This privacy policy describes how Simppeli collects, uses and protects your personal information when you visit simppeli-kasino.fi. We take your privacy seriously and handle your data in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Who controls your data
simppeli-kasino.fi is an independent information portal about Simppeli. We are the data controller for any information you provide directly to us through this site. This policy does not cover data you submit to Simppeli itself when you register or play — that is governed by the operator's own privacy policy, available on their platform.
What information we collect
We collect two kinds of data: information you give us actively, and information our systems observe while you browse.
Information you provide: When you contact us through our email address ([email protected]), we receive whatever details you include in your message — typically your email address, your question, and any account or technical information you choose to share. We do not ask for payment details, passwords, or identity documents.
Information we observe: Like most websites, we log technical data automatically when you visit — your IP address, the pages you view, how long you stay, the device and browser you use, and the site that referred you here. We also use cookies and similar tracking technologies; see our cookie policy for the full list of what is stored and how long it lasts.
Why we process your data
We use the information above for three purposes. First, to respond to any questions or feedback you send us — we cannot answer your email without reading it and replying to the address you provided. Second, to understand how visitors use this site so we can improve the content and fix technical problems. Third, to meet our legal obligations as a UK-based website, including keeping records where required by law.
Lawful basis under UK GDPR
We rely on legitimate interests for most processing — running an information portal and answering reader questions are genuine business purposes, and the data we collect for them is proportionate and expected. Where we use analytics or advertising cookies, we rely on consent, which you grant or refuse through the cookie banner when you first visit. For any legal record-keeping, the basis is compliance with a legal obligation.
Who else sees your data
We share your information with a small number of third parties who help us operate this site. Our hosting provider stores the files and database that make the pages load. Our analytics service (if you consented to analytics cookies) receives anonymised usage data so we can see which pages are read most. If we use advertising or affiliate tracking, those services may set their own cookies and receive aggregated visit data — none of it identifies you by name.
We never sell your personal data to marketing lists or data brokers. We do not transfer data outside the United Kingdom without appropriate safeguards in place, and we will not hand your information to any third party unless required by law or court order.
Your rights under UK GDPR
You have the following rights over your personal data, and you can exercise any of them by contacting us at [email protected]:
- Access: ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Rectification: ask us to correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
- Erasure: request that we delete your data where we no longer need it.
- Restriction: ask us to stop processing your data temporarily while a dispute is resolved.
- Portability: receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format so you can move it elsewhere.
- Objection: object to processing based on legitimate interests, and we must stop unless we can show a compelling reason to continue.
- Withdraw consent: where we relied on your consent (for analytics or advertising cookies), you can withdraw it at any time through your browser settings or by clearing cookies.
We aim to respond to any request within one month. If your request is complex, we may extend that by two further months and will explain why. There is no fee unless your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
Complaints and your supervisory authority
If you believe we have mishandled your data or breached UK GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection regulator. You can reach them at ico.org.uk or by calling their helpline on 0303 123 1113.
Protection of minors
This site is not intended for anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us immediately at [email protected] and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we operate or in data protection law. When we do, we will revise the date below and post the new version on this page. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
