Privacy Policy
Last updated:
1. Who We Are
SportyBetGhana.com (“we”, “us”, “this website”) is an independent informational website about the SportyBet betting platform in Ghana.
We are not SportyBet, Sporty Group, or any affiliated company. We do not accept bets, hold player funds, or operate any gambling service.
For questions about this policy, contact us at info@sportybetghana@gmail.com.
2. What This Policy Covers
This policy explains how we handle personal data collected through this website, in line with Ghana’s Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843).
It does not cover SportyBet’s own website or app. If you follow a link from here to SportyBet, their privacy policy applies to everything you do there, including any account you open or data you submit. We have no access to your SportyBet account, balance, bets or documents.
3. Information We Collect
Information you give us. If you contact us by email or through a form on this site, we receive whatever you choose to send: typically your name, email address and the content of your message.
Information collected automatically. When you visit, our servers and analytics tools record technical data such as your IP address, approximate location (usually country or city level), browser type and version, device type and operating system, the pages you view, the time and date of your visit, and the website or search that brought you here.
We do not collect payment details, identity documents, or betting account credentials. There is no reason to send us any of these, and you should never do so.
4. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and comparable technologies for the following purposes:
Essential cookies keep the site functioning, remember your cookie preferences and maintain basic security. These cannot be switched off.
Analytics cookies help us understand which pages are read, how long visitors stay, and where our traffic comes from. This data is aggregated and is not used to identify you personally.
Affiliate tracking cookies record that you clicked through to an operator from this site, so that any commission due is correctly attributed. These typically store an anonymous identifier and a timestamp.
You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Doing so will not prevent you from reading this site, though some functions may behave differently.
5. How We Use Your Information
We use the data described above to operate and maintain the website, to understand which content is useful and improve it, to respond to messages you send us, to track affiliate referrals for commission purposes, to detect and prevent fraud, abuse and technical attacks, and to meet our legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal data. We do not share it with advertisers for their own marketing purposes.
6. Legal Basis for Processing
Under Act 843, we process personal data on the basis of your consent (for non-essential cookies, which you accept through our cookie notice), our legitimate interests in running and securing the website and measuring its performance, and where applicable our need to comply with legal obligations.
Visitors from the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom are additionally covered by the relevant provisions of the GDPR, and the same legal bases apply.
7. Who We Share Data With
We share limited data with service providers who help us run the site:
Hosting and infrastructure providers, who store the site and its server logs. Analytics providers, such as Google Analytics, which process usage data on our behalf. Affiliate networks and betting operators, which receive referral identifiers when you click an outward link, so that referrals can be attributed. Email providers, where you have contacted us directly.
We may also disclose information where required by law, court order or a competent regulator, or where necessary to protect our rights or the safety of others.
8. International Transfers
Some of our service providers process data outside Ghana. Where that happens, we take reasonable steps to ensure an appropriate level of protection, including relying on providers that offer recognised contractual safeguards.
9. How Long We Keep Data
Server logs and analytics data are retained for up to 26 months, after which they are deleted or fully anonymised. Email correspondence is kept for as long as needed to deal with your enquiry and for a reasonable period afterwards. Cookie lifespans vary by type and are disclosed in our cookie notice.
10. Your Rights
Under the Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843) you have the right to:
Access the personal data we hold about you. Correct data that is inaccurate or incomplete. Request deletion of your data where we have no continuing lawful reason to hold it. Object to or restrict processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interests. Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent. Complain to the Data Protection Commission of Ghana if you believe your data has been mishandled.
To exercise any of these rights, email [CONTACT EMAIL]. We will respond within the timeframe required by law. We may ask you to confirm your identity before acting on a request.
11. Security
We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the data we hold, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), restricted access to systems, and regular software updates. No website can guarantee absolute security, and we cannot promise that transmission over the internet is entirely risk-free.
12. Age Restriction
This website is intended for people aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal data, contact us and we will delete it.
