This page explains how Sports Lounge may use cookies and similar technologies on sports-lounge.co.uk. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on or read from your device. Related technologies such as local storage and advertising identifiers can serve similar purposes. Some are set by Sports Lounge and others by services integrated into the website.

Types of cookies

  • Strictly necessary: Used for core functions such as security, session handling, consent preferences and accessibility. These may not require consent where legally exempt.
  • Preferences and functionality: May remember optional site or account settings.
  • Analytics: May help us understand visits, performance and how readers use our website, including through Google Analytics where configured.
  • Advertising and marketing: Google AdSense and related services may use identifiers to serve, limit, measure or personalise adverts, subject to your permissions and applicable law.
  • Embedded content: Videos, social-media players or third-party embeds may set their own cookies when enabled.

Third-party providers

Depending on the page and tools enabled, services may include Google (AdSense, Analytics and Site Kit), video or social-media platforms, mailing-list providers and WordPress plugins. The exact cookie names, durations and providers depend on active site features and should be shown by the site’s consent-management tool or provider notices.

Your choices

Where required, optional tracking and advertising technologies should not be activated before consent. You can accept or reject non-essential categories and change your preferences through the site’s cookie banner or preferences controls, if displayed. You can also block or erase cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect features that rely on them.

Advertising settings

You can also learn about Google’s advertising data practices and manage Google ad personalisation through My Ad Center. These controls do not necessarily replace consent choices for this website.

Contact and changes
