Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how CasinoLab Reviews — The Local Guide ("we", "us", or "our"), operating at casinolab-reviews.com, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our site. We are an independent comparison resource built for Canadian players aged 19 and over. We do not operate any casino or accept wagers — we simply help you research and compare options in a responsible way.
Reading this policy alongside our Privacy Policy and Affiliate Disclosure will give you a complete picture of how we collect and use information about site visitors.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your browser or device when you visit. They are widely used to make sites work correctly, remember your preferences, and provide site owners with basic performance information. Cookies cannot run programs or deliver viruses, and they do not give us access to anything else on your computer beyond what you share with us.
Alongside traditional cookies, we may also use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage, and pixel tags. All references to "cookies" in this policy cover these technologies as well.
Categories of Cookies We Use
We group the cookies on casinolab-reviews.com into three categories:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies — These are essential for the site to function. They handle things like remembering your cookie-consent choice, maintaining a secure browsing session, and enabling basic navigation between pages such as our casino reviews, methodology, and responsible gambling resources. Because these cookies are required for the site to operate, they are always active and do not need your prior consent.
- Preference Cookies — These remember choices you make to personalise your experience — for example, the province you are browsing from, your preferred table layout, or whether you have dismissed a notification banner. Without these cookies, some personalisation features will reset each time you visit. You can disable them through the cookie settings panel, though some layout preferences may be lost between sessions.
- Consent-Based Analytics Cookies — With your permission, we use analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with the site in aggregate — which review pages attract the most traffic, how long readers spend on a comparison table, and where visitors come from. This data is anonymised before we review it. It helps us improve the accuracy and usefulness of our content, including pages on identifying problem gambling. These cookies are only set after you opt in.
Third-Party Operator Cookies After Click-Through
CasinoLab Reviews contains affiliate links to licensed online casinos. When you click one of those links and visit a third-party operator's site, that operator will place its own cookies on your device according to its own cookie and privacy policies. We have no control over those cookies and no ability to read or modify them.
Our Affiliate Disclosure explains the commercial relationships we have with listed operators. These relationships do not influence our ratings — you can read about our independence in the How We Rate Casinos section. Please review each operator's privacy documentation before creating an account. Remember that all forms of gambling involve financial risk and are not a guaranteed source of income.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several ways to control cookies on this site and in your browser:
- Cookie settings panel — When you first arrive on casinolab-reviews.com, a consent banner lets you accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your choices by category. You can reopen this panel at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in our site footer.
- Browser settings — All major browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. The process varies by browser:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
- Opt-out tools — If we use a third-party analytics provider, you may also opt out directly through that provider's opt-out mechanism. Details are available in our full Privacy Policy.
Cookie Retention Periods
Different cookies remain on your device for different lengths of time:
- Session cookies expire automatically when you close your browser. We use these for temporary navigation and security functions.
- Persistent cookies remain until a fixed expiry date or until you delete them manually. Preference cookies on this site expire after 12 months. Analytics cookies are typically set to expire within 13 months, in line with standard data-minimisation practice.
- Consent record cookies are stored for up to 12 months so we can remember your choice without asking on every visit.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time — for example, if we add new site features, change analytics providers, or if Canadian privacy regulations evolve. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last revised" date at the bottom of this page and, where appropriate, display a notice on the site.
We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of casinolab-reviews.com after any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes, subject to your right to withdraw consent for non-essential cookies at any time. For broader information on how we handle personal data, please read our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
If you have questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us via the details listed in our Privacy Policy.
