Cookies Policy | Cherry Gold Casino

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website may place on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or another device when you visit. They allow the website to recognise your browser or device and remember certain information about your visit. Cookies do not normally contain information that directly identifies you, such as your name or contact details. However, information collected through cookies may sometimes be linked with other information held about you.

Cherry Gold Casino may also use similar technologies, including pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage and device identifiers. These technologies can perform functions similar to cookies, such as remembering preferences, measuring website activity, helping to prevent fraud and supporting the security of an account.

Cookies can be set by Cherry Gold Casino, which are known as first-party cookies, or by another service provider working on or through the website, which are known as third-party cookies. Third-party providers may process information collected through their technologies in accordance with their own privacy notices and terms. You should review those notices where relevant.

Types of cookies

Strictly necessary cookies help the website operate. They may support account access, session management, security, fraud prevention, navigation and other essential functions.
Preference cookies remember choices such as language, region, display settings and other features that make the website more convenient to use.
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website, including which pages are visited, how long pages are viewed and whether technical problems occur.
Marketing or advertising cookies may help measure campaigns, limit repeated advertisements, personalise content or understand how visitors interact with promotional material, where these technologies are used and permitted.
Security and risk cookies help identify unusual activity, protect systems, support responsible account administration and reduce the risk of unauthorised access or misuse.

Some cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. These are often called session cookies. Other cookies remain on your device for a longer period or until they expire or are deleted. These are often called persistent cookies. The period for which a cookie remains available depends on its purpose and the settings applied to it.

2. How Cherry Gold Casino uses cookies

Cherry Gold Casino may use cookies and similar technologies for several purposes. The specific cookies used can change as the website, services, security controls and technology providers are updated. Cookies may be used to provide a reliable website experience, support online gaming functions and help us understand how the website is used.

To keep the website available and functional across supported browsers and devices.
To remember information during a browsing session, such as pages visited or choices made on the website.
To support sign-in, account sessions and other authenticated areas where applicable.
To help maintain the integrity and security of the website, accounts and services.
To detect, investigate and prevent suspicious activity, fraud, abuse or attempts to bypass website controls.
To remember consent and cookie preferences so that the same choices do not need to be repeated unnecessarily.
To monitor website performance, identify errors and improve loading, navigation and usability.
To produce aggregated reports about website traffic, engagement and the use of available features.
To understand which communications or promotions may be relevant, subject to applicable requirements and your choices.
To support responsible service administration, including controls intended to protect users and help maintain a safer gambling environment.

The use of cookies does not mean that every visitor is personally identified. In many cases, cookie information is used in an aggregated or pseudonymous form. Where cookie information is combined with account or other personal information, it will be handled in accordance with the applicable Privacy Policy and relevant privacy obligations.

Certain cookies may be provided by technology, analytics, security, payment, customer support or advertising partners. These providers may collect information about your browser, device, approximate location, activity on the website or interactions with their services. Their handling of information may be governed by their own policies, and Cherry Gold Casino does not control all third-party practices.

Cookie information may include an internet protocol address, browser type, operating system, device details, approximate location, referral information, pages viewed, links selected, access times, session information and general interaction data. The information collected will depend on the cookie or technology involved.

Cookies may also help us understand whether website content is suitable for visitors, whether pages operate as intended and whether technical changes improve the user experience. Reports may be reviewed in a combined form rather than as information about one particular visitor. This helps with planning, maintenance and service improvement.

3. Your cookie choices and browser controls

Where available, you can use the cookie preference tool on the website to accept, refuse or adjust certain categories of cookies. Strictly necessary cookies may not be optional because they are required for core website functions, security or the delivery of services you request. If you refuse optional cookies, the website should remain available, but some features may work differently or may be less personalised.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, delete or restrict cookies. You may be able to set your browser to notify you before a cookie is stored or to refuse cookies from particular websites. Instructions vary between browsers and devices, so you should consult the relevant browser or device provider for current guidance.

Review the privacy or cookie settings in your browser or device.
Choose whether to allow cookies generally or for particular websites.
Delete existing cookies if you want to remove cookies already stored on your device.
Revisit the website's cookie preference tool where available and update your selections.
Review your settings again after clearing cookies, changing devices or installing a new browser.

Blocking or deleting cookies may log you out of an account, remove saved preferences, prevent some pages from working correctly or require you to repeat certain selections. If you use more than one browser or device, cookie choices may need to be applied separately on each one. Disabling cookies does not necessarily stop all forms of online advertising or tracking, because other technologies may still be used.

You are responsible for making sure that your cookie settings are suitable for your circumstances. If you share a device, other people who use that device may be able to change its cookie settings or access information stored by the browser. You should take appropriate steps to protect your account, device and login information.

If a cookie is required for a particular account or website feature, refusing that cookie may mean the feature cannot be provided. This does not change any account obligations, eligibility requirements, verification requirements or other terms that apply to your use of the website.

4. Privacy, third parties and policy updates

Information collected through cookies may be used with other information for purposes such as security, service administration, analytics, customer support, legal compliance and the operation or improvement of the website. Personal information will be handled in line with the applicable Privacy Policy and relevant Australian privacy requirements. We take reasonable steps to protect information against misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, subject to the limits that apply to online services and internet communications.

The website may include links, content or services operated by third parties. This Cookies Policy does not control how those third parties use cookies or similar technologies on their own websites or platforms. When you follow an external link, you should review the privacy and cookie information provided by the relevant third party before continuing.

Third-party services may place cookies or use comparable technologies to provide analytics, security, payment support, customer service, advertising or other functions. Those providers may process information outside the website and may apply their own retention periods and privacy practices. The availability of a third-party service does not mean that Cherry Gold Casino endorses every practice of that provider.

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, website features, service providers, legal requirements or our practices. When changes are made, the updated version will be made available on the website and the effective date may be revised where appropriate. You should check this page periodically to remain informed about how cookies and similar technologies are used.
