Cookie Policy

Cookies on this Site fall into four groups.

• Necessary cookies. Keep the Site running: navigation, security, core display. Always set, no consent needed. Blocking them at the browser level breaks parts of the Site.
• Analytics cookies. Show us which Gates of Olympus guides get read, how long people stay, and where they came from. Everything is aggregated – no individual user profiling.
• Affiliate tracking cookies. Record when you click through to a casino from here, so we can receive a commission if you register and deposit. They store a click and a timestamp, nothing more.
• Preference cookies. Save your cookie settings between visits so the banner does not reappear every time.

How the Consent Banner Works in Practice

First visit: you see a banner with three choices – accept non-essential cookies, reject them, or choose category by category in detailed settings. If you keep browsing without choosing, we set only the strictly necessary ones. We do not interpret silence as consent for analytics or affiliate tracking.

Whatever you choose gets saved in a preference cookie. Clear all your cookies and the banner comes back next visit – we have no other way of knowing what you chose before.

The consent tool here is built to actually work in the way it says it does. Declining non-essential cookies genuinely prevents them from being set, rather than setting them anyway while displaying a declined state. We mention this because it is not how every site implements consent.

New categories of non-essential cookie will always trigger a fresh consent request rather than relying on existing permission.

Some are set by tools we have plugged in – mainly Google Analytics, governed by Google’s own privacy terms. We do not allow ad networks or data brokers on this Site, and nothing here is used to retarget you elsewhere.

Once you click through to a casino and our affiliate cookie has done its job, what happens next is completely invisible to us. We have no view of your account, your deposits, or your Gates of Olympus sessions there. The only thing we eventually learn is whether a commission was credited, and that comes through the casino’s affiliate reporting system.

What “Completely Invisible” Actually Means

We get this question often enough to address it directly. There is no back-channel showing us your balance, your session history, or your personal activity on any casino platform. The affiliate cookie’s job is to record that a click happened. After that, everything is the casino’s domain.

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

Browser-specific paths: Chrome → Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. Firefox → Settings → Privacy & Security. Safari → Preferences → Privacy. Edge → Settings → Cookies and site permissions.

Switching off non-essential cookies does not stop you reading anything here, but it may limit personalization and affect how accurately we can attribute referrals. If an affiliate referral cannot be tracked, we receive no commission for it. That is a commercial trade-off we accept as the cost of respecting your preference.

A Warning About Blocking Everything

If you block strictly necessary cookies at the browser level, the consent banner may start reappearing on every page, because the cookie that saves your preference has been blocked along with everything else. Granular management through our on-site tool avoids this problem.

Anywhere a cookie processes data that legally counts as personal data, our Privacy Statement governs that processing – legal basis, retention periods, your rights. Analytics cookies anonymize IP addresses before storage; affiliate cookies record clicks, not identities.

This Notice is updated whenever our cookie usage changes. Whatever version is live here is the current one.
