Cookie policy of the 1win information portal

Cookies placed through this website relate exclusively to the operation of the portal itself. The policy takes effect from the moment of its publication on the site and applies to every visitor regardless of location or device. 

What cookies are and why we use them 

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser when you open a page. They contain limited technical information, such as a session identifier, language preference, or an anonymized visitor tag, and they cannot run programs or deliver viruses to your device. 

We use cookies for three practical reasons: to keep the portal stable and secure, to remember choices you make between visits, and to measure how readers interact with published content. Aggregated statistics show which reviews attract attention, where navigation fails, and which pages load slowly, so the editorial team can improve structure and performance. 

Types of cookies used on this website 

Every cookie on the portal falls into one of four categories: 

• necessary cookies, which support page loading, security checks, and basic navigation; the site cannot function without them; 
• functional cookies, which remember interface preferences such as language or display mode; 
• analytics cookies, which collect anonymized data about visits, session length, and traffic sources; 
• advertising cookies, which are set by third-party networks to limit ad repetition and measure campaign reach. 

Necessary cookies are always active because the website cannot operate without them. Functional, analytics, and advertising cookies remain optional, and you decide whether they are stored on your device. 

How long cookies stay on your device 

Storage periods depend on the category and purpose of each file. Session cookies exist only while your browser stays open and are deleted automatically when you close it. They handle short-term tasks such as keeping a page state during navigation. 

Persistent cookies remain after the session ends. On this portal, functional cookies are stored for up to 12 months, analytics identifiers for up to 24 months, and advertising cookies typically expire within 13 months, in line with common industry limits. You can remove any of these files manually at any moment through your browser, without waiting for automatic expiration. 

Third-party cookies and your consent 

Some cookies are set by external services rather than by the portal itself. Analytics providers help us understand aggregated traffic patterns, while advertising networks control the frequency and relevance of banners displayed on the site. Each of these companies processes data under its own privacy policy and bears responsibility for its own tools. 

When you open the portal for the first time, a consent notice lets you accept or decline optional categories. Only necessary cookies work before a choice is made. You may withdraw or change your consent at any time, and the site will stop setting the declined categories from that point forward. 

Managing and disabling cookies in your browser 

All major browsers allow you to review, block, or delete cookies. In Chrome, open Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies. In Firefox, use Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Cookies and Site Data. In Safari, go to Preferences, then Privacy. In Edge, open Settings, then Cookies and site permissions. 

Each browser also offers a full cleanup of stored files and a block on future ones. Keep in mind that disabling necessary cookies may break navigation, form handling, or page display on this portal and on most other websites you visit. 

Policy updates and contact details 

This policy may be revised when legislation, technology, or the structure of the portal changes. Every new version is published on this page and applies from the date it appears. We recommend checking the document periodically. 

Questions about cookies, consent, or data handling on the portal can be sent to [email protected]. Requests are reviewed in the order they arrive, and each one receives an individual reply.
