This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how Oke Gaming uses them, and the choices you have regarding their use. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
01 What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, or smartphone when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.
Cookies are not programs — they cannot carry viruses or install software on your device. They simply store small pieces of information that can be read by the website that placed them. Cookies can be either "session cookies" (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device for a set period or until you manually delete them).
Similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage may function in analogous ways and are also covered by this policy.
02 How We Use Cookies
Oke Gaming uses cookies for several purposes that help us deliver a better experience to you:
- Essential functionality: Some cookies are necessary for the Platform to operate correctly, such as maintaining your session or remembering your cookie consent preference.
- Performance and analytics: We use anonymised analytics data to understand how visitors interact with our content — which articles are popular, how long people spend on pages, and where navigation can be improved.
- Preference storage: Cookies help remember your choices (such as cookie consent) so you are not asked repeatedly.
- Functionality improvements: We may use cookies to deliver a more personalised experience over time, such as remembering which quiz you completed.
We do not use cookies to personally identify you without your consent, and we do not sell cookie data to third parties.

04 Third-Party Cookies
Some pages on our Platform embed content or tools from third-party services. These services may set their own cookies, which are governed by the respective providers' privacy and cookie policies:
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand site performance using anonymised, aggregated data. Google's use of this data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
- Google Maps: Our Contact page embeds a Google Maps widget which may set cookies related to map functionality. See Google's privacy policy for details.
- Font providers: We load fonts from Google Fonts. Google may log the request but does not set persistent cookies for font delivery.
- CDN services: We use content delivery networks (such as jsDelivr and Cloudflare CDN) to load libraries like Bootstrap and Font Awesome. These do not set tracking cookies.
We are not responsible for the cookies set by third-party services, and we encourage you to review their respective privacy policies.
05 Managing and Disabling Cookies
You have the right to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can manage cookies in several ways:
Through Our Cookie Banner
When you first visit Oke Gaming, you will see our cookie consent banner. You can choose to accept or decline cookies at that point. If you decline, only essential cookies will be used.
Through Your Browser
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. Here's how to access cookie settings in major browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform. Disabling analytics cookies will not prevent you from using the site but will limit our ability to understand how people use our content.
Opt-Out Tools
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
06 Your Consent
Under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), we are required to obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.
When you visit Oke Gaming for the first time, our cookie consent banner will appear. Your consent choice is stored locally in your browser via localStorage under the key ce_cookie_consent. This storage is not a cookie itself — it is a browser-side preference file that expires naturally or when you clear your browser data.
You can withdraw your consent at any time by clearing your browser's local storage and cookies for our domain, then revisiting the site. The banner will reappear and you can make a new choice.
07 Policy Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, legal requirements, or our practices. When we make significant changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
If we introduce new categories of cookies that require fresh consent, we will present the consent banner again to give you the opportunity to review and accept or decline the updated preferences.
