A full list of why we process your information can be seen below under “How we use your data”. You are under no obligation to provide Personal Data to us, but much of the Personal Data we request is essential for the provision and quality of the Services we offer to you (for example, enabling you to play the games on our Websites). We may not be able to provide you with our Services if you choose to withhold requested information.

When you navigate to websites and mobile applications of brands which are managed by CLUB4 Limited (“Websites”), we collect browser and cookie information. In addition, we may also collect your IP address and technical information relating to the device you are accessing our websites from.

During the registration process and when you subsequently use your CLUB4 account, you are requested to submit specific personal data including, but not limited to, your first and last name, date of birth, credit card or other payment data, home or another physical address, e-mail address, phone/mobile number or other contact data. In addition, you will be asked to create a unique user name and password combination for your account. This information is required to be able to access our Services.

Once you have created an account and have become a CLUB4 customer, additional information is processed on an on-going basis to ensure that our Services are offered to you in the best possible manner. You must use your unique password to access your account.

In certain instances, we may also request that you send us additional information to verify your identity.

In some limited instances we may conduct open source checks which access public records and publically available information about you, such as news articles, social media, forums and official records such as the electoral roll.

To protect both you and us, we use services provided by third parties to help us decide whether to accept transactions from you by assessing your method of payment, and the devices you use to visit our Websites. These third-party services check whether the device or method of payment has been identified with fraudulent or abusive transactions in the past, such as reported instances of identity theft, promotion abuse or credit card fraud.

How we use your information

We use the information we collect to provide, maintain, protect and improve our Services, to develop new ones and to protect CLUB4 and You. We also use this information to offer you tailored content – like giving you more relevant promotional offers.

  • providing you with gambling services
  • if necessary, contacting you via your registered contact information in connection with the management and operation of your account
  • Iprocessing your online financial and wagering transactions
  • researching your preferences, to develop new features, functionality, products and services

We actively manage our financial liabilities and risk on events and markets. Liability and exposure controls can be applied across betting markets and or across inpidual accounts to manage those liabilities. CLUB4 may assess your data to determine motivations for opening an account or placing a bet. Should your activity stand out from what CLUB4 considers to be usual and expected behaviour, or fits into certain known patterns that denotes potential exposure and liability concerns, further analysis is performed. In line with our terms and conditions, we may exclude you from certain promotions or from placing certain bets as a result of this investigation. Examples of unusual betting behaviour can be, though is not limited to:

  • larger than expected bets appearing on a very specific outcome, for example a correct set score in an ITF Tennis match;
  • a bet being placed by a customer who may be privy to information regarding the potential outcome of an event;
  • a customer changing their established betting pattern;
  • Ian alert from a sport’s governing body or monitoring agency
  • a large number of bets placed in a short time period on one specific outcome.

Any analysis performed is a private business owned commodity and is not transmitted to any third party. CLUB4 reserves the right to apply restrictions to customer accounts where it believes it to be appropriate to their betting activity.

Who we share your data with

In the case of sensitive personal data (as defined by the Data Protection Act) we will only share it in the case of specific consent from you.

Certain trusted third party companies provide services essential to our ability to offer our gambling products to you, for example those that supply the software and games for our Websites, banking and payment services, identity verification, fraud prevention and risk management. We may be required to share some of your information with these companies to be able to offer our Services to you. In these instances, we ensure that the third party has appropriate security and privacy arrangements in place, so that your data is protected.

We will also disclose information as required to enforce our terms of use as stated in the Terms and Conditions.

In the event of the sale of our business, or other business event, which results in us having to transfer your personal data to a third party, you will be notified via email, or notice posted on our website, to explain the identity of the new data controller and your options regarding your personal data.
