This page explains how Waliya Bet uses cookies and similar technologies on its Ethiopian website, mobile site, and app-related services where applicable. These technologies may support secure login sessions, account protection, fraud and abuse prevention, website performance, analytics, marketing measurement, language and user preferences, and responsible gaming and age-restriction controls. Their use depends on the service, enabled tools, and your choices.
Last updated: [Insert confirmed publication date]. This policy should be read alongside the Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions. The categories below describe possible uses; they do not confirm that every technology is active on every page.
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a small file stored by your browser that helps a website remember information about your visit or device. Similar browser storage items can serve the same purpose. For example, a cookie can help keep your session active as you move between account pages or remember your language choice.
Where used, related technologies include pixels and tags that record page events, local storage that saves browser preferences, and software development kits (SDKs) or device identifiers used by apps. These technologies may operate differently from browser cookies, so browser controls may not manage all app-related tracking.
Why Waliya Bet Uses Cookies
Some cookies are necessary for the platform to function. Others support optional features, measurement, or personalization and may depend on consent or available privacy settings. Waliya Bet cookies may help:
- Keep users signed in and maintain continuity between account screens.
- Protect accounts from suspicious activity and automated abuse.
- Remember cookie choices, language settings, and display preferences.
- Improve loading speed, navigation, and mobile usability.
- Understand which pages are useful and identify errors.
- Measure campaigns without placing sensitive account details in advertising reports.
- Support security, eligibility, and responsible gaming controls, subject to applicable Ethiopian laws and regulations.
Cookies do not replace identity verification, customer due diligence, or account-level restrictions. Rejecting optional tracking should not be treated as removing age restrictions, deposit limits, or self-exclusion controls.
Types of Cookies We May Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies support basic functions such as Waliya Bet login, account registration, secure account access, session continuity, and cookie preference storage. They may also protect payment flows and support age-gate checks described in the Age Restriction Policy.
Blocking them may prevent a page from recognizing your session or completing an account action. They should be limited to necessary purposes, rather than used as a label for optional advertising tracking.
Security and Fraud Prevention Cookies
Security cookies and related identifiers may help detect suspicious patterns, reduce automated abuse, and protect accounts and the integrity of betting, keno, live betting, and gaming areas. This policy does not disclose operational detection rules that could enable abuse.
Account use remains subject to the Terms and Conditions. Where implemented, these tools may support responsible gaming measures, but browser identifiers alone cannot reliably enforce every restriction across devices.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Waliya Bet analytics cookies may measure page visits, loading problems, device types, navigation paths, and content quality. For example, performance data can help identify whether the games pages are difficult to load on a mobile connection.
Analytics should improve the service, not publicly expose private betting details. Data may be aggregated or pseudonymized where applicable; pseudonymized data may still be linkable to a person. Optional analytics choices should be handled through the available consent controls.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies may remember language, region, odds format, device display settings, or a login preference. Cookie-choice storage may instead be classified as strictly necessary. A remembered login preference is not the same as storing your password in a cookie.
Preferences on the website and the Waliya Bet app may differ. Browser settings do not necessarily carry over to an app, and optional functional cookies may require separate choices.
Marketing and Advertising Cookies
Where enabled, Waliya Bet marketing cookies may measure campaigns, identify referral sources, limit repeated advertisements, and help display more relevant messages or offers. They do not guarantee bonus eligibility, winnings, or any financial outcome.
You may manage optional marketing cookies through available cookie settings, browser controls, or third-party advertising settings. Rejecting personalized advertising may not remove all advertisements, and external advertising preferences may apply only to a particular browser or device.
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set by Waliya Bet on its own domain. Third-party cookies may be set by service providers supporting analytics, security, payment verification, advertising, hosting, fraud prevention, or customer support. An embedded service may also use similar technologies.
No provider names or exact durations are asserted here without operator confirmation. This category-level summary must be updated to reflect the tools actually deployed.
| Cookie category | Purpose | Example use | Duration | Required or optional | Possible provider |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Core functionality | Login session | [Confirm] | Required for core functions | Operator or infrastructure provider |
| Security | Account protection | Abuse detection | [Confirm] | Required where essential | Operator or security provider |
| Analytics | Service improvement | Loading-error measurement | [Confirm] | Optional where applicable | Operator or analytics provider |
| Functional | Remember preferences | Language selection | [Confirm] | Depends on function | Operator or feature provider |
| Marketing | Campaign measurement | Referral attribution | [Confirm] | Optional | Operator or advertising provider |
How Long Cookies Stay on Your Device
Session cookies usually expire when a session ends or the browser closes, although browser session-restoration features can affect this. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period unless deleted earlier. Exact lifetimes depend on each cookie and must be confirmed in the cookie inventory.
Deleting a cookie does not necessarily delete information already stored in an account or provider system. Those records have separate retention rules.
How Users Can Manage Cookies
- Step 1: Open the website cookie banner or preference center, if available. Review each category and accept or reject optional analytics, marketing, and functional cookies as supported.
- Step 2: Save your choices. You can revisit the controls to change them or withdraw consent where consent is used. Changes generally affect future collection, not processing already completed.
- Step 3: Review your browser and device privacy settings. You can block cookies, restrict third-party tracking, clear browsing data, or adjust app permissions where available.
On a shared device, sign out before clearing browsing data. Clearing cookies may reset preferences and trigger the banner again. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may disrupt login, account security, payments, or gaming features.
For targeted control, rejecting optional categories is generally less disruptive than blocking all cookies. Browser controls offer broader coverage but may affect unrelated sites; app controls apply separately. If a deposit or withdrawal screen stalls, check the transaction record and contact support before repeating the request.
Before providing account-holder information or installing an app or APK, verify the domain and download source through an authorized service channel. Review eligibility, KYC requirements, bonus conditions where relevant, transaction limits, fees, and withdrawal processing times. Cookies do not establish licensing status; consult the Legal Status in Ethiopia information and check the competent authority’s latest information.
Cookies and Personal Data
Some cookies and identifiers may involve personal data, including session identifiers, device information, or records linked to an account. The Privacy Policy explains the applicable collection, storage, processing, sharing, retention, user rights, and contact options.
Secure handling of personal data requires more than a cookie setting. Never send passwords, one-time codes, or full payment credentials when asking about tracking. Any explanation of data protection and privacy must reflect actual operator practices and applicable Ethiopian requirements.
Updates to This Cookie Policy
Waliya Bet may update this policy when technologies, providers, legal requirements, or website features change. The publication date should identify the latest version. Where required, material changes should be communicated and updated consent obtained.
Contact Us
For questions about cookies, preference controls, or privacy, use the official channel listed on the Contact Us page. Describe the affected page, browser or app version, and the setting you want to change. Avoid including sensitive account or payment information.
