Cookie policy – Newbookiesuk.com

Readers of the pages on new bookmakers meet only a small set of technical tools on Newbookiesuk.com, listed below with their purposes and the ways to refuse or alter them. A cookie is a small text file saved by the browser on a device. Local and session storage entries and counting pixels work in a similar way.

Why consent is asked

Regulation 6 of the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (PECR) sets the rule. Storing information on a user’s device, or reading what is already stored there, calls for clear and comprehensive information and the user’s consent. Storage strictly necessary for a service the user has asked for is exempt. Consent is judged by the UK GDPR standard (Article 4(11) and Article 7): freely given, specific, informed, unambiguous, and as easy to withdraw as to give. If cookies lead to personal data being processed, the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 also apply.

Files needed to run the site

Some files keep the site working: they hold a session, spread load across servers, protect forms from abuse and store the cookie choice. Consent is not sought for these. Session files go when the browser closes; the stored choice stays for no more than twelve months.

Files that wait for consent

Functional files recall settings such as the comparison tables opened last, and analytics files count page views to show which pages are read and where the content could improve. Neither group is set before consent is given in the banner. IP addresses are shortened for analysis, and no profile following behaviour across sites is built.

Services from other providers

An embedded video or map can carry the provider’s own files, bringing the provider’s privacy rules into play; objections go to that provider. Newbookiesuk.com sets no advertising cookies for personalised ads without a clear choice in the consent banner.

Changing a decision

The footer link “Cookie settings” opens the choices again, and consent can be changed or withdrawn there whenever wanted. Withdrawal applies from then on and leaves earlier processing lawful. Browsers also allow cookies to be blocked and deleted. After the necessary files are deleted, the banner shows again, and a few features may stop working briefly.

Where to complain

The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s supervisory authority, takes complaints about the handling of personal data. The privacy policy of this site explains how such data is processed.
