Betmica Cookie Policy
What this policy covers
This Betmica cookie policy explains, in plain terms, how our website uses cookies and similar technologies when you browse Betmica from a computer or a mobile device. We want you to understand what a cookie is, why our site sets them, and what choices you have — before you accept or decline anything.
We are an online casino and sportsbook brand serving players in Great Britain, and this page sits alongside our other policies — including our privacy policy and terms — as part of how we describe our own practices to you. Where a topic depends on details we have not published here, such as specific third-party tools in use at any given time, we point you to the relevant settings in your browser rather than guess at specifics that could go out of date.
What a cookie actually is
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your device when you visit it. It does not run programs or carry viruses; its job is simply to let a site remember something between one page load and the next — that you are logged in, that you set a language, or that you have already seen a particular banner. Cookies set by the site you are visiting are usually called first-party cookies, while cookies set by another domain embedded in that page — a video player or an analytics script, for example — are called third-party cookies.
Cookies are usually grouped by purpose. Some are strictly necessary and keep the site functioning: without them, pages like our payment methods page or a secure sign-in screen simply would not work correctly. Others are used for preferences, remembering choices you have already made so you are not asked again on every visit. A further group supports analytics, helping a site understand which pages are read and which are not, generally in aggregate and without identifying you personally. A last group is associated with advertising and measurement, used to limit how often you see the same message and to gauge whether it was relevant.
Most browsers let you view, delete and block cookies through their settings menu, and many display a cookie banner the first time you visit a new site so you can choose what to allow. Turning off non-essential cookies is generally possible without losing access to a site altogether, though it may reset preferences you had previously set.
How cookies typically get used on a gambling website
Keeping you signed in
A strictly necessary cookie can hold a session token so that moving from page to page — say, between our live casino pages and a game lobby — does not require signing in again on every click.
Remembering preferences
Preference cookies commonly store a chosen language, currency display or layout, and whether you have already dismissed an informational banner, so it does not reappear needlessly.
Understanding how pages are used
Analytics cookies are typically used to see, in aggregate, which pages are visited and for how long, which helps a site improve navigation and fix pages that are hard to use — without this being tied back to one identifiable visitor in the reports a site owner sees.
Cookies, our other pages and your settings
Because a cookie policy is really about how a whole site behaves, it naturally touches subjects we describe in more depth elsewhere. If you are weighing up how you would fund an account, our payment methods page is the place for that, rather than this one. If you are wondering whether our games work the same away from a desktop, that is covered on our mobile casino page, since a mobile browser handles cookies in largely the same way as a desktop one, subject to the settings of the device and browser you are using.
We do not use this policy to describe specific bonus mechanics, account verification steps or payout timing, because those are operational details that belong on the pages built for them, and we would rather send you to the right page than blur two different topics together. If in doubt about what a particular cookie prompt on our site is asking, the safest step is to check your browser's own cookie or privacy settings, which list what has been stored and let you remove it.
Common questions about cookies on our site
Do I have to accept cookies to use the site?
Strictly necessary cookies are generally required for core functions such as staying signed in, but non-essential categories can usually be declined through your browser or an on-site cookie prompt without preventing you from browsing our pages.
Can I delete cookies after I have accepted them?
Yes — browsers let you view and clear stored cookies at any time from their settings menu, which will usually reset any preferences tied to those cookies on your next visit.
Does this policy cover how my personal data is used?
This page is specifically about cookies and similar technologies. For how we handle personal data more broadly, our privacy policy is the relevant page to read.
Staying in control while you play
We would rather this policy be short and accurate than long and vague. If a specific question about cookies, tracking or your browser settings is not answered here, your browser's help documentation or privacy settings will usually have the most current and device-specific answer, since cookie controls differ between browsers and are updated over time. We keep this Betmica cookie policy under review so that it continues to reflect how our own pages actually behave.
If you are looking into responsible play alongside your account settings, our responsible gambling page sits alongside this one, and the legal minimum age to gamble in Great Britain is 18+, which applies across our site regardless of the device or browser you use to reach it.
