What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to improve the user experience and to provide information to site operators. Cookies may be set by the site you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third-party services operating on that site (third-party cookies).

Cookies can be session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them manually.

How This Site Uses Cookies

This site uses cookies for the following purposes.

Strictly necessary cookies are essential for the basic operation of the website. They enable core functionality such as page navigation and secure access. These cookies do not collect personal information and cannot be disabled without affecting how the site functions.

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the site by collecting information about pages visited, time spent on each page, traffic sources and navigation patterns. This data is aggregated and anonymous. We use it to identify which content is most useful, to detect technical issues and to improve the structure and relevance of our greyhound betting guides. Analytics may be provided by third-party services such as Google Analytics, which processes data under its own privacy policy available at policies.google.com/privacy.

Functionality cookies remember choices you have made, such as preferred language, font size or cookie consent status, to provide a more personalised experience on return visits.

Advertising and third-party cookies. This site may display advertisements served by third-party advertising networks. These networks may place cookies on your device to serve relevant ads based on your browsing activity across multiple websites. We do not control the cookies set by these third parties and recommend reviewing their respective privacy and cookie policies for further information.

Specific Cookies Used

The following categories of cookies may be active on this site.

Google Analytics (_ga, _ga_*, _gid) — analytics cookies that track visitor behaviour across sessions. These cookies assign a randomly generated identifier to your device and do not contain personally identifiable information. Retention period: up to 26 months.

Cookie consent (cookie_consent or equivalent) — a functionality cookie that stores your cookie preference so that the consent notice is not shown on every visit. Retention period: 12 months.

Third-party advertising — cookies set by advertising networks may include identifiers used for interest-based advertising. The specific cookies depend on the ad networks active on the site at any given time.

Managing Your Cookies

You can control and manage cookies in several ways.

Browser settings. Most web browsers allow you to view, manage and delete cookies through their settings. The process varies by browser. Instructions for the most common browsers are available at the following links:

Opt-out tools. For Google Analytics specifically, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, which prevents Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits.

Advertising opt-outs. You can opt out of interest-based advertising from participating networks through Your Online Choices, a service managed by the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance.

Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of this site. Some features may not work as intended if essential cookies are blocked.

Do Not Track

Some browsers support a Do Not Track (DNT) signal that indicates you do not wish to be tracked across websites. There is currently no universal standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. We will update this policy if a consistent standard is adopted in the future.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, third-party services or applicable regulations. The date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised.
