Storage on your device
BetVault also keeps a few small items in your browser's local storage. They never leave your device:
bt-theme: your theme choice, so the page switches instantly.bt-install-dismissed: that you dismissed the "install the app" prompt.bv_cookie_notice: that you've seen the cookie notice.bv_seen_edges: which value bets you've already seen, so new ones can be highlighted.
If you install BetVault as an app, your browser also stores a copy of the site files so it loads quickly and works offline.
Your choices
Strictly necessary cookies can't be switched off without breaking sign-in and security. You can delete or block cookies and local storage in your browser settings at any time; you'll be signed out and your display choices will reset. If we ever add non-essential cookies, we'll ask for your consent first.
