Windsor Betting Guide is an independent editorial website providing data-driven analysis of horse racing at Windsor Racecourse. This privacy policy explains what information we collect when you visit the site, how that information is used and what choices you have.
Information We Collect
We do not require registration, login or any form of account creation to access the content on this website. We do not collect your name, email address, postal address, telephone number or payment details.
When you visit the site, our hosting infrastructure and analytics tools may automatically collect limited technical data. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time spent on each page and the date and time of your visit. This data is collected in aggregate form and is not used to identify individual visitors.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
This website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to support basic site functionality and to understand how visitors use the site. A detailed breakdown of the cookies we use, their purposes and durations is available in our Cookie Policy.
You can control cookie behaviour through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, though doing so may affect how parts of the site function.
Analytics
We use analytics tools to understand traffic patterns, popular content and general visitor behaviour. Analytics data is processed in aggregated, anonymised form. We do not build individual user profiles and we do not track visitors across other websites.
Third-Party Services
This website may contain links to external sites, including bookmaker websites, racing data providers, regulatory bodies and responsible gambling organisations. These include, among others:
When you follow a link to an external site, that site’s own privacy policy applies. We have no control over how third parties collect or process your data and we accept no responsibility for their practices.
We use Google Fonts to serve typefaces on this website. When a page loads, your browser connects to Google’s servers to retrieve font files. Google may log this request. Google’s privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, trade or otherwise share your personal data with third parties for commercial purposes. Aggregated, non-identifying analytics data may be shared with hosting or analytics providers solely for the purpose of maintaining and improving the website.
Data Retention
Server log files and analytics data are retained for a maximum of 26 months, after which they are automatically deleted. Cookie durations vary by type and are detailed in the Cookie Policy.
Your Rights Under UK Data Protection Law
Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, to request correction of inaccurate data, to request deletion of your data, to restrict or object to processing and to data portability where applicable. Because we collect minimal data and do not maintain user accounts, in most cases there is no personal data to retrieve or delete.
If you have questions about your data or wish to exercise any of these rights, the contact details are provided on our About Us page.
Children
This website contains content related to gambling. It is not intended for anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. You must be 18 or older to gamble in the United Kingdom.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in applicable law. Any changes will be published on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
