Cookies explained in plain terms
This policy covers how beadsneeds.co.uk uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. Superspin is the casino brand we review here; this page describes what our own portal sets when you visit, not what the operator itself does on its platform.
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website. It helps the site recognise you on return visits, remember preferences and measure how pages are used. Cookies do not run programmes, deliver viruses or access files on your computer.
What is stored and for how long
We use cookies in three categories, and the table below shows what each one does.
| Category | Purpose | Duration | Consent required |
|---|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Session management, security, consent preferences | Session to 1 year | No – essential for the site to work |
| Analytics | Visitor counts, page views, traffic sources | Up to 2 years | Yes |
| Marketing | Affiliate tracking, ad performance | Up to 90 days | Yes |
Necessary cookies keep the site secure and remember whether you have accepted our cookie banner. Without them, parts of the portal will not function. These are set automatically and do not require your consent under UK law.
Analytics cookies tell us which pages are read most often and how long visitors stay. We use this data to improve navigation and content. You can decline these without affecting your ability to browse the site.
Marketing cookies track whether you arrived through an affiliate link and help us measure which reviews lead to sign-ups. Declining them means we cannot attribute conversions, but it does not stop you accessing any content.
Embedded third parties
Some pages on beadsneeds.co.uk embed content from external providers – video players, social-media widgets, analytics platforms. Those third parties may set their own cookies when their content loads, governed by their own policies rather than ours.
Common third-party services on this portal include Google Analytics for traffic measurement and affiliate-network tracking scripts. We do not control what those providers store or how long they retain it. You can review their policies directly:
- Google Analytics – policies.google.com/privacy
- Any affiliate network named in our terms of use
Blocking third-party cookies in your browser settings will prevent most of these from being set, though it may also disable embedded videos or social-sharing buttons.
Declining without breaking the site
You have full control over which cookies you accept. When you first visit beadsneeds.co.uk, a banner asks for your consent to analytics and marketing cookies. Necessary cookies are enabled by default because the site cannot function without them.
If you decline optional cookies, you can still read every review, access every page and follow every link. The only difference is that we will not know which articles were most useful, and affiliate networks will not be able to track referrals from this portal.
Your choice is stored in a necessary cookie so we do not ask again on every visit. You can change your mind at any time by clearing your browser's cookies or adjusting the settings below.
Managing cookies in your browser
Every modern browser lets you block or delete cookies. The steps vary slightly, but the principle is the same across all of them. Here is where to find the controls in the four most common browsers:
- Chrome – Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox – Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari – Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge – Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies
Blocking all cookies will log you out of most websites and may prevent some features from working. A more targeted approach is to allow first-party cookies (set by the site you are visiting) and block third-party ones (set by external services embedded in that site).
Updates to this policy
We review this cookie policy periodically and update it when we add new tracking tools or change how the portal operates. The date at the bottom of this page shows when it was last revised.
Significant changes – such as introducing a new category of cookie or a new third-party provider – will be announced through a revised consent banner when you next visit. Minor clarifications take effect immediately without a new prompt.
Questions about cookies on this site
If anything on this page is unclear, or if you need help adjusting your cookie preferences, write to the beadsneeds.co.uk editorial team at [email protected]. We aim to respond within 48 hours.
For questions about cookies set by the operator's own platform once you register or log in there, contact the operator's support team directly through the channels listed on its site. We have no access to those systems and cannot change settings on your behalf.
