About Me

Darren Whitmore
Here's me, posing!

Hi, I’m Darren Whitmore – a content editor, freelance writer, and the founder of Compliance Insider.

After spending over a decade working closely with iGaming clients across Europe, I found myself constantly deep in the weeds of gambling regulation. From writing content for operators navigating new licensing rules to editing in-depth guides on AML procedures and responsible gambling policies, I realized something important: there wasn’t a single, accessible place where all the latest regulatory developments were collected, explained, and made easy to follow.

That’s what sparked Compliance Insider.

This platform was born out of necessity—both mine and the industry’s. I wanted to create a simple, reliable hub for everyone working in or around online gambling: operators, legal teams, compliance officers, affiliate marketers, and even players who care about transparency. Here, you’ll find clear, well-researched updates on laws, guidelines, and enforcement actions affecting the iGaming world, particularly in Europe.

I’m not a lawyer. I’m a writer who’s spent years translating complex regulation into actionable, readable content. My aim is to bridge the gap between legislation and understanding, making sure our readers never miss a change that could affect their business—or their play.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope Compliance Insider becomes your go-to resource for staying ahead in the ever-evolving world of iGaming compliance.

Feel free to get in touch if you’d like to collaborate or have something worth covering.
