Cookies Policy

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website may place on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or other device. They are stored by your web browser and can help a website recognise your device when you return. Cookies do not normally identify you by name on their own. However, information collected through cookies may be linked with other information where this is permitted and necessary for a particular purpose.

Q7 Casino may also use similar technologies, including pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage and other tools that collect or store information on a device. In this policy, we use the term cookies to cover cookies and these similar technologies unless a distinction is required.

Cookies can be temporary or persistent. Session cookies are generally removed when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. The length of time a cookie remains available depends on its purpose, your browser settings and the settings applied by the relevant service provider.

Some cookies may be set by Q7 Casino, while others may be set by third parties that provide services for the website. Third-party cookies may help with functions such as security, performance measurement, website analysis, content delivery or advertising. We aim to use these technologies in a responsible way and in accordance with applicable privacy and gambling requirements.

2. Types of cookies we may use

Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies support the basic operation, security and accessibility of the website. They may help the website load correctly, maintain a secure connection, remember information needed during a session, detect unusual activity and protect forms or account-related functions. These cookies are generally required for core website features and may not be switched off through a standard cookie preference tool.

Functional or preference cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make. For example, they may remember a language, region, display preference, cookie preference or other setting. These cookies can make the website easier to use by reducing the need to repeat the same selections. If you refuse or delete them, some preferences may not be retained and certain features may operate less conveniently.

Analytics and performance cookies

Analytics cookies may help us understand how visitors use the website. They can provide information such as which pages are viewed, how visitors move through the website, whether pages load correctly and whether content is useful. This information is generally used in an aggregated or pseudonymised form to improve website performance, navigation, content and reliability.

Marketing and advertising cookies

Where used and permitted, marketing cookies may help measure campaigns, understand the effectiveness of advertising and present information that is more relevant to a visitor. These cookies may allow a service provider to recognise a browser or device across different websites or services. Marketing cookies are not required for the basic operation of the website, and your available choices may depend on the country, device and consent settings that apply.

Security, fraud prevention and compliance technologies

Cookies and similar technologies may be used to help protect the website, accounts and users from fraud, abuse, automated attacks and other harmful activity. They may also support age, identity, responsible gambling, legal or regulatory controls where those controls apply. Information collected for these purposes may be assessed together with other information held for security, compliance or account administration.

3. Why we use cookies

Depending on how you use the website and the features available to you, Q7 Casino may use cookies for the following purposes:

• To provide, operate and maintain website functions and services.
• To keep sessions secure and help prevent unauthorised access, fraud, misuse and technical attacks.
• To remember your settings, preferences and choices, including cookie preferences.
• To understand website traffic, usage patterns, navigation and technical performance.
• To identify errors and improve the design, content, accessibility and reliability of the website.
• To measure the performance of communications, promotions or advertising where this activity is permitted.
• To support responsible gambling, age and identity checks, account protection and other compliance processes where applicable.
• To produce statistical information that helps us make informed business and website decisions.
• To provide relevant information and avoid showing content that is repetitive or unsuitable for your selected preferences.

Cookie information may be combined with information you provide directly, information generated when you use the website and information received from service providers. We only use and share this information for legitimate business, operational, security, compliance or marketing purposes that are permitted under applicable law and your choices.

Some website functions may not work properly if cookies are disabled. For example, the website may not remember your selections, security checks may need to be repeated, or pages may not display as intended. Disabling optional cookies should not normally prevent access to basic public content, but the result may vary according to your browser, device and the function concerned.

4. Managing your cookie choices

When required, the website may show a cookie banner or preference tool that allows you to accept, refuse or manage optional cookies. Your selections may be stored in a cookie or similar technology so that the website can remember them. If you delete that preference cookie, change devices or use another browser, you may be asked to make your choices again.

You can also control cookies through your browser or device settings. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, block certain cookies, block all cookies, delete cookies when you close the browser or receive a notification before a cookie is stored. Instructions differ between browsers and devices, so you should review the help or privacy settings provided by the manufacturer or browser operator.

1. Open the privacy, security or site settings in your browser.
2. Review the available cookie controls and stored website data.
3. Choose whether to allow, block or delete cookies, including third-party cookies where that option is available.
4. Revisit the settings after browser updates, device changes or the installation of privacy extensions.

You may be able to manage some advertising preferences through tools provided by advertising networks, operating systems or industry organisations. These controls may not remove advertising altogether. Instead, they may reduce personalised advertising or change how it is selected. Turning off a cookie does not necessarily delete information that was collected before the change, and it may not affect information collected through other technologies.

If you use more than one browser or device, you may need to apply your preferences separately on each one. Private browsing, tracker blocking and similar settings may also affect website functions. We cannot guarantee that every third-party cookie or tracking technology will be controlled by the settings offered by your browser.

5. Third parties, privacy and policy updates

Q7 Casino may work with carefully selected service providers that assist with website hosting, security, analytics, customer support, communications, advertising, payment-related functions or other business operations. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies on our behalf, or may process information collected through their own services. Their use of information may be governed by their own privacy notices and terms.

Third-party services can change over time. As a result, the specific cookies, names, providers and retention periods used on the website may also change. Where appropriate, information about available cookies may be presented through the website's cookie preference tool. A provider may also update its own documentation or controls without notice to us.

Cookie information may include device identifiers, browser type, operating system, IP address, approximate location, pages visited, referral information, session details, interaction data and preference information. The information collected depends on the cookie and the settings that apply. We take reasonable steps to protect information and limit access, but no online service or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Our Privacy Policy explains in more detail how personal information may be collected, used, disclosed, stored and protected, as well as the rights and choices that may be available to you under applicable Australian privacy law. If there is any inconsistency between this Cookies Policy and the Privacy Policy about the handling of personal information, the Privacy Policy will apply to that issue.

We may update this Cookies Policy when our website, technologies, business practices or legal obligations change. The latest version will be made available on this page, with the updated date shown where appropriate. You should review this page from time to time. Continuing to use the website after an update may indicate that you have read the revised policy, subject to any consent required by law.

If you have questions about this Cookies Policy or wish to exercise a privacy choice, please use the contact or support channel made available through the Q7 Casino website. We will handle requests in accordance with applicable law and may need to verify your identity before responding.
