When you open any page on the internet, your browser exchanges small pieces of data with the server that runs the website. The data stored on your device by the browser is known as cookies. This page explains how the website casino-iraq-online.com uses cookies and how you can control them.
The purpose of this page is simply to explain how this Iraq betting site works, so that visitors know what data is collected about them when they visit.
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a text file stored in your web browser when you visit any website. It contains only simple information and carries no code or viruses of any kind. It typically holds details such as the language used to display the site, the number of times a page has been visited, and your login status (if any).
By duration, cookies fall into two types: session cookies, which are deleted automatically as soon as you close the browser, and persistent cookies, which stay on the device longer until they expire or the user deletes them manually. This distinction explains why retention periods differ between the cookie categories described later on this page.
Types of Cookies Used on the Site
Besides classification by storage duration, cookies can also be distinguished by their source: first-party cookies, which the site sets itself, and third-party cookies, which are set by external tools such as analytics services or the betting companies that visitors are referred to. By function, websites use different types of cookies for different purposes:
- Essential cookies: provide the site’s core functions, such as easy menu navigation and language options like the Arabic or Kurdish version.
- Analytics cookies: collect information about visits to the site, such as the number of visitors, the number of pages viewed, and how many seconds a visitor stays on the site.
- Functional cookies: store the preferences a visitor selects in different sections of the site.
- Referral and marketing tracking cookies: when you click the “Get Bonus” link shown for one of the listed betting companies, a small file is stored on your device that links you to that visit.
Third-Party Tools Used
In addition to the cookies set by the site, Google Tag Manager is used to manage the collection of analytics data. Google Tag Manager does not increase the amount of data collected; it makes that collection easier to manage from a technical standpoint.
Some of the betting companies listed in the guide also set their own cookies when you visit their websites through a bonus link. These cookies are not covered by this site’s privacy policy. They fall under the betting company’s own privacy policy, which you should review before registering.
Consent and Legal Basis
When you first visit the site, a short notice usually appears asking for your consent to non-essential cookies, such as analytics or referral cookies. Essential cookies do not require explicit consent because the page cannot work without them, while all other categories are activated only after you choose to accept them.
Iraq does not yet have a unified legal regulation that specifically governs the use of cookies, unlike some countries that have dedicated legislation for this purpose. However, the right to privacy is generally protected under Iraq’s constitutional and legal framework, and the site follows internationally recognized practices in this area, regardless of the absence of a specific local requirement.
When you delete cookies from your browser, the stored consent data is deleted along with them, so the consent notice appears again on your next visit. This is normal and does not indicate a technical error on the site.
How Is This Data Used?
The information collected by cookies is used for specific purposes only:
- Displaying the page correctly on different devices.
- Remembering the language and settings you have chosen.
- Measuring content performance.
- Linking visitors who click the links to the betting company, since this information concerns the betting company itself rather than the comparison site.
Cookies are not used to collect card numbers or passwords. If any card or registration details are collected by one of the betting companies, that data is handled within separate privacy frameworks, and details of this policy are provided on the site’s Privacy Policy page.
Controlling Cookies
You can control cookies through your web browser settings on casino-iraq-online.com or any other website, regardless of your device type:
Disabling Cookies in Your Browser
- Open your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or another browser).
- Select the “Cookies and other site data” option.
- Choose to delete stored cookies, block cookies from websites, or turn them off completely.
On mobile phones, these options are in the device settings or the browser app.
Private Browsing
Incognito mode deletes all cookies when you close the browser window. Many users in Iraq prefer this option when browsing comparison sites over mobile data.
Controlling Cookies on Your Phone
As mentioned above, you can control cookies through your phone’s settings.
Note
Disabling essential cookies will affect how some content on the website is displayed.
Cookies on Shared Devices
In some homes and in cafés that offer internet access in Iraq, the same device is used by more than one person. In this case, it is best to delete cookies or turn on private browsing after each session, so that sorting preferences and recent browsing history are not left visible to the next person using the same device. It is a simple step, but it helps protect your privacy when you share a computer or phone with family members or colleagues.
Cookies and Mobile Data Usage
Cookies are very small and negligible compared with the size of the images or videos on a page, so in practice they do not affect your mobile data allowance. The real impact on browsing speed usually comes from other elements on the page, not from the cookies themselves. This is a useful point for anyone browsing comparison sites over 4G networks in Iraq and keeping an eye on their monthly data plan.
What Happens If I Reject Cookies?
If you reject or delete cookies, only secondary functions are affected: your language preference returns to the default on each new visit, table filters are not saved, and you may have to repeat some steps that cookies used to handle automatically. Access to company reviews, betting company comparisons, and information on payment methods in Iraq is not affected.
Cookie Retention Period
How long a cookie is kept depends on its type. Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close the browser. Functional and analytics cookies may be stored for several months or longer. Cookies involved in referrals to betting sites and companies are kept long enough to record the visit to the betting company, after which their window for recording this data expires automatically. No cookie is kept indefinitely, so any information the systems no longer need is deleted.
In some cases, a betting company may take several days to record a referral after the link is clicked, especially if the visitor does not complete registration right away. For this reason, referral cookies remain active for a short period after the first visit instead of being deleted immediately, so that the visit is counted correctly.
Updates to This Page
The list of cookies in use may change as the site develops or new tools are added. This page is updated whenever the use of cookies changes significantly, so that its description matches how the site actually works.
Contact About Cookies
You can contact the support team via live chat, available 24/7. The support team answers technical questions of this kind without any complicated procedures. You can also review the site’s Privacy Policy for more information on how data is collected and analyzed.
Managing cookies is not complicated: it takes just a few minutes in your web browser. Once you know what happens behind the scenes on betting comparison sites, you are in control of this decision.
