Privacy Policy

Who we are

SAFEPUNTING is an analysis platform for betting-related content. We are the “controller” of personal data we process for operating this website.

What we collect

• Account data: email address and basic profile details (e.g., display name, bio, avatar) when you create an account.
• Waitlist data: email address when you join the waitlist.
• Content you submit: articles, picks, confidence scores, and related performance history submitted by writers/admins.
• Reader actions: follows, saved articles, and (if enabled) private bet-tracker logs you create in your dashboard.
• Usage data: basic product analytics (e.g., page views, feature usage) where enabled.
• Technical data: device/browser info and IP address (typically via hosting/security logs) for reliability and security.

Why we collect it (our purposes)

• To create and manage accounts and profiles.
• To display articles, leaderboards, writer profiles, and performance tracking.
• To operate a waitlist and notify you about early access and updates.
• To provide reader features such as follows, saved content, and feeds.
• To prevent fraud/abuse, troubleshoot issues, and keep the platform secure.
• To improve the product and user experience.

Legal bases (UK GDPR)

Where UK GDPR applies, we process personal data under one or more of the following legal bases:

• Contract: to provide the service (e.g., account access, profiles, reader features, publishing).
• Legitimate interests: to operate, secure, and improve SAFEPUNTING (balanced against your rights).
• Consent: where you opt in (e.g., non-essential cookies/analytics, marketing communications if used).
• Legal obligation: to comply with applicable laws and lawful requests.

How we share data

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with:

• Service providers: hosting, database, and email providers that help us run the platform (for example, Supabase for database/auth and Resend for transactional email).
• Security/abuse prevention: where necessary to detect, prevent, or investigate misuse.
• Legal: if required by law, court order, or to protect rights, safety, and integrity of the platform.

Public information

Some information may be public, especially for writers (e.g., display name, bio, published articles, and performance metrics). Please do not include sensitive personal information in public content.

International transfers

Our service providers may process data outside the UK. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we aim to use appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses) where required by law.

Data retention

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described above:

• Waitlist: retained until the waitlist is no longer needed or you ask to be removed.
• Accounts: retained while your account is active and for a reasonable period after deletion for security/audit and abuse-prevention.
• Public content/performance: may remain to preserve transparency and accountability, unless removal is required by law.
• Private reader logs: retained until you delete them or close your account (subject to reasonable backup retention).

Your rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or restriction of processing of your personal data, and to object to certain processing. You may also have the right to data portability.

To make a request, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Cookies & analytics

We use cookies or similar technologies for essential functionality (for example, authentication/session handling). We may also use analytics to understand usage and improve the product. If we introduce non-essential cookies that require consent, we’ll aim to provide appropriate controls.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data. However, no system is 100% secure. Please use strong passwords and keep your login details private.

Children

SAFEPUNTING is not intended for children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps.
