Legal Bases for Processing
Willowandribbon.co.uk processes personal data in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Where we rely on your consent — for example, for analytics cookies or newsletter subscriptions — you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing. For activities such as operating our website, responding to enquiries, and managing affiliate tracking, we rely on our legitimate interests as a commercial review publisher, provided those interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms. In limited circumstances, processing may be necessary to comply with a legal obligation.
Third Parties & Affiliate Links
Willowandribbon.co.uk contains links to third-party casino operators, software providers, and payment platforms. When you click an affiliate link, you will be redirected to an external website governed by that operator's own privacy policy — we are not responsible for their data practices. We also work with analytics providers (such as Google Analytics) whose tools collect anonymised usage data on our behalf. These providers are contractually bound to process data only as instructed by Illowandribbon and in compliance with UK GDPR requirements. We do not sell your personal data to any third party.
Your Privacy Rights
- Right of access: request a copy of the personal data bass-casino.com holds about you.
- Right to rectification: ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information.
- Right to erasure: request deletion of your personal data where there is no compelling reason for continued processing.
- Right to data portability: receive your data in a structured, commonly used format and transfer it to another controller.
- Right to object: object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing communications.
- Right to restrict processing: ask us to pause processing of your data in certain circumstances.
- Right to withdraw consent: withdraw any previously given consent at any time via our cookie settings or by contacting us.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact the Illowandribbon team using the details in the Contact section below. We will respond within 30 days in accordance with UK GDPR timescales. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk if you believe your data has been handled unlawfully.
Data Security & Retention
Illowandribbon implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure. Willowandribbon.co.uk uses HTTPS encryption across the entire site and restricts access to personal data to authorised team members only. We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this policy or to meet legal requirements. Contact form data is typically retained for up to 24 months; newsletter subscriber data is held until you unsubscribe; analytical data is retained in line with the cookie retention periods outlined in the table above. When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised.
