Third-Party Cookies and Integration
Our gaming platform integrates with various third-party services essential for operations, including payment processors, game providers, security services, and analytics platforms. These partners may set their own cookies subject to their respective privacy policies and cookie notices.
Third-party cookies enable secure payment processing, fraud prevention, game content delivery, and customer support functionality. We carefully select partners who comply with UK data protection standards and provide adequate privacy safeguards for player information.
Social media integration, live chat support, and promotional content may involve additional third-party cookies. You can manage these through your social media account settings or by using browser privacy tools that block cross-site tracking.
Data Retention and Storage
Cookie data is retained for periods necessary to fulfil stated purposes, typically ranging from session duration to two years maximum. Essential cookies expire when you close your browser or log out, while preference cookies persist to remember your choices across sessions.
Analytics and marketing cookies have longer retention periods to enable meaningful trend analysis and campaign optimisation. All cookie data is stored securely using encryption and access controls, with regular purging of expired information to minimise data retention.
Upon account closure or withdrawal of consent, we delete or anonymise cookie data within reasonable timeframes, except where retention is required for legal compliance, fraud prevention, or dispute resolution purposes under UK gambling regulations.
