Cookie Policy

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your browser or device when you visit a website. Cookies allow the site to recognise your device and remember your actions and preferences, such as interface language, font size, or login details, so that you do not have to re-enter this information on future visits. Cookies fall into two main categories based on how long they remain on your device:

• Session cookies. These are temporary files that are deleted automatically when you close your browser. They help the site function during a single browsing session, for example by keeping you logged in as you move between pages;
• Persistent cookies. These remain stored on your device for a set period of time, or until you delete them manually. Persistent cookies allow the site to remember your preferences and settings the next time you visit, so your experience picks up where you left off.

Cookies are also divided by origin:

• First-party cookies. Set directly by the Melbet website. These are used to operate the site, store your preferences, and provide core functionality such as account access and navigation;
• Third-party cookies. Set by external services integrated into our site, such as analytics platforms, advertising networks, or payment processors. These cookies may track your activity across multiple websites. Melbet does not control the data collected by third-party cookies.

We use cookies for various purposes to keep our site running properly, improve your experience, and maintain the quality of our services. Below are the main reasons cookies are used on the Melbet:

• Site functionality. Cookies are necessary for the technical functionality of the website and provide access to core features such as logging in, placing bets, and processing payments. Without these cookies, the site cannot operate correctly;
• Remembering preferences. Cookies store your settings and preferences, including your chosen language, display format, odds format, and other personalisation options. This means you do not have to set them again each time you return;
• Analytics and performance. Cookies collect anonymised data about how visitors use the site, including which pages are viewed most often and where errors occur. This information helps us understand traffic patterns and improve the site. We may use third-party tools such as Google Analytics for this purpose;
• Content personalisation. Cookies help us deliver relevant content, offers, and promotions based on your browsing behaviour and preferences. For example, if you frequently visit cricket betting pages, the site may highlight relevant matches or bonuses;
• Advertising. Cookies are used to measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns and to display advertisements that are more relevant to your interests. Advertising cookies may be set by third-party partners;
• Security and fraud prevention. Cookies play an important role in protecting your account from unauthorized access. They help us detect suspicious login attempts, verify your identity during sessions, and prevent fraudulent activity on the platform.

The following types of cookies are used on the Melbet website:

• Strictly necessary cookies. These provide the basic operation of the website. They enable core functions such as page navigation, account access, and payment processing. Without them, the site will not function correctly. These cookies cannot be disabled;
• Functional cookies. These allow the site to remember your settings and provide a personalised browsing experience. For example, they store your preferred language, odds format, and display layout. Disabling functional cookies will not prevent you from using the site, but it may reduce the quality of your experience;
• Analytical cookies. These collect anonymised data about visits, page views, and user actions. The information is used to analyse site performance, identify areas for improvement, and understand how users interact with different features. Analytical cookies do not collect data that can identify you personally;
• Advertising and targeting cookies. These are used to deliver relevant advertisements and promotional content. They track your browsing behaviour across sessions and may be set by third-party advertising partners. These cookies also help us measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.

The retention period depends on the type and purpose of each cookie. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies may last from a few days to up to two years, unless you choose to delete them sooner through your browser settings. Third-party cookies may have their own retention periods determined by the service providers that set them.

You have full control over how cookies are used on your device. There are several ways to manage your cookie preferences:

• Cookie consent banner. When you first visit the Melbet website, a pop-up window will appear asking you to accept or reject certain types of cookies. You can accept all, reject non-essential cookies, or customize your preferences by category;
• Browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to control cookie behaviour directly. You can choose to accept all cookies, block specific types, or delete cookies that have already been stored. Instructions are usually available in the browser’s help or settings menu;
• Site settings. You can update your cookie preferences at any time through the cookie settings section on the Melbet website, or by contacting our support team for assistance.

Please be aware that disabling or rejecting certain cookies may affect how the site works. If you block strictly necessary cookies, you may not be able to log in, place bets, or process transactions. Disabling analytical or advertising cookies will not affect core functionality but may result in a less personalised experience.

The data collected through cookies is not used to identify you personally unless you have provided that information through other means, such as account registration. Cookie data will not be transferred to third parties without your consent, except where required by law or for third-party analytics and advertising services that operate on our behalf. Melbet takes all reasonable measures to protect cookie data from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. We comply with applicable data protection legislation, including the GDPR.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. The current version is always available on the Melbet website. We recommend reviewing this page periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
