Cookie Policy
What cookies we use
- betsng-theme — stores your light/dark theme preference. First-party, persistent, no personal data.
- _ga, _gid — Google Analytics cookies for anonymous traffic measurement.
Your control
You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking _ga/_gid opts you out of Google Analytics. Blocking our theme cookie means your theme preference will reset every visit.
Third-party cookies on affiliate destinations
When you click a link to a sportsbook, that operator sets its own cookies on its site. Bets.ng does not control those cookies.

What is a cookie
A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser so it can remember things between visits — your theme preference, whether you have clicked through our affiliate disclosure banner, whether you are logged into an operator you have linked from our site.
Cookies are not dangerous on their own. The question is what each cookie tracks and how long it lives.
Cookies we use
Strictly necessary — theme toggle, cookie-banner dismissal, session state. These cannot be disabled.
Analytics — Google Analytics 4 with anonymized IP. Helps us see which pages work and which are junk. Expires after 14 months.
Affiliate attribution — our operator partners drop a short-lived cookie (usually 30 days) so that if you sign up later they know the referral came from us.
We do not run advertising cookies. We do not sell your data. We do not share Analytics data with any third party.
Cookies we do not use
Third-party ad networks (no Google Ads, no Facebook Pixel, no Twitter Pixel, no DSP).
Fingerprint tracking libraries.
Session recording tools.
Managing cookies
Your browser lets you reject, clear or block all cookies in the settings.
On Bets.ng specifically, the cookie banner lets you decline analytics and affiliate cookies. Declining does not affect your reading experience but does break affiliate attribution — the operator will not know we sent you.
Private / incognito browsing clears all cookies at the end of each session.
