This page explains how 31bets is covered here on 31-bets.me.uk and, separately, how this portal itself uses cookies while you read that coverage. The two are not the same thing: the operator's own site sets whatever cookies it sets once you visit it directly, and this policy has nothing to do with those. What follows concerns only the small set of files this portal drops in your browser while you browse our 31bets pages.
What a cookie actually does on this site
A cookie is a small text file a website stores on your device so it can recognise your browser on a later visit. It doesn't identify you by name, and it can't read anything else on your device. On a portal like ours, cookies mostly do dull but useful jobs – remembering that you've seen a notice, or letting us see which pages get read at all.
None of this is unique to us. Almost every modern site, including the operator's own platform, runs on the same basic mechanism.
Session vs persistent cookies
Some cookies vanish the moment you close the tab; others stick around for weeks or months so the site remembers you next time. Both types appear below, split by what they're actually for rather than how long they last.
Which cookies this portal sets
| Category | What it's for |
|---|---|
| Necessary | Keeps the site working – navigation, security, remembering your cookie choice |
| Analytics (consent-based) | Aggregated traffic data so we know which pages get read |
| Marketing & advertising (consent-based) | Measures whether an editorial link performed, nothing more |
| Preference | Remembers small display choices between visits |
We don't invent categories beyond these, and we don't name individual cookie files here – vendors change their own internal naming from time to time, and a hard-coded list would go stale within a year.
Third-party scripts running alongside ours
Some of the boxes above are populated by scripts we don't write ourselves – an analytics provider, for instance, or a marketing pixel. Those scripts can set their own cookies once you've consented, under the same rules that apply to any third-party code embedded in a page. We don't control what those vendors do internally with the data their own cookies collect, only that we've limited what we hand them.
Nothing on this portal loads a third-party script from 31bets' own domain. Any cookie set by the operator's platform happens only if and when you visit that platform directly, entirely outside our control.
Turning cookies off in your browser
You can block or delete cookies at any time through your browser's own settings, independently of any consent banner we show you.
- Chrome – Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox – Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari – Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge – Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Blocking necessary cookies may stop parts of the site working properly; blocking analytics or marketing cookies won't affect anything you can actually use – it just means we learn less about how the page performed.
When this text changes
We update this policy whenever the cookies we actually use change, not on a fixed schedule. Checking back occasionally is the only way to catch a change, since we don't email visitors about it.
Questions about this policy, rather than about a 31bets account, can go to [email protected].
