By using Agent No Wager, users consent to security checks, identity and age verification, and processing of payment data by authorised payment providers and verification partners, some of which act as independent controllers.
For self‑exclusion, we use and share necessary details to honour requests, including checks against GAMSTOP as required in Great Britain.
Young persons and age restrictions
The service is for adults aged 18 or over. Accounts must not be created or used by anyone under 18.
The operator cannot confirm age without appropriate documents. If a parent or guardian believes a minor has provided personal data, they should contact support. Once verified, the account will be closed and the child’s information will be deleted, subject to any legal obligations to retain limited records for fraud or law enforcement purposes.
International transfers of data
Personal data may be processed outside the UK in countries where our partners and service providers operate. By using the service, users consent to such transfers where consent is the appropriate legal basis. In other cases, transfers rely on lawful safeguards.
- Safeguards include UK adequacy regulations, the International Data Transfer Agreement or UK Addendum to the EU SCCs, and transfer risk assessments.
- All partners must keep information confidential, use it only for instructed purposes, and apply appropriate technical and organisational measures.
- Copies of key transfer safeguards can be requested, subject to commercial confidentiality.
