Cookie Policy
Last updated: 10 April 2026. This Cookie Policy explains how blackmagicspecialist7.com (“we”, “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website (the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which describes how we handle personal data more broadly. We review our use of cookies periodically to ensure it remains aligned with applicable UK law, including the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR where relevant.
What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They often contain an identifier, an expiry time, and sometimes other information. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, and scripts that perform comparable functions. Together, these technologies can help a site remember preferences, maintain security sessions, measure performance, or deliver content efficiently. Some cookies are set by us (“first-party” cookies); others may be set by partners or service providers when their content loads on our pages (“third-party” cookies).
How we use cookies on this Site
We may use strictly necessary cookies that are essential for the Site to function, for example to maintain security, balance server load, route traffic, or remember whether you have dismissed or accepted the cookie banner where that memory is required for compliance. Where we deploy cookies or similar technologies that are not strictly necessary under applicable rules, we will rely on consent where required and provide controls through our cookie banner or browser settings. We may also use limited analytics cookies or similar tools to understand aggregated traffic patterns—such as which pages are viewed most often—so we can improve navigation and content. We do not use cookies to sell personal data.
Categories you may encounter
Depending on your choices and how the Site is configured at any given time, you may encounter: strictly necessary cookies (required for core functionality and security); preference cookies that remember settings such as language or cookie consent status; analytics cookies that help us measure Site usage in aggregate; and performance or diagnostic cookies that assist with error reporting. The exact names, durations, and providers of specific cookies may change as we update our systems; you can use your browser’s developer tools or cookie settings to inspect cookies present on your device.
Third-party cookies and outbound links
When you click links that leave our Site—for example to visit a licensed gambling operator—third-party sites may set their own cookies and use their own technologies. We do not control those cookies. Embedded content, if present, may also cause third-party cookies to be stored. You should review the privacy and cookie notices of each third-party service you use.
Legal bases and consent
Under UK rules, we will obtain consent before storing or accessing non-essential cookies or similar technologies on your device where consent is required. Essential cookies may be used without consent where they fall within the strictly necessary exemption. You can withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your choices in our cookie banner where available, or by deleting cookies and blocking future cookies through your browser. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal.
Managing cookies in your browser
Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies through settings. You can usually configure your browser to block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or delete cookies when you close the browser. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect Site functionality; for example, you may need to reconfirm preferences or experience slower load times. Browser manufacturers publish guidance on cookie controls for each product version.
Retention
Cookie lifetimes vary. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them. We configure durations based on the purpose of each cookie and our review cycles.
Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our practices. The “Last updated” date will change when we publish revisions. Please review this page periodically, especially if you have not visited the Site for some time.
