Cookies in plain terms
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. It helps the site remember your preferences, recognise you on return visits, and understand how you use the pages. This policy covers the cookies set by lempi-casino.fi – the independent information portal you're reading now – not those placed by Lempi itself or any other operator.
Cookies can be "session" cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or "persistent" cookies, which stay on your device until they reach a set expiry date or you delete them manually. Some are essential for the site to work; others help us improve what we publish or measure how many people read a given page.
What is stored and for how long
This portal uses a handful of cookie types. The table below sets out the main categories, what they do, and how long they last.
| Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Enable core site functions – page navigation, security, access to member areas if any | Session or up to 1 year |
| Analytics | Count visitors, track which pages are read, measure load times – helps us know what's useful | Up to 2 years |
| Advertising and affiliate | Track clicks to Lempi or other operators, attribute sign-ups to this portal for commission | Up to 90 days |
| Preference | Remember settings like language, layout choices, or whether you've dismissed a banner | Up to 1 year |
Strictly necessary cookies are set as soon as you load a page – they keep the site working and cannot be switched off without breaking basic functions. The other three categories require your consent, which you can grant or withdraw through the banner that appears on your first visit or by changing your browser settings.
Embedded third parties
Some content on lempi-casino.fi is served by external providers – analytics platforms, advertising networks, or content-delivery networks that host images and scripts. When you load a page carrying such content, those third parties may set their own cookies, governed by their own privacy policies rather than ours.
Common third-party services you might encounter here include Google Analytics, which measures traffic and reading patterns, and affiliate tracking scripts, which record clicks through to Lempi or other operators. We choose these partners carefully, but we do not control the cookies they set or the data they collect once their script runs in your browser.
If you want to know exactly what a third-party cookie does, check the provider's own documentation. Most publish detailed cookie policies on their own sites, and the major platforms – Google, for instance – offer opt-out tools that work across any site using their services.
Declining without breaking the site
You can manage cookies in your browser at any time. Every modern browser lets you block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or delete cookies already stored. The steps vary slightly by browser:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. Choose "Block third-party cookies" or "Block all cookies".
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. Select "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" or set a custom rule.
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Block all cookies, or use "Prevent cross-site tracking" to stop third parties only.
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies. Turn on "Block third-party cookies" or clear stored data.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies will stop parts of lempi-casino.fi from working – you may not be able to navigate properly or submit a contact form. Blocking or deleting analytics and advertising cookies will not break the site; you'll simply browse without those measurements being recorded, and you may see less relevant content or offers.
You can also use browser extensions like uBlock Origin or Privacy Badger, which block tracking scripts and third-party cookies by default while leaving functional cookies alone. These tools offer finer control than the browser's built-in settings and update their block lists regularly.
Updates
We review this cookie policy whenever we add a new third-party service, change how analytics works, or update the categories of cookies in use. When a material change happens, we'll update the date below and, where appropriate, show a notice on the site so you know something has shifted.
The policy you're reading now was last updated on 15 January 2026. If you have questions about how cookies work on this portal, or if you'd like to exercise any rights under UK data-protection law, write to [email protected] and we'll respond within 48 hours.
