Privacy Policy

This page explains how we handle information gathered through ruggednature.co.uk. We keep things straightforward — no dense legal language, just a clear account of what we collect, why we collect it, and what rights you have over your own data.

What We Collect

When you browse our site, basic analytics data is gathered automatically — things like which pages were visited, how long a session lasted, and the general region a visit came from. None of this identifies you personally. If you reach out to us directly, whether through our contact form or by email, we also receive whatever you choose to share: typically a name and email address, plus the content of your message.

Why We Use Your Data

Analytics help us understand which reviews and guides are most useful so we can improve them. Contact details are used solely to reply to your enquiry. We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties — full stop. Our team has no commercial arrangement that involves passing your data to anyone else.

Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies to support site functionality and to collect the anonymous usage statistics described above. You can adjust or withdraw cookie consent at any time through your browser settings; most browsers let you block or delete cookies without affecting your ability to read the site. Disabling analytics cookies means we simply receive less information about how the site is used — nothing more.

Links to External Casinos

Our reviews and comparison tables contain links to casino operators. Once you follow one of those links, you are on a third-party site governed by its own privacy policy. We have no visibility into how those operators collect or use your data, so we strongly encourage you to read their privacy notices before creating an account or sharing any personal details with them.

How Long We Keep Data

Analytics data is retained only as long as it remains useful for improving the site, after which it is deleted or anonymised. Information you send us through a contact form or email is kept for as long as needed to resolve your query and is then removed from our records.

Your Rights

You have the right to ask what personal data we hold about you, to request a copy of it, or to ask us to delete it. To exercise any of these rights, or to raise a concern about how we handle your information, please use our contact page and we will respond promptly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this page from time to time as the site evolves or as data-handling practices change. The most current version will always be available here, so it is worth checking back occasionally if this matters to you.

This site is intended for readers aged 18 and over. If gambling is affecting you or someone you know, free support is available from GamCare and BeGambleAware.
