1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the owners of the website. Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information, though they can be used in combination with other data to identify a user.
2. Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the basic functionality of our website. They enable core features such as age verification confirmation and cookie consent preferences. Without these cookies, certain functions of the website cannot be provided. Essential cookies do not require your consent under UK law, as they are strictly necessary for the service you have requested.
- ageVerified — Stores whether you have confirmed you are 18+. Stored in localStorage. No expiration (persistent until cleared).

Analytics Cookies
We may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies collect information in an aggregated, anonymous form, including the number of visitors, the pages they visit, and the sources from which they arrived. This data helps us improve the structure and content of our website. Analytics cookies are only set if you have consented to their use.
Marketing Cookies
Payvat does not directly set marketing cookies. However, when you click on an affiliate link and are redirected to a third-party operator's website, that operator's platform may place its own tracking cookies. These cookies are governed by the operator's own cookie and privacy policies. Payvat does not control or have access to these third-party cookies.
3. How to Manage Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways:
- Browser Settings: Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically find these under "Privacy" or "Security" options. You can choose to block all cookies, accept all cookies, or be notified when a cookie is set.
- Clearing Cookies: You can delete cookies that have already been stored on your device through your browser settings.
- Opt-Out Tools: For analytics cookies, you may use browser add-ons such as the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of this website. For example, your age verification and cookie consent preferences will be reset.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Our website may load resources from third-party services (e.g., Google Fonts for typography). These services may set their own cookies according to their own policies. Additionally, clicking affiliate links will take you to external websites that use their own cookies. We recommend reviewing the cookie policies of any third-party website you visit.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our business operations. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
