1. What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file stored in your browser by a website you visit. It lets the site remember small facts between page loads or return visits — whether you have accepted the cookie banner, for instance, or which market page you last looked at. Cookies are not executable code and they cannot carry malware. We use the word "cookies" throughout this page to also cover closely related technologies such as browser local storage and tracking pixels.
2. The cookies casinoclaude.ink sets
The table below lists every cookie you may pick up while browsing CasinoClaude.ink, grouped by category. Essential session cookies always load because the site cannot function without them. Analytics cookies only load after you have accepted them on the banner.
| Category | Cookie name(s) | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential session | cc_session |
Anonymous session identifier used for basic security and rate-limiting. | Session only (deleted when the browser closes) |
| Essential session | cc_consent |
Stores your cookie-banner choice so the banner does not reappear on every page. | 12 months |
| Analytics | _ga, _ga_* |
Google Analytics — aggregated, IP-anonymised traffic measurement. | 13 months |
| Analytics | _clck, _clsk |
Microsoft Clarity — aggregated heatmaps and scroll behaviour, no personal identifiers. | 12 months (_clck) / session (_clsk) |
| Analytics | _pk_id, _pk_ses |
Matomo — visitor and session counters, IP anonymisation on. | 13 months / 30 minutes |
That is the full list. We do not set advertising cookies, we do not run remarketing pixels, and we do not sell or share cookie-derived data with any third party for marketing purposes.
3. How to disable cookies at browser level
The consent banner is the fastest way to switch off analytics on CasinoClaude.ink — just decline it and the analytics cookies will not fire. If you would rather manage cookies globally across every site you visit, every mainstream browser gives you the controls to review, block or delete them:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. You can block third-party cookies, block everything, or clear existing cookies for individual sites.
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. "Strict" mode blocks cross-site tracking cookies by default.
- Safari (macOS): Settings → Privacy → block all cookies, or Manage Website Data to remove individual entries. On iOS: Settings → Safari → Advanced → Website Data.
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data.
- Private / incognito windows: cookies set in a private window are cleared automatically as soon as the window closes.
Blocking essential cookies will stop parts of the site working correctly — the consent banner itself, in particular, will not remember your choice. Blocking analytics cookies has no effect on the content or reviews and will not lock you out of anything.
4. Third-party cookies you may pick up
Some cookies you may encounter while browsing CasinoClaude.ink are set by third parties rather than by us. The most common case is affiliate attribution: when you click an outbound link to a casino, the destination operator or its affiliate network may set a cookie so that any subsequent sign-up is credited to CasinoClaude.ink. That is how our referral fees are calculated. It costs you nothing on top of your normal spend and it never influences our scoring. Once you land on the operator's site, its own cookie policy takes over. Affiliate cookies of this kind typically last between 30 and 90 days.

When the tooling on the site changes or the regulatory landscape shifts, we update this page and move the last-updated date at the top. The version currently live is dated 31 July 2026.
