International Transfers
Observe: The Nu Bet service is directed at players in Great Britain, but NuGen Gaming Ltd is based in Malta and relies on various international service providers.
Expand: This naturally involves transfers of personal data from the UK to the European Economic Area (EEA) and, in limited cases, to other countries.
Reflect: We implement recognised legal mechanisms and safeguards to ensure your data remains protected when transferred internationally.
Transfers Within the UK and EEA
- UK to Malta / EEA: Personal data may be processed in Malta and other EEA countries where our systems, staff, or service providers are located. The UK currently recognises the EEA as providing adequate protection, and UK data exported to the EEA benefits from that adequacy framework.
Transfers Outside the UK / EEA
- Non-EEA providers: Where we use providers located outside the UK/EEA (for example, certain cloud services, analytics or payment providers), we ensure an appropriate transfer mechanism is in place.
- Standard Contractual Clauses and UK addenda: We rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA), or the UK Addendum to the SCCs, as appropriate, together with risk assessments and complementary technical and organisational controls.
- Other safeguards: Where relevant, we rely on additional legal bases permitted by UK GDPR, such as explicit consent or necessity for the performance of a contract, always ensuring that your fundamental rights remain protected.
Data Retention
Observe: UK gambling and financial regulations require us to retain certain records for defined periods.
Expand: Retention must respect both legal minimums and data minimisation principles, deleting or anonymising data when it is no longer needed.
Reflect: We apply structured retention schedules for Nu Bet data processed through bednu.com, aligned with regulatory expectations as at 2025.
Retention Principles
- Purpose limitation: We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy or as required by law.
- Regulatory minimums: Certain records must be kept for mandatory periods to comply with anti-money laundering, gambling, tax, and accounting rules.
- Anonymisation: Where appropriate, we anonymise data so it can no longer be associated with you, and we may use such anonymised information indefinitely.
Indicative Retention Periods
- Player account data: Generally retained for the duration of your active account and for up to five (5) years after account closure, to meet regulatory, anti-fraud, and legal requirements.
- Financial and transactional records: Typically retained for at least five (5) years from the date of the relevant transaction or relationship, or longer if required by AML or tax laws.
- KYC and verification data: Retained for at least five (5) years after the end of the business relationship or last transaction, in line with AML obligations.
- Technical logs and security data: Retention periods vary but are generally shorter (e.g. from several months up to two (2) years), unless required longer for investigations or legal claims.
- Marketing data: Retained while you maintain a marketing relationship with us and for a limited period after you withdraw consent or opt out, to evidence compliance with your preferences.
Deletion and Archiving
- Deletion or anonymisation: Once retention periods expire, data is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised, unless we have a legal basis to retain it longer.
- User-initiated deletion: If you request deletion of your data and we are not legally required to retain it, we will delete or anonymise your data in line with legal obligations and technical capabilities.
Your Rights
Observe: Players using Nu Bet via bednu.com have rights under UK GDPR, and similar rights may exist under other privacy laws such as Mexican data protection law for affected individuals.
Expand: These rights cover access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, data portability, and control over marketing consent, plus protections when automated decision-making is involved.
Reflect: We explain each right, how to exercise it, the expected timelines (generally 30 days), and how it aligns with broader international standards, including Mexican regulations where relevant.
Key Data Protection Rights
- Right of access: You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether we process your personal data and to receive a copy, together with information about how we use it.
- Right to rectification: You can request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data (for example, updating your address or contact details).
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"): You may request deletion of your data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, where you withdraw consent (and there is no other legal basis), or where processing is unlawful. We may need to retain certain records to comply with UK law and regulatory obligations.
- Right to restriction: You may request restriction of processing in certain circumstances (for example, where you contest the accuracy of data or object to processing pending verification).
- Right to object: You can object to processing based on our legitimate interests, including profiling. We will stop such processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds which override your interests, or where processing is required for legal claims.
- Right to data portability: In certain cases, you can request that we provide your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and transfer it to another controller where technically feasible.
- Rights in relation to marketing: You can withdraw consent to marketing at any time and object to marketing communications. We will respect your choice and update our systems accordingly.
- Automated decision-making and profiling: If we use automated decision-making that has legal or similarly significant effects, you have rights to obtain human intervention, express your point of view, and contest the decision, as required by law.
Procedures for Exercising Your Rights
- How to submit a request: Please contact our privacy team using the contact and support options available on bednu.com, clearly stating that your request concerns "Data protection / privacy". Where available, you may also use any dedicated privacy or "My data" tools in your account.
- Verification: For your security, we may ask for additional information (for example, confirming certain account details) before acting on a request.
- Timeframe: We aim to respond to all valid requests within one (1) month (30 days) of receipt. If your request is particularly complex or we receive numerous requests, we may extend this period by up to a further two months, in which case we will inform you of the extension and reasons.
- Charges: Requests are processed free of charge. We may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act only where a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in line with UK GDPR.
- UK and EU framework: These rights are primarily grounded in UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Where EU data protection law applies (for example, to certain EU-based users accessing services), similar GDPR rights apply via the competent EU supervisory authorities.
- Mexican privacy alignment: To the extent individuals are protected by Mexican data protection law (such as the Mexican Federal Law on Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties), comparable rights of access, rectification, cancellation, and opposition (often referred to as "ARCO" rights) are supported. Requests from such individuals will be addressed in line with both this policy and applicable Mexican regulations, to the extent they apply.
