How we handle your personal data
The controller of personal data on Before You Install is [legal entity name and CRO number: to be supplied by the owner]. The site has no accounts, no bet data and no forms of its own. Data comes from basic visits and, only after consent, analytics. This is a draft for a lawyer's review. Your complaints go to the Data Protection Commission (DPC).
