What cookies are and why we use them
Spinnerbet is written for visitors in the UK, and this page explains in plain words how we use cookies on our website. A cookie is a small text file that your browser stores when you open a page. It lets a site remember that you have visited before and how you set it up. Without cookies, many pages would forget your choices every time you moved from one screen to the next.
We use the term in a broad sense here. It covers small files, local storage entries and similar browser tools that do the same job. Some are needed for the site to load properly. Others help us understand which pages people read, so we can fix what is confusing. You stay in charge of the optional ones, and you can change your mind at any time.
Read this page alongside our Spinnerbet home page and the privacy and terms pages linked in the footer. Together they describe what happens to information when you browse. If anything here is unclear, the questions at the foot of this page cover the most common worries.

The types of cookie you may meet
Cookies on a gambling website usually fall into a few families. Knowing the families makes it much easier to decide which ones you are happy with. The table below sets out the groups in the order most visitors want to read them.
Cookie groups at a glance
| Group | What it does | Can you refuse it? |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Keeps pages loading, remembers your session and protects the site from misuse. | No, the site needs these to work. |
| Preferences | Remembers choices such as language, layout and the notices you have already dismissed. | Yes, but you will be asked again on each visit. |
| Analytics | Counts visits and shows which pages are read, so we can improve clarity and speed. | Yes, through your cookie settings. |
| Marketing | Helps measure whether an offer link led a visitor to our site. | Yes, through your cookie settings. |
How to manage your cookie choices
You can control cookies in two places. The first is the notice that appears when you arrive, where you can accept or decline the optional groups. The second is your browser, which lets you block, delete or limit cookies for every site you visit. Both routes work together, and the browser setting always wins if the two disagree.
Deleting cookies will sign you out and clear the choices a site remembered for you. That is normal and does no harm. If you share a device, clearing cookies after each session is a sensible habit, especially on a shared family computer or a work laptop.
Blocking every cookie can make some pages behave oddly. Forms may forget what you typed, and notices may reappear. If something looks broken after a change, restore the default settings in your browser and reload the page.
Steps to change your settings
Open your browser settings
Look for a menu called Privacy, Security or Site data. Every major browser has one, usually under the three-dot or three-line icon near the address bar.
Choose what to keep
Pick whether to allow all cookies, block third-party ones or clear everything when you close the browser. Third-party blocking is a good middle path for most visitors.
Reload and check
Return to our site and reload the page. The cookie notice may appear again, which gives you a fresh chance to confirm your optional choices.
Cookies, privacy and your rights
Cookies can hold information that relates to you, so data protection rules apply to them. In the UK, those rules give you the right to know what is collected, to ask for it to be corrected and to object to certain uses. Our privacy policy explains those rights in full and says how to exercise them.
We keep cookie information only as long as it is useful for the purpose it was set for. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Longer-lived ones expire after a set period, and you can remove them earlier whenever you wish. We do not use cookies to read private files on your device.
When this policy changes, we update the text on this page so it always shows the current position. If a change is significant, we may show the notice again so you can confirm your choices once more. Checking back occasionally is a good habit, particularly after a long break from the site.

Cookie questions answered
Do I have to accept cookies to use the site?
You must allow the essential ones, because the site cannot run without them. Optional groups such as analytics and marketing are your decision, and declining them does not stop you browsing.
How do I withdraw my consent later?
Open your browser settings and delete the site data for our domain. When you return, the cookie notice appears again and you can choose afresh.
Do cookies reveal my password or bank details?
No. Cookies are small labels that help a page remember a session or a preference. They are not a way for anyone to read your passwords or card information.
Why does the cookie notice keep coming back?
This usually happens when your browser deletes cookies on exit or blocks them entirely. Allow essential cookies for our site and the notice will stay dismissed.
