Cookies Policy | Bovada Casino

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or other device when you visit. They allow a website to recognise a device, remember certain information and support features that make the website work more effectively. Cookies may be placed by the website you are visiting, or by a third party providing services for that website.

Similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage and device identifiers, can perform functions comparable to cookies. In this policy, we use the term “cookies” to refer to cookies and these similar technologies unless we state otherwise.

Cookies do not usually contain information that directly identifies you, such as your name or full contact details. However, information collected through cookies may be linked with other information we hold about you. This may allow us to recognise your device, understand how you use our website and provide a more relevant experience.

Cookies can be either session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies are temporary and are removed when you close your browser or end your session. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. The length of time a cookie remains may vary depending on its purpose and the settings used by the relevant service.

2. How we use cookies

Bovada Casino may use cookies to operate, secure and improve its website and online services. The specific cookies used may change from time to time as our website, technology and service providers develop. Cookies may be used for the following purposes:

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for core website functions. They may support account access, session management, navigation, security controls, fraud prevention, responsible gambling features and the delivery of pages or services you request. Because these cookies are necessary for the website to function, they generally cannot be disabled through cookie preference tools. If you block them through your browser, some parts of the website may not operate correctly.

Functionality cookies

Functionality cookies help remember choices you make and provide a more convenient experience. For example, they may remember language, region, display or accessibility preferences. These cookies are not always essential, but disabling them may mean that certain preferences are not saved or that you need to make the same selections again.

Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. They may collect information such as which pages are visited, how long a page is viewed, how visitors move through the website and whether an error occurs. We use this information in an aggregated or otherwise appropriate form to monitor performance, identify problems, improve content and make the website easier to use.

Security and fraud prevention technologies

Cookies and related technologies may help detect unusual activity, protect accounts and transactions, prevent misuse and support compliance processes. These technologies may assess information about a device, browser, session or network connection. They do not guarantee that all fraudulent or unauthorised activity will be prevented, but they form part of our broader security measures.

Advertising and measurement cookies

Where used and where permitted, advertising or measurement technologies may help us understand the effectiveness of communications, campaigns or promotional content. They may record information about interactions with online content and may help limit repeated advertisements or measure general engagement. We aim to use these technologies in accordance with applicable privacy, gambling and advertising requirements.

3. Third-party cookies and services

Some cookies may be set by third parties that provide services on our behalf or support functions available through the website. These providers may include analytics, security, hosting, payment, customer support, content delivery or advertising technology providers. Third parties may process information collected through their technologies under their own privacy policies and terms.

We do not control every cookie or technology used by third parties, and their practices may change. Where appropriate, we take steps to select service providers that are expected to handle information responsibly and in accordance with applicable requirements. You should review the relevant third party’s privacy information if you want to understand how it collects and uses information.

Third-party content may also be available through links, embedded tools or features on the website. Visiting another website or using an external service is subject to that provider’s terms and privacy practices. Bovada Casino is not responsible for the cookie practices of websites or services that it does not operate.

Cookie information may be processed in Australia or in another country where Bovada Casino, its service providers or technology partners operate. Where information is handled outside Australia, appropriate steps may be taken to address applicable privacy obligations. The protections that apply in another jurisdiction may differ from those available in Australia.

4. Your cookie choices and browser controls

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie notice or preference tool. Where available, this tool allows you to accept optional cookies, reject optional cookies or adjust your choices by category. Your selection may be stored in a cookie so that the website can remember your preference. You can revisit the available preference tool if you wish to change your selection.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete individual cookies, block some or all cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is saved. The method differs between browsers and devices, so you should check the relevant browser or device instructions for guidance.

Deleting cookies may sign you out of websites and remove saved preferences.
Blocking all cookies may prevent some website functions from working correctly.
Changing browser settings on one device may not change settings on another device.
Some technologies may continue to operate through methods that are not controlled by ordinary browser cookie settings.
If you use more than one browser, you may need to update the settings in each browser.

Where the website provides a cookie preference tool, its controls may take priority for optional cookies placed through that tool. Strictly necessary cookies may still be used because they support essential functions, security and the delivery of services you request. Rejecting optional cookies does not necessarily stop all advertising or prevent you from seeing promotional content; it may instead mean that content is less tailored or that measurement is more limited.

Cookie choices are separate from responsible gambling choices. If you wish to take a break, set a restriction, close an account or seek support with gambling, use the responsible gambling tools and information made available through the website. Managing cookies will not suspend an account, prevent gambling activity or replace responsible gambling controls.

5. Changes to this Cookies Policy

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our website, technology, service providers, legal requirements or the way cookies are used. When changes are made, the updated version will be published on this page with a revised date or other appropriate notice where applicable. You should review this page periodically so that you remain informed about our use of cookies.

If a material change affects the choices available to you or the way information is handled, we may provide additional notice through the website or another appropriate channel. Continuing to use the website after an updated policy is published may indicate that you have read the updated information. Your rights under applicable Australian privacy law are not limited by this policy.

If you have questions about this Cookies Policy or want to exercise a privacy-related right, please use the contact or privacy request process made available on the website. We may need to verify your request before taking action. This helps protect accounts and personal information from unauthorised access.
