We are an independent non-departmental public body sponsored by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, a department of the United Kingdom government.</p> <p>The Gambling Commission was set up under the Gambling Act 2005 (the Gambling Act) to regulate commercial gambling in Great Britain in partnership with licensing authorities. We also regulate the National Lottery under the National Lottery etc. Act 1993.</p> <p>In order to carry out our regulatory functions and meet our legal responsibilities, we need to collect certain personal data and, when we do, we are a ‘data controller’ of that information for the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (the GDPR) (which applies across the European Union including the United Kingdom), the Data Protection Act 2018 (the Data Protection Act) which supplements GDPR, extends its application in the UK, and implements the Law Enforcement Directive (which relates to processing personal data for law enforcement purposes) (the LED) in the UK.</p> <!-- Pager --> <!-- Guide can only have next page as it's always first --> <a href="/about-us/guide/page/what-is-personal-data-and-special-category-data" class="gcweb-pagination gcweb-pagination--right"> <strong>Next page</strong> <br> <span class="">What is personal data and special category data?</span> </a> <div class="print-hide"> <hr class="govuk-section-break govuk-section-break--l govuk-section-break--visible gcweb-section-break--fat"> <p>Last updated: 17 April 2024</p> <details class="govuk-details" data-module="govuk-details"> <summary class="govuk-details__summary"> <span class="govuk-details__summary-text"> Show updates to this content </span> </summary> <div class="govuk-details__text"> <p>Recruitment privacy policy removed, recruitment privacy notice added.</p> </div> </details> </div> </div> <div class="govuk-grid-column-one-quarter"> <aside> <div class="govuk-width-container"> <div class="govuk-grid-row"> <div class="govuk-grid-column-two-thirds"> </div> <div class="govuk-grid-column-full"> <div class="govuk-grid-row gcweb-stats-metadata"> <div class="govuk-grid-column-full"> </div> <div class="-margin-bottom-3"></div> <!-- <h3 class="gcweb-body govuk-!-margin-bottom-3"><strong>Published</strong><br /> 11 May 2018 </h3> --> <!-- <p class="gcweb-body govuk-!-margin-bottom-3"><strong>Last updated</strong><br /> 17 April 2024 - <a href="#changes">Changes</a> </p> --> </div> </div> </div> </div> </aside> <aside class="app-related-items "> <h3 class="govuk-heading-s"> Document actions </h3> <a class="print_link" href="/about-us/print/privacy-policy" target="_Blank">Print or save (opens in new tab)</a> </aside> </div> </div> </div> </div> <script type="text/javascript" id="active-nav" src="/public/javascripts/active-nav.js" data-active="nav-about-us" data-navigation-active="nav-section-what-we-do"></script> </main> <div class="gc-beta-banner" data-nosnippet="true" id="feedback-section"> <div class=" govuk-width-container"> <div class="govuk-grid-row"> <div class="govuk-grid-column-two-thirds"> <div id="panel-buttons" class="gcweb-show"> <strong class="gcweb-heading-m govuk-!-margin-bottom-2" role="heading" aria-level="2">Is this page useful?</strong> <button id="feedback-yes" class="gcweb-feedback-button">Yes <span class="govuk-visually-hidden">this page is helpful</span></button> <button id="feedback-no" class="gcweb-feedback-button">No <span class="govuk-visually-hidden">this page is not helpful</span></button> <button id="feedback-more" class="gcweb-feedback-button">Report a problem with this page</button> </div> <div id="panel-message" class="gcweb-hide" role="alert"><span class="gcweb-heading-m govuk-!-margin-bottom-0" aria-hidden="true" role="heading" aria-level="3">Thank you for your feedback.
