Cookie Policy
Last updated: 19 June 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how ufc bet Online uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the site, what each category of cookie does, and how you can manage your preferences. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to the owners of the site. Some cookies are set by the site you are visiting (first-party cookies) and some are set by third-party services that are embedded on the page (third-party cookies). Similar technologies such as pixels, local storage and session storage are used for comparable purposes and are covered by this policy.
How we use cookies
ufc bet Online publishes editorial content. We use cookies only to the extent necessary for the site to work reliably and to understand how our content performs. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles of individual readers, and we do not sell cookie data to third parties.
Categories of cookies
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the site to load and function correctly. They do things like remembering your cookie-consent choice so the banner does not reappear on every page, supporting security features, and allowing basic navigation. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), because without them the service you requested cannot be provided.
Analytics cookies
If we use an analytics tool, it may set cookies (first-party or third-party) to count visitors, understand which pages are read most often, and measure basic performance indicators such as page load time. These cookies help us improve the quality of our content. Analytics cookies are set only where you have given consent through the cookie banner, or where local law otherwise permits. Where possible, analytics are configured to minimise the data collected about any individual.
Preference cookies
Preference cookies remember simple settings that improve the reading experience — for example, a stored font-size preference or whether you have dismissed a notice. These are set only with consent, and they do not identify you to any third party.
Advertising cookies
ufc bet Online does not currently run on-site behavioural advertising and does not deploy advertising cookies for behavioural profiling. If this changes in future, this policy will be updated before any such cookies are set, and consent will be collected through the cookie banner.
Third-party cookies
Where the site embeds content or services from third parties — for example, a font provider, a content delivery network or an analytics provider — those third parties may set their own cookies on your device. We select third-party providers that commit to appropriate data protection standards, but we do not control the cookies they set, and their practices are governed by their own privacy and cookie notices.
Managing your cookie preferences
When you first visit the site, you are presented with a cookie banner that lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by re-opening the cookie settings from the banner or from the link in the site footer, where provided.
You can also control cookies directly in your browser. All major browsers — including Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge — offer settings to block cookies, to delete cookies already stored, or to prompt you before a cookie is set. The exact steps vary by browser; the browser’s help documentation explains how. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may break parts of the site.
On mobile devices, both iOS and Android provide settings to manage tracking and to reset advertising identifiers. Those controls apply to apps as well as to the mobile browser.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal or the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. Because industry standards for these signals remain unsettled, ufc bet Online does not currently treat DNT or GPC as a cookie-consent decision on its own, but we will continue to review our approach as UK guidance develops. You can always express your preference explicitly through the cookie banner.
Retention periods
Different cookies persist for different lengths of time. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or until you delete them. The typical retention for the cookies described above ranges from the current browsing session to up to thirteen months, which is the usual upper bound for first-party analytics cookies under UK guidance at the time of publication. Specific retention periods for third-party cookies are set by the third party.
Your rights
Cookies may, in some cases, involve processing of personal data under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). Where that is the case, you have the rights described in our Privacy Policy, including the right to withdraw consent, the right of access, the right to erasure, and the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use, changes in UK law, or changes in guidance from the ICO. The date at the top of the page indicates when the policy was last revised. Material changes will be flagged at the top of the page for a reasonable period.
