Cookie Policy

Last updated: 19 October 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Golf bet uses cookies and similar storage technologies on its website, what each category is used for, and how UK readers can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are used to remember information about the visit, for example your preferences or the fact that you have already dismissed a consent banner. Similar technologies — local storage, session storage, pixels and beacons — can perform comparable functions and are covered by the same rules.

How we use cookies

We try to use as few cookies as we can. The categories described below cover everything currently used on the site.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the site to function properly. They support core actions such as serving the page, applying basic security protections and remembering your cookie preferences once you have set them. We do not ask for consent for strictly necessary cookies because the site cannot operate without them, but we still try to keep them to a minimum.

Analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand which articles readers find useful, where they enter the site and where they leave it. The data is aggregated and is used to improve the quality and structure of the site. We use a privacy-friendly analytics setup and rely on consent where required by UK rules.

Preference cookies

If you set a preference on the site, such as accepting or rejecting non-essential cookies, that preference is stored so we do not ask you the same question on every visit.

Third-party cookies

Where third-party services are loaded on the site (for example, embedded fonts from a font provider or external scripts from a content delivery network), the third party may set cookies under its own policy. We try to limit such embeds and we list the categories of third parties we work with in our Privacy Policy.

Cookies we do not use

We do not use cookies for cross-site advertising and we do not sell or rent the data collected through cookies on this site. We do not run programmatic advertising on the site.

Your control over cookies

You can control or refuse non-essential cookies through the consent banner on the site or through the settings of your browser. Most browsers allow you to view the cookies stored, to delete cookies and to block cookies entirely or selectively. Information on how to do this is available in the help menu of your browser.

If you choose to block or delete cookies, some parts of the site may not function as expected. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled through our banner because the site cannot operate without them.

Do Not Track signals

Some browsers send a “Do Not Track” signal to indicate that the user does not wish to be tracked across websites. There is no agreed industry standard for handling these signals. We do not currently use Do Not Track as the basis for setting cookie preferences. You can still control cookies through our consent banner and through your browser settings.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example to reflect changes in the technologies we use or in UK law. When we do, we will update the “last updated” date at the top. Where the changes are material we will highlight them on the page so that readers can review the new version.

How to contact us

If you have a question about cookies on the site or about this policy, please reach us through the contact route published on our About page. We will respond within a reasonable period.
