Cookie Policy

How we use cookies

Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device to help it work and keep your choices. We use them to hold your language and currency settings, keep the site running and understand how our pages are used so we can improve them. This page explains which types we rely on and how you stay in control of them at all times. Because we are a review site rather than a casino, we set no login or cashier cookies of our own.

What a cookie actually is

A cookie holds a short string of data that your browser sends back to us on your next visit. Nothing in it identifies you personally on its own, and it cannot read files or run programs on your device. We treat the information gathered this way purely as a tool for convenience and site performance, never as a way to track what you do elsewhere.

Types of cookies we set

To keep the site working and useful, we group the cookies we use into four categories:

• Essential cookies: these keep the pages loading and let the basic features run. The site cannot function without them, so they stay on by default.
• Functional cookies: these store your language and AUD display settings, saving you from re-entering the same choices on every visit.
• Analytics cookies: these show us, in aggregate, which pages get used and where readers run into friction. The data is anonymised and helps us fix weak spots.
• Marketing cookies: these measure whether a campaign was useful and tailor the offers you see. They only run once you agree to them.

Essential cookies are always active because the site depends on them, while the other three groups load only after you give consent. You can change your mind whenever you like, and withdrawing consent takes effect straight away.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies are placed by trusted partners rather than by us directly, such as analytics or hosting providers. These partners handle the data they collect under their own privacy terms, which we ask them to keep in line with applicable law. We do not sell your information, and any partner we work with may use cookie data only for the agreed purpose.

Managing your cookies

You hold the final say over every non-essential cookie on our site. Use the cookie banner shown on your first visit to accept or decline categories, and revisit those choices at any time from the settings link in the footer. Your browser also lets you block or delete cookies entirely through its privacy menu, though turning off essential ones may stop parts of the site from loading. Clearing them from a shared device is a simple way to keep your preferences private.

How long cookies last

Session cookies disappear the moment you close your browser, while persistent ones stay for a set period so the site recognises you on your return. We keep each type only as long as it serves its purpose, and analytics or marketing cookies carry the shortest lifespans we can set. Once a cookie expires, your browser removes it automatically unless you renew the same preferences on a later visit.

Updates to this policy

We may revise this policy to reflect new tools, partners or legal requirements affecting how cookies work. The current version always sits on this page with the date of its latest change shown clearly. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the revised approach, and any new consent category will be put to you through the banner first.
