This Privacy Policy explains how SportBet collects, uses, stores and shares personal data when you visit sportbetng.com, read our casino or betting information, follow an external link, or contact our support team. Personal data means information that identifies you directly or can reasonably be linked to you.
SportBet is an information and review website. We do not accept wagers, operate casino games or process betting deposits and withdrawals. External betting platforms may collect information separately when you choose to visit them, and their data practices are outside our control.
By using this website, you acknowledge the practices described below. Where consent is required for a particular activity, such as the use of optional cookies, you may choose whether to provide it.
What data we collect
We may automatically receive technical and usage data, including your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, approximate location, referring page, pages viewed, links selected, session duration and timestamps. This information may be collected through server logs, cookies and similar technologies.
If you email us, we receive your email address and any name, question, attachment or other information you include. Please do not send payment card details, betting account passwords, identity documents or unnecessary sensitive information. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18+.
How we use data
We use data to deliver and maintain the website, respond to enquiries, understand which articles are useful, diagnose technical faults, prevent spam and malicious activity, and improve navigation and content. We may also use aggregated statistics that do not directly identify individual visitors.
Processing may be based on your consent, our legitimate interest in operating a secure and useful website, compliance with applicable obligations, or steps needed to answer a request you submit. We retain personal data only as long as reasonably necessary for these purposes, dispute handling, security and legal requirements, after which it is deleted or anonymised.
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your browser or device. Essential cookies may support security, traffic management and basic website functions. Analytics cookies can show how visitors reach and use SportBet, such as popular pages, general device categories and whether an error occurred.
Where required, optional cookies are used only after you make a choice through the available cookie controls. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although disabling essential storage may affect some features. Clicking an affiliate or external link may allow the destination platform to recognise the referral and set its own cookies.
Data transfer
We may share limited data with service providers that support hosting, analytics, email delivery, cybersecurity and website maintenance. These providers may process information only for the agreed service and are expected to apply appropriate confidentiality and security measures. We do not sell personal data in exchange for money.
Some providers may process data outside Nigeria. Where an international transfer occurs, we take reasonable steps to use lawful safeguards and assess the protection available, as required by applicable Nigerian data protection rules. We may also disclose information where legally required or when necessary to protect users, the website or the public from fraud or security threats.
Your rights
Subject to the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and other applicable rules, you may have the right to request access to personal data held about you, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, object to certain processing, seek restriction, or request a portable copy where relevant. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting processing already carried out lawfully.
To exercise a right, contact us with enough detail to identify the relevant interaction. We may ask for proportionate verification before disclosing or changing data, particularly where a request involves an email conversation or security record. Some information may be retained where necessary to meet a legal obligation, establish claims or protect the website.
If you believe your data has been handled improperly, please contact us first so we can review the issue. You may also raise a complaint with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission where you are entitled to do so.
Contact
Questions, privacy requests and concerns about this Policy can be sent to [email protected]. Describe the request clearly and identify the page, message or approximate visit date involved, but do not include passwords, financial credentials or excessive identity information.
We will review messages and respond within a reasonable period, taking account of the nature and complexity of the request. This Policy may be updated when our technology, services or legal obligations change, and the revised wording will be published on sportbetng.com.
SportBet content is intended only for people aged 18+. If betting is affecting your wellbeing or finances, set firm spending and time limits, use available self-exclusion tools and consider stopping. Gambling Therapy provides free online support to people in Nigeria and other countries.
