  • To create and maintain user accounts;
  • To verify identity in compliance with UK anti-money laundering and responsible gambling regulations;
  • To process deposits and withdrawals;
  • To provide customer support;
  • To deliver personalised services and communications where consent has been given;
  • To fulfil legal and regulatory obligations.

  • The right to request deletion of personal data, subject to legal retention requirements;

Use of Collected Information

Personal data collected through the platform is used strictly for lawful, specified, and transparent purposes. Gambiva does not use personal data in ways that are incompatible with the original purpose for which it was collected.

How Personal Data Is Used

Collected information is used for the following purposes:

  • Account services: To register, verify, and maintain user accounts, and to process account-related requests;
  • Transactions: To facilitate deposits, withdrawals, and the recording of all financial activity on the account;
  • Service improvement: To analyse platform performance, identify technical issues, and develop new features;
  • Marketing communications: To send promotional material, where users have provided explicit consent to receive such communications;
  • Analytics: To understand how users interact with the platform and improve the overall experience;
  • Regulatory compliance: To fulfil obligations under UK gambling regulations, anti-money laundering laws, and data protection legislation.

All personal data processing is carried out on a lawful basis, which may include user consent, contractual necessity, legal obligation, or legitimate interest, as appropriate. Users will be informed of the applicable lawful basis at the point of data collection where this is required by law.

Access to Information

Users have the right to access the personal data held about them by Gambiva at any time. Requests for access, correction, or deletion of personal data can be submitted through the official support channels listed on the website.

Accessing and Updating Personal Data

Users may log in to their account to review and update certain personal details directly. For changes that cannot be made through the account dashboard, users may contact the support team, who will assist with the request in accordance with applicable data protection obligations.

Correction and Deletion Procedures

If personal data held on an account is found to be inaccurate or outdated, users are entitled to request its correction. Requests for data deletion will be assessed in accordance with UK GDPR obligations and may be subject to statutory retention periods that prevent immediate deletion.

Consent to Security and Payment Processing

By using the Gambiva platform, users acknowledge and consent to the following:

  • Security checks may be conducted to verify identity and prevent fraud;
  • Payment data may be shared with authorised payment service providers for the purpose of processing transactions;
  • Such processing is carried out by third-party providers under contractual agreements that require them to maintain appropriate data protection standards.

Protection of Children’s Privacy

The Gambiva platform is strictly intended for individuals aged 18 years or over. Access to the site, registration of an account, and participation in any form of gambling or betting activity is prohibited for persons under this age.

Age Verification Limitations

Although Gambiva takes reasonable steps to prevent underage access, the platform cannot independently verify the age of every user without the submission of appropriate identity documents. Users are required to submit valid identification as part of the verification process, and accounts will not be fully activated until age verification is completed.

Deletion of a Minor’s Data

In the event that a parent or legal guardian identifies that a minor has registered an account or submitted personal data to the platform without authorisation, they may contact the Gambiva support team to request the immediate deletion of that data. Upon receipt of a verified request, all personal data associated with the account will be permanently removed from Gambiva’s systems, subject to any overriding legal obligations.

International Data Transfers

In order to deliver its services, Gambiva may engage partners, service providers, and processors located outside the United Kingdom. As a result, personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries that are not subject to UK data protection law.

Consent to International Processing

By accessing and using the Gambiva platform, users consent to the transfer of their personal data to countries where Gambiva’s operational partners are based. This may include jurisdictions within and outside the European Economic Area.

Confidentiality Safeguards

All third-party partners involved in the international processing of personal data are required to maintain confidentiality and implement appropriate data protection safeguards. Gambiva ensures that such transfers are conducted in accordance with UK GDPR requirements, which may include the use of standard contractual clauses or other approved transfer mechanisms.
