Betika Bet Cookie Policy

This Betika Bet Cookie Policy explains how Betika Bet uses cookies and similar technologies on its Ethiopian website, mobile site, and app-related services where applicable. These technologies may support secure login sessions, account protection, fraud and abuse prevention, website performance, analytics, marketing measurement, language and user preferences, and responsible gaming and age-restriction controls.

This policy describes the purposes for which these technologies may be used. Their actual use depends on the service, device, features enabled, and applicable choices. Read it alongside the Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions. Availability of services is subject to eligibility requirements, applicable Ethiopian laws and regulations, and the operator’s terms.

What Are Cookies?

A cookie is a small file stored by your browser that helps a website remember information about a visitor or device. Similar browser storage items can serve the same purpose. For example, a cookie can help the website recognize your signed-in session when you move between pages, rather than asking you to log in again each time.

Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, local storage, software development kits (SDKs), and device identifiers, if used. Pixels and tags can record events such as a page visit; local storage can retain settings; app SDKs and identifiers can support mobile functionality or measurement. References to “cookies” in this policy include these technologies where relevant, although their controls may differ.

Why Betika Bet Uses Cookies

Some cookies are necessary for the platform to work. Others support optional functions and may depend on consent or available privacy settings. Their purposes may include:

• Keeping users signed in and maintaining session continuity.
• Protecting accounts from suspicious activity and automated abuse.
• Remembering cookie choices, language, and other preferences.
• Improving loading speed, navigation, and mobile usability.
• Understanding which pages are useful and identifying errors.
• Measuring campaigns without including sensitive account or payment details in advertising reports.
• Supporting applicable security, legal, age-restriction, and responsible gaming obligations.

Cookies do not replace identity verification, customer due diligence, or server-side account controls. Accepting optional cookies should not be treated as a substitute for meeting eligibility or KYC requirements.

Types of Cookies We May Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies support basic website functions, such as registration, login, secure account access, payment-flow protection, age-gate checks, session continuity, fraud prevention, and storage of cookie choices. They are generally not controlled by an optional-cookie consent switch, although browsers may allow users to block them.

In a typical user journey, session cookies help maintain continuity between Betika Bet registration, Betika Bet login, and account pages. Blocking them may interrupt those processes. Age-gate storage may remember a response, but it does not establish legal eligibility or replace the checks described in the Age Restriction Policy.

Security and Fraud Prevention Cookies

Security cookies and related identifiers may help identify suspicious patterns, reduce automated abuse, protect account access, and maintain the integrity of betting, keno, live betting, and gaming areas. This policy does not disclose detection rules that could help someone evade security checks.

Whether a security technology is necessary depends on its actual purpose; a security label should not be used to justify unrelated advertising tracking. Cookies may also support responsible gaming controls, but deleting them does not cancel account-level deposit limits or self-exclusion. See Responsible Gaming for the applicable measures.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

Betika Bet analytics cookies may help measure page usage, loading issues, device types, navigation paths, and content quality. For example, analysis may show whether mobile users encounter errors between an account page and a payment screen. Its purpose is service improvement, not public disclosure of private betting activity.

Analytics information may be aggregated or pseudonymized where applicable. Pseudonymized information can still be personal data; it should not automatically be described as anonymous. Optional analytics should follow the consent settings and data-handling arrangements confirmed by the operator.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies may remember language, region, odds format, device preferences, or a login preference. Cookie-choice storage may instead be classified as strictly necessary because it records and applies your privacy decisions. Declining optional functional cookies may mean selecting preferences again.

Controls can differ between a browser and the Betika Bet app. An app may use device storage or SDKs rather than browser cookies, and browser settings may not control those technologies. Use an operator-verified download channel; do not assume an APK is genuine because its name or appearance matches the brand.

Marketing and Advertising Cookies

Betika Bet marketing cookies may measure campaign results, identify referral sources, limit repeated advertisements, and help display more relevant communications. They do not guarantee an offer, bonus, or winning outcome. Any offer remains subject to its disclosed eligibility requirements and terms.

Where supported, users can reject or withdraw consent for optional marketing cookies through cookie settings, browser controls, or third-party advertising settings. Rejecting marketing cookies may not remove all advertising; advertisements may simply be less personalized.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set by Betika Bet on its own website. Third-party cookies may be set by service providers involved in analytics, security, payment verification, advertising, hosting, fraud prevention, or support tools. The provider’s role and access to information depend on the actual integration.

A third-party tool may process an online identifier or interaction information under its own privacy terms. Where optional tracking requires consent, it should follow the user’s choice rather than being enabled solely because a provider is integrated.

Cookie inventory: [Insert the operator-confirmed cookie or technology names, categories, purposes, example uses, durations, required or optional status, and providers.] Provider names and retention periods are not specified here because they require verification. The inventory may be updated as integrations change; category descriptions alone are not a complete technical inventory.

How Long Cookies Stay on Your Device

Session cookies usually expire when the browser closes or the session ends. Some browsers restore sessions, so closing a window may not remove every stored item.

Persistent cookies remain for a defined period unless deleted earlier. They may remember preferences or support measurement across visits. Actual expiry periods must be stated in the verified inventory or preference center; no universal duration applies to every category.

Deleting a cookie does not necessarily delete information already held by the operator or a provider. Device-storage duration and server-side record retention are separate matters.

How Users Can Manage Cookies

1. Step 1: Open the website’s cookie banner or preference center, if available. Review categories and accept or reject optional analytics, functional, or marketing cookies where supported.
2. Step 2: Check your browser’s privacy settings. You can usually block selected cookies, restrict third-party cookies, or clear browsing data. Options vary by browser.
3. Step 3: Review device and app privacy settings separately, then revisit the website to confirm your choices. If controls are unclear, contact support through the operator’s official communication channel.

Preference-center controls generally offer category-level choices; browser blocking is broader and may disrupt essential functions. Clearing data removes existing storage but may also erase your saved cookie choice. Settings may need to be repeated on each browser or device.

Disabling necessary cookies may affect login, account security, payment authorization, or betting and gaming features. Before changing settings during a deposit or withdrawal, check the transaction status and retain its reference rather than repeating the request. Fees, limits, verification requirements, and processing times are governed by the Terms and Conditions, not by cookie acceptance.

Cookies and Personal Data

Some cookies involve personal data, including online identifiers, device information, or records linked to an account. Such information may require appropriate access controls and secure handling; cookies do not provide an absolute security guarantee.

The Privacy Policy explains data collection, storage, processing purposes, recipients, applicable user rights, and contact options. Cookie disclosures must match the operator’s actual practices and applicable Ethiopian data protection and privacy requirements. Withdrawing optional-cookie consent does not automatically delete account or transaction records that may be retained on another applicable basis.

Updates to This Cookie Policy

Betika Bet may update this policy when technologies, providers, legal requirements, or website features change. The revision date should identify the latest version. Where required, material changes should be communicated and updated consent obtained before new optional tracking is used.
