1. Introduction

Welcome to MapleOddsHub. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. It outlines what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.

This Cookie Policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and our Terms and Conditions, which detail our wider approach to data protection and platform usage in Canada.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by online service providers, including sports betting platforms, to make their websites or services work efficiently, enhance security, and provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, MapleOddsHub) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., interactive content, analytics, and fraud prevention mechanisms).

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use both session and persistent cookies on our platform. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when your web browser closes. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or are manually deleted.

A. Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of MapleOddsHub. Without these cookies, the core functionality of the betting platform cannot be provided. They are used for:

• Age and Location Verification: Ensuring you meet the legal betting age and geographical requirements of your Canadian province.
• Security: Authenticating users, preventing fraudulent use of login credentials, and protecting user data from unauthorized parties.
• Account Management: Keeping you logged in as you navigate between pages and retaining the contents of your bet slip.

B. Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how users interact with our platform, such as which pages are visited most often and if any error messages are generated. This helps us improve the way our website works.

• Monitoring the performance of live odds updates.
• Analyzing general user traffic and engagement to optimize website design.
• We use tools like Google Analytics for this purpose. The data collected is generally aggregated and anonymous.

C. Functionality Cookies

These cookies allow our platform to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalized features. They may be used to:

• Remember your preferred odds format (e.g., Decimal, Fractional, or American).
• Remember your chosen province to display relevant local events and legal messaging.
• Save your preferences regarding the cookie consent banner itself.

D. Targeting and Advertising Cookies

These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They are used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant betting promotions or adverts on other websites.

• They do not store direct personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
• They help us measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

4. Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use various third-party cookies to report usage statistics of the platform, deliver advertisements, and integrate with payment gateways and identity verification services. We do not have control over the placement of cookies by other websites you visit, even if you are directed to them from our website.
