Reporting on casinos that hold no GamStop link, and on how swiftly they settle payouts, for readers in Great Britain calls for very few technical tools, and this site uses no more than that. Which cookies and similar technologies are placed here, what purpose each serves, and the way a refusal or a change of mind is made are all set out in this policy. A cookie is a small text file kept on a device by the browser; local and session storage entries, along with counting pixels, function much as cookies do.
Legal basis
Regulation 6 of the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (PECR) supplies the governing rule: information placed on a user's device, or access gained to information already stored on it, calls for clear and comprehensive information and for the user's consent, unless the storage is strictly necessary for the provision of a service the user has asked for. Consent must satisfy the UK GDPR standard (Article 4(11) and Article 7): specific, informed, unambiguous and freely given, and no harder to withdraw than to give. Where personal data is processed by way of cookies, the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 have effect as well.
Strictly necessary files
Without this group the site would not run dependably. A session is kept open by them, load is spread across servers, forms are shielded from abuse, and the cookie choice itself is remembered. No separate choice precedes them. Session files end with the browser session, and no longer than twelve months is the stored choice kept.
Functional and analytics files
Settings such as which payout tables were opened last are remembered by functional files. Page views are counted by analytics files, which show which pages are read, allowing the content to be improved. Consent given in the cookie banner is the precondition for both groups. For analysis IP addresses are shortened, and no profiles tracking behaviour across different sites are constructed.
Third-party files
Files of their own may be placed by embedded outside services, videos and maps among them. The provider's privacy rules then have effect too, and any objection concerning them goes to that provider. Advertising cookies that build profiles for personalised ads are not set by wagerpointuk.com unless a clear choice has been made in the consent banner.
Refusing and changing consent
Withdrawal or change of consent is possible at any moment via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer; a withdrawal operates for the future and leaves the lawfulness of processing already carried out untouched. Cookies can also be blocked and deleted by the user in any browser's privacy settings, and the manufacturer's help pages set out the steps for Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge. Once the necessary files have been deleted the banner returns, and for a short time some features may cease to work.
Supervision
The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's supervisory authority, is there to receive a complaint about how personal data has been handled. How personal data is processed is described in the privacy policy of this site.
