Legal Bases for Processing
Afterhoursvenue.co.uk processes personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. We rely on consent where you have actively opted in — for example, subscribing to our newsletter or accepting non-essential cookies. We rely on legitimate interests for analytics, site security, and affiliate tracking, having assessed that these interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms. Where required by law, we will seek explicit consent before processing sensitive data.
Third Parties & Affiliate Links
Afterhoursvenue.co.uk contains links to licensed casino operators and gambling platforms. When you click on an affiliate link, you will be directed to a third-party website governed by its own privacy policy — we are not responsible for the data practices of those operators. We use third-party analytics providers (such as Google Analytics) to understand site usage; these providers may set their own cookies and process data in accordance with their respective privacy policies. Affiliate networks may also receive click and referral data to process commission attributions. We do not sell your personal data to any third party.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk if you believe your data has been handled unlawfully.
Data Security & Retention
Afterhoursvenue.co.uk implements appropriate technical and organisational measures — including encrypted connections (HTTPS), access controls, and regular security reviews — to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure. We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy, or as required by applicable law. Contact form data is typically retained for up to 12 months.
