1. What this policy covers
This page explains how Slot Perk Market uses cookies, similar browser technologies and local storage. Some items are strictly practical, such as remembering that you have passed the 18+ overlay or already made a cookie-consent choice. Others may support basic measurement of how readers move through the site so we can improve layout, navigation and editorial presentation.
2. The storage we use for core site functions
The current site uses browser local storage keys named spmarket_age and spmarket_cookies. The first remembers that you have confirmed you are 18 or over. The second stores whether you accepted or declined the cookie banner. Without those values, the age gate and consent prompt would keep appearing on every page load, which would be disruptive and would make the site harder to use.
3. Why we treat these items as essential
Those storage items are used to provide a safe and workable browsing experience. The age gate helps restrict access to adult-oriented gambling content. The consent value prevents repetitive prompts once a choice has been made. Because these functions are tied to the operation and compliance posture of the site, they are treated as essential to the basic service.
4. Analytics and performance cookies
We may use limited analytics or performance tools to understand broad trends such as page popularity, exit points, mobile rendering issues and broken journeys. We aim to keep this restrained. The purpose is to see whether the site is understandable and technically stable, not to build a detailed behavioural profile of any individual reader. Where analytics are used, we prefer implementations that minimise the amount of personal data involved.
5. Managing your choices
You can accept or decline the cookie banner from the controls shown on the site. You can also clear or block cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Doing so may reset the age overlay and consent prompts, since the site will no longer remember that those actions were completed earlier.
6. Third-party content and external links
When you click from Slot Perk Market to a casino, support organisation or any other third-party page, that destination may place its own cookies or use its own tracking technologies. We do not control those systems. Readers should review the cookie and privacy policies of any external service they use after leaving this site.
7. Retention and review
Browser-stored values remain until they are deleted, replaced or cleared by the user or browser. We may revise how storage works if the site changes, if regulations evolve or if our measurement tools are adjusted. When that happens, this policy will be updated so the practical explanation keeps pace with the technical reality.
