The privacy and security of your personal data is of the utmost importance to Boyle Bingo and we invest heavily in measures that help to protect your data protection rights.

 

This policy describes how and why we collect, store, process and manage the personal data we hold from our members. The term ‘Personal Data’ refers to any information relating to an identifiable individual or his or her personal identity.

 

This policy outlines how your data will be processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner. Boyle Bingo does not sell or rent your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes whatsoever.

 

We will ensure that the personal data we process is accurate, adequate, relevant and not excessive, given the purpose for which it was obtained.
