Cookies Policy

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files or data files that may be stored on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or another internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise a device, remember information about a visit and support particular functions. Some cookies are temporary and are removed when you close your browser. Other cookies remain on your device until they expire or are deleted.

In this policy, the word cookies also includes technologies that perform similar functions. These may include pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage, device identifiers and other tracking or storage technologies. Depending on how they are configured, these technologies may help us remember preferences, understand website usage, maintain security or measure the effectiveness of communications.

Cookies may be set by Candy96 Casino or by service providers that perform services on our behalf. A cookie may be associated with your device, browser or online activity without directly identifying you by name. In some circumstances, information collected through cookies may be combined with other information, such as information connected with an account or a request made through the website.

The cookies used on the website may vary according to the page you visit, the features you use, your browser, your device and your location. We may also change the technologies used as the website, security requirements, services or legal obligations develop. This policy provides general information rather than a fixed list of every cookie that may be active at a particular time.

Why cookies may be used

Cookies and similar technologies may support the operation, security and improvement of the Candy96 Casino website. Some cookies are necessary for a requested service to work, while others are optional and help us understand how visitors use the website or remember choices. The categories below describe common purposes for which cookies may be used.

Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies may be used to provide core website functions. They can support page navigation, account sessions, secure areas, authentication, fraud prevention, load balancing and the delivery of information requested by a visitor. These cookies may also help maintain the stability and security of the website. Because they support essential services, they may not be available for disabling through every preference tool. Blocking them may mean that some pages or account features do not operate correctly.

Functionality and preference cookies

Functionality cookies may remember choices made during a visit. Examples can include language, display preferences, regional settings, notification choices or other selections used to make the website more convenient. These cookies can reduce the need to enter the same information repeatedly. If they are disabled or removed, preferences may not be retained and some settings may need to be selected again during later visits.

Analytics and performance cookies

Analytics and performance technologies may provide information about how visitors use the website. This may include the pages viewed, links selected, the way visitors move between pages, the time spent on pages, whether content loads properly and whether an error occurs. The information may help us understand general usage patterns, identify technical issues and improve website content, design and performance. Where possible, analytics information may be aggregated or otherwise presented in a form that does not directly identify an individual.

Security and risk-management technologies

Cookies may help protect the website, accounts and users from unauthorised access, automated abuse, suspicious activity and other security risks. They may assist with checking sessions, detecting unusual behaviour, preventing misuse and supporting appropriate access controls. Removing or blocking security-related technologies may affect our ability to provide certain services safely or to identify activity that could place the website or users at risk.

Advertising and marketing technologies

Where used and permitted, advertising or marketing technologies may help measure communications, understand whether content has been viewed, limit repeated advertising or present information that may be more relevant to a visitor. These technologies may be provided by Candy96 Casino or by service providers acting on its behalf. They do not override applicable age restrictions, legal requirements, responsible gambling measures or communication preferences.

Third-party cookies and services

Some parts of the website may rely on third-party service providers. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver hosting, security, analytics, payment-related functionality, customer support, communications, technical maintenance or other services. The providers may process information under their own privacy and cookie notices, as well as under the instructions or arrangements that apply to the services they provide.

Information collected by a third-party technology may include an online identifier, device information, browser type, operating system, approximate location, pages visited, date and time of access, referral information or interactions with a particular feature. The information available to a provider will depend on the technology, the service being delivered, your settings and the provider's own practices.

A third-party cookie does not necessarily mean that the provider can identify you by name. However, information collected through different services may sometimes be combined or associated with other information by that provider. You should review the relevant provider's privacy information if you want to understand how it collects, uses, stores or shares information.

The website may include links to external websites, applications or services. When you follow an external link or use a service that is not operated by Candy96 Casino, that service may place its own cookies and collect information under its own terms. This Cookies Policy does not govern external websites or services, and we recommend reviewing their privacy information before using them.

We expect service providers to handle information appropriately and to use it for legitimate technical, business, security, measurement or service purposes. Nevertheless, third-party services may change over time and are not controlled entirely by Candy96 Casino. The availability and operation of a third-party feature may also depend on your device, browser and consent settings.

Managing cookies and your choices

Depending on the website features available to you and the requirements that apply in your location, you may be able to accept, reject or adjust optional cookie categories through a consent banner, preference panel or similar tool. Your choices may be stored so the website can remember them. Where the relevant controls are available, you can return to the preference tool and change your choices later.

You can also manage cookies through your internet browser or device settings. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, remove existing cookies, block cookies from particular websites, block third-party cookies or request confirmation before cookies are placed. The steps vary between browsers and devices, so you should consult the help or support information for the browser or device you use.

• Deleting cookies may remove saved preferences, end active sessions or require information to be entered again.
• Blocking all cookies may prevent pages, account functions, security controls or other services from working as intended.
• Disabling analytics cookies may not stop technical or security information from being collected where that information is needed to operate or protect the website.
• Changing settings in one browser or on one device will not automatically change settings for your other browsers or devices.
• Private or incognito browsing may remove certain cookies when the private session ends, depending on your browser settings.
• Some websites may not respond to every browser-based preference signal, so additional controls may be required.

Where consent is required for optional cookies, an appropriate consent mechanism will be provided. Refusing optional cookies should not prevent access to information that can reasonably be provided without them, although some personalisation, convenience or measurement features may be reduced. Necessary cookies may still be used when they are required to provide a service you request, maintain security, remember a consent choice or comply with a legal obligation.

If you use an account or access gambling-related features, changing cookie settings may affect the way you sign in, move between pages or use particular functions. If a feature does not work after you change your settings, you may need to allow necessary cookies, refresh the page or review your browser settings. You should not provide passwords or payment information through an unsecured browser prompt.

Privacy, retention and changes to this policy

Cookies may collect information about a device, browser, visit or online activity. In some circumstances, that information may be treated as personal information under applicable privacy requirements. Our Privacy Policy explains how personal information may be collected, used, disclosed, stored and protected, as well as the choices and rights that may be available to you.

The period for which a cookie remains on a device depends on its purpose and configuration. Session cookies generally expire when a browser session ends. Persistent cookies may remain until they reach an expiry date or are deleted through browser, device or website controls. Retention may depend on technical requirements, security needs, consent choices, service arrangements and applicable legal or regulatory obligations.

We aim to retain information obtained through cookies and similar technologies only for as long as reasonably required for the purpose for which it was collected, for legitimate operational needs or where a longer period is required or permitted by law. The expiry of a cookie does not necessarily mean that all related information has been immediately deleted from other systems, where that information is held for a separate legitimate purpose.

Candy96 Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time. An update may reflect changes to website features, the technologies used, service providers, security practices or applicable legal and operational requirements. The updated policy will be made available on the website and will apply from the date stated in the updated version, where a date is provided.

Where a material change to optional cookies requires renewed consent or a new preference, an appropriate notice or consent mechanism may be provided. Continuing to use the website after an updated policy is published means that you can review the revised information. Your browser and website preference controls remain available for managing optional cookies where those controls are offered.

Questions and further information

If you have a question about this Cookies Policy, your cookie choices or the handling of personal information, please use the customer support or contact options made available through the Candy96 Casino website. When making an enquiry, provide enough information for your request to be understood, but do not send passwords, full payment details or other sensitive information unless it is specifically requested through a secure process.

This policy is intended to provide general information about cookies and similar technologies used in connection with the website. It does not replace the Privacy Policy, account terms, responsible gambling information or any other conditions that govern the use of Candy96 Casino services. If there is a conflict between this policy and a specific notice shown for a particular feature, the specific notice may apply to that feature.
