Whenever we share your data with third parties acting as processors, we ensure that appropriate data processing agreements and safeguards are in place, obliging them to process the data only on our documented instructions and to maintain suitable security standards.
International Transfers
As an operator registered in Curaçao with technical infrastructure and partners located in multiple jurisdictions, we may transfer your personal data to countries outside the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area (EEA), including to Curaçao and Cyprus.

Safeguards for international transfers
- Contractual protections: Where required, we implement standard contractual clauses (SCCs) or other appropriate contractual safeguards recognised under the UK GDPR and GDPR to ensure an adequate level of protection for your data.

Data Retention
We retain personal data for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including for satisfying legal, accounting, reporting, and regulatory obligations and for the defence of legal claims.
Retention periods by category

Deletion and anonymisation
- Deletion: When data is no longer required, we either securely delete it or anonymise it so that it can no longer be linked to you.
- User requests: Where you request erasure and the conditions under data protection law are met, we will delete or anonymise your data earlier, subject to any overriding legal obligations.
- Backups: Data may persist in system backups for limited periods before being overwritten in line with our backup and disaster recovery policies.
Your Rights
Subject to the conditions and limitations set out in the UK GDPR, GDPR, and comparable international frameworks, including Mexican data protection law where applicable, you have a number of rights concerning your personal data processed in connection with Bet Visa on betivisa.com.
Core data protection rights
- Right of access: To obtain confirmation as to whether we process your personal data and, if so, to receive a copy and information about the processing.
- Right to rectification: To have inaccurate personal data corrected and incomplete data completed.
- Right to erasure: To request deletion of your personal data where there is no valid reason for us to continue processing it (for example where data is no longer needed, or where you have withdrawn consent and no other legal basis applies), subject to our legal obligations to retain certain information.
- Right to restriction: To request that we restrict processing of your data in certain cases, for example where you contest its accuracy or object to processing.
- Right to object: To object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling, and to object at any time to processing of your data for direct marketing purposes.
- Right to data portability: To receive personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and, where technically feasible, to request that we transmit it to another controller.
- Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on your consent (for example marketing), you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
Alignment with Mexican privacy law
While VB Digital N.V. is established in Curaçao and not in Mexico, we aim to respect rights that are broadly consistent with those granted by the Mexican Federal Law on Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties and its Regulations (such as rights of access, rectification, cancellation, and opposition) for users located in Mexico who access betivisa.com. In practice, these rights are handled through the mechanisms described in this section and in the "Complaints & Contacts" section.
How to exercise your rights
- Request channels: You may exercise your rights by contacting our DPO at privacy@betivisa.com or by using the secure messaging tools or contact forms available through your Bet Visa account on betivisa.com.
- Information required: For your protection, we may ask you to confirm certain account details or provide additional information to verify your identity before we respond to a request.
- Response time: We aim to respond to all valid requests within one (1) month of receipt. In complex cases or where multiple requests are made, this period may be extended by a further one (1) month. We will notify you of any such extension and explain the reasons.
- Charges: We will handle your requests free of charge unless they are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in which case we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act on the request.
Some rights may be limited, for example where fulfilling your request would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others, or where we are legally required to retain certain data (for example under anti-money laundering regulations).
