Cookie Policy
Last updated: 3 June 2026. This Policy explains how bookmakerstore.com uses cookies and similar technologies.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit and settings.
Which cookies we use
We use analytics cookies only. We do not place marketing, advertising tracking, or social media cookies.
Analytics cookies
_ga— distinguish unique visitors — up to 2 years._ga_*— maintain session state — up to 2 years.
Legal basis
Analytics cookies are processed based on consent, in line with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and applicable Spam Act 2003 provisions.
What data is collected
Analytics cookies may collect anonymised usage data such as pages visited, session duration, referral source, device/browser type, and anonymised IP-derived information.
Managing and deleting cookies
You can manage, block, or delete cookies in browser settings (for example: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). Blocking cookies may affect some functionality.
Third-party transfers
Analytics processing may involve third-party infrastructure (for example Google Analytics) and storage outside Australia. We take reasonable steps to align handling with Australian Privacy Principles.
Strictly necessary storage
We use session storage to record age-verification status during your browser session so the 18+ gate is not shown on every page view. We use local storage to remember whether you accepted or rejected optional analytics cookies. These mechanisms are not used for cross-site tracking and do not identify you to third parties by themselves.
Consent and withdrawal
When you first interact with our cookie banner, you may accept or reject analytics cookies. Rejecting analytics cookies means we will not set Google Analytics identifiers on your device. You may change your choice later by clearing site data in your browser and revisiting the Site, or by using browser controls to delete existing cookies.
Browser-specific instructions
Most browsers allow you to block third-party cookies, block all cookies, or delete cookies on exit. Mobile browsers on iOS and Android provide similar controls under privacy or site settings. Blocking all cookies may prevent the cookie banner preference from being remembered and may require you to confirm age verification more frequently within the same session.
Do Not Track
Some browsers send a Do Not Track signal. There is no uniform industry standard for responding to such signals in Australia. We treat analytics as optional and off by default until you accept cookies in our banner, regardless of DNT settings.
Impact on Site features
Essential operation of bookmakerstore.com does not depend on analytics cookies. Rejecting analytics will not remove access to reviews, policy pages, or responsible gambling resources. We do not gate content behind marketing cookies.
Data sharing with analytics providers
Where analytics is enabled, aggregated usage data may be processed by service providers acting on our instructions. We configure analytics to avoid collecting unnecessary personal identifiers where configuration options allow. Data may be stored on servers outside Australia; we take reasonable steps described in our Privacy Policy.
Retention of cookie data
Analytics cookies may persist for up to two years unless deleted earlier by you. Session storage for age verification is cleared when you close the browser tab or window, depending on browser behaviour. Local storage for cookie consent remains until you clear it.
Changes
We may revise this policy from time to time. Updates are published with a revised date. If we introduce new cookie categories, we will update this page and, where required, request fresh consent before activating non-essential cookies.
