Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. By continuing to browse our site, you acknowledge the use of cookies as described in this policy.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They serve various purposes, from remembering your preferences to helping website operators understand how visitors interact with their content. Cookies are widely used across the internet and are essential for many website functions.

Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, and local storage. These technologies work alongside or instead of traditional cookies to achieve similar purposes. Throughout this policy, references to cookies include these related technologies unless otherwise specified.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for basic website functionality. They enable core features such as page navigation and access to secure areas. The website cannot function properly without these cookies. Essential cookies do not collect personal information for marketing purposes and are typically set in response to your actions, such as setting privacy preferences or filling in forms.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. They collect information about which pages are visited most often, how long visitors spend on different sections, and how visitors navigate through the site. This information is aggregated and anonymised, meaning it cannot identify individual visitors.

We use analytics data to improve our content and user experience. Understanding which guides are most useful helps us prioritise updates and develop new content that serves our readers better.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may remember choices you make, such as your preferred language or region, to provide a more personalised experience. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website are placed by third-party services. These include analytics providers that help us measure website traffic and understand user behaviour. Third-party cookies are governed by the respective privacy policies of those providers.

When you click links to external websites, including online casinos, those sites may set their own cookies. We have no control over third-party cookies and recommend reviewing the cookie policies of any external sites you visit.

Cookie Duration

Cookies have varying lifespans depending on their purpose. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. They are used for essential functions like maintaining your session as you navigate between pages.

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually. They are used for purposes such as remembering your preferences between visits. The duration of persistent cookies varies but typically ranges from a few days to two years.

Managing Cookies

You have control over cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view what cookies are stored on your device, delete individual cookies or all cookies, block third-party cookies, block cookies from specific sites, block all cookies, and delete all cookies when you close your browser.

The process for managing cookies varies between browsers. Consult your browser’s help documentation for specific instructions. Common browsers include Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Microsoft Edge, and Opera.

Impact of Disabling Cookies

If you choose to disable cookies, some features of our website may not function as intended. Essential cookies are required for basic site operation, so blocking them entirely may prevent you from accessing certain pages or features.

Disabling analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use our website but will prevent us from collecting data about your visit. This limits our ability to improve the site based on usage patterns.

Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a Do Not Track setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that your activity not be tracked. There is currently no universal standard for how websites should respond to these signals. Our website does not currently alter its behaviour in response to Do Not Track signals, but you can control tracking through cookie settings as described above.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes, we will update the policy on this page. We encourage you to review this policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies.

Cookies and Gambling Websites

Our website provides information about non-GamStop casinos. When you visit third-party casino websites through links on our site, those operators will use their own cookies for purposes including tracking your gambling activity, managing your account, remembering your preferences, and marketing purposes.

Casino cookies are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of each respective operator. If you have concerns about how casinos use cookies, we recommend reviewing their policies before registering or playing.
