Akupanelen Privacy Policy 2026

We collect two kinds of data. First, information you give us directly: your email address and message if you contact us or subscribe to updates. Second, technical data collected automatically: IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, referring page and approximate location. We do not ask for payment details, government ID or gambling account credentials. We do not run player accounts. If you choose to visit an operator through a link on our pages, that operator collects its own data under its own privacy policy, and we have no control over it.

We use your data to run and improve the site. That means answering your messages, sending updates you asked for, measuring which guides are useful, fixing errors and protecting the site against abuse and fraud. We also use aggregated traffic data to understand how visitors reach us, including through terms like the secondary keywords we cover. Our legal bases are your consent, our legitimate interest in operating a secure and useful editorial site, and compliance with legal obligations. We do not sell your personal data.

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functions, analytics and affiliate attribution. Essential cookies keep the site working. Analytics cookies show us how pages perform. Affiliate cookies record that a visit came from us, so partners can credit referrals. You can accept or decline non-essential cookies through the consent banner and change your choice at any time. Browser settings let you block or delete cookies. Our cookie page lists each category in full.

We rely on a small set of providers: analytics tools, hosting and security services, email delivery and affiliate tracking partners. They process data only for the tasks we assign, or for their own stated purposes where they act as independent controllers. When data moves outside your country, we use recognised safeguards such as standard contractual clauses. We review providers periodically and remove those that no longer meet our standards.

You can ask to access the data we hold about you, correct it, delete it, restrict or object to its use, receive a portable copy, or withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that already took place. We respond within one month. You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. This site is for adults only. Gambling carries risk, so play within your limits.

We keep data only as long as we need it. Contact messages are kept for up to 24 months after the conversation ends. Subscriber details stay until you unsubscribe. Analytics data is retained in aggregated or anonymised form for up to 26 months. Affiliate attribution records are kept as long as needed for partner reporting and legal accounting. When the retention period ends, we delete or anonymise the data.

To exercise a right or ask a privacy question, use the contact form on the site and mark your message 'Privacy request'. Tell us what you want us to do and which email address or details relate to you. We will confirm receipt, verify your identity if needed and reply within one month. We update this policy when our practices change, and the date at the top of the page shows the 2026 version currently in force.
