Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Soccer Orator uses cookies and similar technologies on https://soccerorator.com. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device (computer, tablet, phone) by a website you visit. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, work more efficiently, and provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called third-party cookies — for example, those set by Google Analytics or by an embedded social media widget.

Categories of cookies we use

1. Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the Site to function. They include:

  • Session cookies (to keep you logged in if you have an account).
  • Cookie consent preference cookies (to remember your choices about cookies).
  • Security cookies that protect against attacks.

You cannot opt out of these cookies because the Site cannot function without them.

2. Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics 4 (and may use Google Search Console measurement) to understand how visitors interact with the Site. This data is aggregated and helps us improve content and structure.

  • Provider: Google
  • Purpose: Site usage measurement
  • Retention: Up to 26 months

3. Functionality cookies

These cookies remember choices you make (such as preferred language or region) to provide a more personalised experience.

4. Advertising and affiliate cookies

If you click an affiliate link to a bookmaker, the bookmaker may set tracking cookies to attribute your registration or first deposit to Soccer Orator. These cookies are set by the partner, not by us. Their use is governed by the partner’s privacy and cookie policies.

We may also use cookies from advertising networks (such as Google AdSense) if we display ads.

5. Embedded social media cookies

Pages that include embedded social media content (e.g., Twitter/X, YouTube) or share buttons may set cookies from those platforms when you interact with them.

How to manage cookies

When you first visit the Site, you will see a cookie consent banner. You can:

  • Accept all cookies.
  • Reject non-essential cookies.
  • Set granular preferences by category.

You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie settings” link in the footer.

You can also control cookies directly in your browser:

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
  • Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

For information about cookies and how to disable them, you may also visit allaboutcookies.org.

Do Not Track

Some browsers support a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature. We do not currently respond to DNT signals because there is no consistent industry standard. You can use the cookie controls described above to limit tracking.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
