Cookies – casinoratingsuk
casinoratingsuk may place a small number of files on your device while you compare ratings on this site, and this page explains what they do.
What cookies are
A cookie is a short text file your browser stores so a site can recognise it on a later visit. Some are needed for the page to run; others just count visits or remember a setting.
The legal basis in the UK
PECR — the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 — sets the rules, policed by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). Cookies strictly necessary for the site to function need no consent; everything else does, unless an exemption applies. Where a cookie handles personal data, the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 apply as well, as covered in our privacy policy.
Cookies we use
- Essential cookies hold the site together — remembering a setting, for instance — and cannot be switched off within the site itself.
- Analytics cookies show us, in aggregate, how many readers land on a rating page and how. They do not identify an individual visitor.
We do not use cookies for advertising, and none of them pass your browsing to a gambling operator.
How long they last
Session cookies disappear when you close the browser. Persistent analytics cookies expire on a fixed schedule, capped at 13 months.
Switching cookies off
Browser settings let you view, block or delete cookies at will. Blocking essential ones may break parts of the site; blocking analytics cookies will not affect reading a rating.
