When you visit our website, small data files called cookies are automatically stored on your device. These files help us improve your experience, understand how the site is used, and maintain its functionality. This page explains what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.
How This Website Uses Cookies
Our site relies on cookies to deliver essential functions—such as keeping you logged in if you create an account, remembering your language preference, and maintaining page session information. Beyond these core features, we also deploy analytics cookies to track visitor behaviour and traffic patterns. This data helps us understand which content proves most useful and where the site may need improvement. All analytics work is anonymised; we do not use these cookies to identify individual users. We may also store cookies related to your interaction preferences, such as whether you have dismissed a notification banner or adjusted display settings. These preference cookies ensure your choices persist across sessions.
Cookie Types and Durations
Essential cookies are necessary for the site to operate properly and typically expire when you close your browser or after one year, depending on their function. Analytics cookies, which gather aggregated data about how visitors use the site, generally remain active for up to two years to provide meaningful usage trends. Preference cookies, which store your chosen settings, usually last around one year unless you manually clear them. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies designed to build profiles for third-party marketing purposes.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings menu. You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, block them entirely, or prompt you before each cookie is stored. Please note that disabling essential cookies may prevent certain features from working correctly, though analytics and preference cookies can usually be removed without affecting site functionality. If you have questions about how to adjust cookie settings in your specific browser, consult the browser’s help documentation.

If you have concerns about problem gambling, several organisations in the UK provide free, confidential support through their helplines.
