Pocket Pokies Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Pocket Pokies Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website or use our services from Australia. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and the choices you can make to control them.
Cookies do not change your minimum age eligibility (18+) or payment rules (including a minimum deposit of $A20). They are primarily used to help the site function, improve performance, remember your preferences, and support relevant marketing where permitted.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (such as your computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device or browser, either for a single session or for a longer period of time.
Cookies help Pocket Pokies Casino deliver a stable and secure user experience. For example, cookies can keep you signed in during a session, remember settings you choose, and help us understand which pages are used most so we can improve navigation and content.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies, such as:
- Local storage (browser-based storage that can retain certain preferences).
- Pixels or tags (small code elements that help measure activity and campaign effectiveness).
- SDKs in mobile contexts (tools that support app-like features, where applicable).
Types of Cookies
Cookies can be categorised in several ways. Understanding these categories will help you manage them more effectively.
By how long they last
- Session cookies: temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies: cookies that remain until they expire or are deleted, helping remember preferences between visits.
By who sets them
- First-party cookies: set by Pocket Pokies Casino to support site features and preferences.
- Third-party cookies: set by external providers to enable analytics, marketing, or embedded services.
By what they do
- Essential cookies that are necessary for the website to operate.
- Performance cookies that help measure site usage and improve speed and reliability.
- Functional cookies that remember choices and customise your experience.
- Marketing cookies that help deliver and measure advertising and limit repeated ads.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are required for Pocket Pokies Casino to operate properly. Without them, key services may not function or may become unreliable. These cookies are generally used for core operational purposes and are not intended to profile you for advertising.
Examples of how essential cookies may be used include:
- Enabling page navigation and ensuring the site loads correctly.
- Maintaining session integrity and basic security controls.
- Supporting account access features, such as keeping you logged in during a session.
- Helping detect unusual activity and reducing the risk of fraud or automated abuse.
- Recording cookie consent choices so the site can respect your selections.
If you block essential cookies using your browser settings, you may still be able to browse certain parts of the website, but features such as account login, gameplay sessions, or cashier-related functions may not work as intended.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us understand how visitors use Pocket Pokies Casino so we can improve the site’s speed, reliability, and overall usability. These cookies typically gather aggregated information, such as which pages are visited most often, how users move around the site, and whether error messages occur.
We use performance insights to:
- Identify and fix technical issues and broken links.
- Test layout changes to see whether they improve user experience.
- Monitor loading times and reduce delays across devices and browsers.
- Understand which features are used and which may need refinement.
Where practical, we aim to limit performance data to what is necessary and to avoid collecting information that directly identifies you. However, certain analytics tools may use identifiers such as cookie IDs or device-related signals to distinguish returning visitors.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies support personalisation. They help Pocket Pokies Casino remember your preferences so you do not have to reselect them each time you visit. These cookies can make the site feel more consistent and tailored to your choices.
Functional cookies may remember:
- Language and regional display settings.
- Interface preferences, such as layout or display options where available.
- Saved consent settings and other non-essential selections.
- Gameplay-related preferences that do not affect game fairness, outcomes, or payout logic.
If you disable functional cookies, the site will still generally operate, but some features may revert to default settings and may require repeated selections.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to help deliver relevant advertising, manage marketing frequency, and measure campaign effectiveness. They may be set by Pocket Pokies Casino or by third-party advertising partners acting on our instructions. These cookies can track interactions such as ad views, clicks, and visits that occur after an advertisement is shown.
Marketing cookies may be used to:
- Show you offers that are more likely to be relevant based on your browsing activity.
- Limit how often you see the same advertisement.
- Measure whether advertising leads to visits or other on-site actions.
- Create aggregated audiences for reporting and campaign planning.
Some marketing technologies may use information like cookie identifiers, approximate location inferred from IP address, or device characteristics. Choices you make in your browser or through consent tools can reduce or block these cookies. Note that blocking marketing cookies does not eliminate advertising; it may simply make it less tailored.
Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through a combination of our consent tools (where presented) and your browser or device settings. Because browsers differ, the steps below are general guidance.
Common options available in most browsers include:
- Viewing which cookies are stored and deleting them.
- Blocking all cookies or only third-party cookies.
- Allowing cookies only for specific websites.
- Clearing cookies automatically when you close your browser.
You can also visit your browser provider’s help pages for instructions:
- Google Chrome cookie settings
- Mozilla Firefox cookie settings
- Safari cookie settings (macOS)
- Microsoft Edge cookie settings
Please note that deleting cookies may remove saved preferences, and blocking cookies may affect features that rely on them. For example, if you disable certain cookies, Pocket Pokies Casino may not remember your display settings or may require additional steps to keep your session stable.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies and similar technologies on Pocket Pokies Casino are set by third parties. These may include analytics providers, advertising networks, fraud-prevention services, and embedded content providers. Third-party cookies are governed by the third party’s own policies and settings.
Third-party cookies may be used for:
- Analytics and reporting to help us understand site usage trends.
- Marketing delivery and measurement, such as tracking conversions from advertisements.
- Security and risk signals that help detect suspicious activity.
- Providing content or functionality that is delivered through external services.
We aim to work with providers that apply reasonable safeguards and offer controls. However, we do not control how third parties develop or change their technologies. If you would like to reduce third-party tracking, you can block third-party cookies in your browser, use privacy-focused browser settings, and review any consent options offered during your visit.
Policy Updates
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes to technology, site features, or our operational practices. When updates are made, the revised policy will apply from the time it is published on Pocket Pokies Casino.
If you have questions about this Cookies Policy or how cookies are used on our website, you can contact our support team at [email protected].
