Cookies help this site remember useful preferences and understand how visitors use our pages. On Magius, we use this short guide to explain the technology in plain English, including the choices available in your browser. The site is intended for adults aged 18+ only, and gambling should always remain a form of entertainment rather than a routine or source of income.
Cookies in plain terms
A cookie is a small file placed on your device by a website. It can store basic preferences, help a page load correctly or provide anonymous information about visits. These files do not give us control over your computer, and you can remove them through your browser settings if you prefer.
Some cookies are needed for the site to operate properly. Others may be used to measure traffic, remember choices or support promotional content. We keep our use of these technologies limited to purposes that help us maintain and improve the information service.
What is stored and for how long
The categories used on this site fall into several broad groups. The purpose and likely duration of each category depend on the service that places it.
| Cookie category | What it does | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Supports core features, page delivery and basic site preferences. | Short-term or session-based |
| Analytics | Helps us understand which pages are visited and how the site performs. | Set according to the analytics service used |
| Preference | Remembers choices such as language or display preferences. | Until you change or remove the preference |
| Marketing | May support campaign measurement and relevant advertising. | Set according to the advertising service used |
You can clear cookies at any time through your browser controls. Doing so may remove saved preferences, although the main pages should remain available.
Embedded third parties
Some pages may load content or scripts from external providers. These services can place their own cookies or collect information about your visit, including technical details used to measure performance and prevent misuse. Their use of data is governed by their own privacy information, so we recommend reading it before interacting with embedded features.
We do not control how third-party services handle information once it reaches their systems. If you would rather reduce that activity, your browser's privacy settings can block cookies or scripts from particular sites.
Declining cookies without breaking the site
You can accept, reject or amend your choices where a consent control is available. If you reject optional cookies, core functions such as reading articles and moving between pages should continue to work. Some optional features may work differently, such as audience measurement or personalised promotional content.

Useful starting points include the cookie controls in Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge. Your device may also offer system-wide privacy settings or parental-control software such as Net Nanny or Qustodio, which can be useful on a shared device.
Updates to this cookie policy
We may revise this policy when the site changes or when our understanding of relevant requirements develops. The updated wording will appear on this page, so it is worth checking back when you return. Questions about this notice can be sent to [email protected].
