Basswin Cookie Policy in the United Kingdom
Basswin uses cookies to enhance user convenience, maintain security, and support optimal site performance. Some cookies are strictly necessary for the platform to operate, whilst others help analyse site usage and personalise content for each visitor. Users visiting the site from the United Kingdom have the right to manage their cookie preferences at any time. This policy explains how cookies are used and what choices are available.
Basswin Cookie Usage
When a user visits the Basswin website, cookies are stored on their device. These small data files help remember individual settings and monitor activity across the platform.
Cookies are used for specific purposes, including:
- Understanding how visitors interact with the site;
- Tracking traffic patterns and volume;
- Evaluating overall site performance and reliability.
Importantly, cookies stored on a device cannot access any internal or personal data saved locally. They do not retrieve files, read private information, or compromise the user's privacy in any way. Their function is limited strictly to improving the browsing experience on the platform.
Types of Cookies Used on the Website
The platform uses three main categories of cookies. Each type serves a distinct purpose in supporting the website’s functionality.
Session Cookies
Session cookies are temporary and are deleted automatically once a browser session ends. They are used to maintain continuity during a single visit, such as keeping a user logged in as they navigate between pages.
Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies remain on a device for a set period after a session ends. They are used to remember preferences and settings across multiple visits, so users do not need to reconfigure their experience each time they return.
Analytical Cookies
Analytical cookies collect data about how the website is used, including which pages are visited most frequently and how long users spend on them. This information is used to improve site structure and overall performance.
All three cookie types work together to make the browsing experience more streamlined and relevant to each individual user.
Your Cookie Choices
Users have full control over how cookies are managed on their device. Browser settings provide a range of options for adjusting cookie preferences at any time.
The following actions can be taken directly through most standard browser settings:
- Viewing cookies currently stored on a device;
- Deleting individual cookies or all cookies at once;
- Blocking third-party cookies from being placed;
- Preventing all cookies from being stored;
- Receiving a notification before a cookie is saved;
- Managing Flash cookies through the relevant browser or plugin controls.
It is important to note that blocking all cookies may limit the functionality of certain features on the site. Some services, such as remembering language preferences or maintaining an active session, depend on cookies to operate correctly.
Flash Cookie Settings
Flash cookies, also known as Local Shared Objects, are managed separately from standard browser cookies. They are controlled through the Adobe Flash Player Settings Manager, which is accessible via the Adobe website.
Within the Flash Player Settings Manager, users can:
- Set storage permissions for Flash content;
- Define storage limits for Flash data on their device;
- Configure privacy and security options for individual websites.
Disabling all cookies, including Flash cookies, may disrupt specific site functions. Features such as language preferences, personalised display settings, and automatic login may not operate as expected if Flash cookies are blocked or removed.
