Where you have opted in to cookies, newsletters, or marketing communications, we rely on your consent (Article 6(1)(a)). For operational activities such as site analytics, security, and affiliate tracking, we rely on our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)), provided those interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Third Parties & Affiliate Links
derbyshirehealthcarerecords.org.uk contains affiliate links to licensed casino operators, including Aspers Casino. When you click such a link, you will be directed to an external website governed by that operator's own privacy policy. We may receive a commission if you register or deposit via our links; this does not affect the editorial independence of our reviews. We also use third-party analytics providers, such as Google Analytics, which may process anonymised data on our behalf. These providers are contractually bound to handle data securely and solely for the purposes we specify. We do not sell your personal data to any third party.
