Cookie Policy

Last updated: 30 April 2026

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies Fortunica Online uses on fortunicacasino-online.co.uk, why we use them, and how to control them. It complements the Privacy Policy and applies under the UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR), which is the UK's specific cookie law.

What cookies we use

Short answer: we don't set any first-party cookies on this site.

The longer answer requires a distinction between three categories.

First-party cookies (set by Fortunica Online)

None. The site doesn't run user accounts, doesn't have a login system, doesn't run a newsletter, and doesn't need to remember anything about you between visits. There are no first-party cookies, no localStorage entries, no sessionStorage entries.

Third-party cookies (set by services we embed)

None routinely. We don't embed Facebook pixels, LinkedIn Insight tags, Google Tag Manager, advertising network beacons, or social-media share widgets that load tracking code. The analytics service we use (Plausible) is explicitly cookieless and stores no identifiers in the browser.

Affiliate redirect cookies (set after you click a recommendation link)

This is the one place cookies enter the picture. When you click an outbound link from a Fortunica Online review to a recommended operator, the destination operator typically sets one or more cookies on your browser to attribute the registration to us. The cookies are set after you've left this site, by the operator, governed by the operator's cookie policy and not by ours. Common patterns:

We don't set these cookies, can't read them, and don't receive any data from them beyond the affiliate platform's reports of attributed registrations and revenue. The cookies live in the operator's domain space; deleting them or blocking them affects your relationship with the operator, not with us.

How to control cookies

Browser-level controls are the most effective tool. The major UK browsers all support cookie management at granularity from "block all" to "block third-party only" to "ask for each":

Browser-level "Do Not Track" and "Global Privacy Control" signals: this site honours both, although since we don't run tracking the practical effect is limited to confirming that no tracking happens regardless of signal state.

Cookie consent banner

We don't display a cookie consent banner because we don't set cookies that require consent under PECR. The PECR consent requirement applies to non-essential cookies; if you're not setting any, the banner is unnecessary and arguably misleading.

If a future change adds non-essential cookies (analytics that set identifiers, retargeting pixels, embedded social widgets), we'll add a banner with affirmative consent before the change goes live, consistent with PECR and the ICO's published guidance on cookie consent.

Local storage and similar technologies

The site uses no localStorage, no sessionStorage, no IndexedDB, and no Service Worker registration. Browser fingerprinting techniques (canvas, WebGL, audio context fingerprinting) are not used.

Updates

If we change cookie usage, the change will be reflected here and the "last updated" line at the top of the page will change. Material changes (introducing new cookies that affect privacy) will be flagged at the top of the page for at least 30 days.
