Legal Basis for Processing
Under GDPR and similar data protection laws, we must have a lawful basis to process your personal data. Our legal bases include:

Our legitimate interests include improving our services, preventing fraud, ensuring network and information security, and marketing our services.

Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal data to third parties. However, we may share your information with trusted third parties under specific circumstances:
- Service Providers: We engage third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our Services, such as payment processors, identity verification services, IT and hosting providers, and customer support platforms. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and only use it for the purposes we specify.
- Regulatory and Law Enforcement Bodies: We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or governmental request, or if we believe such action is necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect our rights, or investigate potential violations.

Data Security
Betsson employs robust technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, accidental loss, destruction, or alteration.

Access to your personal data is restricted to authorized personnel who require it to perform their job functions. We regularly review our security procedures to ensure they remain effective and up-to-date. While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

When we transfer your data internationally, we take appropriate safeguards to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable data protection laws. These safeguards may include relying on adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, or other legally recognized mechanisms.
Children's Privacy
Betsson's Services are strictly not intended for individuals under the age of 18 (or the legal age for gambling in your jurisdiction, if higher). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under the legal gambling age, we will take steps to delete that information as quickly as possible and close the associated account. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.
