Privacy Policy
Last updated: 19 June 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how ufc bet Online (“we”, “our” or “the site”) collects, uses and protects information about visitors who read our UK-focused UFC betting content. We publish independent editorial material only. We do not operate a betting service, we do not accept wagers and we do not process payments.
Who we are
ufc bet Online is an editorial website producing UK-facing guides on UFC and MMA betting, covering the UK Gambling Commission framework, tax changes, betting markets and responsible-gambling resources. The site is published by the editorial team behind the domain and is not affiliated with any licensed operator, media rights holder or regulatory body.
What information we collect
We aim to collect as little personal information as possible. The information that may be recorded when you use the site falls into the following categories.
Technical log data. When you load a page, our hosting environment automatically records standard server request data. This typically includes your IP address, the date and time of the request, the pages requested, the referring URL (if any) and your browser’s user-agent string. This data is used for operational purposes such as error diagnosis, security monitoring and abuse prevention.
Analytics data. If we run an analytics tool, it may set cookies or use similar technologies to count visits, measure page performance and understand which content is most useful to readers. Any analytics provider we use is chosen for its compliance with UK data protection law and is configured to minimise the data collected about individual users where practical.
Information you voluntarily submit. If we make a feedback or contact form available and you choose to use it, we will receive the information you type into that form. We do not require you to create an account, and we do not run a newsletter or any other marketing list at this time.
Lawful basis for processing
Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, we rely on the following lawful bases to process any personal data collected through the site: legitimate interests (running a secure, measurable editorial site), consent (where you give it, for example via the cookie banner for non-essential cookies), and legal obligation (where we must retain certain records to comply with UK law).
How we use information
We use the information we collect to operate and maintain the site, to understand how our content is read, to diagnose technical problems, to protect against abuse, and to improve the quality of our articles. We do not sell personal data. We do not share data with advertisers for behavioural targeting on external sites. We do not build marketing profiles of readers.
Cookies and similar technologies
Some cookies are essential for the site to load and render correctly. Other cookies — such as those set by analytics tools — are used with your consent where required. Full details are in our Cookie Policy, including how to withdraw consent and how to control cookies at the browser level.
Third parties
The site links to external websites, including the UK Gambling Commission, GamCare, GamStop, BeGambleAware, HM Treasury, NHS gambling support, the Betting and Gaming Council, and UFC.com. We link to these third parties because they are authoritative sources for our readers. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external websites, and we encourage you to read their own privacy notices.
We may use content delivery networks, font providers and hosting providers in order to serve the site. These providers may process technical data (such as IP address) in the course of delivering pages to your browser. We select providers that commit to appropriate data protection standards.
How long we retain data
Server log data is typically retained for a short operational period consistent with standard industry practice, then deleted or aggregated so that individuals can no longer be identified. Analytics data is retained only for as long as needed to understand content performance. If you submit information through a form, we retain it only for as long as is necessary to respond to your message and to meet any relevant legal obligation.
Your rights under UK GDPR
If personal data about you is held by the site, you have rights under UK data protection law. These include the right to be informed about the processing, the right of access, the right to rectification of inaccurate data, the right to erasure in certain circumstances, the right to restrict processing, the right to data portability, and the right to object to processing. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection.
Children
Our content is intended for adults aged 18 and over. Gambling is an adults-only activity in the UK. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children, and the site is not directed at anyone under 18. If you believe a child has submitted personal data to us, please contact us and we will delete it.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the information held by the site. No internet-based service can be guaranteed to be completely secure, but we aim to apply standards appropriate to the nature of the data we hold, which is minimal.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the site, UK law, or best practice. The date at the top of the page indicates when the policy was last revised. Material changes will be flagged at the top of the page for a reasonable period.
How to contact us
If you have a question about this policy or about how your data is handled, please use the contact channel published on our About Us page. Requests relating to data protection rights are handled without undue delay and normally within one month, as required by UK GDPR.
