3. Our Lawful Bases for Using Your Information

UK data protection law requires us to have a lawful basis for using personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:

Contract — where processing is necessary to provide a service you have requested, administer your competition entry, process an order, provide VIP membership or fulfil our obligations to you.

Legal obligation — where we need to process or retain information to comply with an applicable legal requirement.

Legitimate interests — where it is reasonably necessary for the operation, security and improvement of our business, including preventing fraud, maintaining competition records and protecting 6 For Gold and its customers, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.

Consent — where we have asked for your consent, for example for certain cookies or marketing activities where consent is required. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.

4. Who We Share Information With

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

Where necessary, we may share relevant information with organisations that help us operate 6 For Gold, including:

• Shopify, which provides our ecommerce platform;

• payment providers, including PayPal where applicable;

• website hosting and technology service providers;

• email and communications providers;

• delivery, courier or prize fulfilment providers;

• analytics and advertising providers where permitted;

• professional advisers where necessary; and

• law enforcement, regulators, courts or other authorities where we are legally required or otherwise lawfully permitted to do so.

We only share information where there is an appropriate reason for doing so.

5. International Data Transfers

Some of the service providers we use may process or store personal information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we take appropriate steps to ensure that it is protected in accordance with applicable UK data protection law. This may include relying on applicable adequacy regulations or appropriate contractual safeguards.

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies.

Some cookies are necessary for the website to operate. Other cookies may be used for purposes such as analytics, measuring website performance, remembering preferences and advertising.

Where required, non-essential cookies will only be used with the appropriate consent.

You can manage your available cookie and privacy choices through the controls provided on our website and through your browser settings.

Please see our Your Privacy Choices information for further details about managing your privacy preferences.

7. Marketing

Where permitted, we may use your contact details to tell you about 6 For Gold competitions, offers, VIP benefits and other relevant updates.

You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe option provided in the communication or by contacting us.

Stopping marketing communications will not prevent us from sending essential service messages relating to your account, competition entries, purchases, Player Protection settings, prizes or other transactions with us.

8. How Long We Keep Your Information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and to meet applicable legal, accounting, fraud prevention, dispute resolution and record-keeping requirements.

Different types of information may therefore be retained for different periods.

Where information is no longer required, we will delete it or anonymise it where appropriate.

9. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no internet-based service or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Free Entries

• verify eligibility;

• identify duplicate or invalid entries;

• administer the relevant competition;

• record and process the free entry;

• contact you if required in connection with the competition; and

• maintain appropriate competition records.

Free entry information is not used to require or encourage a purchase.

11. Player Protection Information

Where you use our Player Protection tools, we may process information relating to Spending Limits, Cool-Off periods and Self-Exclusion.

We use this information to operate and enforce the protection you have selected and to maintain appropriate records relating to those protections.

Player Protection information may also be used where reasonably necessary to help prevent circumvention or misuse of those protections.

12. Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on the circumstances and the lawful basis we rely upon, you may have the right to:

• request access to personal information we hold about you;

• request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;

• request deletion of your information in certain circumstances;

• request restriction of processing in certain circumstances;

• object to certain processing;
