This notice covers the data practices of this website only — the independent information portal you are reading now, not Firescatters casino's own player-account systems. If you have registered a real-money account with Firescatters directly, that relationship is governed by the operator's own privacy terms, not this one. What follows explains what we, as the publisher of this portal, collect from a visitor reading our content, and why.
Scope of this notice
We publish independent information about the Firescatters casino and sportsbook product for readers based in the UK. This notice applies to everyone who visits this site, whether or not you go on to open an account with the brand it describes. It does not extend to any third-party site you reach by following a link from here, including Firescatters' own platform, and we would encourage you to read that operator's separate privacy terms before registering with it.
Categories of information we collect
We collect two broad categories of data. The first is technical and largely automatic: your IP address, browser type, device information, referring page and the pages you view, gathered through standard web logging and cookies. The second is anything you choose to submit yourself — most commonly your name and email address, if you use our contact form. We do not ask for payment details, identity documents or account credentials at any point, because we have no need for them and no access to Firescatters' own account systems.
Lawful basis for processing
We rely on a mix of lawful bases under UK data protection law. Technical and analytics data is processed under our legitimate interest in understanding how the site is used and keeping it running properly. Where we set non-essential cookies — for analytics or advertising — we rely on your consent, given through the cookie banner, which you can withdraw at any time. Data you submit through a contact form is processed to respond to your enquiry, which is also a legitimate interest on our part.
Sharing your information
We do not sell personal data, to Firescatters or to anyone else. We do use a small number of third-party services to run the site — typically an analytics provider and, where applicable, an advertising or affiliate-tracking partner — and those providers process data on our instructions under their own security terms. Some of these providers are based outside the UK; where that happens, transfers are made under the standard contractual clauses or an equivalent safeguard recognised under UK GDPR.
Your controls under UK GDPR
As a UK resident, you hold a set of rights over data we hold about you. In practice, these break down as follows:
- Access — ask us for a copy of what we hold about you.
- Rectification — ask us to correct anything inaccurate.
- Erasure — ask us to delete data we no longer need a lawful basis to keep.
- Restriction — ask us to pause processing while a dispute is resolved.
- Portability — request your data in a portable format, where technically feasible.
- Objection and withdrawal — object to processing based on legitimate interest, or withdraw cookie consent at any time.
To exercise any of these, write to [email protected] and we will respond within a reasonable period. If you are unhappy with our response, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk, the supervisory authority for data protection in the UK.
Protection of minors
This portal, and the gambling content it describes, is intended only for readers aged 18+. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under that age, and any contact-form submission that suggests the sender is under 18 will be deleted rather than processed. Parents or guardians concerned about a device being used to reach gambling-related content may wish to look at parental-control software such as Net Nanny or Qustodio, which can restrict this kind of site at the network level.
Changes to this notice
We may update this notice from time to time — most often to reflect a new analytics tool, a change in law, or a new third-party service. Material changes will be reflected in the date below, and we would encourage returning visitors to check it occasionally rather than assume nothing has moved.
This notice was last reviewed in 2026. Questions about how this portal handles your data can be sent to [email protected] at any time.
Access to this site is restricted to persons aged 18 and over (18+). We want your visit to stay a positive one — free, confidential support with gambling is available at BeGambleAware.org.
