administrator, not the operator of any casino brand reviewed on the platform. Any data referenced in this policy relates solely to visitors of archliteassignments.co.uk and not to accounts held with third-party gambling operators.
What data we collect
The site collects limited categories of information needed to operate the portal and respond to enquiries. Analytics tools record technical data such as IP address, browser type, device type, referring page and approximate location derived from the IP address. This data is aggregated and is not used to identify an individual visitor directly.
Cookies are used to remember basic preferences, measure traffic and understand how pages are used. A separate cookie notice on the site describes each cookie category in detail.
Where a visitor submits the contact form, the site collects the name, email address and message content provided voluntarily. This information is used only to respond to the enquiry and is not shared for marketing purposes.
Purposes of processing
Personal data collected through analytics and the contact form is processed for a limited set of purposes. These include maintaining the technical stability of the site, understanding how content is used, improving page structure, and responding to visitor questions or complaints.
Data is not used to build advertising profiles, sold to third parties, or shared with casino operators reviewed on the site. Processing is limited strictly to what is necessary to operate archliteassignments.co.uk as an informational resource.
Legal basis for processing
Processing is carried out in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018. Analytics and cookie-based processing generally relies on consent collected through the cookie banner, which can be withdrawn at any time.
Processing of contact form submissions relies on the legitimate interest of responding to enquiries submitted by visitors. Where consent is the legal basis, it can be withdrawn without affecting processing already completed.
Your rights as a data subject
Visitors have rights under UK GDPR regarding data held about them. These include the right to request access to personal data, ask for correction of inaccurate information, and request deletion where retention is no longer necessary.
Visitors may also object to certain processing, request that processing be restricted, and ask for a copy of data provided directly to the site. Requests are handled by the site administrator and a response is provided within the timeframe required by law.
Any visitor who believes their data has been processed unlawfully may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK supervisory authority for data protection matters.
Data retention
Analytics data is retained only for as long as needed to analyse trends and improve the site, after which it is aggregated or deleted. Contact form submissions are retained for a limited period sufficient to resolve the enquiry and are then removed unless a longer retention period is required by law.
Cookies expire according to the duration set for each category, as described in the cookie policy. No personal data is retained indefinitely without a documented reason.
Third parties and analytics services
The site uses third-party analytics providers to measure traffic and usage patterns. These providers process data under their own privacy terms and act as data processors on behalf of the site administrator where applicable.
No personal data collected through archliteassignments.co.uk is shared with casino operators, payment providers or marketing networks. Any transfer of data outside the United Kingdom by an analytics provider is carried out under appropriate safeguards recognised by UK data protection law.
Security measures
The site administrator applies technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss or alteration. These measures include secure transmission protocols, restricted access to administrative systems and periodic review of data handling procedures.
While reasonable steps are taken to safeguard data, no method of electronic storage or transmission can be guaranteed as completely secure. Visitors are encouraged to avoid submitting sensitive information through the contact form.
Policy updates and contact
This policy may be updated to reflect changes in legal requirements or in how the site operates. Any revision takes effect from the moment it is published on archliteassignments.co.uk, and visitors are encouraged to review this page periodically.
Questions about this privacy policy, or requests relating to personal data, can be sent to [email protected]. The site administrator reviews each enquiry and responds within a reasonable timeframe.
