1. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember preferences and understand how pages are used.
2. Cookies we use
- Essential: age-verification session flags so the 18+ gate is not shown every page load.
- Preference: cookie-consent choice stored in local storage when you accept or reject.
3. Third parties
Outbound links to gaming operators may set their own cookies once you leave our site. We do not control those technologies.
4. Managing cookies
Use our banner to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can also clear cookies via browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may limit site functionality.
5. Local storage and session storage
In addition to cookies, we use browser sessionStorage to remember that you confirmed you are 18 or older during your browsing session. We use localStorage to record whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies via our banner. These values are not shared with third parties and can be cleared through your browser settings.
6. Cookie duration
Session-based age verification data expires when you close the browser tab or window. Cookie-consent records persist until you clear site data or change your choice using the banner where available. We do not set long-lived advertising cookies on e-bestbetting.com itself.
7. Legal basis
Strictly necessary storage for age gating and security is processed on the basis of legitimate interests and compliance with gambling-marketing rules applicable to adults. Non-essential cookies, if introduced in future, will rely on consent obtained through our banner in line with the ePrivacy Directive and Irish implementing regulations.
8. Browser controls
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Instructions are available in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge help centres. Blocking all storage may prevent the age gate from remembering your confirmation and could require you to verify age on each visit.
9. Do Not Track
We do not currently respond to Do Not Track signals because there is no uniform industry standard. We minimise tracking on our own domain and encourage you to use browser privacy settings when visiting third-party operator sites.
10. Analytics
If we deploy privacy-friendly analytics in future, this policy will list the provider, data collected, retention period, and opt-out mechanism. At present we rely primarily on aggregated server logs with IP addresses truncated or deleted after a short retention window.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect new technologies or legal requirements. Check the effective date at the top of the page. Significant changes will be communicated via an on-site notice where appropriate.
12. Your consent choices
When you click Accept on our cookie banner, we record that choice in local storage so the banner does not reappear on future visits from the same browser. Reject stores a negative preference with the same effect. You may clear these values at any time through browser settings, after which the banner will display again on your next visit once age verification is complete.
