How Harry Looks After Your Data
A plain-English look at what we collect, why we need it, and who you can contact if you have a privacy question.
Your Data at Harry: The Detail Behind the Policy
Last updated: September 23, 2026
This page goes beyond a standard privacy notice. It explains, step by step, what information we ask for at Harry, why payments and fraud checks require it, and how you can reach us if you want a question answered or a record removed.
When you register at Harry, you hand over some personal information. That's unavoidable for a licensed-style gambling operation, but it doesn't mean we collect more than we need. We work on a simple principle: we ask for what payment processors, fraud systems and UK regulators expect us to hold, nothing more.
What We Collect and Why
At sign-up we take your name, date of birth, email address and a UK contact number. That basic profile lets us confirm you're 18 or over, which is a strict requirement before any account is activated. Beyond that, the amount of extra data we ask for depends on how you play and how you fund your account.
- Identity details: full name, date of birth, residential address, used to confirm you're a genuine player and not operating multiple accounts.
- Payment details: card information, crypto wallet addresses or bank account details, used to process deposits and withdrawals via Visa, Mastercard, Revolut, bank transfer, Bitcoin, Ethereum or Tether (USDT).
- Device and session data: IP address, browser type, login times, used to detect unusual activity and protect your account from unauthorised access.
- Communication records: live chat transcripts and support emails, kept so our team can follow up on open queries.
- Gameplay data: bets, session length and game titles played, used for account history, dispute resolution and responsible gambling monitoring.
Verification for Payments and Fraud Prevention
Withdrawals trigger a closer look at your identity. This is standard across UK-facing payment processing and it protects both you and us. Before releasing larger withdrawals, we may ask for a copy of a government-issued ID, a recent utility bill or bank statement showing your address, and proof that a card or crypto wallet used for deposits actually belongs to you.
These checks exist because card networks, banking partners and crypto payment gateways all require operators to confirm the source of funds and the identity of the account holder. It's the same reasoning your bank applies when it flags an unusual transaction. We don't enjoy asking for paperwork any more than you enjoy sending it, but skipping this step isn't an option if we want to keep payments fast and reliable for everyone.
How Long We Keep Records
Account and transaction records are retained for as long as your account is active, and for a further period afterwards to satisfy financial record-keeping obligations that apply to gambling operators serving the UK market. Chat transcripts and support tickets are kept long enough to resolve any follow-up queries, then archived. If you close your account, some data is retained rather than deleted immediately, purely because financial and fraud-prevention rules require a paper trail.
Who Sees Your Data
We share data only where it's needed to run the service: payment processors handling your deposit or withdrawal, identity verification providers confirming your documents, and fraud-monitoring tools that flag suspicious patterns across the industry. We do not sell player data to marketing lists or unrelated third parties.
| Recipient | Purpose | Data Shared |
|---|---|---|
| Payment processors | Processing deposits and withdrawals | Card, bank or crypto wallet details, transaction amounts |
| Identity verification providers | Confirming age and identity | ID documents, proof of address |
| Fraud prevention services | Detecting multiple accounts or suspicious activity | IP address, device data, account history |
| Customer support tools | Managing live chat and email queries | Contact details, chat transcripts |
Your Rights and How to Reach Us
You can ask us what data we hold on you, request a correction, or ask for certain records to be deleted once retention obligations allow it. The quickest route is live chat, available around the clock, or you can email our support team directly. Ask for the privacy or data protection contact and we'll route your query to the right person.
