This page explains how whizzbangpop.co.uk uses cookies on the pages where we cover Fatpirate casino and sportsbook. It has nothing to do with cookies the operator itself might set once you visit its own platform – this is about our portal only, and what happens on your browser while you read our content.
How this site remembers you
A cookie is a small text file dropped on your device when you load a page. It doesn't identify you by name, but it can remember choices you've made here – whether you've dismissed a banner, for instance – so you're not asked the same thing twice on your next visit. Some cookies last only for the session; others sit on your device for weeks or months.
- Necessary – keep the site functioning (navigation, security, remembering consent choices).
- Analytics – help us understand which pages get read, set only with your consent.
- Marketing & advertising – used to measure how readers arrive at the site, also consent-based.
- Preference – remember display settings such as language.
The analytics question
We rely on analytics cookies to see which articles are useful and which need rewriting – nothing more sinister than that. They're never active until you've given consent through the banner, and declining them doesn't stop you reading a single word of our Fatpirate coverage. What you lose is nothing on your side; what we lose is visibility into whether the page did its job.
Scripts we do not control
A handful of embedded elements – think a video player or a widget – may set their own third-party cookies once loaded. We don't control what those scripts do internally, and their own privacy notices govern that behaviour, not ours. If you'd rather avoid them entirely, blocking third-party cookies at browser level is the most reliable route.
Your options
You can manage or delete cookies at any time through your browser rather than waiting for our banner to ask again.
- 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.
Turning off non-essential cookies won't break the site, though some preference settings may reset each time you return. This portal is intended for readers aged 18+, in line with our wider responsible gambling stance – see our dedicated page on that subject for support links.
Revisions
We update this policy when the cookies we use change, not on a fixed schedule. The version here was last reviewed in 2026, and checking back periodically is the only way to catch a change, since we don't send notices for minor edits.
Questions about this policy can go to [email protected]. This is an editorial mailbox – it can't help with anything on the operator's own platform, only with how whizzbangpop.co.uk itself is run.
