Cookie Policy

Last updated: 4 June 2026

This cookie policy explains how stakeshorseracingbet.com uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the site. It should be read alongside the main privacy policy, which covers the wider question of how personal data is handled.

What cookies are

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. The cookie can then be read back on subsequent visits or page loads. Cookies have a number of uses: keeping you logged in to a service, remembering preferences, recording that you have already dismissed a notice, and providing aggregated analytics about how a site is being used.

Similar technologies, such as local storage and pixel tags, perform comparable functions and are covered by the same rules and consents described here.

Cookies the site sets

stakeshorseracingbet.com uses cookies only where they are needed to operate the site or where the reader has given consent. The cookies in use fall into three categories.

Strictly necessary cookies are required for the basic operation of the site. They include a session identifier for security purposes and a small cookie that records whether you have already dismissed the cookie banner so that we do not show it on every page. These cookies are set automatically when you visit the site and cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.

Preference cookies remember choices you have made, such as a font-size adjustment or a hidden notice. These are stored for as long as the relevant preference applies and are removed when you clear your browser data.

Analytics cookies, where used, allow us to understand at an aggregate level which articles readers find useful and how the site is performing. Analytics cookies are only set after you have given consent through the cookie banner. We configure any analytics service to mask part of the Internet Protocol address before storage and do not use analytics data to identify individual readers.

Cookies we do not set

stakeshorseracingbet.com does not set advertising cookies, retargeting cookies or cookies that share data with gambling operators or affiliate networks. The site does not embed third-party advertising frames. Where the site links externally, the external site sets its own cookies under its own policy once you follow the link.

Managing cookies

You can control cookies through the cookie banner displayed on your first visit. The banner gives you a clear option to accept non-essential cookies, to reject them or to view further information. Your choice is recorded and applies on future visits, and you can change it at any time through the cookie-settings link in the site footer.

You can also manage cookies directly in your browser. All current browsers allow you to view cookies stored on your device, to delete them and to block cookies from particular sites. Browser instructions vary by version, but the cookie controls are typically found within the privacy or security settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site from working as intended.

Do Not Track

Some browsers send a Do Not Track signal indicating that the reader does not want to be tracked across sites. There is no single agreed standard for how a website should respond to this signal, but stakeshorseracingbet.com does not set advertising or cross-site tracking cookies in any case. Analytics cookies are set only after explicit consent through the banner, regardless of the Do Not Track signal.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when the cookies in use on the site change, when the underlying technology changes, or when the regulatory framework is revised. The date at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision. Where a change introduces a new cookie or extends the use of an existing one, we will draw it to readers’ attention through the cookie banner.
