Privacy Policy

Last updated: 20 August 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Betting mma (“we”, “our”, “the site”) collects, uses and protects information about visitors to our website. We are committed to processing personal data lawfully, fairly and transparently in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Who we are

Betting mma is an independent editorial publication covering MMA and UFC betting topics relevant to UK readers. We are the data controller for personal data processed through this website. We do not accept bets, hold customer funds or operate any gambling product.

Information we collect

We collect a limited set of information when you visit Betting mma.

Technical data is collected automatically when you load any page. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, the referring page that sent you to us, the pages you view on our site, and the date and time of your visit. This information is used to operate the site reliably, to detect abuse, and to understand which content is read.

Analytics data is collected through third-party analytics tools that may set cookies or use similar technologies. This data is aggregated where possible and is used to improve the quality and relevance of our published guides.

Communication data is collected only when you contact us voluntarily. If you send us an email, we will see your email address and the contents of your message. We use that data only to respond to your enquiry.

Lawful bases for processing

We rely on the following lawful bases under UK GDPR. We process technical data on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating a secure and functional website. We process analytics data on the basis of your consent, which you give or withdraw through our cookie controls. We process correspondence on the basis of our legitimate interest in answering reader enquiries.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies to make the site work, to remember your preferences, and to measure how the site is used. Our Cookie Policy describes each category of cookie in detail and explains how you can control them. You can change your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings.

How long we keep your information

Technical and analytics logs are retained for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out above, and are then deleted or anonymised. Email correspondence is retained for as long as is necessary to maintain a coherent reply thread, after which it is archived or deleted in line with our internal retention schedule.

Sharing your information

We do not sell personal data. We may share limited technical data with the service providers that host our site, deliver our analytics, and protect us against fraud and abuse. These providers act on our instructions and are bound by contractual confidentiality and data-protection terms. We may disclose information if we are required to do so by UK law, by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or by a request from a UK regulator acting within its powers.

International transfers

Where any of our service providers are based outside the United Kingdom, we ensure that any transfer of personal data is protected by safeguards recognised under UK data-protection law, including standard contractual clauses or transfers to jurisdictions covered by a UK adequacy decision.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data. You can request access to the personal data we hold about you. You can ask us to correct inaccurate data or to complete incomplete data. You can ask us to erase personal data in certain circumstances. You can ask us to restrict our processing of your personal data, or to provide it in a portable format. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time. You can also object to processing that we carry out on the basis of legitimate interest.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us through the routes published on our About Us page. We will respond within one calendar month. If you are not satisfied with how we have handled your request, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority.

Security

We apply reasonable and appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against accidental loss, unlawful destruction, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access. No internet transmission is ever completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children

Betting mma is intended for adults aged 18 or over. The content covers gambling and is not suitable for minors. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data to us, please contact us and we will remove it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will always show the most recent revision. Material changes will be highlighted on the home page or otherwise communicated where appropriate.
