This cookie policy explains what cookies are, how the Box Bet Horse Racing guide website uses them, and how you can manage your preferences.

What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They are widely used to make websites function properly, improve user experience, and provide information to site operators about how their pages are used. Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third-party services operating on that site (third-party cookies).

Cookies may be stored on your device for different lengths of time. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually.

How We Use Cookies

This website is an informational resource about box betting in UK horse racing. We use a limited number of cookies to support core site functionality and understand how visitors interact with our content.

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly. They enable basic features such as page navigation, security protections, and content delivery. Essential cookies do not collect personal information and cannot be disabled without affecting how the site operates. They are typically set in response to actions you take on the site, such as loading a page or adjusting a display preference.

Analytics Cookies

We may use analytics cookies provided by third-party services such as Google Analytics to collect anonymous, aggregated information about how visitors use our website. This includes data such as which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors spend on each page, which external websites referred visitors to our site, and the general geographic region of visitors based on anonymised IP data.

Analytics cookies help us understand which content is most useful to readers and where we can improve our guides. The data collected is statistical and does not identify any individual visitor. Google Analytics operates under its own terms and privacy policy, which you can review at Google Privacy Policy.

Preference Cookies

If our website offers user-facing settings such as a light or dark theme toggle, preference cookies may be used to remember your selection between visits. These cookies store only the setting you have chosen and do not contain personal information.

Third-Party Cookies

When our pages include content or services from third parties, those providers may set their own cookies on your device. We do not control the cookies set by third-party services. The third-party providers that may set cookies through our site include Google (for analytics) and content delivery networks used to serve fonts and static resources.

We do not use advertising cookies or allow third-party advertising networks to place cookies through our site. We do not participate in behavioural advertising or cross-site tracking for marketing purposes.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. All major browsers allow you to view which cookies are stored on your device, delete individual cookies or all cookies at once, block cookies from specific websites or from all websites, and set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being set.

Instructions for managing cookies vary by browser. You can find guidance for the most commonly used browsers at the following locations: Google Chrome cookie settings, Mozilla Firefox cookie settings, Apple Safari cookie settings, and Microsoft Edge cookie settings.

Please note that blocking or deleting certain cookies may affect the functionality of this website. If you disable essential cookies, some features may not work as intended.

Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a Do Not Track (DNT) setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing activity not be tracked. There is currently no universal standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. Our use of analytics is limited to anonymised, aggregated data collection and does not constitute individual tracking as commonly understood.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable regulations. Any updates will be published on this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
