This privacy policy explains how CrownPerkHarbour handles personal data when you visit our website, click our links, contact us, or interact with measurement technologies. We operate as an editorial comparison site for licensed UK casino brands. We do not run gambling accounts or process player deposits, but we still collect limited information needed to operate the site responsibly and lawfully.

1. Who is responsible for this site

CrownPerkHarbour is the controller for the personal data described in this policy, except where another party clearly acts as controller for its own service. If you contact us, the contact point for privacy matters is info@crownperkharbour.co.uk. We use this address for editorial, legal, and data protection questions so that requests are not lost between departments.

2. The data we collect directly

Most visitors can read the site without creating an account. If you email us, we may collect your name, email address, message content, and any additional details you choose to provide. We also log basic technical data generated by your device when you request pages, such as browser type, approximate location from IP signals, device category, and referring source. These records help us detect abuse, understand site performance, and review how readers reach our pages.

3. Information collected automatically

When you browse the site, certain information is collected automatically through server logs and browser storage. This may include page views, timestamps, navigation paths, language settings, approximate geography, and whether cookie or age-gate preferences have been saved in your browser. Some of this information is necessary to keep the website functioning, while other parts help us understand whether our editorial pages are useful and technically stable.

4. Why we use personal data

We use data to provide the site, maintain security, honour age and cookie choices, respond to messages, improve readability, and measure basic traffic patterns. We may also use data to investigate fraud, monitor suspicious automated activity, or document compliance steps linked to affiliate partnerships and responsible gambling messaging. We do not use your message content to profile you for betting behaviour, and we do not sell personal data as a data broker would.

5. Lawful bases under UK GDPR

Our processing relies on several lawful bases. We use legitimate interests for fraud prevention, site analytics carried out in a proportionate way, affiliate reporting, and editorial optimisation. We use consent where the law requires it, especially for non-essential cookies or similar technologies when applicable. We may rely on legal obligation where records are needed to respond to valid legal demands or to document compliance duties tied to advertising, consumer protection, or privacy law.

6. Affiliate links and external operators

When you click a casino link on CrownPerkHarbour, you leave our site and move to the operator or partner environment. That third party may collect data under its own privacy notice, cookies policy, and registration flow. We are not responsible for how an external operator handles identity checks, payment records, account information, or responsible gambling controls inside its own service. You should read the third party's terms before registering.

7. Cookies, local storage, and similar tools

We use browser storage to remember whether you have confirmed you are over 18 and whether you have made a cookie choice. We may also use limited measurement technologies to understand aggregate traffic and page engagement. Essential storage helps the site avoid repetitive prompts and supports a safer user experience. More detail about categories, purposes, and controls appears in our dedicated Cookies Policy.

8. Data sharing

We share data only where there is a clear reason to do so. That may include hosting providers, analytics services, email providers, technical support contractors, and affiliate platforms that help measure referral activity. Service providers are expected to process information under contractual restrictions and only as needed to perform their role. We may also disclose information when required by law, court order, regulatory request, or where disclosure is needed to protect the site or its users from abuse.

9. International transfers

Some service providers may process data outside the UK. Where that happens, we aim to use providers that offer appropriate safeguards, such as adequacy regulations, standard contractual clauses, or equivalent protective measures recognised under applicable law. International transfer risk cannot be removed completely, but we try to keep the number of providers limited and the data shared proportionate to the purpose.

10. How long we keep information

Retention depends on the type of data and the reason it was collected. Server logs and measurement records are usually kept for a limited period needed for security review, troubleshooting, and trend analysis. Email correspondence may be retained longer when it relates to legal concerns, correction requests, advertising disputes, or compliance follow-up. Browser storage for age and cookie choices remains until it expires, is overwritten, or you clear it from your device.

11. Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you may have rights to request access to your personal data, correction of inaccurate information, erasure in certain situations, restriction of processing, objection to processing based on legitimate interests, and data portability where the law applies. You may also withdraw consent where consent was the legal basis, without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request so that information is not disclosed to the wrong person.

12. Complaints and updates

If you believe we have handled your personal data unfairly, contact us first at info@crownperkharbour.co.uk so we can review the issue. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office in the UK if you think your rights have been breached. We may update this policy when our services, providers, or legal duties change. The latest version published on this page replaces earlier versions.
