Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Valhalla Social Casino, operating at valhallasocialcasino.com, handles information when you visit our website. We are committed to protecting your privacy and processing any personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
1. Who We Are
The data controller for this website is Valhalla Social Casino, accessible at valhallasocialcasino.com. For all privacy-related enquiries, please contact us at: privacy@valhallasocialcasino.com.
We do not have a Data Protection Officer (DPO) as our processing does not meet the threshold requiring one under UK GDPR Article 37.
2. What Data We Collect
We collect the minimum data necessary to operate the website. Specifically:
- Server logs — your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamp, retained for up to 30 days by our hosting infrastructure for security and diagnostic purposes.
- Cloudflare analytics — aggregated, privacy-preserving website traffic data provided by Cloudflare. No personal identifiers are included in this data.
- Email correspondence — if you contact us by email, we retain your email address and message content for up to 90 days to respond to your enquiry.
We do not collect: user accounts or registration data; payment or financial information; advertising or behavioural tracking data; social media profile data; or any data from players under 18 (access by minors is prohibited).
3. Legal Basis for Processing (UK GDPR Article 6)
We rely on the following legal bases:
- Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)) — for server logs and security monitoring. Our legitimate interest is maintaining a secure and functional website. This interest does not override your rights.
- Consent (Article 6(1)(a)) — not currently applicable as we do not set consent-based cookies or collect consent-dependent data.
4. Cookies
We use only technically necessary cookies set by Cloudflare as part of our hosting and security infrastructure. We set no advertising, analytics, or social media cookies. For full details, see our Cookie Policy.
5. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Cloudflare — provides DNS, content delivery, and DDoS protection. Cloudflare processes requests to our site and may log IP addresses in the course of providing these services. Cloudflare is bound by its own privacy policy and data processing addendum.
- Google Fonts — we load font files (Cinzel, Crimson Pro, Inter) from Google Fonts. When your browser loads these fonts, a request is made to Google's servers, which may log your IP address. You can prevent this by disabling web fonts in your browser settings.
We do not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or any other advertising or analytics platforms.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for commercial purposes. Data may be shared with:
- Our hosting and infrastructure providers (Cloudflare) as described above, under appropriate data processing agreements.
- Law enforcement or regulatory authorities where required by law.
7. Your Rights Under UK GDPR
You have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Right of access — you may request a copy of any personal data we hold about you.
- Right to rectification — you may request correction of inaccurate data.
- Right to erasure — you may request deletion of your data where there is no lawful reason to retain it.
- Right to restriction — you may request that we limit processing of your data in certain circumstances.
- Right to object — you may object to processing based on legitimate interests.
- Right to data portability — where applicable, you may receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at privacy@valhallasocialcasino.com. We will respond within 30 days. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing requests.
8. Children's Privacy
This website is strictly for UK adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If we become aware that data from a minor has been collected, we will delete it immediately. If you believe a minor has accessed this site, please contact us at privacy@valhallasocialcasino.com.
9. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical measures to protect personal data, including HTTPS with TLS 1.2 or higher for all data in transit, and Cloudflare's security services. No transmission over the internet is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security but take all reasonable steps to protect your data.
