Who we are and what this policy covers
1winsng.ng is an independent review website about the online casino and sportsbook 1win. We do not run player accounts, take deposits or verify identities. This policy explains the small amount of personal data we handle when you read our pages, write to us or click through to 1win, and how you can control it.
This Privacy Policy applies only to the review website 1winsng.ng. The site publishes editorial reviews and information about 1win for readers in Nigeria aged 18 and over. It is not the casino. We do not open accounts, process payments, hold balances or carry out identity (KYC) checks. Any account, deposit, withdrawal or verification data you give to 1win is handled by 1win under its own privacy policy, not by us. For context, 1win states that it holds a licence from the Oyo State Gaming and Lottery Board (License No. OYSGB/CASB/2592001) and National Sports Betting Permit No. 00000045 from the National Lottery Regulatory Commission. A state-level licence authorises an operator to offer gaming within that state’s regulatory framework. It does not make us part of the operator or its regulators’ oversight of our site.
What data we collect
We aim to collect as little as possible. Server logs: when you load a page, our hosting infrastructure automatically records technical details such as your IP address, browser type, device type, the page requested, the referring page and the date and time. These logs help us keep the site secure and working. Analytics: with your consent, we use analytics cookies or similar tools to understand how readers use the site. These include pages viewed, time on page and approximate location derived from your IP address. We look at this information in aggregated form. Cookies: we use essential cookies needed for the site to function, such as keeping pages loading correctly. Analytics and affiliate cookies are optional (see the cookie section). Emails: if you write to us, we receive your email address, your name if you give it, and the content of your message. We do not ask for sensitive data. Please do not send us identity documents, bank details or card numbers. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.
Affiliate links and click-through tracking
Some links on 1winsng.ng are affiliate links. When you click one, a tracking parameter or cookie may be set. It records that you arrived at 1win from our site so that we can earn a commission if you register. This does not change our ratings, and it does not give us access to your account or activity with 1win. The tracking typically involves a click identifier, a timestamp and technical browser data. From the moment you land on 1win’s website, 1win’s own privacy policy and terms apply to any data you provide there. These include registration details, payment information and identity verification documents. Please read 1win’s policy before you sign up. We are not responsible for how 1win processes your data.
Why we use your data and our legal basis
We process personal data on the following legal bases, in line with the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and generally recognised GDPR-style principles. Legitimate interests: running, securing and troubleshooting the site through server logs, and responding to messages you send us. Consent: setting non-essential analytics and affiliate tracking cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time. Legal obligation: keeping or disclosing information where the law requires it. We do not sell your personal data. We do not use it for automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you.
How long we keep data
We keep data only as long as we need it for the purposes above. Server logs are kept for a limited period for security and diagnostics and are then deleted or anonymised. Analytics data is held in aggregated or pseudonymised form under the retention settings of our analytics tool. Emails are kept for as long as needed to deal with your enquiry and any follow-up, and are then deleted. Cookie lifetimes vary by cookie; you can delete cookies from your browser at any time. Where we use service providers such as hosting or analytics, they process data on our behalf under appropriate agreements. Some of these providers may be located outside Nigeria. Where that happens, we rely on safeguards that the law recognises.
Your cookie choices
You control cookies through your browser: you can delete cookies set by this site at any time, or block analytics and affiliate cookies in your browser settings. Most browsers also let you block cookies entirely or alert you before one is set. Blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the site from working properly. Rejecting analytics or affiliate cookies will not affect your ability to read our reviews.
Your rights and how to contact us
Depending on the law that applies to you, you have the following rights. You may request access to the personal data we hold about you, and ask us to correct (rectify) inaccurate data. You may ask us to erase your data, restrict how we process it, or object to processing based on legitimate interests. You may withdraw consent at any time and request data portability where applicable. To make a request, use the contact form or the contact email published on 1winsng.ng and write ‘Privacy request’ in the subject line. We may ask for reasonable information to confirm your identity, and we will respond within the time the law requires. If you are unhappy with our response, you may complain to the data protection authority in your country. Requests about your 1win account, deposits, verification or self-exclusion must go to 1win directly through its own support channels, because we do not hold that data.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when our practices, tools or legal requirements change. The current version is always available on this page. If we make significant changes, we will make that clear on the site. Your continued use of 1winsng.ng after an update means the revised policy applies to your visits from that point.
