What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your browser or device when you visit it. They let the website recognise your device, remember your choices and understand how pages are used. Similar technologies, such as pixels, tags and local storage, work in a comparable way, and this policy covers them too.
Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep the Website secure and working properly;
- Remember your cookie choices so we do not ask on every visit;
- Measure which pages and comparison tables are useful, so we can improve them;
- Record when you follow a “Claim Offer” link to a casino, so the casino can attribute the referral to us.
We do not use cookies to collect your name, email address or any gambling account details.
Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are needed for the Website to work, for example to load pages securely, balance traffic and store your cookie choices. They do not need consent and cannot be switched off in our cookie settings.
Functional Cookies
These cookies remember display settings that make repeat visits easier. They are set only with your consent.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Website, for example which pages are read most and where visitors leave. The data is collected in aggregated form. They are set only with your consent.
Affiliate and Advertising Cookies
When you click a link to a casino, a tracking cookie or click reference records that you came from our Website. This lets the casino attribute a new account to us, which is how we fund a free Website. These cookies are set only with your consent and never change the offer you receive.
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set by casinowelcomebonusuk.com. Third-party cookies are set by other services we use, such as analytics providers and the affiliate tracking platforms used by casinos. Third parties control their own cookies under their own privacy and cookie policies.

Managing Your Cookies
When you first visit the Website, a cookie banner lets you accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies or choose by category. You can change your choices at any time through the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of every page.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings, where you can delete existing cookies and block new ones. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the Website from working. Rejecting analytics or affiliate cookies does not affect your access to any content.
Withdrawing consent does not affect cookies set before you changed your choice, but we stop setting non-essential cookies from that moment.

We may update this Cookie Policy when we add, remove or change cookies, or when the law changes. The “Last updated” date shows the current version.
