Cookie Policy | Melhores Casinos Online Portugal
This guide uses cookies to run properly, measure what readers find useful and track clicks to partner casinos. This page explains each category in plain terms and shows you how to take control. You decide what stays on your device.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your browser or device. They hold short pieces of information, such as a session identifier or a preference you chose. Each cookie has a name, a value, an expiry date and a scope showing which site can read it. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay until they expire or you delete them. Similar technologies, such as local storage and pixels, work in a comparable way, and this policy covers them too. Cookies cannot run programs or install software on your device.
Why we use them
We use cookies for three reasons. First, to keep the guide working: loading pages, remembering your consent choice and protecting against abuse. Second, to understand how readers use our casino comparisons so we can fix weak pages and improve the useful ones. Third, to record when a visitor clicks through to a partner operator, so we can be credited for the referral. We do not use cookies to identify you by name, and we do not sell personal data. Our content is for adults only. If gambling stops being fun, please use the responsible gambling tools offered by licensed operators.
Cookie categories and examples
Essential cookies keep the guide functional. Examples: a cookie that stores your consent decision and one that supports page security. These cannot be switched off. Analytics cookies measure visits, pages viewed, time on page and general location. They help us see which comparisons readers value. Affiliate cookies record a click from our guide to a partner casino so a referral can be attributed. They usually last a limited period set by the operator or tracking network. Marketing cookies may help show relevant promotions or measure campaign performance. Analytics, affiliate and marketing cookies only run if you give consent, except where a category is strictly necessary for the service you requested.
How to manage cookies in your browser
Every major browser lets you view, block or delete cookies. In Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, open Settings and find the Privacy or Privacy and Security section. From there you can block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or clear stored cookies on exit. Most browsers also offer private browsing, which discards cookies when the window closes. Be aware that blocking essential cookies may break parts of the guide, and clearing cookies will reset your consent choice. Mobile browsers have similar controls inside their own settings menus. Check your browser's help section for exact steps, as menus change between versions.
Withdrawing your consent
You can change your mind at any time. Reopen the cookie settings control in the page footer and switch off any non-essential category. Your updated choice applies from that moment. You can also delete existing cookies through your browser, which removes the stored consent record and prompts a fresh choice on your next visit. Withdrawing consent does not affect anything done lawfully before you withdrew it. We review this policy regularly and update it when our tools or legal requirements change. The current version applies for 2026. If you have questions about how we handle cookies, use the contact option provided in the site layout.
