We all know they are there and generally click the consent button. Sometimes (myself included) this is done in good faith. But what are you giving your consent to on here? Have to say i am not very computer literate but looked twice at their policy;
Targetting Cookies;
Used to deliver content such as adverts,tend to be from 3rd party with Betfairs permission and may share information about websites you have visited with other organisations. These tailor content you have provided to their "sister sites" who are these "sister sites"?

Or they free or is someone making money out of information most are consenting to give in good faith?
The cheek part is after you have provided Betfair by consenting to cookies and therefore your personal information, it will cost you £10 to view that data along with a copy of passport and utility bill.
