This Gursha Bet Cookie Policy explains how Gursha Bet uses cookies and similar technologies on its Ethiopian website, mobile site, and app-related services where applicable. These tools may support secure login sessions, account protection, fraud and abuse prevention, website performance, analytics, marketing measurement, language and user preferences, and responsible gaming or age-restriction controls where applicable.
Cookies are not used to change the outcome of betting or gaming activity. Their practical role is to help the service operate reliably, recognise a returning browser where appropriate, protect account access, and give users meaningful choices about optional tracking. Users should also review the Privacy Policy and the applicable Terms and Conditions before creating or using an account.
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a small text file or browser storage item placed on a device when a person visits a website. It can help the website remember information, such as whether a browser has already accepted a cookie choice, whether an account session is active, or which language setting was selected.
Gursha Bet may also use related technologies, including pixels, tags, local storage, software development kits (SDKs), and device identifiers where these are available and appropriate. In simple terms, these technologies allow a website or mobile service to recognise a device or interaction without requiring a user to repeatedly enter the same settings.
For example, after a user completes Gursha Bet registration, a necessary session cookie may help maintain access while the user moves between account pages. This does not remove the need for account-holder information, identity verification, customer due diligence, or other eligibility requirements that may apply under the operator’s procedures and applicable Ethiopian laws and regulations.
Why Gursha Bet Uses Cookies
Gursha Bet cookies are used for operational, security, and service-improvement purposes. Some are essential because an online account environment cannot function properly without them. Others help measure performance or understand how users find and navigate the service and may be subject to consent choices, browser settings, or device privacy controls.
In a typical user journey, cookies may keep a user securely signed in, help detect suspicious session activity, remember cookie preferences, retain a language or odds-format choice, and reduce repeated age-gate prompts. They can also help identify loading problems, navigation errors, and pages that require improvement. Analytics and marketing measurement should be applied in a manner consistent with data protection and privacy obligations and should not publicly expose private betting details.
Before using account features, users should verify the official domain, read the current Legal Status in Ethiopia information, and confirm that access is permitted for their location and circumstances. Availability may depend on age restriction rules, local requirements, and the operator’s published terms.
Types of Cookies We May Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies support core functions that users reasonably expect from a secure online platform. They may be used for login and registration processes, session continuity, secure account access, payment-flow protection, age-gate checks, fraud prevention, and storage of cookie preference choices.
These cookies can be especially important when using the Gursha Bet login area or protecting an account during a sensitive action. Blocking them may prevent parts of the website from loading correctly or may interrupt account access, payment authorization steps, or security checks. Users should review the Age Restriction Policy before continuing if they are unsure whether they meet the eligibility requirements.
Security and Fraud Prevention Cookies
Security cookies may help identify unusual patterns, reduce automated abuse, protect account sessions, and support the integrity of betting, keno, live betting, and gaming areas. For instance, a security tool may recognise that a session has changed unexpectedly and require additional verification before an account action continues.
Gursha Bet does not publish technical anti-fraud rules that could assist misuse of the service. Users can strengthen their own protection by using a unique password, avoiding shared devices where possible, signing out after use, and contacting support promptly if they see unfamiliar account activity. Responsible account use should also align with the Responsible Gaming information and the platform’s Terms and Conditions.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics and performance cookies help assess how pages load, which device types are used, how visitors move through the website, where errors occur, and whether content is useful. This can help improve navigation between areas such as Gursha Bet football, games, account pages, and support content.
Where applicable, information collected for these purposes may be aggregated or pseudonymized. The objective is to improve service quality and diagnose technical issues, not to disclose a person’s private account activity to the public. Analytics settings may be optional where consent tools or browser controls support that choice.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember settings that make the service easier to use. Depending on the feature available, they may retain language selection, regional display preferences, odds format, device preferences, login preference, or the user’s earlier cookie consent decision.
On a mobile browser or through the Gursha Bet app where applicable, these settings can reduce unnecessary repetition when a user returns to the service. If functional cookies are removed, the platform may still work, but certain preferences may need to be selected again.
