Cookie Policy
Last updated: May 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies this Site uses, and how you can manage or disable them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website owners about how their site is being used.
Cookies can be either "session cookies", which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies", which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services used by that website ("third-party cookies").
Cookies We Use
1. Essential Cookies (Cloudflare)
These cookies are necessary for the Site to function securely and cannot be switched off. They are set by Cloudflare, our hosting and security provider, and are used to manage network traffic, protect against malicious attacks, and ensure the Site loads correctly.
| Cookie Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare | Bot management and security | 30 minutes |
| _cfuvid | Cloudflare | Rate limiting and DDoS protection | Session |
2. Analytics Cookies (Google Analytics)
We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use this Site. These cookies collect information about the pages you visit, how long you spend on each page, how you arrived at the Site, and the type of device you are using. The data is aggregated and anonymised and is not used to identify individual users.
| Cookie Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |

| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique users | 2 years |
| _ga_[ID] | Google Analytics | Maintains session state | 2 years |
3. Affiliate Tracking Cookies
When you click a link to a casino listed on this Site, you are redirected via an affiliate tracking URL. The destination casino or its affiliate programme may set cookies on your device to record that you arrived via Digital Austen. These cookies allow the casino to attribute any subsequent account registration or deposit to us, which is how we earn commissions.
These are third-party cookies set by the casino operator's own systems or their affiliate programme provider. The specific cookies set will vary by operator. We do not have direct access to or control over these cookies, and they are governed by the respective operator's privacy and cookie policies.
Affiliate tracking cookies are typically persistent and may remain on your device for 30 to 90 days, depending on the operator.
