At galacticwins-newz.com, we value your privacy just as much as you do and have created this Privacy Policy to ensure your security. This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”), along with the Website’s Terms and Conditions, sets out the basis on which any personal data we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us.
Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it. By visiting our Website, you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. You can contact the data controller if you have any questions regarding how we use your personal data.
What data do we collect about you?
Personal data or personal information is any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. This does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data). We may collect, use, store, and transfer different types of personal data about you, which we have grouped together as follows:
- “Identity Data” includes first name, last name, or similar identifier.
- “Contact Data” includes email address and phone numbers.
- “Profile Data” includes your username and password (encrypted), login and logout times.
- “Marketing and Communications Data” includes your preferences in receiving marketing from us and our third parties, your communication preferences, and any correspondence we have had with you. This category also includes any content you submit such as posts, comments, personal preferences, opinions, complaints, and chats.
- “Technical Data” includes the internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the internet, your login information, browser type and version, time zone setting, browser plug-in types and versions, your internet service provider (ISP), your device, your location, your operating system and platform, header of your requests, and other online identifiers.
- “Usage Data” includes information about how you use our Website, including the full Uniform Resource Locators (URL) and page interaction information.
We also collect, use, and share “Aggregated Data” such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data could be derived from your personal data, but is not legally considered personal data as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data, which will be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We do not collect any information about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sexual life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, or genetic and biometric data.
How is your personal data collected?
We use different methods to collect data from and about you, including through:
- Direct interactions: You may give us your Identity Data, Contact Data, and Profile Data by a) registering on our Website b) subscribing to our newsletter c) contacting us d) participating in one of our promotions e) submitting content such as posts, comments, personal preferences, opinions, complaints, chats
- Automated technologies or interactions: As you interact with our Website, we will automatically collect Technical Data about your devices, browsing actions, and patterns. We collect this data by using cookies, server logs, and other similar technologies. The Website runs targeted advertising based on your personal data. This means that the Website will show you advertising based specifically on your interests, which we would have recorded through your interactions with the Website or from information gathered by the analytics platforms we use, or through cookies. To learn more about these features, please visit our Cookie Policy.
- Third parties or publicly available sources: We may partner with third parties (such as content providers and analytics companies, e.g., Google Analytics) to help us improve the Website’s services and to better understand how you interact with the Website, as well as to support our initiatives. These companies may automatically collect information from you in connection with your visit. To learn more about the cookies we use, please visit our Cookie Policy.
How is your personal data used?
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose.
Please remember that you can withdraw your consent at any time in your user account, by following the unsubscribe link in the newsletters, or by contacting us.
With whom do we share your personal data?
We do not trade, share, transfer, or disclose any of your personal data unless otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy or otherwise required by and in accordance with applicable law.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
We may share your personal data with its subsidiaries or affiliates for legitimate business purposes. We strive to partner with companies that offer services, solutions, and promotions that we believe are of value to our customers, and in such cases, we will make such services, solutions, and promotions from those other companies available to you.
We may release your data when required by law to comply with legal processes.
In the event of a merger, reorganization, or sale of the Website, we may transfer any and all recorded personal and non-personal data to all relevant third parties. In this case, the Website will inform users before personal data becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
We will transfer your personal data to our service providers or partners outside the European Economic Area (EEA). We will only transfer your personal data outside the EEA if the respective countries to which such data is to be transferred provide an adequate level of protection for your personal data.
The determination of whether an adequate level of protection for your personal data is ensured is based on the presence of one of the following prerequisites:
- The European Commission has determined that the respective third country, territory, or a specific sector within that third country ensures an adequate level of data protection for data transfers.
- The service provider or partner to whom your personal data is to be transferred offers appropriate safeguards and data subject rights, and adequate legal remedies are available for data subjects. Suitable safeguards can be provided in various ways, including through the use of standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission. For more information, please click here.
We also reserve the right to share statistics on your use of the Website, sales, traffic, and other statistical information related to the Website with third parties, without, however, identifying your identity.
We do not provide any guarantee against the use of your information by third-party websites that are linked to and from the Website.
General Account Registration Policy
You can register a free account on the Website. Please note that this is not mandatory to continue using the Website and to participate in the promotions offered, unless stated otherwise.
Account registration is not available to children and visitors under 18 years of age (or the corresponding minimum age in the respective jurisdiction). In accordance with this Privacy Policy, the Website does not knowingly record, store, or share any personal data from children and visitors under 18 years of age (or the corresponding minimum age in the respective jurisdiction).

Child Protection
The Website is an online gambling information portal, and therefore none of its marketing content, products, services, or promotions are suitable for or directed at children and visitors under 18 years of age (or the corresponding minimum age in the respective jurisdiction). The Website does not knowingly request or collect personal data from children under 18. If the Website becomes aware that it has accidentally collected personal data from a child under 18, it will remove that child’s personal data from its records as quickly as possible. The Website bears no responsibility for the actions of children or visitors under 18 years of age (or the corresponding minimum age in the respective jurisdiction) based on the content found on the Website or any of its subdomains and pages, or our outgoing marketing campaigns (including, but not limited to, our email newsletter).
Under certain circumstances, you have data protection rights in relation to your personal data.
What are your rights?
Under certain circumstances, you have data protection rights in relation to your personal data:
You have the right to:
- Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
- Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This allows you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, although we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
- Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us to continue to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully, or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request for erasure for specific legal reasons where we must comply with applicable laws or where there is otherwise a legitimate interest for us not to comply with such a request.
Otherwise, you can always ask users to delete all of your personal data, and at that point, we will use our best efforts to comply with your request. Please note that in the event you would like us to delete your data in connection with a job application, we will not be able to consider you for future job openings that may become available and fit your application unless you reapply and resubmit the information.
- Object to the processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or that of a third party) and your particular situation makes you want to object to processing on this ground, as you feel it impacts your fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, however, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information that override your rights and freedoms.
- Request restriction of the processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: a) If you want us to establish the data’s accuracy. b) Where our use of the data is unlawful, but you do not want us to erase it. c) Where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it, as you need it to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. d) You have objected to our use of your data, but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
- Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information that you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
- Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
We keep copies of all communications you send to us (including copies of all emails, chat communications) in order to maintain accurate records of the information we have received from you.
How long do we store your personal data?
You can ask us to delete your data by closing your user account. In that case, we will promptly delete all information, with the exception of that which we are legally obligated to keep from time to time.
In some circumstances, we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes. In which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
Is your data secure?
The Website has implemented the necessary digital and infrastructure security measures in the physical IT and data storage facilities to protect your data from loss, misuse, and alteration.
Your personal data will only be made accessible to Website employees who need access to specific data to perform the functions associated with their position in the company.
Your personal data is password-protected in a secure digital encryption environment.
We comply with all regulations on the protection of personal data.
Do we change our Privacy Policy?
Any changes we may make to our Privacy Policy in the future will be posted on this page and, where appropriate, notified to you by email. Please check back frequently to see any updates or changes to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to any changes, we advise you to contact customer service or otherwise close your account.
Are we responsible for third-party websites?
Once you leave the Website or are otherwise redirected to another website (“Third-Party Website”), for example, by clicking on an advertisement or a banner of third-party brands advertised on the Website, the terms and conditions and the privacy policies and data processing practices (over which we have no control) of the Third-Party Website will apply, and the Website’s Terms and Conditions and this Privacy Policy will no longer apply to you and to any use you make on such a Third-Party Website.
Supervisory Authority
You have the right to complain to the competent local supervisory authority about our processing of your personal data.
We kindly ask you to first try to resolve any issues with us, although you have the right to contact your supervisory authority at any time.
