Cookie Policy

1.1 This Cookie Policy explains how BuyTheWin, operated by the legal entity identified on the Platform, in checkout, or in the legal notices section as the operator of BuyTheWin for the relevant service, region, or payment flow ("BuyTheWin", "we", "us", or "our"), uses cookies and similar technologies on https://buythewin.com and on related account, checkout, order, chat, and support pages (collectively, the "Platform").

1.2 This Cookie Policy should be read together with the Privacy Policy and the General Terms and Conditions. If information collected through cookies can be linked to you, your Account, or your Order, we treat that information as personal data under the Privacy Policy.

1.3 Where this Policy and the Privacy Policy both address cookies or similar technologies, they apply together. This Policy focuses on storage and access technologies and the controls available to you.

2.1 Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites recognize your browser or device and remember certain information about your session, settings, or interactions.

2.2 We may also use similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, tags, scripts, software development kits, and web beacons. In this Cookie Policy, we use the term "cookies" to refer to cookies and similar technologies unless the context requires otherwise.

2.3 Cookies may be first-party cookies, which are set by BuyTheWin, or third-party cookies, which are set by service providers or partners on our behalf or through our Platform. Cookies may also be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device until they expire or are deleted.

3.1 We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Platform secure and functioning properly; enable sign-in, session continuity, cart, checkout, and order-related features; remember your language, currency, and other preferences; support communication, support, and order-related chat features; understand how visitors use the Platform and improve performance, usability, and content; detect errors, prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access; and measure marketing performance and, where enabled, personalize promotional activity.

4.1 Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are essential for the operation, security, and core functionality of the Platform. They may be used for account authentication, session management, cart and checkout integrity, fraud prevention, security controls, infrastructure stability, and saving your cookie choices. Without these technologies, some parts of the Platform may not function properly.

4.2 Functionality cookies. These cookies remember choices you make and help us provide enhanced features and a more personalized experience. For example, they may store your language, currency, region, interface settings, and other convenience preferences.

4.3 Analytics cookies. These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Platform, such as pages visited, navigation paths, device and browser information, feature usage, and technical issues. We use this information to measure performance, troubleshoot problems, and improve the Platform.

4.4 Marketing cookies. These cookies help us measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, understand referral sources, attribute conversions, limit repetitive advertising, and, where enabled, show more relevant promotional content.

5.1 Strictly necessary cookies may be used without consent where they are required to provide the service you request or to maintain the security and integrity of the Platform.

5.2 Where applicable law requires consent, we request your consent before placing or reading non-essential cookies, including analytics, functionality, or marketing cookies that are not strictly necessary.

5.3 Where consent is required, non-essential cookies should not be placed before you make your choice, and you should be able to reject non-essential cookies as easily as you can accept them using the controls made available on the Platform.

5.4 You can change or withdraw your choices at any time using the cookie banner, the "Manage Cookies" link, or other cookie settings tools made available on the Platform. Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing that occurred lawfully before withdrawal.

6.1 Depending on the cookie and its purpose, cookies and similar technologies may collect information such as cookie identifiers and session identifiers; IP address and general device or browser information; pages viewed, clicks, timestamps, and navigation behavior; referral sources and campaign attribution data; cart, checkout, or order-session status; and your cookie consent preferences.

7.1 Some cookies are placed directly by BuyTheWin. Others may be placed by selected third parties that help us operate, secure, analyze, support, or market the Platform.

7.2 These third parties may include providers involved in hosting and infrastructure, payment or fraud-prevention services, analytics and performance measurement, customer support, messaging or chat tools, and advertising, attribution, or remarketing services.

7.3 The specific third-party providers and technologies we use may change from time to time as the Platform evolves. We therefore keep this Policy under review and, where appropriate, make the most current information available through our cookie settings interface and/or an updated cookie register.

8.1 The most current list of specific cookies and similar technologies we use, including their names or identifiers, providers, categories, purposes, and durations, is made available through our cookie settings or consent-management interface on the Platform where that interface is implemented.

8.2 The table below provides the category-level register for the technologies currently used or expected to be used across the Platform. Where a more granular list is available in the cookie settings interface, that interface forms part of this Policy and should be treated as the more specific source.

9.1 You can manage your cookie preferences through the cookie banner, the "Manage Cookies" link, or other settings tools made available on the Platform.

9.2 You can also control cookies through your browser or device settings. Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or limit cookies. However, if you block all cookies, some parts of the Platform may not work properly, including sign-in, cart, checkout, chat, order tracking, or saved preferences.

9.3 Your choices are generally browser- and device-specific. If you change browsers, use a new device, clear your cookies, or use private browsing mode, you may need to set your preferences again.

10.1 Some cookies are session cookies and are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Other cookies are persistent and remain on your device for a longer period until they expire or are deleted. We aim to keep cookie lifetimes proportionate to their purpose.

10.2 Some service providers we use may process data in countries outside your place of residence. Where required by applicable law, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for such processing and transfers.

10.3 We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, technology, our services, or the cookies and similar technologies we use. When we do, we will post the updated version on this page and revise the 'Last updated' date. Where required, we will provide additional notice or ask for renewed consent.

11.1 If you have questions about this Cookie Policy or our use of cookies and similar technologies, please contact the relevant BuyTheWin operator through support@buythewin.com, through any dedicated privacy contact published on the Platform, or through the legal notices/contact details published for the relevant operator.
