The personal data protection laws require us to fulfil certain conditions before being authorised to use your data in the manner described in this privacy policy. We take our responsibilities under the personal data protection laws extremely seriously, including the respect of these conditions. We will base our use of your personal data on three conditions, depending on the activities that we are conducting:  

  • Respect of our contractual obligations: We will use your data to fulfil our obligations stemming from any Contract concluded between you and us, and to provide you with the information and services that you request from us.  In the context of the contract and to ensure its proper performance, we will also use your data to inform you of the changes made to our services and /or products and the development of our contractual relationship.

  • Legal obligations: As a regulated entity, we are bound to comply with the applicable directives provided by any pertinent regulatory body and we have obligations under applicable legislation, including the law on games of chance and betting, and the legislation to combat money laundering and fraud.  We will therefore use your data to conduct appropriate and necessary investigations and to fulfil our legal and regulatory obligations and duties, including to ensure our compliance (if applicable) with:

    • protect ourselves against fraud and ensure the physical and IT security of our firm;

    • ensure the management of any litigation that arises between us or with third parties.

When we use your data on the basis of our legitimate interest, we will conduct a balancing test to weigh up our interests in using your personal data against your interests as a citizen and your rights in application of laws on data protection.  The result of this balancing test will determine whether we can use your personal data in the manner described in this confidentiality policy. We will always act in a reasonable way and fully take into account your interests when conducting this balancing test.

When your data is no longer necessary for the aforesaid purposes, we will delete it within the time limits indicated below.

In order to ensure fair and transparent processing, we will adopt, taking into account our processing activities, appropriate procedures for processing personal data, which will include implementing technical and organisational measures taking into account the prejudice that may be suffered, and which correct inaccuracies identified in the processed personal data, in such a way that the risk of errors is minimised and that your personal data is processed fairly and securely.

All the information with which you provide us is stored on our secure servers. If you have given us (or if you have chosen) a password that allows you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for the confidentiality of this password. We ask you not to share this password with anyone at all.

Although we do our best to protect your personal data, we are not able to guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our website; any transmission is at your own risk. When we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security systems to endeavour to prevent any unauthorised access.

It may happen occasionally that suppliers of services, members of the Ladbrokes Coral Group and organisations with which we work are located outside the European Economic Area in countries that do not have the same standards for protecting personal data as Belgium. However, we will always make every reasonable effort to ensure that sufficient measures of protection are in place to protect your personal data. We will also ensure that our service providers conclude compliant processing agreements with us in order to ensure that your personal data is processed in compliance with applicable legislation on data protection.
