Ep 446: Sky Bet’s data breach ruling and Labour’s gambling reform failings

In this episode of iGaming Daily, supported by Optimove, Martyn Elliott, SBC’s Project Director, and Ted Menmuir, SBC’s Content Director, focus on the implications of a court ruling against Sky Bet regarding the valid consent of a problem gambler being marketed to.The duo discuss why the case has drawn such significant attention, who is calling for intervention on advertising practices and data consent and question if this will lead to any revisions or reviews of the White Paper’s interpretation of gambling advertising.In the second half of the show, the conversation turns to the ongoing political discourse surrounding the Gambling Review’s White Paper, including asking why the Conservatives are criticising Labour’s implementation of proposals, Labour's response and the potential for petty politics to derail the implementation of the Gambling Review’s 2025 agenda.To find out more about the topics discussed in today's episode, click on the following links:- Sky Betting & Gaming to consider appeal against data breach ruling- DCMS hears of Labour failings on Gambling Review reformsHost: Martyn ElliottGuest: Ted MenmuirProducer: Anaya McDonaldEditor: James RossRemember to check out Optimove at https://hubs.la/Q02gLC5L0 or go to Optimove.com/sbc to get your first month free when buying the industry's leading customer-loyalty service.
