Cookie Policy

Last updated: 4 June 2026

This policy explains how nbastatsforbetting.com uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the site. It is written for adult readers in Great Britain and reflects the requirements of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation as enforced by the Information Commissioner’s Office.

What a cookie is

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. The next time you visit, the browser sends the cookie back, and the site uses it to recognise you, remember your preferences, or measure how the site is used. Similar technologies, including local storage, session storage and pixel tags, work in comparable ways. This policy uses the word “cookies” to cover all of them.

Our approach

We keep cookie use deliberately narrow. Cookies that are strictly necessary for the site to work are set without consent, as the law permits. Every other cookie is set only after you give consent through the consent banner that appears on your first visit. You may withdraw consent at any time by reopening the banner from the link in the footer.

We do not use cookies to build detailed advertising profiles. We do not share cookie-derived data with advertising networks. We do not sell personal data collected through cookies.

Categories of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the site to function and for security. They support page navigation, remember your cookie-consent decision so the banner does not reappear on every page load, and protect against common forms of abuse. Strictly necessary cookies are set without consent. Disabling them in your browser will prevent parts of the site from working correctly.

Typical examples include a session identifier that lasts for the duration of your visit, a consent-state cookie that lasts for up to twelve months, and a security cookie used to mitigate cross-site request forgery.

Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies, set only with your consent, help us understand which articles are read, how readers arrive at the site, and where readers encounter problems. Data is aggregated and used to improve editorial coverage and the site’s structure. We configure analytics with IP anonymisation where the provider supports it and we restrict data retention to a reasonable minimum.

Analytics cookies may persist for up to twenty-four months. You may decline analytics through the cookie banner or withdraw consent later. Withdrawing consent does not delete data previously collected; for that, please see our Privacy Policy.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies remember choices you make on the site, such as a preferred odds format if such a setting becomes available in future, or whether you have dismissed a notification. They are set only with your consent and typically persist for up to twelve months. Functional cookies are not used to track you across other sites.

Cookies we do not use

nbastatsforbetting.com does not currently use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, social-media trackers, or third-party tracking technologies whose purpose is profiling for marketing. If this changes, this policy will be updated, and consent will be requested before any such cookie is set.

Managing your preferences

You can review or change your cookie preferences at any time by reopening the consent banner using the link in the site footer. Your choice is remembered for up to twelve months, after which we ask again.

You can also manage cookies through your browser. Most modern browsers allow you to block cookies, delete existing cookies, or be notified before a cookie is set. The exact steps vary by browser; the help section of your browser will explain the options for your version. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent parts of the site from working correctly.

Useful regulator and industry resources, available from your browser, include the Information Commissioner’s Office for the UK regulatory perspective, and the National Cyber Security Centre for general guidance on safe browsing.

Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Some browsers transmit a Do Not Track header or a Global Privacy Control signal. Standards for honouring these signals are still developing. nbastatsforbetting.com treats a Global Privacy Control signal as a valid signal of consent withdrawal and, where reasonably possible, will not set non-essential cookies in that session.

Lawful basis

For strictly necessary cookies, our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in providing a working website. For all other cookies, our lawful basis is your consent, which is collected through the cookie banner. You may withdraw consent at any time, and withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in cookies in use, law or technology. The “last updated” date at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes, such as the introduction of a new cookie category, will be brought to your attention through the consent banner, and consent will be re-requested where required.
