Cookie Policy
This page lays out the cookies and similar technologies running on Quickbet, what each does, how long it lingers on your device, and how to control or remove them. The broader matter of personal-data handling is dealt with separately on the Privacy Policy page; this page is its technical companion. The site as a whole is described on the About page, with the flagship operator review on the Quickbet Casino homepage.
1. What a cookie is, briefly
A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to keep on your device. When the same site loads again, the browser hands the file back, letting the site recognise the visit, recall a setting, or tally traffic. Cookies can't run code on your machine, can't read other files, and can't identify you personally without other information already tied to the cookie. Plenty of things loosely called "cookies" nowadays are technically other browser-storage mechanisms — localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB — that behave much the same; for plain English, "cookie" on this page stands for all of them.
2. Categories of cookies used on Quickbet
Quickbet uses three categories of cookie. They're put to you on your first visit through a consent banner, and you can revisit your choice any time via the link in the site footer.
| Category | Purpose | Consent required |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Make the site work: load the page, remember your cookie-banner choice, route traffic, prevent abuse. | No (legal basis: legitimate interest) |
| Analytics | Anonymous, aggregated traffic measurement: which pages are read, where readers come from, which links are clicked. | Yes |
| Affiliate tracking | Recognise that a click through to an operator came from Quickbet so the partnership can be credited. | Yes |
Quickbet uses no advertising or remarketing cookies. We show no on-site display advertising, run no programmatic ad networks, and don't pixel-track readers across other sites. The funding model behind the site is described on the Affiliate Disclosure page.
3. Specific cookies, third parties and lifetimes
The list below covers the cookies that may be set when you visit Quickbet. Third-party cookies come from services Quickbet relies on; full control over their behaviour sits with the third party, and links to their own policies are given.
| Name | Set by | Category | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|---|
quickbet_consent | Quickbet | Strictly necessary | Stores your cookie-banner choice so the banner does not reappear on every page load. | 12 months |
quickbet_session | Quickbet | Strictly necessary | Anonymous session identifier used to load assets and rate-limit abusive traffic. | Until browser closes |
_ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics 4 | Analytics | Aggregated traffic statistics: pages per session, traffic sources, average time on page. IP addresses are anonymised before storage. | 14 months |
quickbet_aff | Quickbet | Affiliate tracking | Records that a click on an outbound operator link originated from Quickbet so the partnership is credited. | 30 days |
Third-party policies: Google Privacy and Terms applies to Google Analytics. Operator partner sites drop their own cookies once you've clicked through; those fall under the operator's own privacy policy, not Quickbet's.
4. How to control cookies in your browser
Every modern browser lets you block cookies, clear existing ones, or refuse third-party cookies outright. The official documentation:
You can also visit Quickbet in your browser's private or incognito mode, which stops cookies being kept from one session to the next.
5. What happens if you decline non-essential cookies
The site carries on working normally. You can read every page, follow every internal link, and click through to operator sites. Three small differences: traffic statistics won't count your visit; if you click an affiliate link with affiliate tracking turned off, the partnership can't be credited — the operator still treats you, the user, exactly the same; only the commission to Quickbet goes unrecorded; and the consent banner will return if you clear your cookies, because the choice itself lives in a cookie. The full editorial standards behind every page (including how affiliate links are flagged) sit on the Editorial Policy page, and the player-safety commitments are on the Responsible Gambling page.
6. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Quickbet honours the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal: if your browser sends GPC, every non-essential cookie is blocked automatically and the consent banner stays hidden. The older Do Not Track header has no agreed enforcement standard, so it isn't relied on.
7. Updates to this policy
If the cookies on Quickbet change, this page is updated and the "Last updated" date at the top is amended. Material changes — new categories, new third parties — come with a one-time consent banner refresh so returning visitors are asked again. Minor housekeeping (rewording, link updates) prompts no fresh consent request.
