Puntit runs puntit-bets-ie.com as an information site for adults in Ireland aged 18+. We review and explain betting topics; we do not operate gambling accounts or move player funds. That means the data we process is narrow: what servers log when pages load, and what you choose to send by email.
This policy answers the practical questions readers ask most often. For anything not covered here, contact [email protected].
Why we process anything at all
We process limited data so the site stays available, secure and useful. Without basic request logs we cannot investigate outages or abuse. Without email content we cannot reply to corrections or privacy requests. We do not process data to build gambling-risk scores or to sell reader lists.
Browsing and server logs
Typical log fields include IP address, user-agent string, requested path, referrer and time of request. We use them for troubleshooting, security monitoring and aggregated content planning. Logs are not treated as a marketing database.
We do not sell this information to casino operators. If you leave puntit-bets-ie.com for a third-party gambling site, that site applies its own privacy notice from the moment you arrive there.
Contact emails
When you write to [email protected], we receive your address and message body. Use that channel for editorial feedback, privacy requests or questions about how the site works. Leave out passwords, card numbers and scanned identity documents; an information publisher does not need them.
We retain correspondence while the matter is live and for a reasonable follow-up window, then remove it through ordinary mailbox hygiene unless law requires a longer hold.
Cookies, analytics and retention
Cookies may support essential functions, remember simple preferences or help us count visits in aggregate. You can refuse non-essential cookies through browser controls. Blocking them should not stop you reading core articles, though a dismissed notice might reappear.
Retention follows purpose. Security and performance logs rotate on a short cycle. Aggregated analytics may be kept longer because they do not identify a named person. Email threads follow the shorter contact cycle above.
Transfers and processors
Hosting, email and analytics providers may process data so Puntit can deliver pages and reply to messages. Processing can involve servers outside Ireland or the EEA. Where GDPR requires safeguards for those transfers, we expect appropriate contractual or recognised mechanisms to be in place.
Your rights and dataprotection.ie
You may request access, correction, erasure, restriction or objection where the law allows, and you may ask about portability for data you provided when that right applies. Email [email protected] with a clear description of the request. We may need enough detail to locate the relevant record, but we will not demand gambling-account credentials.
If you remain unhappy with how a privacy matter was handled, you can contact the Data Protection Commission through dataprotection.ie. We still encourage an initial note to us so simple issues can be fixed quickly.
Policy changes
We update this notice when tools, hosting arrangements or legal duties change. The text live on puntit-bets-ie.com is the current version. Privacy questions go to [email protected].
