Privacy Policy
Last updated: 9 junio 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how mlb Betting Systems («we», «our», «us») collects, uses and protects personal data when you visit this website. We act as a data controller within the meaning of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Who we are
mlb Betting Systems is an independent editorial publication focused on MLB betting analysis for a UK audience. We do not operate a sportsbook, hold customer funds or accept wagers. We publish educational content only.
What personal data we collect
We collect the minimum data required to operate the website and improve our editorial content.
- Technical data: IP address (truncated where possible), browser type, device type, operating system, screen resolution, referrer URL, and the pages you view on this site.
- Usage data: the time and duration of your visit, the order in which pages were accessed, and whether internal links were followed.
- Voluntary data: if you contact us, any information you provide in your message (such as your name and email address).
We do not knowingly collect special category personal data (such as health or political opinions) and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. This website is intended only for adults of legal gambling age in the United Kingdom.
Legal bases for processing
Under UK GDPR Article 6, our processing relies on the following legal bases:
- Legitimate interests — for analytics in aggregate form, for ensuring the site is secure and reliable, and for improving editorial quality.
- Consent — for any non-essential cookies and any optional tracking technologies. You may withdraw consent at any time using the cookie controls.
- Legal obligation — where we are required by UK law, including the Gambling Act 2005 and UK Gambling Commission guidance on advertising standards, to retain or disclose information.
Cookies and similar technologies
This website uses cookies. A separate Cookie Policy describes each cookie category and how to control them. Strictly necessary cookies are set on first visit. All other categories load only after you grant consent.
How we use your data
We use the data above to deliver the website to your device, measure aggregate readership patterns, prevent abuse and fraud, respond to enquiries you send us, and meet our legal and regulatory obligations.
We do not sell personal data. We do not use personal data for automated decision-making that produces legal effects on you.
Sharing your data
We share personal data only with carefully selected processors who help us run the website, including hosting providers, content delivery networks, and analytics suppliers. Each processor is bound by a written agreement that requires technical and organisational safeguards consistent with UK GDPR.
We may disclose personal data to a competent authority — including the UK Gambling Commission, the Information Commissioner’s Office, HMRC or law enforcement — where disclosure is required by law or is necessary to protect our legal rights.
International transfers
Some of our processors are based outside the United Kingdom. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we rely on UK adequacy regulations, on the International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA), or on the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, together with supplementary safeguards where necessary.
How long we keep data
We retain personal data only for as long as it serves the purpose for which it was collected. Server log data is typically deleted or anonymised within 90 days. Correspondence is retained for as long as needed to respond to your query and to maintain a record of communication, normally no more than 24 months.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to access your personal data, to ask for inaccurate data to be corrected, to ask for your data to be erased, to restrict or object to processing, and to receive your data in a portable format. Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below. We respond within one calendar month, as required by UK GDPR.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk), the UK supervisory authority for data protection.
Security
We use TLS encryption for all data in transit, restrict administrative access on a least-privilege basis, and keep software dependencies up to date. No system is perfectly secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the public internet.
Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in UK law. The «Last updated» date at the top of the page indicates when it was most recently revised. Material changes will be flagged on the homepage.
