What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide anonymised analytical data to website operators. Cookies cannot execute code, deliver malware, or access files stored on your device.
Under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and the UK GDPR, website operators are required to obtain consent before placing any cookies that are not strictly necessary for the operation of the site.

Affiliate Tracking Cookies
When you click a link to one of the casino operators we recommend, an affiliate tracking cookie may be set by that operator's platform. This cookie records that you arrived via our site so that we receive commission if you register and deposit. These cookies are set by the casino operator, not by us, and are subject to that operator's own cookie and privacy policy.
We do not have access to, or control over, cookies set by third-party casino operators.
Cookies We Do Not Use
We do not use: advertising or retargeting cookies; social media tracking pixels; behavioural profiling cookies; or any cookies designed to track you across third-party websites for marketing purposes.
