Cookie questions
Does NewCasinoRank use advertising cookies?
The cookies listed in this policy are for running the site, personalisation, A/B tests, country settings, analytics (Google Analytics) and performance monitoring (New Relic). A casino's own site sets its own cookies once you leave ours.
Can I use the site without cookies?
Yes. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some features, such as remembered settings, may stop working. For how we handle personal data more generally, read our privacy policy.
How do I stop Google Analytics from tracking me?
Block third-party cookies in your browser, or install Google's opt-out browser add-on for Google Analytics.
Do affiliate links set cookies?
When you follow a link to a casino, the casino and its tracking partners may set cookies on their own site to record that you came from us. Their cookie policies apply there. We earn a commission through some links, and the order of casinos is set by our ranking method.
When did this policy last change?
The policy took effect on 22 February 2023. The date at the top of the page shows when the page was last updated. If you have a question about this policy, send it through our contact page.
What is the difference between a session cookie and a persistent cookie?
A session cookie lasts only for your browsing session. It helps the site follow one visit, and it is deleted when you close your browser. A persistent cookie stays on your device after you close the browser and can be read again on a later visit, which is how a setting such as your country can be remembered. The table on this page marks each cookie as session or persistent, so you can see which kind it is before you decide whether to block it.
Which cookies on this site come from another company?
Most cookies in our table are first-party cookies, set by newcasinorank.com itself, such as deployr-uid, deployr-experiment and deployr-visitor-country. The _ga cookies are the only entry in that table from another domain, because Google Analytics sets them. The policy also lists New Relic among its third-party cookies for performance monitoring. Our privacy policy describes the personal and technical data these tools help us collect.
What does the country cookie do?
The deployr-visitor-country cookie stores a country setting that the site uses to tailor the experience, for example the language. It is a first-party cookie and is marked persistent, so the setting can carry over to your next visit. Deleting it removes the stored setting, and the next visit starts without it. If you block it, the site cannot remember that setting.
What do the experiment cookies do?
The deployr-experiment cookie supports A/B testing, a method that shows different groups of visitors different versions of a page so the versions can be compared. It is a first-party persistent cookie, so a visitor can remain in the same group across visits. Deleting it removes that group assignment.
How can I see the cookies a page has set?
Most desktop browsers list the cookies stored for the site you are viewing, with each cookie's name, the domain that set it and its expiry date. Compare that list with the table on this page. A cookie stored under a different domain was set by that other site, not by us. If a cookie on your list has no entry in our table, tell us through our contact page and include the cookie name and the page where you saw it.
