Cookie Policy
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Spinchester Casino uses them, and this document explains which ones, why, and how to switch off the ones you would rather not have. The trade-off is worth stating first: rejecting essential cookies breaks the site, and there is no way around that.
What cookies do on our site
Cookies keep you logged in between page loads. Cookies remember which currency you selected and which language you set. Cookies let the game window communicate with the account balance. Cookies protect against fraudulent session hijacking. Cookies feed anonymised analytics that show us which pages break and which promotions people ignore. Cookies fire advertising pixels that report back to partner platforms. That is the practical function set. Everything else stems from it.
Categories in use
Strictly necessary cookies operate the site itself. Session management, load balancing, security tokens, and payment page routing depend on them. There is no consent mechanism for these, because switching them off means the site does not function. That is a technical fact, not a policy choice.
Functional cookies save preferences. Language selection, display settings, region, and remembered login details fall into this group. Disabling them means the site works but forgets you between sessions.
Analytics cookies collect aggregate data about how the site is used. Pages viewed, time on page, click patterns, and error rates feed into optimisation work. Providers we use include Google Analytics and comparable platforms. Data is aggregated, and individual users are not identified within the reports we receive.
Advertising and targeting cookies track behaviour across sessions and, in some cases, across websites. They allow us to measure the effectiveness of promotional campaigns and to show relevant advertising on third-party platforms. Meta, Google Ads, and affiliated networks may set cookies through our pages. This category requires explicit consent and can be withdrawn at any point.
Third-party cookies
We do not fully control cookies set by our partners. Payment processors, game suppliers, analytics platforms, and advertising networks operate their own privacy policies, and the cookies they set are governed by those policies. Where possible we list the third parties involved on our consent banner. Where a third party changes its cookie behaviour, we update this document within a reasonable time.
How long cookies stay
Session cookies expire when the browser closes. Persistent cookies expire on a schedule ranging from twenty-four hours to two years, depending on purpose. Analytics cookies typically last thirteen months. Advertising cookies vary by network. Exact durations appear in the consent preferences panel.
Managing your preferences
The consent banner shown on your first visit lets you accept, reject, or configure by category. You can reopen the preferences panel from the footer at any point and change your mind. Every mainstream browser also allows you to block or delete cookies at the browser level, through settings menus that vary by product. Blocking all cookies through the browser is possible, and it will break the login flow on our site. That is the outcome, and stating it plainly beats surprising you later.
Do Not Track
We honour Do Not Track signals for analytics and advertising cookies where the browser transmits them and where the third-party network respects the signal. Strictly necessary cookies are unaffected, because the site cannot function without them.
Updates
We revise this policy when the cookies we use change or when the law changes. Substantial updates are notified through the consent banner. Continued use of the site after notification counts as acknowledgement of the revised terms.
