This page explains how goldenlion-online.uk, an independent portal that publishes information about Goldenlion casino and sportsbook, uses cookies when you visit. It does not describe how the operator's own site behaves once you leave here and register there – that's a separate matter, governed by the operator's own policies, not ours.
Cookies in plain terms
A cookie is a small text file a website leaves in your browser so it can remember something about your visit – a preference, a session, or simply that you've been here before. Cookies don't read your hard drive and they can't infect your device with anything. Most of what keeps this portal working smoothly, from remembering that you've dismissed a banner to loading a page correctly, relies on a handful of them.
We use cookies for a few practical purposes: keeping the site functional, understanding roughly how many people read a given article, and – where you've agreed to it – supporting any advertising shown alongside our content.
What is stored and for how long
| Category | Purpose | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Keeps core pages and settings working | Session or up to 1 year |
| Analytics (consent) | Aggregate traffic and readership patterns | Up to 2 years |
| Marketing & advertising (consent) | Ad relevance and frequency | Up to 1 year |
| Preference | Remembers choices like language | Up to 1 year |
None of these categories store your name, your bank details or anything you'd type into a casino account – that data, if it exists at all, sits with the operator, not with us.
Embedded third parties
Some elements on this portal are loaded from third-party services – an analytics package that tallies visits, or an advertising network that funds independent coverage like this. Each of those providers may set its own cookie once its script runs, under its own privacy terms rather than ours. We don't control what those third parties do with their own cookies, only which scripts we choose to embed.
- Analytics scripts – measure pages read and time spent, in aggregate
- Advertising scripts – control which ads you see and how often
- Embedded media, where used – may set a cookie of its own
Declining without breaking the site
You can manage or clear cookies at any time through your browser settings – the process differs slightly depending on which one you use.
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Turning off non-essential categories won't stop you reading this portal – you'll still be able to browse everything about Goldenlion's bonus terms, payment methods and game library. Blocking the necessary category, however, may mean some pages don't display quite as intended.
Updates to this notice
We may revise this policy as the tools we use change – a new analytics provider, a different ad partner, or a legal requirement we need to reflect. Any material change will be posted here with an updated date, so it's worth a glance back occasionally rather than assuming nothing has moved.
Questions about this policy, or about how goldenlion-online.uk itself handles data, can go to [email protected]. This notice was last reviewed in 2026.
