Types of Cookies: We primarily use essential and performance cookies (e.g., Google Analytics, which is anonymized) to understand how the Site is used.
Third-Party Cookies: Third-party links or embedded content (like social media sharing buttons or affiliate tracking) may also set cookies. We do not have access to or control over these cookies.
You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Site effectively.

The non-personal information we collect is used exclusively for the following purposes:
To maintain and improve the performance and content of the Site.
To understand user demographics and trends (e.g., how many mobile users we have).
To comply with any legal obligations or requests (e.g., responding to a lawful subpoena).

We do not sell, trade, or rent your non-personal usage data to others. We may share this data with third-party service providers (like Google Analytics) to help us analyze and improve the Site, but only in an aggregated and anonymized form.
4. Third-Party Websites and Affiliate Disclosure
4.1 External Links
Our Site contains links to third-party betting and gambling operators. We provide these links for your convenience and information.
Once you click on an external link, you leave our Site, and this Privacy Policy is no longer applicable.

We accept no responsibility or liability for the content, security, or privacy practices of any third-party websites.

We use third-party affiliate tracking systems. These systems use non-personal tracking mechanisms (like cookies or click IDs) to determine if a user who clicked a link on our site successfully engaged with a partner's site (e.g., registered an account). This process involves no sharing of your personal identity from our side.
5. Security of Data
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your non-personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
