Candyland Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Candyland Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use its online casino services in Australia. It describes what these technologies do, the categories that may be used, and the choices available to you.
Cookies can support essential website functions, improve performance, remember preferences and help Candyland Casino present more relevant information. This policy should be read together with the other policies and terms available on the Candyland Casino website. The services are intended for persons aged 18 and over.
Understanding Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device during a visit or on a later occasion. Cookies cannot normally be used to read unrelated files on your device or directly identify you by name.
Some cookies are created by Candyland Casino, while others may be set by service providers that support website functionality, analytics, security or advertising activities. Cookies can be session-based, meaning they expire when you close your browser, or persistent, meaning they remain for a defined period unless you delete them earlier.
Candyland Casino may also use similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, local storage or software development tools. These technologies can collect information about how a website or message is accessed and are treated as cookies for the purposes of this policy where appropriate.
Cookie Categories
The cookies used on the Candyland Casino website can generally be grouped into the following categories. A single cookie may support more than one purpose, and the specific technologies used may change as the website develops.
- Essential cookies help the website operate securely and provide services you request.
- Performance cookies collect information about website use so that pages and features can be assessed and improved.
- Functional cookies remember selected settings and support a more personalised experience.
- Marketing cookies may help measure campaigns or display information that is more relevant to your interests.
The availability of optional cookie categories may depend on the device, browser, website area and consent choices you make. Where applicable, Candyland Casino will provide information about optional cookies through a consent tool or similar notice.
Cookies We Need
Essential cookies are required for core website functions. They may help Candyland Casino maintain secure sessions, process navigation requests, protect pages from misuse and support account or transaction-related features. Without these cookies, parts of the website may not work correctly or may not be available.
These cookies can also help the website remember information needed while you move between pages. For example, they may support access controls, fraud prevention, load balancing, security monitoring and the technical delivery of requested content.
Because essential cookies support services that you ask the website to provide, they may not be disabled through ordinary preference controls. You can usually configure your browser to block them, but doing so may prevent you from logging in, using account features, completing a transaction or accessing parts of the Candyland Casino platform.
Performance and Analytics
Performance cookies help Candyland Casino understand how visitors use the website. They may record information such as the pages visited, approximate time spent on a page, navigation paths, error messages and the type of device or browser used.
This information is generally assessed in aggregated or pseudonymous form where possible. It can help identify technical problems, measure page performance, understand which features are useful and prioritise improvements. Performance cookies do not need to be used to provide every basic website function.
Where performance technologies are supplied by a third party, that provider may process information in accordance with its own privacy documentation and the arrangements in place with Candyland Casino. Optional analytics cookies may be controlled through the website's cookie settings where such controls are available.
Functional Features
Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced features. They may save preferences such as language, region, display settings, selected options or other information that helps the website respond to your previous choices.
These cookies can make visits more convenient by reducing the need to repeat the same selections. They may also help Candyland Casino deliver content in a way that is more suitable for your device or browser.
If you decline functional cookies, the website may still be usable, but certain preferences may not be retained. You may need to select your settings again during a later visit, and some enhanced features may not operate in the same way.
Marketing and Advertising
Marketing cookies may be used to understand the effectiveness of promotional activity, limit how often an advertisement is shown or help deliver advertising and other communications that are more relevant to your interests. They may also help Candyland Casino measure visits that result from a campaign or referral.
Some marketing technologies may be placed by advertising, measurement or social media partners. These providers may use information collected across different websites or services, subject to their own policies and the choices available through their platforms.
Candyland Casino does not intend marketing cookies to replace responsible gambling safeguards or determine whether a person is legally entitled to use gambling services. Promotional activity remains subject to applicable account controls, age requirements and responsible gambling measures. You must be at least 18 years old to use the Candyland Casino services.
Where consent is required for optional marketing technologies, they should not be activated until you have made the relevant choice. You can withdraw or change that choice through the available cookie settings or by adjusting your browser controls.
Controlling Your Choices
You can manage cookies in several ways. When a cookie preference tool is shown, you may accept or reject available optional categories, subject to the operation of essential cookies. If your preferences are stored in a cookie, deleting cookies may cause the preference tool to appear again.
Your web browser may also allow you to block cookies, delete existing cookies, receive a warning before a cookie is stored or restrict cookies to particular websites. The steps differ between browsers and devices, so you should consult the relevant browser help information.
- Blocking all cookies may affect account access, security features and website performance.
- Deleting cookies does not necessarily remove information already processed by a service provider.
- Cookie settings may need to be repeated on different browsers or devices.
- Opting out of marketing cookies does not mean that you will see no advertising.
- Essential cookies may continue to operate because they support requested website functions.
Some mobile devices provide separate controls for advertising identifiers, tracking permissions and app-based technologies. Those controls are managed through the device operating system rather than the Candyland Casino website.
Cookies From Other Providers
Third-party cookies may be used when Candyland Casino relies on an external provider for services such as security, analytics, video, payment support, website performance, advertising or technical delivery. A third party may set cookies directly through its tools or receive information generated when those tools operate on the website.
The use of a third-party cookie does not mean that Candyland Casino controls all of the provider's processing activities. Third parties may have their own cookie notices and privacy policies, which explain their practices, retention periods and available controls. You should review those materials where you want more information about a particular provider.
Third-party technologies may change over time as service providers are introduced, removed or replaced. Candyland Casino takes reasonable steps to work with providers that support the website's operational and compliance needs, but the exact cookies available may depend on the services active at a particular time.
Changes to This Policy
Candyland Casino may update this Cookies Policy when its website, technologies, business processes or legal and regulatory environment changes. An updated version will be published on the relevant website page, with the revised date shown where appropriate.
Changes may include new cookie categories, different service providers, revised explanations of how information is used or updated instructions for managing preferences. You should review this policy periodically, particularly when returning to the Candyland Casino website after a significant period.
Continuing to use the website after an update may mean that you have read the revised policy. Where the law or the nature of the change requires a new consent choice, Candyland Casino will provide an appropriate notice or preference mechanism. If you have questions about this policy, please use the Candyland Casino contact page.
