How personal information is handled

What the editorial site may collect when you write to us or browse pimedia.org.uk, and the choices you have under UK data protection law.

This policy explains how Pi Media handles personal information when you use pimedia.org.uk. It is written for a UK audience and should be read with the cookie policy.

What we may collect

  • Information you send us, such as your name, email address and message.
  • Technical data that servers commonly log, such as browser type and coarse location derived from an IP address.
  • Cookie or similar storage described in the cookie policy, where those tools are used.

Do not send us identity documents or payment card numbers. We do not need them to answer a question about an article.

Why we use it

We use contact details to reply to you. We use technical logs to keep the site available and to understand faults. We do not sell personal information. If a hosting or email provider processes data for us, they do so to deliver the site, not to build a marketing profile for a casino brand.

The UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 set the framework for this processing. Depending on the activity, the lawful basis is likely to be legitimate interests (running and securing the site) or steps toward answering your request. Where a cookie is not strictly necessary, we will describe it in the cookie policy.

How long, and your choices

Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to handle the query and any follow-up, unless a longer period is required by law. You can ask what we hold about you, ask for correction, or object to certain processing, by emailing editorial@pimedia.org.uk. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.

This site does not ask you to create a gambling account. If you open an account with an operator, that company’s privacy notice governs the data they collect.
