Cookies Policy

About cookies

Cookies are small text files or similar data files that are placed on your computer, tablet, mobile phone or other device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise a device and remember certain information about a visit. Some cookies are stored only for the duration of a browsing session, while others remain on a device for a longer period or until they are deleted.

Winport Casino may use cookies, pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage and related technologies. In this policy, we refer to these technologies collectively as cookies unless a distinction is needed. The technologies used may vary depending on the pages, account features, games, promotions and services available on the website.

Cookies do not usually identify you by name on their own. However, information collected through cookies may be combined with information connected to your account, device or use of our services. Where this occurs, the information may be treated as personal information under applicable privacy laws.

By using the website, you may encounter cookies placed by Winport Casino and cookies placed by third parties that provide services for, or work with, the website. Where required, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences through the available cookie controls or through your browser settings.

Types of cookies we may use

The cookies used on the website can serve different purposes. The exact cookies and their duration may change as the website, technology and services develop. The main categories are set out below.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies support the basic operation and security of the website. They may help you move between pages, sign in to an account, maintain a secure session, remember items or settings required for a transaction, and protect forms from misuse. They may also help us apply security controls, detect unusual activity and maintain the technical stability of the website.

Because these cookies are needed for core functions, disabling them may prevent parts of the website from working correctly. They do not generally require consent where applicable law recognises them as essential to providing a service requested by you.

Preference and functionality cookies

These cookies remember choices you make so that the website can provide a more consistent experience. For example, they may remember language, display, region, accessibility or other settings. They may also help us remember whether certain information has been shown to you, so that the same message is not repeatedly displayed during a visit.

Analytics and performance cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. They may record information such as the pages visited, links selected, the time spent on a page, the way a visitor arrived at the website and whether a page or function worked as expected. We use this information in an aggregated or otherwise controlled way to identify technical issues, improve navigation and assess the performance of our content.

Security, fraud prevention and compliance cookies

Some cookies and similar technologies may be used to protect accounts, transactions and the website from fraud, automated abuse, unauthorised access and other harmful activity. They may help us recognise a device, identify suspicious behaviour, support identity or account checks and meet our legal, security or responsible gambling obligations. These technologies may collect information about a device, browser, connection, session and activity on the website.

Advertising and marketing cookies

Where available and permitted, advertising or marketing cookies may help measure campaigns, understand interactions with promotional content and show information that is more relevant to your interests. They may also help limit repeated advertisements and measure whether an advertisement or referral has been effective. We will seek consent where required before using these cookies, and you can withdraw or change that consent through the available controls.

Cookies from third parties

Some functions of the website may be supported by third-party providers. These providers may use their own cookies or similar technologies to deliver services such as website analytics, security, payment processing, identity verification, customer support, game functionality, advertising measurement or referral tracking. A third party may be able to recognise your browser or device when its technology is used on the website.

Third-party cookies are controlled by the relevant third party and may be subject to that provider's own privacy policy and cookie policy. Winport Casino does not control every cookie placed by an external provider. We take reasonable steps to use service providers that are appropriate for the relevant function, but you should review the information provided by those providers if you want to understand how they handle data.

Links to external websites, social media features, payment pages or other services may also use their own technologies. When you leave the Winport Casino website or interact with an external service, the external provider's terms and privacy information may apply. This policy does not govern cookies used solely on websites that we do not operate.

Information collected through cookies may be used for legitimate business purposes, to provide a service you request, to comply with legal requirements or with your consent, depending on the type of cookie and the circumstances. We may use aggregated information to review website performance without trying to identify individual users.

Your cookie choices

When you first visit the website, a cookie notice or preference tool may allow you to accept, reject or customise certain categories of non-essential cookies. Your choices may be saved in a cookie or similar file so that the preference tool does not ask you the same question on every visit. You can revisit the available controls if you wish to change your selection.

You can also manage cookies through the settings of your web browser. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete existing cookies, block cookies from particular websites or block all cookies. Browser controls differ between providers, so you should check the help or settings area of your browser for instructions.

• Deleting cookies may remove saved preferences and may require you to sign in or make your choices again.
• Blocking all cookies may affect the availability, security or functionality of the website.
• Blocking analytics or marketing cookies should not normally prevent access to essential website functions, although some content may not operate as intended.
• Cookie settings may need to be updated separately on different browsers or devices.
• Some devices provide additional controls for advertising identifiers, tracking permissions or personalised content.

You may withdraw consent to non-essential cookies at any time where the relevant preference controls are available. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before your preference was changed. Essential cookies may continue to operate because they are necessary for the website or a service requested by you.

If you use the website without changing your settings, cookies that are necessary for operation may be used. Other cookies will be handled according to the choices made through the cookie notice, preference tool or browser settings, subject to applicable law.

How long cookies remain on your device

Cookies may be session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies are generally removed when you close your browser or end a browsing session. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. The retention period depends on the purpose of the cookie, the service provided and the settings used by Winport Casino or the relevant third-party provider.

We may review cookie lifetimes from time to time to ensure that information is not retained for longer than reasonably necessary for its purpose. Where a cookie is used for security, compliance, account or operational reasons, it may be retained for a period that supports those purposes and any related legal obligations.

The information collected through cookies may be combined with other website records where this is necessary to operate an account, investigate security issues, provide support, measure performance, meet legal requirements or protect the integrity of our services. The handling of personal information is explained in our Privacy Policy.

Changes to this Cookies Policy

We may update this Cookies Policy when our website, services, technologies or legal obligations change. An updated version will be published on this page with a revised date or other notice where appropriate. The updated policy will apply from the time it is published, unless a different effective date is stated.

We encourage you to review this page periodically so that you remain informed about how cookies and similar technologies are used. If a change requires renewed consent, we will provide an appropriate notice or preference option where required.

If you have questions about this Cookies Policy or want to understand how information collected through cookies is handled, please use the customer support or privacy contact channels made available on the Winport Casino website. Do not include unnecessary sensitive information in a message, particularly account passwords, payment details or identity documents.

This policy is intended to provide general information about cookies used in connection with the website. It does not replace the website's Privacy Policy, Terms and Conditions, responsible gambling information or any other applicable notice.
