This cookie policy explains what cookies are, how this website uses them, and how you can manage your preferences. This site complies with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to remember your preferences, and to collect information about how visitors use a site. Cookies can be set by the site you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third-party services embedded in the page (third-party cookies).
Cookies may persist for different durations. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the basic operation of the website. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and display of content. These cookies do not collect personal data used for marketing and cannot be disabled without affecting how the site functions.
Essential cookies used on this site may include cookies that maintain your session state as you navigate between pages and cookies that record your cookie consent preference so that you are not asked repeatedly.
Legal basis: legitimate interest in providing a functional website. These cookies are deployed without requiring separate consent because the site cannot operate properly without them.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies collect anonymised information about how visitors use the website — which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors spend on each page, and which links are clicked. This data helps us understand how the site is used and identify areas for improvement.
Analytics data is aggregated and cannot be used to identify individual visitors. We use this information exclusively for internal reporting and content improvement purposes. Analytics cookies are only set after you provide consent through our cookie consent mechanism.
If this site uses Google Analytics, those cookies operate under Google’s Privacy Policy. Google Analytics cookies typically include _ga (used to distinguish unique visitors, persistent for 2 years), _ga_* (used to maintain session state, persistent for 2 years), and _gid (used to distinguish visitors, persistent for 24 hours). IP anonymisation is enabled where applicable.
Legal basis: consent. Analytics cookies are only activated after you explicitly opt in.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred colour scheme (light or dark mode) if the site offers a theme toggle. These cookies improve your browsing experience by retaining settings between visits.
Preference cookies do not track your behaviour across other websites and do not collect data used for advertising. They are set only when you actively make a choice that triggers them.
Legal basis: consent for non-essential preferences, or legitimate interest where the preference directly affects site functionality.
Third-Party Cookies
This site loads resources from third-party services that may set their own cookies. These include Google Fonts, which delivers the typefaces used on the site and may place cookies or log requests in accordance with Google’s policies.
If this site contains affiliate links to casino operators, clicking those links will take you to the operator’s website, which will set its own cookies under its own cookie and privacy policies. We have no control over third-party cookies set on external sites.
This site does not use cookies for targeted advertising, retargeting, or behavioural profiling.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit this site, you will be presented with a cookie consent notice allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site, which will trigger the consent notice again.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies. The following links provide instructions for the most common browsers:
Google Chrome — manage cookies in Chrome settings.
Mozilla Firefox — enhanced tracking protection and cookie management.
Apple Safari — manage cookies and website data on Mac.
Microsoft Edge — manage cookies in Edge settings.
Blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of this site and other websites you visit. Blocking essential cookies will prevent the site from remembering your consent preference and may affect navigation.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this cookie policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use, in third-party services, or in applicable law. The “last updated” date at the top of this page indicates when the most recent revision was published.
