Cookies Policy | Wingaga Casino

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files or similar data files that may be placed on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or other device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise a device, remember certain information and support functions during a visit or on later visits. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting, known as first-party cookies, or by another service provider operating on the website, known as third-party cookies.

Some cookies are stored only for the duration of your browsing session. These are generally removed when you close your browser. Other cookies remain on your device for a longer period, subject to their purpose, your browser settings and any choices you make. Similar technologies can include pixels, tags, local storage and software development kits. This policy uses the word cookies to cover these technologies where appropriate.

Cookies do not usually contain information that directly identifies you by name. However, information collected through cookies may be linked with account, device or usage information. Where this happens, the information will be handled in accordance with applicable privacy requirements and our Privacy Policy.

Why cookies are used

To help the website operate and provide requested features.
To remember selections, settings and preferences.
"To support account access, security and fraud prevention.
To understand how visitors use the website and identify technical issues.
To measure website performance and improve content, navigation and services.
To support relevant communications, advertising or campaign measurement where permitted.

2. Types of cookies we may use

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are needed for core website functions. They may support navigation, secure areas, session management, authentication, fraud monitoring and the operation of forms or other requested services. Without these cookies, parts of the website may not work correctly. Because they are necessary for basic operation, they may not be removable through every cookie preference tool, although you can usually control them through your browser settings.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember information you have chosen, such as language, region, display preferences or other settings. They can make future visits more convenient and help provide a more consistent experience. If you disable these cookies, some personalised features may not operate as intended and you may need to enter preferences again.

Analytics and performance cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website. They may collect information such as pages viewed, links selected, approximate location, browser type, device information, visit duration and technical errors. This information is generally used in an aggregated or pseudonymous form to monitor performance, improve usability and make the website more effective. Analytics providers may process information on our behalf under their own terms and privacy notices.

Advertising and measurement cookies

Where used and permitted, advertising or measurement cookies may help us understand whether marketing communications or campaigns are effective. They may record visits to the website, interactions with promotional content or information about the device and browser used. These cookies may be placed by us or by authorised third parties. They are not intended to encourage harmful gambling or to bypass responsible gambling controls. Marketing activity may be subject to applicable laws, platform rules and user preferences.

Security and compliance technologies

We may use cookies and similar tools to protect the website, detect suspicious activity, reduce abuse, support identity and age checks, maintain account security and meet legal or operational requirements. These technologies can help us identify unusual behaviour or attempts to interfere with website systems. They may operate even when optional cookies have not been enabled if they are necessary for security or compliance.

3. Third-party services and information sharing

Some website features may be provided with the assistance of third-party service providers. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver hosting, security, analytics, payment, customer support, content, advertising or other technical services. The information collected may be shared with the relevant provider only where required to provide its service, maintain security, comply with legal obligations or support legitimate business operations.

Third parties may have their own privacy policies and cookie practices. We recommend reviewing the information provided by any third-party service before using its features. We do not control every cookie that may be placed by an external service, and the availability of third-party controls may change from time to time.

Cookie information may be processed in Australia or another country, depending on where our service providers operate. Where information is handled outside Australia, reasonable steps should be taken to address applicable privacy and security requirements. Further information about personal information handling, access requests and disclosures is available in our Privacy Policy.

Information that may be collected

The date and time of a visit or interaction.
Pages, content or features accessed.
Browser type, operating system and device characteristics.
Approximate location or general regional information.
Referral information, such as the website or campaign that brought you to us.
Preferences, session details and technical information.
Information about errors, performance and security events.

We do not use cookies to remove or weaken responsible gambling protections. Cookie information may be combined with other information where necessary for security, account administration, legal compliance, service improvement or other purposes described in our Privacy Policy.

4. Managing cookies and your choices

You may be able to manage optional cookies through the cookie banner, preference centre or other settings made available on the website. You can usually choose whether to accept certain categories of cookies, subject to the operation of necessary cookies. Your choices may be stored in a preference cookie so that the website can remember them.

You can also manage cookies through your browser. Most browsers allow you to view, block, delete or restrict cookies. Browser controls differ between providers, so you should check your browser's help or settings menu for instructions. If you use more than one browser or device, settings may need to be applied separately.

Disabling or deleting cookies may affect your experience. Website functions may become unavailable, preferences may not be remembered, pages may not display correctly or you may need to complete certain steps again. Blocking cookies does not necessarily prevent all online advertising, but it may reduce the relevance or measurement of some advertising.

Mobile and device settings

Mobile devices and applications may provide additional privacy controls, including advertising or tracking settings. These controls are managed by the device or operating system provider and may not cover every technology used by a website. You should review the privacy settings available on your device and any application you use to access Wingaga Casino.

Do Not Track signals

Browsers and devices may offer Do Not Track or similar settings. Because there is no consistent industry standard for interpreting these signals, the website may not respond to every such setting in the same way. Available cookie choices and browser controls remain the main ways to manage optional technologies.

5. Changes, retention and questions

The cookies and similar technologies used on the website may change as our services, security measures, providers and legal obligations develop. We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time. Any revised version will be made available on this page, and the updated policy will apply from the date it is published unless stated otherwise. You should review this page periodically for the latest information.

Cookies are retained for different periods depending on their purpose. Session cookies may expire when your browsing session ends, while other cookies may remain for a defined period or until they are deleted. Retention may also depend on your browser, device settings and the service provider that places the cookie. We aim to keep cookie-related information only for as long as reasonably required for the purpose for which it was collected, security, record keeping or legal compliance.

If you have questions about this Cookies Policy, want to understand how your information is handled or wish to exercise an available privacy right, please use the current contact or privacy request method provided on the Wingaga Casino website. We may need to verify your request before taking action. Nothing in this policy limits any rights or protections available to you under applicable Australian privacy or consumer law.

By continuing to use the website, you acknowledge that cookies and similar technologies may be used as described in this policy. Where required, we will ask for your consent before placing optional cookies. You can change your choices at any time through the available preference controls or your browser settings.
