Cookie Policy | Best Online Slots UK

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the site owners. Cookies can be “first-party” (set by the site you are visiting) or “third-party” (set by another domain, e.g. an analytics or advertising provider). They may also be “session” cookies (deleted when you close the browser) or “persistent” (they remain for a set period or until you delete them). Similar technologies include pixels, local storage, and session storage; we use the term “cookies” in this policy to cover these where relevant.

2. Why we use cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

• Strictly necessary: required for the Site to function (e.g. load balancing, security, remembering cookie preferences). These cannot be disabled if you want to use the Site.
• Functionality: to remember your choices (e.g. region, display preferences) and to provide enhanced features.
• Analytics and performance: to understand how visitors use the Site (e.g. which pages are viewed, how long users stay, how they arrived). This helps us improve content and user experience. Data may be aggregated and anonymised.
• Advertising and affiliate: to record that you visited the Site, clicked a link to a partner operator, or completed an action (e.g. sign-up) so we can attribute referrals and measure the effectiveness of our content. This may involve third-party cookies from our affiliate or advertising partners.

3. Cookies we use

Below is a summary of the main types of cookies and similar technologies we may use. The exact list may change as we update the Site or our partners; we will keep this policy updated.

Third-party cookies are subject to the privacy and cookie policies of the respective third parties. We do not control those cookies; we recommend you check the policies of our analytics and affiliate partners for full details.

4. Consent and your choices

Where required by law (e.g. UK PECR and ePrivacy rules), we will not use non-essential cookies until we have obtained your consent. When you first visit the Site, you may see a cookie banner or notice allowing you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage preferences. You can change your choices at any time via your browser settings or, if we provide one, via a “Cookie preferences” or “Manage cookies” link on the Site.

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser. Most browsers allow you to block third-party cookies, block all cookies, or delete existing cookies. How you do this depends on your browser; typically you will find options under “Settings” or “Preferences” in the “Privacy” or “Security” section. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect how the Site works (e.g. some features may not function, or we may not remember your preferences). For more information, visit your browser’s help pages or see for example allaboutcookies.org.

5. Do Not Track and similar signals

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) or similar setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that they do not track the user. There is no universal standard for how sites must respond to DNT. We currently do not change our behaviour based on DNT signals alone; we rely on the cookie consent and choices described above. If you wish to limit tracking, please use the cookie and browser options set out in section 4.

6. Updates to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date at the top will be revised when we do. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Where changes are significant, we may seek renewed consent for non-essential cookies.
