Cookie Policy

Rhode Island Council on Problem Gambling uses cookies and other tracking technologies to improve our performance and enhance your user experience. At times we may seek to place a cookie on your device (for instance, your computer’s hard drive) which allows the server to recognise the device when it visits again, in order to track statistical information about navigation to and throughout certain areas of our website, and to Rhode Island Council on Problem Gambling promotions on other websites. The information that is tracked by such a cookie is used only for internal purposes, such as to improve website navigation and to measure the effectiveness of our promotional placements. For example, we keep track of the domains from which people visit and we also measure visitor activity on the website, but in a manner that would keep the information anonymous.

To administer our sites and for research purposes, Rhode Island Council on Problem Gambling also has contracted with third-party service providers to track and analyze statistical usage and volume information from our website users. A regular audit is performed periodically via a tool which is automatically re-scanning the cookies used. These third-party service providers use persistent cookies to help us to improve the user experience, manage our site content, and analyze how users navigate and utilize the websites.
