Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners useful information about how their site is used.

At unioncrowndirectory.com, we use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with our betting comparison platform.

How We Use Cookies

We use different types of cookies for various purposes. Below is a breakdown of the cookies we use and why.

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core features such as security, age verification, and cookie consent. We store your preferences in your browser's local storage, including age_verified (to remember that you have confirmed you are 18 or over) and cookies_accepted (to remember your cookie consent choice). Without these, certain parts of the site would not work correctly.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. These cookies collect information such as the number of visitors, which pages are visited most often, and how users navigate the site. This helps us improve unioncrowndirectory.com and provide better content. Google Analytics may set cookies on your device; you can learn more about Google's practices at their privacy policy.

Functional Cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language or region) and provide enhanced, more personalised features. They may also be used to provide services you have requested.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. For example, we may use third-party analytics or advertising partners. These cookies are subject to the respective third party's privacy policy. We also use local storage (localStorage) to store your age_verified and cookies_accepted preferences, which function similarly to cookies in helping us remember your choices across sessions.

Managing Cookies

You can control and manage cookies in several ways:

• Browser settings: Most web browsers allow you to refuse or accept cookies, and to delete existing cookies. You can usually find these options in your browser's settings or preferences menu.
• Our cookie banner: When you first visit unioncrowndirectory.com, you can choose to accept or decline non-essential cookies via our cookie consent banner.
• Opt-out tools: You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Please note that blocking or deleting certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website and your user experience.

Cookie Retention

Different cookies are stored for different lengths of time. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while persistent cookies may remain for a set period (e.g. up to 12 months or as specified by the cookie). Our local storage values for age_verified and cookies_accepted are retained until you clear your browser data or until they expire according to our implementation.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. We will post the updated policy on this page and update the "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
