This Cookie Policy explains how FurlongStake uses cookies and similar storage technologies on the website at typesbethors. It complements our Privacy Policy, which covers personal data more broadly. By using typesbethors and managing your preferences through the cookie banner, you control how non-essential cookies are set on your device.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. The next time you visit, the browser sends the cookie back, which allows the site to recognise the device, remember a preference, or measure how the site is being used. Similar technologies — local storage, session storage, pixels — work in comparable ways and we group them under the term “cookies” in this Policy for readability.
Cookies cannot read other files on your device, cannot install software, and cannot identify you as an individual on their own. The information they contain is limited to what the site that set them placed in them.
Legal basis under UK law
The use of cookies in the United Kingdom is governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and by UK GDPR for any associated personal data. Strictly necessary cookies — those required for the site to function — do not need consent. All other cookies require consent before being set. We seek that consent through the cookie banner displayed on your first visit and through the preferences route below.
Categories of cookies we use
We use a small, deliberate set of cookies grouped into the three categories below.
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for typesbethors to load and function correctly. They handle session state, basic security checks against automated abuse, and the cookie banner itself (so that we remember your consent choice and do not show the banner on every page load). Strictly necessary cookies are set when you arrive at the site and do not require consent under PECR.
Typical lifetimes are a few hours for session cookies and up to 12 months for the cookie that remembers your consent preference.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies measure how readers navigate the site — which guides are read, how far down each page readers scroll, where readers arrive from, and which articles are leaving readers without an obvious next step. We use a privacy-respecting analytics tool that truncates IP addresses where supported and does not identify individual readers. These cookies are set only after you give consent through the cookie banner.
Typical lifetimes are between 30 days and 24 months depending on the specific cookie. You can withdraw consent at any time and the cookies will stop being read on subsequent visits.
Preference cookies
Preference cookies remember small choices that improve your reading experience — for example, if we add a feature to remember whether you have read a particular guide already, or to remember a chosen text size. These are set only after you give consent.
Typical lifetimes are up to 12 months.
What we do not do
We do not use advertising cookies. We do not run programmatic advertising on the site. We do not allow third-party advertisers to set cookies through our pages. We do not use cookies to build a profile of you across other websites. We do not share cookie data with social networks for retargeting.
Third-party cookies
Some pages on typesbethors link to third-party sources — for example, the British Horseracing Authority, the Gambling Commission, the Horserace Betting Levy Board and GamCare. We do not embed third-party widgets or trackers that would set cookies through our pages. If you follow a link to a third-party site, that site will set its own cookies under its own policy, and we have no control over those cookies.
How to manage your preferences
You can change your cookie preferences in two ways:
- Through the cookie banner — the banner displayed on your first visit lets you accept strictly necessary cookies only, or to accept analytics and preference cookies as well. The same controls are available through a preferences link in the site footer.
- Through your browser settings — every modern browser allows you to view the cookies set on your device, to delete them individually or in bulk, to block specific sites from setting cookies, and to clear all cookies when you close the browser. The “Help” menu of your browser explains how to do this. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent the site from working correctly.
Withdrawing consent for analytics or preference cookies does not delete cookies that were previously set on your device. To clear those, use your browser’s cookie management controls.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Where your browser sends a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a request to opt out of non-essential cookies. Strictly necessary cookies remain in operation because the site cannot function without them.
Changes to this Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example to reflect a change to the analytics tool we use or to the categories of cookies we set. When we make a change we update the “Last updated” date at the top of the page. The current version is always the one published at typesbethors/cookie-policy/.
