Cookie Policy

1. What is a cookie

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website you visit. Cookies let a site remember your actions and preferences over time, recognise repeat visits and measure how the site is being used. We also use related technologies such as browser local storage and pixel tags; for simplicity we refer to all of them as "cookies" in this policy.

2. The categories we use

Strictly necessary

Required for the Site to function. They remember your cookie consent choice, the state of the 18+ confirmation pop-up and any session-level data we need to keep the page running. The Site will not work properly without these and you cannot turn them off.

Analytics

Help us understand how visitors interact with the Site so that we can improve editorial coverage and fix problems. They are aggregated and never used to identify a specific person. You can opt out via the cookie banner or your browser settings.

Functional

Remember preferences such as which casino cards you have already viewed, so you can pick up where you left off. They do not track you across other websites.

Affiliate measurement

When you click an outbound link to a featured casino, an attribution cookie is dropped by the affiliate network. This tells the network we referred you so that any commission can be tracked. The cookie does not store any data that can identify you personally and never shares casino-side activity back with us.

3. Specific cookies we set

• dd_age_ok — local-storage flag, retained until cleared. Confirms you have passed the 18+ pop-up.
• dd_cookies — local-storage flag, retained until cleared. Stores your "accept" or "decline" choice from the cookie banner.
• _ga / _ga_* — analytics cookies (only set if you accept). Used to count unique visitors, measured anonymously.

Affiliate networks such as Income Access or Rakuten may set their own cookies on click. The exact list depends on the partner casino and is governed by the network's own privacy policy.

4. How to control cookies

• On this site. Use the cookie banner shown on first visit, or clear your browser data to make it appear again.
• In your browser. All major browsers let you block, delete or get notified about cookies. The relevant menu is usually under Settings > Privacy or Settings > Privacy and Security.
• Opt-out of common analytics. Google Analytics offers an opt-out browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Blocking strictly-necessary cookies will break parts of the Site. Blocking analytics or functional cookies will not — though some convenience features may be reset more often.

5. Changes to this policy

If our cookie usage changes materially we will update this page and surface a refreshed banner so you can review your consent. The "last updated" date above will reflect the most recent change.
