Cookie policy – systembetsguide.com

A guide to system bets needs few technical tools, and systembetsguide.com uses only those. What follows names the cookies and similar technologies that run here, the reason for each and the means of refusing or changing them. Browsers keep cookies as small text files; local and session storage entries and counting pixels act in a similar way.

The rule

The governing provision is regulation 6 of the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (PECR). To store information on a user’s device, or to read what is already there, a site needs clear and comprehensive information and the user’s consent; the exception is storage strictly necessary for a service the user requested. Consent is judged by the UK GDPR standard (Article 4(11) and Article 7): freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous, and as simple to withdraw as to give. When cookies lead to personal data being processed, the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 also apply.

Set without a choice

A few files are needed for reliable operation. They keep sessions open, distribute load between servers, defend forms against abuse and store the cookie decision itself. No separate choice is requested for them. Session files disappear when the browser closes, and the saved decision lasts no longer than twelve months.

Set after consent

Functional files recall preferences, for instance the calculator or table last opened. Analytics files count page views and show which pages are read, helping to improve the content. The cookie banner must be accepted before either group is set. IP addresses are shortened before analysis, and no profile following behaviour across sites is built.

Other providers

Embedded videos or maps from outside providers may set files of their own, under that provider’s privacy rules; objections go to the provider. Advertising cookies that build profiles for personalised ads are not set by systembetsguide.com unless the banner offers a clear choice.

Changing consent

The “Cookie settings” link in the footer reopens the choice whenever needed. Withdrawal applies from then on and leaves earlier processing lawful. In addition, browsers allow their users to block and delete cookies through privacy settings. After necessary files are removed the banner returns, and some features may be briefly unavailable.

Complaints

Concerns about the handling of personal data can be taken to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority. The privacy policy of this site explains how personal data is processed.
