Cookie policy
archliteassignments.co.uk is an independent informational portal that reviews online casino platforms for a UK audience, including Smash Casino. This site is not a casino, not a gambling operator, and does not process deposits, bets, or withdrawals. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which types this portal uses, how long they are kept, and how visitors can manage or withdraw consent under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).
Review
What are cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on a device when a page on archliteassignments.co.uk is opened. They allow a returning browser to be recognised, remember basic display settings, and help measure how pages on this portal are used.
Cookies set on this site do not identify a visitor by name and are never used to process any payment or gambling transaction, since this portal only publishes reviews of Smash Casino and similar brands. No cookie on this site opens a betting account or places a wager on a visitor's behalf.
Some cookies are set directly by archliteassignments.co.uk, while others are placed by third-party services used for analytics or content delivery. Both first-party and third-party cookies are covered by the categories described below, regardless of which server sets them.
Types of cookies we use
The table below sets out the categories of cookies used on this portal, their purpose, and typical retention.
| Cookie type | Purpose | Example | Typical duration |
| 🔒 Strictly necessary | Support core navigation, security, and page loading | Session identifier, cookie-consent record | Session to 30 days |
| 📊 Performance and analytics | Measure visits, popular pages, and browsing patterns | Analytics visitor ID | Up to 24 months |
| ⚙️ Functional | Remember display choices such as language or layout | Preference or region setting | Up to 12 months |
| 🎯 Targeting | Help partners assess reach of shared content | Third-party ad identifier | Up to 12 months |
Strictly necessary cookies are applied automatically because the site cannot function correctly without them. Performance, functional, and targeting cookies are only set once a visitor has given consent through the cookie banner shown on first visit.
Retention and storage
Session cookies are removed automatically once a browser is closed. Persistent cookies remain on a device for a fixed period, ranging from a few weeks to two years, depending on their function, as shown in the table above.
Cookie data collected on archliteassignments.co.uk is stored in aggregated or anonymised form wherever possible. It is not combined with other information in a way that would identify a visitor personally.
Once the retention period shown in the table above expires, a cookie is deleted automatically by the browser and is not renewed unless the visitor returns to the portal and a new cookie is set.
Consent and legal basis
This portal processes non-essential cookies on the basis of consent, in line with UK GDPR and PECR. Consent is requested through a banner presented to visitors on their first visit to archliteassignments.co.uk, before any non-essential cookie is set.
Consent can be withdrawn at any time by adjusting cookie preferences through the banner link or by clearing cookies in the browser. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before that point.
Managing and disabling cookies in your browser
Cookies can also be controlled directly through browser settings, separately from the consent banner on this site. Most current browsers allow stored cookies to be viewed, blocked, or deleted at any time. The general steps are similar across browsers:
- Open the browser settings or preferences menu.
- Locate the privacy or security section.
- Select the option for cookies and site data.
- Review the list of stored cookies for archliteassignments.co.uk or other sites.
- Choose to block, delete, or allow cookies as required.
- Restart the browser to apply the updated settings.
Disabling non-essential cookies does not prevent access to this portal, though some display preferences may reset between visits. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be switched off in the browser, as they are required for basic site operation.
Third-party cookies
Some pages on archliteassignments.co.uk may load embedded content or analytics scripts supplied by third-party providers. These providers may set their own cookies, governed by their own separate policies, over which this portal has no direct control.
Third-party cookies used here are limited to analytics and content-delivery functions. This portal does not permit third parties to use cookie data for purposes unrelated to measuring or supporting site performance.
Policy updates and contact
This Cookie Policy takes effect from the date of publication on archliteassignments.co.uk and may be revised from time to time to reflect changes in applicable law or in the cookies used on the site. Any revision is published on this page. Questions or requests relating to this Cookie Policy, including requests to withdraw consent, can be sent to [email protected].
