INCookies Policy
Third-party cookies
Some functions on the site rely on external providers, and those providers may set their own cookies when their services are loaded in a browser. Payment processors, for example, often need to verify a transaction securely, which can involve placing a cookie tied to that specific payment session.
Analytics providers may also place cookies to measure how pages are used in aggregate, helping identify slow-loading sections or broken features. These third-party cookies are governed by the respective provider's own privacy practices in addition to this policy, since 4rabet does not control how an external company processes the data it collects through its own tools.
Where such cookies fall outside the strictly necessary category, they are only activated after the visitor has given consent through the cookie banner described above.
Legal basis for using cookies
Cookie rules in most jurisdictions distinguish between cookies that are strictly necessary for a service to function and cookies that serve additional purposes such as analytics or marketing. This distinction matters because it determines whether prior consent is required before a cookie can be set.
Cookies that are essential for logging in, maintaining account security, or enabling basic account features are generally exempt from a consent requirement, since the website could not operate as intended without them. This approach mirrors the logic found in international data protection frameworks such as the GDPR, which treats processing that is necessary for providing a requested service differently from processing carried out for secondary purposes.
Any cookie that goes beyond strict necessity, including those used for analytics or personalised marketing, is only placed with the visitor's consent, and that consent can be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future.
What cookies actually
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks a browser to store. It is not a program and cannot run code on its own; instead, it simply holds a piece of information, such as an identifier, that the site can read back the next time the same browser visits.
On 4rabet, cookies are mainly used to keep a visitor's session active after login, so that moving between pages does not require re-entering credentials every time. They also remember chosen settings, such as interface language or display preferences, so the site does not reset itself on every visit.
Because cookies are stored locally in the browser rather than on our servers, a player always has direct control over them through browser settings, even outside of whatever tools we provide on the site itself.
Contact regarding cookies
Questions about how cookies are used on 4rabet, or requests for clarification about a specific category, can be sent to [email protected].
We aim to respond in a reasonable timeframe and to explain our cookie practices in plain language, since transparency is the main purpose of this policy rather than a formal afterthought.
Players who are concerned about gambling-related harm more broadly, separate from cookie questions, can also reach out to support organisations such as 4rabet or Gamblers Anonymous India, or seek international assistance through 4rabet.
Introduction
4rabet uses cookies on this website so that the pages load correctly and behave the way a returning visitor would expect. Without this basic mechanism, a browser would have no way of remembering that someone is already logged in or has already chosen a display language, which would make the whole experience slower and less convenient.
This policy explains in plain terms why cookies are placed, what categories we distinguish between, and what choices are available to a player who wants more control over what is stored on their device. We keep the explanation practical rather than overly technical, because the goal is clarity, not complexity.
Anyone using this site should be at least 18 years old, in line with general age requirements for gambling-related services, and should read this policy alongside our other legal notices before deciding how to configure their cookie preferences.
Managing and withdrawing consent
Necessary cookies cannot be switched off through the site's interface, because disabling them would prevent core functions such as staying logged in or completing secure transactions from working at all.
All other categories can be managed through the cookie banner that appears on first visit, where a player can accept or decline functional, analytical, and marketing cookies separately rather than as a single bundle. This layered choice exists so that consent reflects what the visitor actually wants, rather than an all-or-nothing decision.
Consent given this way can be withdrawn later, either by revisiting the cookie settings on the site or by adjusting browser-level controls, which allow blocking, deleting, or limiting cookies regardless of what has been configured on the site itself.
