This privacy policy explains how Monmore Greyhound Results collects, uses and protects information when you visit this website. We are committed to keeping your data safe and being transparent about our practices. This policy applies to all pages on this site, including race result guides, track analysis, statistical breakdowns and glossary content.
Information We Collect
We collect limited, non-personal data to understand how visitors use this site and to improve its content. This includes technical information transmitted automatically by your browser: your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time spent on each page and the date and time of your visit. We do not collect names, email addresses, payment details or any other personally identifiable information unless you voluntarily provide it through a contact form or email.
How We Use Your Information
The technical data we collect is used for the following purposes: analysing traffic patterns to understand which sections of the site are most useful to visitors, identifying technical problems such as broken pages or slow load times, improving content by understanding which topics attract the most interest, and ensuring the site functions correctly across different devices and browsers. We do not use your data for profiling, automated decision-making or targeted advertising based on personal characteristics.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
This site uses cookies and similar technologies. A detailed explanation of the cookies we deploy, their purpose and how to manage them is available in our Cookie Policy. In summary, we use essential cookies required for the site to function and analytics cookies that help us measure visitor numbers and behaviour. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify individual users.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party analytics services to process visitor data on our behalf. These services operate under their own privacy policies and are contractually required to handle data in accordance with applicable data protection law. We do not sell, rent or share your personal data with third parties for their own marketing purposes. Where we link to external websites, such as the Greyhound Board of Great Britain, the UK Gambling Commission or individual bookmaker sites, those sites operate under their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review.
Data Retention
Analytics data is retained in aggregated form for up to 26 months from the date of collection. Server logs containing IP addresses are retained for a maximum of 90 days for security and troubleshooting purposes, after which they are deleted. We do not maintain long-term records of individual visitor activity.
Your Rights
Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have the right to access any personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate data, request deletion of your data, object to the processing of your data, and request restriction of processing. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office if you believe your data has been handled improperly. Details of how to contact the ICO are available at ico.org.uk.
Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the data we process. These include encrypted connections via HTTPS across the entire site, restricted access to server infrastructure and regular review of our data handling practices. No method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure, but we take reasonable precautions to minimise risk.
