Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how this website (“we”, “us”, or “our”) handles information when you visit, read our articles, or contact us. We are committed to processing personal data lawfully, fairly, and transparently.
This site is an independent editorial resource. It is not the official WPT Global operator, and it does not process deposits, withdrawals, or account registrations.
When you email us or use a contact form, we receive your email address, name (if you provide it), and the contents of your message. We use this information only to respond and to keep a record of the conversation.
Like most websites, our hosting provider and analytics tools may record technical information such as:
- IP address and approximate location (city or country level)
- Browser type, device type, and operating system
- Pages visited, referring URLs, and time spent on the site
- Cookies and similar identifiers described in our Cookie Policy
Advertising and affiliate data
If advertising or affiliate services are enabled, third parties such as Google AdSense may use cookies to serve and measure ads. These providers may process data under their own privacy policies.
We use the information we collect to:
- Operate, maintain, and secure the website.
- Respond to messages, corrections, and privacy requests.
- Understand which articles are useful and improve our content.
- Measure the performance of advertising and affiliate links.
- Comply with legal obligations and prevent abuse.
We do not sell your personal data.
Legal bases for processing
Where the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies, we rely on the following legal bases:
- Legitimate interests in operating and improving an editorial website.
- Consent for non-essential cookies and personalised advertising, where required.
- Contract when you ask us to provide a service or respond to a request.
- Legal obligation where we must retain or disclose information by law.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use essential cookies to keep the site working and, where permitted, analytics and advertising cookies. You can manage your preferences through your browser or the consent tools shown on the site. See our Cookie Policy for a full breakdown.
We may share limited information with:
- Hosting and infrastructure providers that run the site.
- Analytics providers that help us understand traffic.
- Advertising and affiliate partners when their services are active.
- Authorities where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect rights and safety.
All service providers are expected to protect personal data and use it only for the agreed purpose.
International transfers
Some service providers may process data outside your country. Where this happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent legal mechanisms.
Data retention
We keep contact messages for as long as needed to resolve the request and maintain a reasonable record, usually no more than 24 months. Analytics data is retained according to the provider’s settings. You can request earlier deletion where the law allows.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate data.
- Request deletion of your data.
- Object to or restrict certain processing.
- Withdraw consent for cookies or marketing.
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
Children
This site is intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date at the top of the page shows when the latest changes took effect. Material changes will be highlighted on the site where appropriate.
