Legal Bases for Processing
Cycle100.co.uk processes personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Where we send marketing communications or deploy non-essential cookies, we rely on your freely given and informed consent (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR). For analytics, affiliate tracking, and site security activities, we rely on our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR) in operating a commercial review platform, provided those interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights. Where processing is required to meet a legal obligation, we rely on Article 6(1)(c). You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
Third Parties & Affiliate Links
Cycle100.co.uk contains affiliate links to licensed casino operators, including Monster Casino and other regulated gambling brands. When you click such a link, you will be redirected to a third-party website governed by its own privacy policy and terms. We are not responsible for the data practices of those operators and encourage you to review their policies independently. We also use third-party analytics providers (such as Google Analytics), whose tools may set cookies on your device. These providers act as data processors on our behalf and are contractually bound to process data only on our instructions and in compliance with applicable data protection law.
