Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies across the VBet casino online platform to ensure it functions correctly and to improve user experience. Our cookie policy covers both essential and non-essential cookies. Essential cookies are required for the website to operate — including maintaining your session after your VBet login. Non-essential cookies, such as analytics and advertising cookies, are only placed with your consent. You can manage your cookie preferences through our cookie settings tool at any time.

Sharing Your Data

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. However, we may share your information with trusted partners and service providers where necessary to deliver our services. This includes:

  • Identity verification and fraud prevention providers
  • Regulatory authorities including the UKGC where we are legally required to disclose information
  • Analytics and technology providers who help us maintain and improve our platform and VBet app

All third parties we work with are contractually required to handle your data securely and in compliance with applicable data protection law.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a period of at least five years after account closure, as required by UK gambling regulations and anti-money laundering laws. In some cases, we may retain certain data for longer if required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as resolving disputes or enforcing our agreements.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure. Our VBet casino igaming platform uses industry-standard SSL encryption, access controls, and regular security assessments to keep your information safe. While no system can guarantee absolute security, we are committed to maintaining the highest practical standards to safeguard your data.

International Data Transfers

As VBet UK is operated by SCGO Limited, which is headquartered in Malta, some of your personal data may be transferred to and stored in countries outside the United Kingdom. Where such transfers occur, we ensure they are subject to appropriate safeguards — including standard contractual clauses approved under UK data protection law — to protect your data to an equivalent standard.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal obligations. When we make significant changes, we will notify you via email or a prominent notice on our website. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we protect your data.
