Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of the features and functionality of the Site.

Geolocation and Location Verification

Sports betting legality varies significantly by jurisdiction, and the Site provides sports betting information content that may be subject to different legal requirements depending on your location. To help ensure that our services are accessed in compliance with applicable laws and to enhance your user experience, we collect and process geolocation data from your device, IP address, and other location indicators. This location information is used to:

How We Protect Information We Collect

We use commercially reasonable security measures, including administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of the information you provide when visiting or using the Site and services.

International Data Transfers

Your Personal Information may be transferred to, stored at, and processed in destinations outside of your country of residence, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and other countries where we, our affiliates, or our service providers maintain facilities.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, your Personal Information may be transferred to countries that have not been deemed to provide an adequate level of data protection by the European Commission or UK Government.

If you would like more information about the safeguards we use for international transfers or to obtain a copy of the relevant Standard Contractual Clauses, please contact us at privacy@openbet.com or customerService@donbest.com.

How Long We Keep User Information

We retain your Personal Information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services to you, to maintain our business relationship with you, and to comply with our legal obligations. The retention period depends on the nature of the information and the purposes for which it was collected. In determining retention periods, we consider the following factors: guidance from regulatory agencies, industry best practices, and applicable gambling/betting regulations; the purposes for which the Personal Information was collected and whether those purposes remain valid; our ongoing ability to ensure the accuracy of the data; legal, accounting, and regulatory requirements, including potential litigation hold obligations; and the business rationale for collection and whether the purpose for which data was collected has expired.

We will retain a copy of your contact details if you object or opt out of receiving direct marketing communications from us. We will add your details to our suppression list to help ensure you do not receive future marketing communications from us. We will not delete Personal Information if it is relevant to an investigation, dispute, or pending legal matter. Such data will continue to be stored until those issues are fully resolved and it can be lawfully deleted. Upon expiration of the applicable retention period, we will securely delete or anonymize your Personal Information in accordance with our data retention policies and applicable law.

Do Not Track

Our Site does not collect personal information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services. Therefore, "do not track" signals transmitted from web browsers do not apply to our Site, and we do not alter any of our data collection and use practices upon receipt of such a signal.

Social Media

We use social media and networking platforms to communicate with our users and promote our sports betting information content, including platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn. This Privacy Notice applies to our use of Personal Information you submit to us through our Site, but it does not govern what those third-party platforms do with your information. Those platforms have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.

Our services may include features that allow you to share content from our Site to your social media profiles or to create an account on our services using your social media credentials. If you choose to do so, Personal Information that you have provided to that third-party platform may be made available to us pursuant to that platform's terms and privacy notice. By using such features, you consent to our use of that Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Notice.

We may also include tools on our Site that allow you to share odds, picks, betting analysis, or other content from our Site to your social media profiles. When you use these sharing features, the third-party social media platforms may collect information about you and your activity. Please review the privacy policies of those platforms to understand how they will use your information.

The Site may receive information about you from social media platforms, including information about your interests, demographics, and interactions with betting-related content, which we may use to improve our services and tailor content to you. We may also use social media advertising tools to deliver targeted advertisements about our sports betting information services to users who have shown interest in similar content or who fit certain demographic profiles that align with our target audience.

Automated Processing and Profiling

Individuals have the right not to be subject to solely automated decision-making, including profiling, that produces legal or similarly significant effects without human review.

Our Site does not use solely automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning you. We do not make automated decisions about your legal rights, access to services, or other matters that significantly affect you without human involvement.

However, we use automated processing and profiling to enhance your experience with our services, including:

• Personalizing odds displays, picks, and content recommendations based on your viewing history, sports preferences, and interaction patterns;
• Customizing promotional offers and third-party sportsbook information based on your interests and location;
• Analyzing user behavior to improve our services, develop new features, and optimize content delivery;
• Detecting and preventing fraudulent or abusive activity on our Site.

These automated tools support and inform how we deliver content to you but do not make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects. The personalization features are designed to enhance your experience and provide you with relevant sports betting information.

If you have concerns about how automated processing is applied to your information, or if you wish to opt out of certain personalization features, please contact us at privacy@openbet.com or customerService@donbest.com.
