Cookie Policy
Affiliate disclosure: we are an independent review site, not the casino operator. We may earn a commission if you join through our links, which never affects our editorial verdict.
This Cookie Policy explains how yukongoldcasino-canada.com uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our independent Yukon Gold Casino review. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy and tells you what cookies do, which categories we set, why our affiliate cookies exist, and how you stay in control of them. We are a review site, not the casino, so the cookies here are about running the site and crediting referrals — not about your gambling account.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your device when you visit. On your next visit, the site can read that file to remember things — such as a preference you set, or the fact that you have already dismissed a banner. Cookies cannot run programs or carry viruses; they simply hold small pieces of information. Similar technologies, like local storage and tracking pixels, do comparable jobs and are covered by this policy too. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by us) or "third-party" (set by another service we use, such as analytics).
Types of cookies we use
We keep our use of cookies deliberately limited. They fall into three groups:
- Essential cookies — required for the site to work and to remember basic choices such as your cookie-consent decision. These cannot be switched off without breaking core functionality.
- Analytics cookies — help us understand, in aggregate, how visitors use the site so we can improve our reviews and guides. They tell us which pages are popular, not who you are.
- Affiliate / referral tracking cookies — record that you arrived at the casino from our site so the operator can credit a sign-up to us. These are how we earn the commission that keeps the site free.
| Category | Purpose | Set by | Typical lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | Remembers your consent choice and keeps the site working | First-party | Session – 12 months |
| Analytics | Aggregate, anonymous visitor statistics | Third-party (analytics provider) | Up to 24 months |
| Affiliate / referral | Attributes a casino sign-up to our site for commission | Third-party (affiliate network) | Days – several weeks |
Why affiliate cookies matter
When you click one of our links to Yukon Gold Casino, an affiliate cookie may be set so the operator's network can tell that the referral came from us. If you then register, that cookie lets the network attribute your sign-up correctly and pay us a commission — at no extra cost to you. Without it, we would not be credited and could not fund our research. The cookie records the referral, not your gambling activity or identity, and it expires after a set window. Declining it does not stop you from using the casino; it simply means we may not be credited for the referral.
Managing or disabling cookies
You are always in control. Most browsers let you view, block or delete cookies through their settings, and you can set the browser to warn you before a cookie is stored or to refuse third-party cookies entirely. Here is where to look:
- Google Chrome — Settings › Privacy and security › Cookies and other site data.
- Mozilla Firefox — Settings › Privacy & Security › Cookies and Site Data.
- Safari — Settings › Privacy › Manage Website Data.
- Microsoft Edge — Settings › Cookies and site permissions.
You can also browse in your browser's private/incognito mode to limit cookie storage. Note that blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the site from working as intended, and clearing cookies will reset preferences such as your consent choice.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third parties whose services we rely on — chiefly our analytics provider and the affiliate networks that track referrals. We do not control these cookies, and they are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of those providers. Standard embeds such as web fonts may also cause your browser to contact a third-party server. We keep the number of third parties to the minimum needed to run the site.
Consent
Where required, we ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies, typically through a banner on your first visit. You can accept or decline, and you can change your mind at any time by adjusting your browser settings or clearing your cookies to be asked again. Essential cookies do not require consent because the site cannot function without them. For more detail on how the data behind these cookies is handled, see the privacy policy.
Updates to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our tools or legal obligations change. When we do, we will revise the date below. To read what these cookies actually support — our hands-on testing and verdict — head back to the Yukon Gold homepage review.
