Cookie Policy

This page explains the cookies this website (the “Site”) – covering Aviator by Spribe and comparing casinos where the game is available – uses and why. It should be read together with our Privacy Notice.



The short version: cookies on this Site do three specific jobs. They keep the Site working. They show us which Aviator content people actually find worth reading. And they let us receive credit when someone visits from here and registers at a casino. None of that requires knowing who you are, and we have kept our cookie approach built around that constraint.



Continuing to use the Site after the cookie banner has appeared, without adjusting settings, means you accept non-essential cookies as described here. Strictly necessary cookies are always set – the Site does not work without them.

// What a Cookie Is, Simply

A cookie is a tiny data file a website stores on your device when you visit. Your browser keeps it and may send it back on future visits to the same site, letting the site remember you have been there before or recall a setting you previously made. Cookies are passive: they hold information, nothing more, and they cannot run code or carry software of any kind. We use “cookies” throughout this Notice to cover related technologies like pixel tags and browser local storage as well.

// The Four Types We Use

Necessary cookies. Keep the Site running: navigation, security basics, core display. Always on, no consent needed; blocking them at the browser level breaks the Site.

Analytics cookies. Tell us how visitors engage with our Aviator content – the Cashout guide, the Provably Fair explainer, our casino comparisons – so we know what is genuinely useful and what to expand. All aggregated, no individual profiling.

Affiliate tracking cookies. Set when you click through to a casino from here, recording that the referral started on this Site. They log a click and a timestamp. That is the extent of what they capture.

Preference cookies. Remember your cookie settings between visits so the banner does not appear every time.

How the Consent Banner Works

First visit: a banner gives you three options – accept everything non-essential, decline everything non-essential, or open detailed settings to choose category by category. Keep browsing without choosing, and only strictly necessary cookies are set. We do not treat inaction as a yes for analytics or affiliate tracking.

Your choice is stored in a preference cookie. Clear that cookie with everything else and the banner is back next visit, because we have no way of knowing what you decided before. If we ever add a new category of non-essential cookie, we will ask again rather than relying on prior consent.

Worth mentioning: this banner is built to function correctly. Choosing to decline actually declines – it does not set declined cookies anyway while displaying a declined state.

// Every Cookie Running on This Site

The full inventory, kept current, is in the table below. It includes provider, purpose, duration, and category for each cookie.

sid This Site Keeps your current browsing session alive. Session Necessary

// Where Third Parties Come In

A few cookies here are set by tools we have integrated, mainly Google Analytics. Google’s own data practices apply to what it processes from there. We do not allow advertising networks or data brokers on this Site, and nothing here is used to retarget you on other websites.

Once you click through to a casino and the affiliate cookie has done its job, our view of what happens next ends entirely. We do not see your account, your deposits, or any Aviator session. The only thing we eventually learn is whether a commission was credited to us, and that comes back through the casino’s own affiliate reporting system. There is no real-time visibility into what any player does after leaving this Site.

What “No Visibility” Means in Practice

We get this question often enough to address it directly here. There is no back-end dashboard showing us your balance or your session activity at any casino we link to. The affiliate cookie records a click. Everything after that – your registration, your play, your cashout decisions in Aviator – is entirely the casino’s domain and visible only to them.

// Taking Control of Cookies

Three options: our on-site preference tool (first visit, accessible anytime via the cookie settings link); your browser’s own controls; or Google’s Analytics opt-out extension at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Browser paths:

  • Chrome → Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data.
  • Firefox → Settings → Privacy & Security.
  • Safari → Preferences → Privacy.
  • Edge → Settings → Cookies and site permissions.

Turning off non-essential cookies does not stop you reading anything here. It may reduce personalization, and it means we cannot attribute a referral if you later register at a casino.

If You Block Strictly Necessary Cookies

Blocking all cookies at the browser level, including necessary ones, can break the consent tool – since it uses a cookie to remember your prior choice, blocking everything creates a loop where the banner keeps reappearing. Granular management through our on-site panel avoids this problem.

// Consent Mechanics

Consent is requested on first visit and works category by category. You can accept analytics while declining affiliate tracking, or set it the other way around. Withdrawal is available at any time through the preference panel; it stops new non-essential cookies going forward without undoing what was processed while consent was active.

// Cookies and Personal Data

Where a cookie processes data that counts as personal data under applicable law, our Privacy Notice governs that processing: legal basis, retention, your rights. Analytics cookies anonymize IP addresses before storage; affiliate tracking cookies record clicks, not identities.

// Do Not Track

Some browsers send a Do Not Track signal. No agreed technical standard governs how sites should respond, and this Site does not presently adjust behavior in response. Section 6 gives you the more reliable controls.

// Updates

We update this Notice as our cookie usage changes, publishing the current version here. What is live here is authoritative.
