Which cookies this site sets, what each one does, how long it lasts, and how to switch it off. This page is a companion to our privacy policy.
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. On your next visit the browser returns it, letting the site recall your preferences and session state. Related technologies, including local storage, session storage, pixels and web beacons, do similar jobs in slightly different ways, and on this page the word "cookies" covers all of them.
Most cookies here are harmless and necessary for the site to work. A few, the third-party analytics cookies, exist only to produce aggregate traffic data. We use no cookies to build advertising profiles, and we run no remarketing.
Needed for the site to function, and they cannot be switched off without breaking it. Session state, security challenges and load balancing all fall into this category.
These help us understand how the site is used in aggregate: which pages are viewed, how long a session runs, and what device classes visitors use. No personal profile is built, and IP addresses are anonymised before processing.
These remember your preferences, such as language choice and display theme.
We use no advertising cookies; this category is listed only for completeness, to confirm its absence. Affiliate click attribution is technically marketing-adjacent, and those cookies are described below under their own heading.

The exact set can vary slightly as third-party services update their implementations. If you notice a cookie on this site that is not listed here, please let us know and we will investigate and update this page.
Cloudflare supplies our CDN, DDoS protection and bot management. Its cookies exist to deliver the site quickly and to block abusive traffic. Full detail is in the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
We run GA4 in anonymised-IP mode with advertising features disabled. Its cookies let us see aggregate traffic patterns, such as pages per session, bounce rate and device split, without building an identifiable profile of any individual reader. Full detail is in the Google Privacy Policy, and you can install the GA opt-out browser add-on to block GA across every site.
When you click an outbound link to Betzillo casino online, a click identifier passes to the operator's affiliate network, usually Income Access, NetRefer or similar. That identifier credits this site with the referral if you later register. Nothing personal travels with the click beyond what your browser sends on any other navigation, namely IP, user-agent and referrer. The commercial relationship is set out in full on the affiliate disclosure page.
You can manage cookies at any time through your browser settings, with instructions for every major browser below. Where third-party cookies require explicit consent under your local law, blocking the third-party script in your browser removes the matching cookie.
Note that blocking all cookies, strictly-necessary ones included, can make parts of the site behave unexpectedly. Your language preference and any other functional state stored in cookies will reset on every visit.
Our analytics provider, GA4, does not act on Do Not Track signals. We treat DNT as advisory and do not change processing based on it. To opt out of GA, use the add-on linked above or block google-analytics.com at the browser or network level.
When the cookies change, whether a provider is added, one is removed or a duration is revised, we update the table above and move the "last updated" date at the top. Earlier versions are available on request through the contact page. Read more about this site and reviewer Mason Caldwell, how we test and rate casinos, with every page on the sitemap.
