Cookie Policy

This cookie policy explains what cookies are, how this website uses them, what types of cookies we set, and how you can manage or disable them. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader information about how we handle personal data.

What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website operators about how visitors use their site. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third-party services operating on that website (third-party cookies).

Cookies can be session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually.

How We Use Cookies

This website uses cookies for three purposes: to ensure the site functions correctly, to understand how visitors use the site, and to support advertising and affiliate relationships that fund the site’s operation. We categorise our cookies as follows.

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the basic operation of the website. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, access to secure areas and consent preferences. The website cannot function properly without these cookies, and they cannot be disabled.

Essential cookies we use include cookies that store your cookie consent preference, cookies required for site security and cookies that maintain session state during your visit. These cookies do not collect personal data for marketing or analytics purposes.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website by collecting information about pages visited, time spent on each page, traffic sources and navigation paths. The data is aggregated and anonymised, meaning it cannot be used to identify individual visitors.

We use Google Analytics to collect this data. Google Analytics sets several cookies, including _ga (used to distinguish users, expires after 2 years), _ga_ followed by a property-specific identifier (used to maintain session state, expires after 2 years) and _gid (used to distinguish users, expires after 24 hours). Google’s privacy policy, including information about how Google Analytics processes data, is available at policies.google.com/privacy.

Analytics cookies are only set with your consent. If you do not consent, these cookies will not be placed and we will not collect analytics data from your visit.

Advertising and Affiliate Cookies

This website participates in affiliate marketing programmes. When you click an affiliate link to a casino or other third-party service, the affiliate network may set cookies on your device to track the referral. These cookies enable the affiliate network to attribute your visit to this website and to calculate any commission owed to us if you register or complete a qualifying action.

Affiliate cookies are set by the third-party network, not directly by this website. Their duration, content and purpose are governed by the respective network’s cookie and privacy policies. Common affiliate cookies have durations ranging from 30 to 90 days.

We may also use advertising cookies from networks that serve display advertisements on this website. These cookies help deliver relevant ads and measure their effectiveness. They may track your browsing activity across multiple websites to build a profile of your interests.

Advertising and affiliate cookies are only set with your consent, except where an affiliate cookie is triggered by your deliberate action of clicking an outbound affiliate link.

Your Cookie Choices

When you first visit this website, you will be presented with a cookie consent notice that allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site, which will trigger the consent notice again.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. All modern browsers allow you to view, block and delete cookies. The process differs by browser:

• Google Chrome — Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Other Site Data.
• Mozilla Firefox — Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data.
• Apple Safari — Preferences, then Privacy, then Manage Website Data.
• Microsoft Edge — Settings, then Cookies and Site Permissions, then Manage and Delete Cookies.

Blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of this website and other sites you visit. If you block essential cookies, some features may not work correctly.

Do Not Track

Some browsers include a Do Not Track (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to be tracked. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. We do not currently alter our data collection practices in response to DNT signals, but we respect your cookie consent preferences as described above.

Third-Party Cookies

Third-party services embedded on this website may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies and are not responsible for the data they collect. Third-party services that may set cookies include Google Analytics, affiliate networks, embedded content providers and advertising platforms. Each operates under its own privacy and cookie policy.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy to reflect changes in our practices, changes in the cookies used by our third-party partners, or changes in applicable law. Updates will be published on this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
