Cookie Policy – DesiBet
Effective Date: 25 September 2025
Contact: support@desibet.ng

This Cookie Policy explains how DesiBet (“we,” “us,” “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and apps. It complements our Privacy Policy and is designed to meet the requirements of the GDPR, NDPR, and applicable e-privacy rules.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small files placed on your device that enable core functionality, security, and performance measurement. Related technologies include local storage and pixels.

How we use cookies

• Strictly Necessary – Run the site (authentication, session management, fraud prevention, bet slip, payments).

• Performance & Analytics – Understand usage (aggregate metrics like page loads, feature reliability, error diagnostics).

• Functional – Remember your settings (e.g., language, preferred leagues).

• Advertising/Marketing – Not used by DesiBet at this time.

Legal bases

• Strictly Necessary: our legitimate interests in providing a secure, functioning service.

• All other categories: your consent, which you can give, refuse, or withdraw at any time via Cookie Settings.

Your choices

You can:

1. Use the Cookie banner to accept or reject non-essential cookies.

2. Open Cookie Settings at any time (usually in the footer) to adjust preferences or withdraw consent.

3. Control cookies via your browser settings (blocking or deleting). Blocking strictly necessary cookies may break site functionality.

Retention

• Session cookies: deleted when you close your browser.

• Persistent cookies: kept only as long as necessary for their purpose (typically 1–13 months for analytics; shorter where feasible).

Third-party cookies / processors

We may use reputable service providers (e.g., error monitoring, performance analytics). These parties act as processors and are bound by data-protection agreements. We do not use third-party advertising networks.

International transfers

If a provider stores data outside Nigeria, transfers will follow applicable safeguards under GDPR/NDPR (e.g., contractual clauses). See our Privacy Policy for details.

Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect technical or legal changes. The “Effective Date” shows the latest version.
