Privacy Policy
This page explains what happens to your information when you visit Best Gambling Apps. You can read every page without signing up for anything, because the site collects no personal information.
What we collect
- Reading is all the site asks of you. There is no contact form, no newsletter, no account and no login on this site.
- We do not ask for your name, your email address, your phone number or your date of birth. There is nowhere on the site to enter them.
- We do not sell, share or pass on personal information, because we do not hold any to pass on.
- Email is the one way to reach us, at info@bestgamblingapps.co.za. Tell us the page and the line you are writing about, and keep your ID number, password and banking details for your operator, because we never need them.
What the site does
- It shows you pages to read. If you settle on an app, you sign up on that operator’s own site or app, not here.
- It sets no tracking or advertising cookies and does no profiling, so nothing on it follows you around the internet or builds a picture of you, as the cookie policy explains.
- Our web host keeps ordinary server records to keep the site running and secure.
When you leave this site
- Operators have their own policies. Once you click through to a betting site or open an account with one, you are dealing with that company, under its terms and its privacy policy, and its own cookie policy applies from the moment you land.
- A commercial link to an operator may record that your visit came from us, so the operator knows where to send any fee if you open an account. It records the referral rather than who you are, as our affiliate disclosure explains.
- We have no access to your account with them, your balance, your bets or your FICA documents. We do not run any of the apps listed here, so the operator is the one to ask about anything it holds.
- Read their policy before you register, because that is the one that governs your personal information.
Children
This site is for adults aged 18 and over. It is not aimed at children and carries nothing designed to appeal to them. Betway sets the same limit: its footer says that no one under the age of 18 may bet.
Changes to this page
If the site ever starts collecting information, this page will say so plainly before it starts, and the cookie policy will change on the same day.
Privacy policy FAQ
Who holds my FICA documents?
The operator you open an account with. Betway, for example, verifies who you are under the Financial Intelligence Centre Act, and can ask you to upload an identity document, with both sides of a smart card ID or driver’s licence, and a statement for a South African bank account no older than three months from the day you registered. The documents go to the operator, and its own privacy policy covers how it keeps them.
How do I find an operator’s privacy policy?
Look in the footer of the operator’s site. Betway lists its Privacy Policy among the links at the foot of its pages, along with its terms and its responsible gaming page.
Betting is for adults aged 18 and over. If it is costing you more than you can afford, call the National Responsible Gambling Programme free on 0800 006 008 or send HELP on WhatsApp to 076 675 0710. Our responsible gambling page lists free help in South Africa, and our cookie policy covers the cookies operators set when you follow a link to them.
