This site uses cookies – small text files that are placed on your machine to help the site provide a better user experience. In general, cookies are used to retain user preferences, store information for things like shopping carts (we do not have a shop so that does not apply at USAbetting), and provide anonymized tracking data to third party applications like Google Analytics.
As a rule, cookies will make your browsing experience better. However, you may prefer to disable cookies on this site and on others. The most effective way to do this is to disable cookies in your browser. We suggest consulting the help section of your browser or taking a look at the About Cookies website which offers guidance for all modern browsers.
USAbetting does use cookies to aid and inform about the movements of the visitors to this website. Examples of this include learning how long a visitor has been on a page and where they browse to next. We use Google Analytics for this purpose and that does drop cookies.
Certain external links, for example to sportsbooks that may be linked to from this site, do drop cookies. Those cookies are not from USAbetting but rather the website you visit next. Those cookies tell the site you land on where you came from ie: you came from us. There is nothing to worry about in that situation. Obviously the only information they ever gather about you as an individual is if or when you register with them and so you would, in that case, choose to volunteer personal information on their registration form.
Nearly all websites use cookies to some extent or other in order to oil the wheels of your visit and to remember any preferences you may make. At USAbetting we use comparatively few and it really is only for stats purposes.
If you removed cookies from the internet, a lot of things we take for granted when visiting websites, especially online retailers, would stop working properly. USAbetting is not a retailer, but rather an aggregator or portal that reviews mainly USA betting firms, so we use far less cookies than online shops do.
As well as fulfilling our legal obligations with this missive, we hope this has been informative and of some help and reassurance to you. Cookies get a bad press, but we don’t think when used responsibly that they are bad. In fact they help visitors and websites alike.
