18+TipOracle uses cookies to keep the site working, understand how it is used and serve advertising that funds the free service. Strictly necessary cookies are always active. Analytics and advertising cookies require your consent. You can manage your preferences at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the footer.
Required for the site to function. Cannot be disabled.

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, phone or tablet) when you visit. They are stored in your browser and sent back to the website on subsequent visits. Cookies allow websites to remember your preferences, understand how you use the site and deliver relevant content and advertising.
Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by other companies — such as analytics providers or advertising networks — are called third-party cookies. TipOracle uses both.
Cookie use in the UK is governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent under PECR. All other cookies — analytics, advertising and third-party — require your freely given, specific and informed consent before being placed on your device. We request this consent through the cookie banner shown on your first visit.
Strictly necessary cookies are essential for the website to function correctly. They enable core features such as navigation, theme preferences and session management. Without these cookies, parts of the site would not work. Under PECR, these cookies do not require your consent. You cannot opt out of strictly necessary cookies via our cookie banner — however, you can block them in your browser settings, though doing so may impair site functionality.
| Cookie Name | Set By | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| cookie_consent | TipOracle | Stores your cookie consent preferences so the consent banner is not shown on every page load. Records which categories you have accepted or declined. | 12 months |
| theme_pref | TipOracle | Remembers your light or dark theme selection across page loads and sessions. | 12 months |
| PHPSESSID | TipOracle | PHP session identifier. Maintains session state across page loads during your visit. Deleted when you close your browser. | Session |
| cf_clearance | Cloudflare | Set by our CDN / DDoS protection provider. Verifies that your browser has passed a security challenge. Required for site security and availability. | 1 year |
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use TipOracle — which pages are visited, how long people spend on them, where visitors come from and what devices they use. This information is used to improve the site's content, navigation and performance. No personally identifiable information is stored in our analytics. IP addresses are anonymised (truncated) before any data is sent to our analytics provider.
Analytics cookies are only placed on your device if you consent via the cookie banner. You can withdraw consent at any time via Cookie Settings in the footer.
| Cookie Name | Set By | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Registers a unique anonymous ID to distinguish returning visitors. Used to calculate page visits, sessions and traffic source statistics. IP anonymisation is enabled — full IP addresses are never stored. | 2 years |
| _ga_XXXXXXXX | Google Analytics | Used by Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to persist session state and distinguish user sessions across page loads. | 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics | Registers a unique anonymous ID used to distinguish users within a 24-hour window. Deleted after 24 hours. | 24 hours |
| _gat | Google Analytics | Used to throttle request rate to the Google Analytics service. Limits data collection on high-traffic sites. | 1 minute |
Google Analytics data is processed by Google LLC. IP anonymisation is enabled on all TipOracle properties, meaning IP addresses are truncated before storage. No personally identifiable data is sent to Google Analytics. Data is retained for 14 months (the GA4 default). For more information see Google's Privacy Policy.
TipOracle displays advertising to fund the free service. Advertising cookies are used to serve relevant ads, limit how often you see the same ad and measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns. These cookies are set by Google and other advertising partners.
Advertising cookies are only placed on your device if you consent via the cookie banner. If you do not consent to advertising cookies, you will still see ads on TipOracle — but they will be non-personalised (contextual) ads only, and no advertising cookies will be stored.
| Cookie Name | Set By | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _gcl_au | Google Ads conversion tracking. Used to record when a user has clicked an ad and subsequently performed a tracked action. | 3 months | |
| IDE | Google DoubleClick | Used to register and report ad clicks and impressions in order to measure ad effectiveness and enable interest-based advertising. | 13 months |
| test_cookie | Google DoubleClick | Checks whether the user's browser supports cookies. Set briefly and discarded. | Session |
| DSID | Used to identify a signed-in Google user when they visit a publisher site to show personalised advertising. | 2 weeks |
In addition to the specific cookies listed above, other third-party services embedded in or linked from TipOracle may set their own cookies subject to your consent. These may include:
| Service | Category | Why It May Set Cookies | More Info |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google Fonts | Functional | TipOracle loads fonts from Google Fonts. Google may record this request. No advertising cookie is set by Google Fonts. | Policy → |
| Cloudflare CDN | Security | Our content delivery and security provider may set security-related cookies (see Section 2). These are strictly necessary and set without consent. | Policy → |
| Ad network partners | Advertising | Advertising partners serving display ads on TipOracle may set their own cookies for ad delivery, frequency capping and measurement — subject to your advertising cookie consent. | Varies |
TipOracle does not control third-party cookies. For details on how third parties use cookies, refer to their own privacy and cookie policies. We will update this list whenever new third-party services are added to the site.

When you visit TipOracle for the first time, a cookie consent banner is displayed. The banner:
| Requirement | How TipOracle Meets It |
|---|---|
| Freely given | Accepting or declining non-essential cookies has no effect on your ability to use the site. Strictly necessary cookies are always active regardless of your choice. |
| Specific | The banner offers separate opt-in controls for analytics and advertising cookies — you can accept one category without accepting the other. |
| Informed | The banner clearly describes each cookie category and links to this full Cookie Policy for details. |
| Unambiguous | Consent requires an affirmative action (clicking Accept). Browsing the site without interacting with the banner does not constitute consent for non-essential cookies. |
| Withdrawable | Consent can be withdrawn at any time via Cookie Settings in the footer. Withdrawal takes effect immediately and the relevant cookies are deleted from your device. |
| Recorded | Your consent preferences are stored in the cookie_consent cookie on your device. We retain a record of when consent was given or withdrawn. |
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, new services we adopt or changes in applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We will also reset the cookie consent banner so that returning visitors are asked to review and re-confirm their preferences.
We recommend checking this page periodically. Continued use of TipOracle after a policy update constitutes acknowledgement of the updated policy.
