Uptown Pokies Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Uptown Pokies Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use our website. It describes what these technologies do, the categories we may use, and the choices available to you.
Cookies can help Uptown Pokies Casino operate reliably, remember selected preferences, understand website performance and provide content that is more relevant to visitors. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions. Uptown Pokies Casino is intended for people aged 18 and over in Australia.
Understanding Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or other device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise a device and retain limited information about browsing activity. Cookies do not normally contain information that directly identifies you, although information associated with a cookie may sometimes be linked to account or device data.
Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage and other tools that collect or remember information about how a website is used. In this policy, we use the term “cookies” to cover cookies and these related technologies unless a specific distinction is necessary.
Cookies may be set by Uptown Pokies Casino or by carefully selected service providers working on our behalf. They can be temporary, meaning they expire when you close your browser, or persistent, meaning they remain on your device for a defined period or until you remove them.
Cookie Categories We Use
The cookies used on the Uptown Pokies Casino website may be grouped into the following categories. Some cookies can support more than one purpose, and the precise cookies available may change as our website and services develop.
- Essential cookies support core website functions, account access and security.
- Performance cookies help us measure visits, diagnose errors and improve website operation.
- Functional cookies remember choices and provide a more personalised experience.
- Marketing cookies may help measure campaigns and display more relevant promotional content.
Where required, we will seek consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. You can also manage certain cookie choices through your browser or any cookie preference tool made available on the website.
Cookies Needed for Operation
Essential cookies are necessary for the website or important features to work as intended. Without them, services such as secure sign-in, account navigation, responsible gaming settings or transaction-related processes may not function properly.
These cookies may be used to:
- Maintain a secure session while you move between pages.
- Support account authentication and access controls.
- Remember information needed to complete a requested process.
- Detect unusual activity, protect the platform and help prevent fraud.
- Apply security, age-related and compliance controls where relevant.
- Route website requests correctly across technical systems.
Essential cookies are generally enabled because disabling them may prevent access to parts of the website or affect basic functionality. They are not intended to create a profile of your interests for advertising purposes.
Measuring Website Performance
Performance cookies collect information about how visitors use the Uptown Pokies Casino website. They help us understand which pages are visited, how users move through the site, whether pages load correctly and where technical improvements may be needed.
The information may include browser type, device information, approximate location derived from technical data, referring pages, visit duration and interactions with website features. Where possible, this information is used in an aggregated or otherwise limited form rather than to identify individual visitors directly.
Performance information can help us:
- Identify slow, unavailable or malfunctioning pages.
- Assess the effectiveness and usability of website features.
- Monitor traffic patterns and general visitor demand.
- Test changes before making them available more widely.
- Improve stability, accessibility and overall website performance.
These cookies are not designed to determine the outcome of games or influence gameplay. Their purpose is to help Uptown Pokies Casino maintain and improve its digital services.
Remembering Your Preferences
Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide features that are more convenient. They may recognise preferences relating to language, region, display settings, notification choices or other elements of your browsing experience.
Examples of functional uses may include remembering that you have viewed a notice, preserving selected settings during a visit or presenting the website in a way that is more suitable for your device. These cookies can reduce the need to repeat the same selections each time you return.
If you refuse or remove functional cookies, some preferences may not be retained. The website should remain available in its essential form, but certain features may be less convenient or may require you to make the same choice again.
Promotional and Advertising Cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to understand the effectiveness of promotional activity and to help present advertising or offers that are more relevant to visitors. They may record visits to the website, interactions with promotional content or the source through which a visitor arrived.
Depending on the tools in use, marketing cookies may support:
- Measuring visits generated by a campaign or referral.
- Limiting how often a particular promotion is shown.
- Understanding whether promotional content has been viewed or selected.
- Building a broader picture of advertising performance.
- Showing content that may be more relevant to a visitor’s interests.
Marketing cookies should not be used to override account restrictions, responsible gaming measures, eligibility checks or other controls applied by Uptown Pokies Casino. We do not intend these technologies to encourage play that is unsuitable for an individual. Visitors should consider their own preferences and applicable consent choices before allowing marketing cookies.
Controlling Your Cookie Choices
You can manage cookies in several ways. If a cookie banner or preference centre is displayed on the Uptown Pokies Casino website, it may allow you to accept, refuse or adjust non-essential cookie categories. Your selections may be stored in a preference cookie so that they are remembered on future visits.
Most browsers also allow you to:
- View cookies stored on your device.
- Delete existing cookies.
- Block cookies from particular websites.
- Block third-party cookies.
- Require permission before a cookie is placed.
- Delete cookies automatically when the browser is closed.
Browser controls differ between devices and software providers. You should consult the settings or support information for your chosen browser if you need assistance. Blocking all cookies may affect website availability, account access, security functions and the way certain pages operate.
Removing cookies does not necessarily erase other information already held by Uptown Pokies Casino or a service provider. It may also reset your preferences, meaning that a consent prompt or sign-in request could appear again. Cookie choices made on one browser or device may not apply to another.
Cookies Set by Others
Some cookies may be placed by third-party providers whose services are integrated into the website. These providers may support functions such as security, analytics, performance monitoring, payment-related processes, content delivery or campaign measurement.
Third parties may process information under their own privacy notices and cookie practices. Uptown Pokies Casino does not control every aspect of a third party’s technology, and the availability of third-party cookies may change as services are added, removed or updated. We take reasonable steps to use providers for legitimate business and operational purposes, but visitors should review relevant third-party information where it is available.
Third-party cookies do not give a provider permission to access your Uptown Pokies Casino account without appropriate authorisation. Account credentials and sensitive information should never be shared through an unsolicited link or unfamiliar website. If you notice unexpected activity, stop using the relevant page and review the security information available through the Uptown Pokies Casino website.
Changes to This Policy
Uptown Pokies Casino may update this Cookies Policy when our website, technologies, service providers or legal and compliance responsibilities change. Any revised version will be published on this page, with the updated date shown where appropriate.
A change may explain a new cookie category, amend the description of an existing technology or clarify how preferences can be managed. Where applicable, we will request consent again or provide an updated choice mechanism for cookies that require consent.
We encourage you to review this page periodically so that you remain informed about our use of cookies. If you have questions about this policy, please use the contact page on the Uptown Pokies Casino website.
