Cookies Policy

Cookies attract suspicion, often deservedly, because hardly anyone explains what they actually do. On lecowboycasino.com their number stays small, simply because an information site has little use for them. This page lists the ones in use and sets out what each is for.

One point frames everything that follows. There are no gambling accounts here, no deposits and no payments, so we handle no financial data and no identity documents. The kind of tracking a gambling platform needs simply does not exist on these pages.

What a cookie actually is

A cookie is a tiny text file that a site places in your browser to carry a piece of information from one page to the next. Without it, every click would start from scratch and any preference you set would vanish immediately. Its purpose ends there, with nothing more exotic behind it.

A cookie runs no programs, carries no viruses and cannot reach the files on your device. It holds strings of text, and its power stops where that text stops. The fears around the word come from how cookies get used, not from the technology itself.

The categories in use

A small number of clearly separated categories operate on this site:

• Essential cookies, needed for pages to load and function correctly
• Preference cookies, which store choices such as your consent settings
• Statistical cookies, which count visits anonymously and in aggregate

Only the essential ones are strictly necessary, while the rest stay optional and pass through the consent banner. None of them build a commercial profile to sell to anyone. A site that informs has no need for the machinery of a site that sells.

Measurement tools

Some cookies come from external analytics services of the sort used across the web. They record the number of people reading a page and which channel brought them there, without names or addresses. The data shows which content works and which needs rewriting.

Each external provider applies its own policy, published on its own site. We keep the use of these tools to what is genuinely useful. Blocking them from the banner or your browser settings remains possible at any time.

Links to other sites

Following a link to a casino takes you off these pages and into a different environment altogether. That site may set cookies of its own, under rules that have nothing to do with us. Its policy becomes the only relevant reference from that point onward.

For that reason we suggest reading an operator’s terms before registering or depositing anything. What happens on their servers lies entirely beyond our reach. The boundary between the two environments is sharp and worth keeping in mind.

How long they last

Session cookies last as long as your visit and disappear when the browser closes. Persistent ones survive longer, from a few days to several months, depending on the job they do. A stored consent choice, for instance, has to outlast a single session to be worth anything.

Once a cookie expires it is removed automatically, unless a fresh visit renews it. You can bring that moment forward by deleting them yourself. Final control sits in your browser, as it always has.

Blocking and deleting

Every modern browser lets you block, limit or delete cookies from its settings, usually under privacy or security. Options generally allow rules per individual site rather than a blanket switch. Deleting preference cookies also clears any stored consent, which will be requested again on your next visit.

Settings apply only to the browser you change them in, so a phone and a laptop stay independent. Anyone using several browsers has to repeat the process in each one. Private windows normally clear everything when they close.

Updates to this policy

This policy changes when the cookies on the site change, and the version published here is always the one that applies. We send no separate notice for each amendment, so an occasional check is the sensible approach. Any significant change remains visible in the text itself.

Questions about cookies or data can go to the address given on the contact page. Between this page and the site’s wider terms, most doubts on the subject find an answer. Anything still unclear is worth writing in about.
