Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2 June 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which types Goldenexa uses on goldenexa.com, why we use them, and how you can control your preferences. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to site owners. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags. References to “cookies” in this policy include these related technologies where applicable.
Cookies may be “first-party” (set by goldenexa.com) or “third-party” (set by external services we use, such as analytics providers). They may also be “session” cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (remain until they expire or you delete them).
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We categorise cookies as follows:
- Strictly necessary cookies: Essential for the website to function. They enable core features such as age verification memory (session), cookie consent storage, security, and load balancing. These cannot be switched off in our systems without affecting site functionality.
- Functional cookies: Remember choices you make (such as language or region preferences) to provide enhanced, personalised features. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we embed.
- Analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors interact with goldenexa.com by collecting anonymous or aggregated information about page views, traffic sources, and user journeys. This helps us improve content and performance.
- Marketing cookies (if used): May be used to deliver relevant promotional content and measure campaign effectiveness. We only deploy marketing cookies where you have given appropriate consent under UK law.
Specific examples on our site include:
-
cookie_consent— stores your cookie banner choice (accepted/declined) and timestamp in local storage; -
age_verified— session storage indicating you confirmed you are 18 or older; - Analytics identifiers from approved providers, where consent is given.
3. How to Manage Cookie Settings
When you first visit goldenexa.com, a cookie banner allows you to
accept or close the notice. Your choice is saved in local storage
under the key cookie_consent so the banner is not shown
again until you clear your browser data.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies. Instructions are usually found under “Privacy”, “Security”, or “Settings”. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site from working correctly, including age verification and consent memory.
For third-party cookies, you may use industry opt-out tools where available. To learn more about online advertising and your choices in the UK, visit Your Online Choices (UK).
4. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, law, or our practices. The “Last updated” date at the top indicates when the policy was last revised. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Significant changes may be communicated via a notice on our website.
