Cookie Policy
Many of the offers that appear on this site are from companies from which Bold Gambler receives compensation. This compensation may impact how and where products appear, but it does not affect our editorial evaluations. Please Gamble Responsibly. Learn more about how we rate.
This page supplements our Privacy Policy and details the cookies and similar technologies we use on boldgambler.com/us, what they’re for, and how you can opt out.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser to remember information between visits. We also use browser local storage, a similar technology, to remember your opt-out choice.
2. How this page differs from other markets
US privacy law (CCPA/CPRA) uses an opt-out model rather than opt-in: analytics and advertising cookies may load by default, and you have the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your information at any time — including automatically, via your browser’s Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal.
3. Cookies we currently use
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| bg_cookie_optout | Bold Gambler (local storage) | Stores your opt-out choice | Necessary | Until you change it or clear browser data |
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare | Bot detection and attack protection | Necessary | 30 minutes |
| wordpress_logged_in_*, comment_author_* | WordPress (our own site) | Admin login and comment form | Necessary | Session to 1 year |
| _ga, _ga_[ID] | Google Analytics | Measures audience and site usage | Analytics | ~13 months |
| _gcl_au | Google Ads | Links ad clicks to conversions (“sharing” under CPRA) | Marketing | 90 days |
| IDE | Google Ads / DoubleClick | Measures ad performance on other sites (“sharing” under CPRA) | Marketing | 24 months |
| test_cookie | Google Ads | Checks whether your browser accepts cookies | Marketing | A few minutes |
This list reflects our current setup and may change as we update our analytics and advertising tools.
4. How to opt out
Click “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” in the notice at the bottom of the page, or anytime via Privacy Preferences. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we detect and honor it automatically — no notice or extra click needed. Once you opt out, that choice is stored until you change it yourself or clear your browser’s local storage; it doesn’t expire on a timer.
5. Managing cookies through your browser
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser’s settings. Blocking necessary cookies may affect how the site works.
6. Third-party cookies
Google and Cloudflare control their own cookies under their respective policies. See Google’s cookie policy for details.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this list as we add or remove tools. The date at the top always reflects the current version.
