Policy on cookies and tracking technologies

What are cookies and why are they used?

Technical definition of cookies

Cookies are small text files or fragments of computer data sent to your browser and stored on the hard drive or in the memory of your device (such as a computer, tablet, or smartphone). When you visit our website, these files act as a technical memory. They allow the server to recognize your device on a subsequent visit, enabling certain information about your interactions, technical settings, and preferences to be retained without you having to re-enter it with each page transition.

The importance for operational continuity

For a platform like Cookie Casino, cookies are indispensable for smooth navigation. They ensure you remain logged in while switching between different sections of the site, help balance server load for faster loading times, and protect the infrastructure against unauthorized access. Without these technologies, the website would respond significantly slower, and many interactive functions of digital services would not be technically feasible.

Categories of cookies on our platform

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are fundamental to the website's operation and the delivery of the technical services you request. They manage essential functions such as secure logins, session ID management, and the prevention of fraudulent activities. Because these cookies are technically necessary for the platform's basic stability, they cannot be disabled in our systems. They do not collect information that can be used for marketing purposes and are typically deleted once the browser session ends.

Performance and analytics cookies

These tools collect anonymous statistical information about how visitors use our website. For example, we monitor which pages are most visited, how long users stay in certain sections, and whether they receive technical error messages. The collected data is aggregated and therefore anonymous. The sole purpose is to improve the technical architecture and usability of the interface for all users in the Netherlands, striving for error-free processing of data streams.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies enable the website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred language, regional settings, or interface customizations. This ensures a more consistent and personalized experience. If you do not accept these cookies, some of these personalization features may not function properly, requiring you to manually repeat settings with each new visit to the platforms.

Marketing and tracking technologies

In specific cases, we may use cookies to manage the relevance of our informational messages. These cookies track which sections are technically interesting to you based on your browsing behavior within the site. They also help to limit the frequency of certain notifications and evaluate the effectiveness of our communication. These cookies are typically placed only after your explicit consent via the cookie banner at the start of your session.

Manage your cookie preferences

Consent management on the website

Upon your first interaction with the website, an information banner appears, offering you the opportunity to indicate your preferences. You have the right to decide which non-essential cookies you wish to allow. Through the privacy settings dashboard, typically found at the bottom of the website, you can review or withdraw your choices at any time. Your decision is digitally stored to respect your privacy preferences in future sessions.

Manage cookies via your web browser

Most modern web browsers offer users the ability to manage cookies directly through the software settings. You can typically choose the following actions:

  • Block third-party cookies in the browser's privacy settings.
  • Manually or automatically delete cookie and site data history upon closing the browser.
  • Receive a warning before a website attempts to install a cookie.
  • Use the "incognito" or private browsing mode to prevent the storage of permanent data on your hard drive. Note: completely disabling cookies may reduce the technical quality of our services and limit access to advanced security features.

Cookies from external partners and third parties

Cookie Casino sometimes uses services from trusted third parties for traffic analysis or the integration of external tools. These partners may place their own cookies on your device when you interact with their content via our site. Although we work closely with these parties, we have no direct technical control over the specific parameters of their cookies. We recommend that you consult the privacy and cookie policies of these external providers for more information about their data processing.

Updates to this policy

We reserve the right to update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in technology, Dutch legislation, or our operational processes. Any changes will be published on this page with a revised date. We advise users to read this document regularly to stay informed about how we use these technologies for your protection.
