3. Why We Use Tracking and Affiliate Cookies
Our website provides free, un-gated reviews and testing reports for non Gamstop casinos. To maintain this research infrastructure, affiliate tracking cookies record when a visitor navigates from our review or listing cards to a casino registration form. These cookies store no name, payment information, physical address, or IP-identifiable user profile.

Please note that disabling cookies may affect certain visual elements or prevent custom sorting preferences from persisting across sessions.
5. Updates to This Policy
We review and update our Cookie Policy periodically to reflect technological updates, UK GDPR compliance revisions, and ICO guidance. Revisions take effect immediately upon publication on this page.
