Cookies Policy

This Cookies Policy explains how Spinathlon Casino and its platform use browser technologies to support site functionality, keep sessions active, measure performance and remember user preferences. It is written in plain English to help you understand what happens in your browser while you use the site.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They store short pieces of information such as session identifiers, preference flags or anonymous usage data. Similar browser technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage and indexedDB, which hold data locally in your browser for improved performance and continuity.

Why cookies and browser storage are used

These technologies support core site functions and make your visits smoother. Examples include keeping you logged in during a session, remembering chosen language or currency, restoring a game state, improving page loading and collecting anonymised statistics to identify and fix issues.

Essential cookies

Essential cookies are strictly necessary for basic site operations. They enable secure logins, maintain session continuity during transactions and allow navigation across pages. Blocking these cookies will prevent key features from working correctly and may stop you from accessing parts of the site.

Session cookies

Session cookies last only while your browser is open. They support temporary operations such as current login sessions, shopping or game sessions and short-lived security checks. These cookies expire when you close the browser or when the session times out for security reasons.

Persistent cookies

Persistent cookies remain on your device after the browser is closed. They are used to remember preferences, saved settings and opt-in choices between visits. Typical persistence ranges from a few days to months, depending on the stored purpose. You can remove persistent cookies at any time via your browser settings.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies enable features that improve usability, such as remembering your language choice, saving filter settings in the lobby or keeping selected payment options available. These cookies do not profile your behaviour for advertising purposes and are intended to make the site more convenient for returning users.

Analytics and performance cookies

Performance cookies collect aggregated and anonymised data about how visitors use the site. Information such as pages visited, load times and general device types helps identify slow pages, errors and areas to optimise. Data is used in aggregate form to improve stability and user journeys, not to identify individual users.

Preference and language settings

Preference cookies store choices like language, display options and selected currency. Remembering these settings avoids repeating the same selections and keeps the interface consistent each time you visit. If you change language or currency in your account, the corresponding cookie or localStorage entry will update.

Login and session continuity

To keep you logged in between pages or during a longer session, the platform stores secure session tokens in cookies or browser storage. Persistent "remember me" tokens are used only with explicit consent and are protected by standard security controls. If you clear cookies, you may be logged out and need to sign in again.

Device recognition and security-related cookies

Device recognition cookies and similar flags help the platform detect unfamiliar devices or locations and apply security checks. Security cookies can assist with fraud prevention, manage multi-factor authentication prompts and protect session integrity. These measures reduce risk while keeping legitimate access smooth.

Third-party integrations

Some features rely on third-party tools such as analytics frameworks, live chat, payment gateways or media providers. Those services may set their own cookies to deliver functionality. The platform does not control those cookies directly, so the behaviour of third-party cookies is governed by the third party's policies.

Marketing and communication preferences

Marketing cookies are used only if you opt in to receive personalised offers and communications. They support ad relevance and frequency capping. If you later withdraw consent, the platform will stop applying personalised marketing cookies, although general marketing metrics may still be collected in anonymised form.

Cookie consent management

On first visit a consent banner or settings centre allows you to accept, decline or customise cookie categories. You can change those choices at any time through the cookie preferences link in the footer or within your account settings. Withdrawing consent for non-essential cookies will not affect essential site functions.

Browser cookie controls and clearing cookies

Browsers provide controls to view, block and clear cookies. Access those controls via your browser's privacy or settings menu. Clearing cookies will remove stored preferences and may sign you out. If you disable cookies entirely, some parts of the site will not operate correctly.

Effects of disabling cookies

Disabling cookies or blocking browser storage can impact: logging in, saved preferences, shorter session timeouts, inability to maintain game or payment sessions and reduced site performance. Core functions such as account access and payments typically require essential cookies to be enabled.

Technical diagnostics and performance optimisation

Diagnostic cookies and temporary logs help engineers reproduce and fix errors and tune performance. These items are time-limited and often aggregated. They let the platform respond faster to incidents and improve load times and streaming quality for live features.

Aggregated analytics and user experience improvements

Aggregate reports drawn from anonymised cookie data guide product decisions such as interface tweaks, game placement and promotion timing. The aim is to refine flows that cause friction, reduce load times and prioritise commonly used features for a smoother experience.

How to manage or withdraw consent

To change cookie settings use the cookie preferences control on the site or visit your account privacy settings. You can also clear cookies directly in your browser or use private/incognito windows for single, non-persistent sessions. After withdrawing consent for optional cookies, you may need to refresh or re-open the site to apply changes.

Policy updates

This Policy may be updated to reflect changes in site features or browser technology. When material changes are made, notice will be provided through the site interface. Checking this page periodically will keep you informed of how browser data is handled.
