A short, honest page: one strictly-necessary cookie, two local preferences, and nothing else. Here's exactly what happens when you load a page.
localStorage, on your device only. None of this is used for tracking, analytics, or advertising, and no third-party ad or analytics cookie is set by cryptobetgrade.com.
A cookie is a small piece of data a website asks your browser to store and send back on later visits — usually to remember who you are, a preference, or to track behaviour across visits for analytics or advertising. This Site asks your browser to store the minimum needed to keep you logged in, and nothing for tracking or advertising.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
cbg_session | Strictly necessary — keeps you logged in after you click your one-time email login link. Set only if you log in. | 30 days, or until you log out |
This cookie is exempt from consent under GDPR/ePrivacy rules because it's strictly necessary for a feature you asked for (staying logged in) — it isn't used for analytics, tracking, or advertising, and nothing is set until you actually log in.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
cbg_cookie_notice_dismissed(localStorage, not a cookie) | Remembers that you dismissed the notice at the bottom of the page, so it doesn't reappear on every visit. Stored only in your browser — never sent to us. | Until you clear your browser's site data |
cbg_theme(localStorage, not a cookie) | Remembers whether you picked dark or light mode using the toggle in the top navigation. Stored only in your browser — never sent to us. | Until you clear your browser's site data |
Loading this Site's pages does trigger a small number of automatic requests to services we don't control, even though none of them set a cookie in your browser via this Site:
| Service | Why | What it can see |
|---|---|---|
| Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com, fonts.gstatic.com) | Loads the "Poppins" typeface used in the logo/wordmark. | Your IP address, as part of the font-file request. |
| Google favicon service (google.com/s2/favicons) | Fetches each crypto sportsbook's logo. | Your IP address, and which operator's logo you loaded. |
| DuckDuckGo icon service (icons.duckduckgo.com) | Fallback logo source if Google's doesn't have one. | Your IP address, and which operator's logo you loaded. |
| ipwho.is (ipwho.is) | On a sportsbook's profile page, looks up your approximate country from your IP so we can show whether that operator is known to accept players from your country. | Your IP address, and the fact that you loaded a sportsbook profile page. |
| flagcdn.com (flagcdn.com) | Loads a small flag icon for the country the acceptance check above detected. | Your IP address, and which country's flag you loaded. |
These are standard, publicly documented services used purely to render the page correctly (the site's font, each operator's logo, and the country-acceptance check on profile pages) — not for tracking by us. What Google, DuckDuckGo, or ipwho.is themselves do with that request is governed by their own privacy policies, not ours. The country-acceptance check is informational only — it's based on our own research into each operator's stated restrictions, which may be incomplete or outdated, and is never a substitute for checking the operator's own terms before depositing.
The small banner shown on this Site is a transparency notice, not a legally-required consent gate — under GDPR/ePrivacy rules, consent is only required before setting non-essential cookies, and this Site sets none (the one cookie it does set is strictly necessary and exempt, see Section 2). Clicking "Got it" saves that choice in your browser's localStorage so it doesn't reappear on later visits.
The first time this Site adds analytics, an ad, or anything that needs a non-essential cookie, this page and the table above get updated with the actual cookie name, purpose, and duration — and the bottom banner becomes a real accept/decline control rather than an acknowledgement.