Marketing and Advertising Cookies
Marketing and advertising cookies may be used to measure campaign performance, understand referral sources, limit repetitive advertising, and make communications more relevant where this is permitted. They may help distinguish whether a visit came from a campaign or a direct visit, without promising a bonus, winning outcome, or personalised gambling result.
Users may manage marketing cookies through a cookie banner or preference centre where available, browser controls, device settings, or third-party advertising settings where offered. Rejecting optional marketing cookies should not normally stop access to essential website functions, although advertising relevance and measurement may be affected.
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by Gursha Bet through the website or service being used. They commonly support session management, account functionality, preferences, and security controls. Third-party cookies may be placed by service providers that support functions such as analytics, hosting, security, payment verification, advertising measurement, fraud prevention, or customer support.
The actual providers and technologies may change as the service develops. Gursha Bet should maintain and update a category-level cookie record when third-party tools are introduced, changed, or removed. Vendor names, where applicable, should only be published after confirmation by the operator.
| Cookie category | Purpose | Example use | Duration | Required or optional | Possible provider |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Core access and security | Maintaining a secure login session | Session or defined period | Required | Gursha Bet or confirmed service provider |
| Security and fraud prevention | Protect accounts and service integrity | Detecting unusual session behaviour | Session or defined period | Required where necessary | Gursha Bet or confirmed security provider |
| Analytics and performance | Improve usability and reliability | Identifying page-loading issues | Session or defined period | May be optional | Confirmed analytics provider where applicable |
| Marketing and advertising | Measure campaigns and ad frequency | Understanding referral sources | Defined period | May be optional | Confirmed advertising provider where applicable |
How Long Cookies Stay on Your Device
Cookie duration depends on its purpose. Session cookies usually expire when the browser is closed or the session ends. Persistent cookies remain on a device for a defined period unless they are deleted earlier through browser or device controls.
A longer duration does not automatically mean more information is collected. Retention should be limited to what is necessary for the stated purpose, subject to security, legal, operational, and compliance requirements. Exact retention periods should be confirmed in the operator’s current cookie register before publication.
How Users Can Manage Cookies
Users can control cookies in several ways. The most practical approach is to review both website choices and device-level settings:
- Step 1: Use the cookie banner or preference centre, if available, to accept, reject, or adjust optional analytics and marketing cookies.
- Step 2: Review browser settings to block cookies, delete existing cookies, or limit third-party storage.
- Step 3: Check mobile device privacy settings, particularly when accessing app-related services or mobile browser storage.
- Step 4: Clear browsing data if using a shared device, then sign out of the account.
- Step 5: Contact support through Contact Us if cookie settings appear not to work as expected.
Users should consider the result before disabling all cookies. Removing strictly necessary cookies may affect login continuity, account security, payment procedures, access to betting or gaming features, and the ability to save privacy choices. Browser controls and site-level choices serve different purposes: browser controls can apply broadly, while a preference centre may allow more precise selection by category.
Cookies and Personal Data
Some cookies and similar technologies may process personal data or online identifiers, particularly where they relate to an account, device, IP-related information, security event, or user preference. The Privacy Policy explains the broader approach to collection, storage, processing, user rights, secure handling of personal data, and available contact options.
Cookie use should remain consistent with applicable Ethiopian laws and regulations, the relevant data protection and privacy framework, and the operator’s actual practices. Users should check the current policy documents for information about account-holder data, complaint-handling procedures, and any conditions that may apply to their request.
Updates to This Cookie Policy
Gursha Bet may update this Cookie Policy when website features, technologies, service providers, legal requirements, security measures, or cookie practices change. The current version should be reviewed periodically, particularly before using new account, payment, mobile, or promotional features.
Where a material change affects optional cookie choices, Gursha Bet should provide an appropriate notice or renewed consent mechanism where required by the applicable regulatory framework.
Contact Us
Questions about Gursha Bet tracking cookies, cookie preferences, personal data, or privacy practices can be submitted through the official Contact Us channel. When making an enquiry, users should avoid sending passwords or unnecessary sensitive information and should provide only the details needed for the support team to identify the issue.
Compliance note: This Cookie Policy requires review by Gursha Bet’s legal and compliance team before publication to confirm current technologies, providers, consent mechanisms, retention periods, data practices, and compliance requirements.
