Our use of Personal Data

B&M SA uses the data we collect for three basic purposes, described in more detail below: (1) to operate our business and provide (including improving and personalizing) the products and services we offer, (2) in order to improve the quality of our service and (3) to send communications, including direct marketing and promotional communications (news/modifications/maintenance/promotions and contests etc.).

Business Operations: We use data to provide and improve the products and services we offer and perform essential business operations. We use data to develop aggregate analysis and business intelligence that enable us to operate, protect, make informed decisions (including profiling which is fully automatic decision making by our software applications and tools in order to provide you with more personalized offers and information), and report on the performance of our business and the services our customers’ desire.

Communications: We use data we collect to deliver and personalize our communications with you via e-mail, sms or social media. You can sign up for email subscriptions and choose whether you wish to receive promotional communications from B&M SA by email, telephone or social media.

All winnings are recorded on our secure system. betFIRST Casino keeps records of user wins and losses and will reveal them to a third party only when that third party is regulatory or government body.

Profiling: In the course of our services, we will analyze your information to build individual profiles. These profiles will be used to predict future interests and display targeted (online) advertisement. The aim is to provide you with offers that are relevant and interesting for you. The profiling is based on your behaviour on the internet. This includes the viewing of advertisements, any interaction with them, and the overlap between desktop and mobile usage. We expect that this profiling will have no further impact, other than providing you with a more pleasant user experience when using our website and services.

 

Why We Share Personal Data

We share your personal data in case we have a legal obligation to do so, for instance to the Gaming Commission, and in other cases with your consent or as necessary to complete any transaction or provide any service or product you have requested or authorized. In addition, we share personal data among B&M SA-controlled affiliates and entities. We also share personal data with suppliers, processors or agents working on our behalf for the purposes described in this statement. For example, companies we have hired to provide customer service or assist in protecting and securing our systems and services may need access to personal data in order to provide those functions. In such cases, these companies must abide by our data privacy and security requirements and are not allowed to use personal data they receive from us for any other purpose. We may also disclose personal data as part of a corporate transaction such as a merger or sale of assets.

Finally, we will access, transfer, disclose, and preserve personal data, including your content, when we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary to:

  • comply with applicable law or respond to valid legal process, including from law enforcement or other government agencies;
  • protect our customers, for example to prevent spam or attempts to defraud users of our services or products, or to help prevent the loss of life or serious injury of anyone;
  • operate and maintain the security of our products, including to prevent or stop an attack on our computer systems or networks; or
  • protect the rights or property of B&M SA, including enforcing the terms governing the use of the services – however, if we receive information indicating that someone is using our services to traffic in stolen intellectual or physical property of B&M SA, we will not inspect a customer’s private content ourselves, but we may refer the matter to law enforcement.

Some of our services or products include links to products of third parties whose privacy practices differ from B&M SA’s. If you provide personal data to any of those services or products, your data is governed by their privacy statements.

Cookies?

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer when visiting a website. This text file stores information that can be read by the website when visiting it again at a later date. Cookies can be installed by the server of the website you visit or by partners of that website. A website’s server can only read the cookies it has installed itself and has no access to other information found in your computer or mobile device. Cookies are stored in the folder of your browser on your computer or mobile device.

Cookies generally make the interaction between the visitor and the website faster and easier and help the visitor navigate between the different parts of a website. Some of these cookies are necessary because otherwise, the site is unable to function properly. Other cookies are convenient for the visitor: they remember your username in a secure way as well as your language preferences, for example. Cookies mean that you do not need to fill out the same information each time you visit a website.

Where do cookies come from?

Based on the origin of cookies, we make a distinction between first-party and third-party cookies.

Necessary cookies

First-party cookies are direct cookies that we manage ourselves. They are specific to the visited or used betFIRST online service. It is the online service that creates and places the cookies in order to function properly, for example.

Third party cookies

Third party cookies are cookies that are managed or placed by a third party and not by ourselves. This happens during your visit or use of a betFIRST online service. Third party cookies therefore ensure that certain data is sent to third parties through your visit or use of an online service. These are, for example, social media cookies or cookies from advertisers, which ensure that you get to see advertisements. Although we do not manage or place these cookies ourselves, we do our utmost to ensure that the placement of these cookies by third parties via our platforms is as controlled as possible.

How does BetFIRST use cookies?

BetFIRST uses cookies to help us provide you with a better user experience tailored to your personal preferences. By using cookies, BetFIRST makes sure that you do not receive or need to enter the same information every single time you visit the BetFIRST website. Cookies are also used to optimize the performance of the website. Different kinds of cookies are used on BetFIRSTs’ websites:

  • Necessary cookies
  • Functional cookies

Necessary cookies

  • Save settings for an optimal video display, such as the desired buffer size and the resolution data of your screen.
  • Read out your browser settings for an optimal display of our website on your screen.
  • Fill in the advertising space on our website in the best possible technical way. This enables us to avoid that the same advertisements are shown all the time, advertisers can measure the impact of the advertisements, or we can detect and tackle possible abuses via the advertising space.

No permission is required for the use of these cookies and they cannot be disabled.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies are cookies that make it easier for our websites to work, make them more pleasant for visitors, and ensure that you have a more personalized browsing experience. For example, these cookies can remember your language choice and customer segment.

Performance cookies

We use performance cookies to obtain information about visitors’ use of our websites, in order to improve the content of our websites, adapt them to the wishes of visitors, and make them more user-friendly. For instance, there is a cookie that counts the number of unique visitors, and a cookie that keeps track of the most popular pages.

Performance cookies are also called statistical cookies. They collect general information about how our online services are used. We may make statistical analyses of the information we obtain in this way. How did you end up on our webpage? Which (mobile) application do you spend most of your time on?

Personal identification data such as your name or address, which you have entered in your betFIRST profile, for example, will not be used for this purpose. We will always ask for your permission to display customized ads on our online services. We do this through the cookie settings that appear on your screen when you use our online services. You can also revoke your consent using the same settings at any time.


For your understanding, even if you have not given your consent, you will still see or hear advertisements on our online services. This advertising will then only be less relevant, because it will not be adapted to your likely interests. So we leave it up to you to choose whether or not to receive tailored advertisements.


Cookies for remarketing – This website uses cookies which, based on the pages you visit on this website, keeps a tally of the products or services you may be interested in.
