Our Cookie Policy
This page explains every cookie we set when you visit casino-lab.org.uk, what each one does, how long it stays on your device and the choices you have. We keep the wording plain on purpose: no legal jargon, just the facts.
What Cookies Actually Do
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. Your browser stores it and sends it back to us on your next visit, which is how the site remembers you.
We use cookies to keep you logged in, remember your game filters and measure how our 6,000+ game library performs across pages. Cookies do not read files on your computer and they cannot install anything. Each one holds a short string of text, nothing more.
The Cookies We Set
Strictly necessary
These keep the site working. Session cookies hold your login state on Casinolab Casino, authentication cookies confirm it is really you after you enter your credentials, and security cookies protect deposit and withdrawal flows against fraud. Without them you cannot log in, deposit or play. We do not ask for consent for these because the site cannot function without them.
Functional
Functional cookies remember your choices: language (English, Français, Deutsch or Español), currency display (GBP by default), game layout preferences and whether you have dismissed our cookie banner. They save you re-setting the same options on every visit.
Analytics
Analytics cookies tell us, in aggregated form, which pages players open, where they leave and which of our promotions gets clicks. We use the results to fix slow pages and improve navigation. The data is anonymised and never tied to your name or balance.
Marketing
Marketing cookies support retargeting, so our welcome bonus or weekly cashback messages reach people who showed interest but did not sign up. They also limit how often you see the same advert. If you decline these, the site works exactly the same for you; you simply see fewer relevant offers.

Cookies From Third Parties
Some cookies on our pages belong to other companies, not to us. We permit three categories: analytics providers that measure traffic on our behalf, advertising networks that run retargeting for our promotions, and payment providers whose cookies keep deposit and withdrawal sessions secure when you use Visa Debit, Skrill or Trustly.
Third-party cookies activate only if you have accepted the matching category in our banner. We list the provider name and purpose for each one at the point of consent, and we do not permit third parties to set anything outside the categories above.
