Flutter International
The Flutter International (FI) division, one of two divisions within Flutter Entertainment, is comprised of various businesses and brands operating under five regions across Europe, Mediterranean, Africa, Asian Pacific and South America. Each Brand acts as a Controller of personal data in respect of its customers and employees within that Region. In the Flutter federated model, for certain Brands that share platforms and functions across Regions, such Brand may also operate as a Processor for another Region — performing processing activities on behalf of a Controller entity of the same Brand located in a different Region.
