Cookies Policy | Bwin Casino

1. What cookies are

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 and between visits. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting, known as first-party cookies, or by another service provider working with the website, known as a third-party cookie.

Similar technologies can include pixels, tags, local storage, software development kits and other tools that collect or store information on a device or help identify activity. This policy uses the word cookies to refer to cookies and these similar technologies unless a distinction is necessary.

Some cookies remain on your device only for the duration of your browsing session and are removed when you close your browser. Other cookies remain for a longer period or until you delete them. The period for which a cookie remains may depend on its purpose and the settings applied to your browser or device.

Information that cookies may collect

Depending on their purpose, cookies may collect information such as your device type, browser type, operating system, language preferences, approximate location, pages viewed, links selected, session activity and technical information about how you interact with the website. Cookies generally do not reveal your name by themselves. However, information collected through cookies may be combined with information held in your account or obtained through your use of the services.

Cookies are not intended to replace identity, age or account verification processes. Where you use gambling services, information about your activity may also be processed under applicable privacy, safety, security and responsible gambling requirements.

2. How Bwin Casino uses cookies

Bwin Casino may use cookies for different purposes. The cookies used on a particular page or service may vary according to the features available, the device you use and your cookie settings.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for core website functions and cannot normally be switched off through the website's cookie controls. They may support account sign-in, secure navigation, session management, fraud prevention, payment or transaction flows, security controls, and the display of requested pages. Without these cookies, parts of the website may not operate correctly or may be unavailable.

Preference and functionality cookies

These cookies remember choices you make, such as language, region, display preferences or other settings. They can make your visits more convenient by reducing the need to enter the same information repeatedly. If you disable them, some preferences may not be retained and certain features may work in a more limited way.

Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies help Bwin Casino understand how visitors use the website. They may provide information about popular pages, navigation, loading performance, errors and general patterns of use. This information can be used to test improvements, monitor performance and make the services easier to use. Where possible, analytics information is assessed in an aggregated or otherwise appropriate form.

Security and fraud-prevention cookies

Cookies and similar technologies may be used to protect accounts, identify unusual activity, help prevent fraud, maintain platform integrity and support the safe operation of gambling services. These tools may help detect automated activity, unauthorised access, suspicious transactions or other behaviour that could affect users or the website.

Advertising and marketing cookies

Where permitted and where relevant choices have been provided, cookies may be used to measure campaigns, understand interactions with promotional content and deliver information that may be more relevant to your interests. Marketing cookies may be set by Bwin Casino or by service providers acting on its behalf. You can manage certain marketing preferences through available cookie controls, browser settings or other opt-out tools.

Embedded content and third-party services

The website may include content, tools or services provided by third parties. These providers may use their own cookies or similar technologies when their features are loaded or used. Third-party providers may process information under their own privacy and cookie policies. Bwin Casino does not control every cookie that may be placed by an external service, so you should review the relevant third party's information where appropriate.

3. Your cookie choices and browser controls

You may have choices about whether certain cookies are used. Where a cookie banner, preference centre or other control is available, you can use it to accept or reject categories of cookies that are not strictly necessary. Your choices may be stored in a cookie, so you may be asked to confirm them again if you clear cookies, change device or use a different browser.

You can also manage cookies through your browser or device settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, block or restrict cookies. The way to do this differs between browsers and devices, so refer to the help or settings menu for the browser you use. Some devices also offer controls for advertising identifiers or similar tracking technologies.

Block all cookies, including cookies needed for basic website functions.
Delete existing cookies from your device.
Allow cookies only from selected websites.
Receive a notification before cookies are placed.
Restrict third-party cookies or similar tracking tools.

If you block or delete cookies, you may still be able to browse some public areas of the website, but account functions, security features, preferences, forms, payments or other services may not work as intended. Changing cookie settings does not necessarily remove information that has already been collected or stored by Bwin Casino or a third-party provider. Additional steps may be required where an applicable opt-out mechanism is offered.

If you use more than one browser or device, you may need to apply your preferences separately to each one. Cookie choices may also affect all websites or services that use the same browser settings, not only Bwin Casino.

4. Privacy, updates and contact

Information collected through cookies may be personal information where it can be linked to you or your account. Bwin Casino handles such information in accordance with its Privacy Policy and applicable Australian privacy requirements. The Privacy Policy explains more about the types of information collected, the purposes of processing, disclosures, security measures, retention and rights or choices that may apply.

Bwin Casino may use service providers to host, analyse, secure or support the website and its online services. Those providers may process information on behalf of Bwin Casino and may use cookies or similar technologies to provide their services. Third-party websites, applications and advertising platforms may have separate policies, and this Cookies Policy does not govern how those third parties process information outside Bwin Casino's services.

This Cookies Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the website, technology, legal requirements or the way cookies are used. The latest version will be made available on this page. If a change is material, additional notice may be provided where appropriate. You should review this page periodically so that you remain informed about current cookie practices.

If you have a question about cookies, your privacy or the use of information on the website, please use the official support or contact channels made available through Bwin Casino. Do not include unnecessary sensitive information in a general enquiry. Requests relating to accounts, identity checks, payments, responsible gambling or data rights may require additional verification before they can be considered.

By using the website after this policy has been updated, you acknowledge the updated use of cookies to the extent permitted by law and subject to the cookie choices and controls available to you.
