Sharing and Disclosure of Your Data
Your personal data is not sold to third parties. However, we may share information in the following circumstances:
Service Providers and Processors: We may engage third-party service providers (e.g., hosting providers, email delivery services, analytics platforms) to process data on our behalf. These processors are contractually bound to protect your data and use it only for the services we have engaged them to provide.
Legal Requirements and Protection: We may disclose your data if required by law, court order, government request, or to protect our legal rights, or the safety of our users and the public.

Aggregated and Anonymous Data: We may share aggregated or anonymised data (where individuals cannot be identified) with partners, advertisers, and the public for research, marketing, and other purposes.
International Data Transfers
299Bet operates globally, and your data may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from your own.
Where we transfer data internationally, we implement appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses and binding corporate rules, to ensure your data is protected in accordance with applicable privacy law.
By using 299Bet, you consent to the transfer of your data as described in this Privacy Policy.
Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. Retention periods vary depending on the type of data and the purpose:
- Contact Form Data: Typically retained for 1–3 years to address follow-up inquiries.

Once retention periods expire, we securely delete or anonymise your data. In some cases, you may request deletion earlier (see Your Rights section below).

Depending on your location and applicable data protection law, you may have the following rights:
Right of Access: You may request a copy of your personal data and how it is being processed.
Right to Correction: You may request that inaccurate or incomplete data be corrected.
Right to Deletion: You may request deletion of your data (subject to legal and legitimate retention obligations). This is sometimes called the "right to be forgotten."
Right to Restrict Processing: You may request that we limit how your data is used while we verify your request or dispute.
Right to Data Portability: You may request that your data be provided in a machine-readable format so you can transfer it to another service.
Right to Object: You may object to processing for marketing, profiling, or automated decision-making purposes.
Right to Withdraw Consent: If you have consented to processing (e.g., newsletter subscription), you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of prior processing.
Right to Lodge a Complaint: If you believe we have violated your privacy rights, you may file a complaint with the relevant data protection authority in your jurisdiction.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the channels on our Contact page. We will respond to your request within 30 days (or the timeframe specified by applicable law).
