9pokies Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how 9pokies Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use its website and related online services. It describes the purposes for which these technologies may be placed on your device, the categories that may be used, and the choices available to you.
Cookies help 9pokies Casino provide a secure, reliable and convenient experience for customers in Australia. This policy should be read together with the casino's Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions. The services are intended for people aged 18 and over only.
Understanding Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or another internet-connected device. When you return to the website, your browser sends the relevant cookie information back to the website. This can help the site recognise your device, remember selected settings and understand how visitors use its pages.
Some cookies are placed directly by 9pokies Casino. Others may be set by carefully selected third-party service providers that support functions such as website analytics, security, advertising or technical performance. Cookies may remain on your device only for the duration of your visit, or they may stay there until they expire or are deleted.
Cookies do not normally identify you by name on their own. Depending on the technology used and how it operates with other information, cookie data may be associated with an account, device or online activity. 9pokies Casino handles information obtained through cookies in accordance with its applicable privacy practices.
Cookie Categories We Use
The cookies used on the 9pokies Casino website can generally be grouped according to their purpose. A single cookie may support more than one function, and the precise cookies in use may change as the website, security measures and services develop.
- Essential cookies support core website functions, account access, security and transaction-related processes.
- Performance cookies provide information about website use, speed, errors and visitor interaction.
- Functional cookies remember preferences and improve the way features operate.
- Marketing cookies may help deliver relevant promotions and measure the effectiveness of advertising activity.
Some cookies are session cookies, which are removed when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period or until you remove them through your browser or device settings. The duration of a cookie depends on its purpose and technical configuration.
Cookies Needed for Core Services
Essential cookies are required for important parts of the website to function correctly. Without these technologies, certain services may not be available or may not operate as intended. They may be used whether or not you choose to accept optional cookies because they are necessary to provide a requested online service.
At 9pokies Casino, essential cookies may help to:
- Maintain a secure connection while you browse or use account features.
- Support account sign-in, session management and access controls.
- Remember information needed to complete a requested process.
- Help protect the website against suspicious activity, misuse and unauthorised access.
- Route website requests correctly and maintain technical stability.
- Apply security and compliance controls relevant to the online casino environment.
Blocking essential cookies may prevent you from logging in, using account functions, completing certain activities or accessing some areas of the website. These cookies are not intended to create a profile of your browsing interests.
Measuring Website Performance
Performance cookies collect information about how visitors use the website. They help 9pokies Casino identify which pages are visited, whether features work as expected and where technical improvements may be needed. The information is generally used in an aggregated or otherwise limited form to assess website performance.
These cookies may record details such as:
- The pages or features visited and the approximate time spent using them.
- How visitors navigate between different parts of the website.
- Whether a page loads correctly or produces an error.
- General device, browser or connection information used to improve compatibility.
- Responses to changes made to the website, such as updated layouts or navigation.
Performance information assists with maintenance, troubleshooting and service planning. It may also help the casino identify slow pages, broken links or other issues that could affect the customer experience. If you disable these cookies, the website should generally remain available, but 9pokies Casino may have less information for diagnosing performance problems.
Remembering Your Preferences
Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide a more personalised experience without requiring you to repeat the same settings each time you visit. They are designed to support convenience and consistent website behaviour rather than measure general browsing activity.
Depending on the features available, functional cookies may remember preferences such as language or display settings, selected website options, and the way certain content is presented. They may also support enhanced features that you choose to use during a visit.
If functional cookies are rejected, some preferences may need to be selected again, and certain optional features may not operate in the same way. Essential services will continue to depend on essential cookies and other security technologies, regardless of whether optional functional cookies are enabled.
Promotional and Advertising Cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to support promotional activity, understand how advertising campaigns perform and show content that is more relevant to visitors. They can help limit repeated advertisements, measure visits resulting from a campaign and provide information about interactions with promotional material.
These cookies may be placed by 9pokies Casino or by third-party providers acting on its behalf. They can collect information about the device, browser, website activity and interactions with advertisements. The information may be combined with other data held by a provider, subject to that provider's own privacy terms and applicable controls.
Marketing cookies are optional where a consent choice is available. Refusing them does not necessarily remove all advertising, but it may make promotional content less tailored and may reduce the casino's ability to measure campaign results. 9pokies Casino does not use cookies to encourage anyone under 18 to access its services.
Controlling Your Cookie Choices
You can manage cookies in several ways. When a cookie preference tool is presented on the website, you may use it to accept or reject available categories of optional cookies. Your choices may be stored so that they can be applied during later visits, although you may need to make a new selection if you delete the relevant preference cookie or use another device or browser.
Most browsers also allow you to control cookies through their privacy or security settings. Depending on the browser, you may be able to:
- Block all cookies or allow only certain categories.
- Delete cookies already stored on your device.
- Receive a notification before cookies are placed.
- Allow cookies only for selected websites.
- Remove persistent cookies automatically after a chosen period.
Browser controls are separate from the 9pokies Casino website preference tool. Blocking cookies at browser level may affect other websites and can prevent essential casino functions from operating correctly. If you use more than one browser or device, settings may need to be applied separately on each one.
Deleting cookies does not always delete information that has already been collected by a service provider. For questions about personal information or your available privacy rights, please use the contact page on the 9pokies Casino website.
Cookies Set by Other Providers
Some website functions may involve third-party technologies. These providers may place cookies or use similar tools to deliver services such as analytics, security, payment support, content delivery or advertising measurement. The third party responsible for the technology may process information under its own privacy policy and terms.
Third-party cookies can change as providers, website features or technical arrangements change. 9pokies Casino seeks to use third-party services for legitimate operational and business purposes, but it does not control every aspect of how an independent provider processes data. You should review the relevant provider information where it is made available.
A third party may be able to recognise your device when you visit other websites that use the same provider's technology. This can allow activity to be analysed across different online services, depending on the provider's configuration and your settings. You can restrict optional third-party cookies through the casino's consent controls and your browser settings.
Changes to This Policy
9pokies Casino may update this Cookies Policy when its website, technologies, services, business arrangements or legal and compliance expectations change. An updated version will be published on the website with a revised effective date where appropriate.
Changes may include the introduction of a new cookie category, a change in the purpose of an existing technology, or updated information about how choices can be managed. You should review this page periodically so that you remain informed about the way cookies are used.
Where a change requires a new consent choice, the website may display an updated cookie notice or preference tool. Continuing to use the website after an updated policy is published will not override any consent choice that the law requires 9pokies Casino to obtain separately.
