This notice describes cookies and browser storage identified for BettingWow during a review on 9 September 2026. A cookie is information a service stores in the browser and can receive with later requests. Local storage can also save information in the browser, but works differently from a cookie.
Storage identified in the review
| Name | Purpose and provider | Duration information |
|---|---|---|
cf_clearance |
Cloudflare security and challenge-detection state, observed for the BettingWow domain. | The sampled browser received an expiry approximately one year ahead. Effective validity can differ with Cloudflare settings and later security checks. |
bw-theme (local storage) |
BettingWow’s light/dark display preference when a preference is saved. | Local storage has no built-in timed expiry; it can remain until changed or cleared. |
Cloudflare’s cookie documentation describes cf_clearance, and its JavaScript-detection guidance explains its security use. The observed cookie expiry is not a guarantee that a visitor will avoid future challenges for a year.
Performance requests and other processing
The sampled pages loaded a Cloudflare performance beacon and sent a performance-reporting request. Browser storage is only one part of website processing: receiving a page or sending a measurement can create a network request even where no analytics cookie is set. Cloudflare explains the measurement service in its Web Analytics documentation.
No Google Analytics cookies or the previously described session_id and cookie_consent cookies were observed in the public-page sample. They are not listed here as deployed features. Different visits or services can behave differently, so this is not an exhaustive claim about every possible cookie.
Your browser choices
You can use your browser’s site-data settings to inspect or clear cookies and local storage for BettingWow. Clearing a saved display preference can reset the theme choice. Blocking or clearing security cookies can lead to further checks or difficulty accessing the site.
A browser’s cookie control does not automatically stop every network request or erase records already held by a server. The privacy notice describes the logging identified and the retention details still being confirmed.
When you follow another website’s link
External and referral destinations may use their own cookies, identifiers or other storage. Their settings and durations should be explained by those services. This notice does not assign a guessed 30- or 90-day lifetime to every affiliate cookie.
What is still being confirmed
The publisher’s legal identity, monitored privacy contact, complete provider arrangements and any further consent requirements need confirmation. This page does not claim that every use is exempt from consent or that an unobserved preference-control banner exists.
The ICO’s guidance on cookies and similar technologies explains why clear information and the applicable consent rules matter. This notice will need to reflect verified changes to the website and its services.
