Cookies Policy

This Cookies Policy explains how Whackaus Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use its website. It describes what cookies are, why they may be used, the choices available to you and how these technologies may support website functionality, security, analytics and marketing. This policy should be read together with the applicable Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions.

Whackaus Casino holds two licences issued by the Curaçao gaming authorities - one under the CGA and one under the GC - providing a regulated framework for player account security and game integrity.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files or similar data files that may be placed on your computer, tablet, mobile phone or other device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise a device, remember certain information and provide a more consistent experience when you return. Cookies do not usually contain information that directly identifies you, although information associated with a cookie may sometimes be linked with personal information held by the website.

Whackaus Casino may also use technologies that perform a similar function to cookies. These may include pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage and device identifiers. In this policy, we use the term cookies to include cookies and similar technologies unless stated otherwise.

Cookies may be set by Whackaus Casino, or by third-party service providers that support website operations and other online services. Some cookies are stored only for the duration of your browsing session. Others remain on your device for a longer period or until you remove them. The length of time a cookie remains may depend on its purpose and the settings of your browser or device.

Types of cookies

Session cookies are temporary and are generally deleted when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you remove them.
First-party cookies are placed by the website you are visiting.
Third-party cookies are placed by a service provider operating on behalf of, or separately from, the website.

2. How Whackaus Casino may use cookies

Cookies may be used for several different purposes. The specific cookies used on the website may change as features, systems and services develop. Some cookies are necessary for the website to operate, while others are optional and may be used only when you provide an appropriate choice or consent.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies may be needed to provide core website functions. They can help with account access, secure sessions, navigation, fraud prevention, network management and the delivery of pages or services you request. Without these cookies, certain parts of the website may not work correctly. Because they are important to the operation or security of the website, they may not be available for deactivation through every cookie preference tool.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies may remember choices you make, such as language, region, display preferences or other settings. They can help provide a more convenient and consistent experience. If you decline these cookies, the website may still be available, but some preferences may need to be entered again or certain features may operate in a more limited way.

Analytics and performance cookies

Analytics cookies may help Whackaus Casino understand how visitors use the website. They can provide information about pages visited, links selected, loading performance, general traffic patterns and possible technical issues. This information may be used in an aggregated or otherwise protected form to improve website design, content, accessibility, reliability and performance. Analytics information is not intended to provide a personal gambling assessment unless this is explained in the relevant privacy information.

Security and compliance cookies

Cookies and similar technologies may assist with security checks, account protection, prevention of unauthorised activity, responsible access controls and compliance processes. They may help identify unusual activity or support the integrity of the website and its services. These technologies may operate alongside other verification and security measures.

Advertising and marketing cookies

Where used and permitted, marketing cookies may help measure the effectiveness of advertising, limit repeated advertisements, understand general interactions with promotional content and deliver more relevant communications. These cookies may be provided by third parties. You may be able to refuse or manage them through the cookie preference tool, your browser settings or controls offered by the relevant third party.

3. Your choices and managing cookies

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie banner or preference tool. This may allow you to accept optional cookies, reject optional cookies or choose categories of cookies. Your preferences may be saved for a period of time so that you are not asked to make the same choice on every visit. If you delete cookies, use a different browser or use another device, you may need to set your preferences again.

You can also manage cookies through your browser or device settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, block or restrict cookies. The available controls differ between browsers and devices, so you should check the relevant help or support information for instructions. You may also be able to control certain third-party cookies through the settings or opt-out tools provided by the third party.

Use the cookie preference controls made available on the website, where offered.
Adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies.
Clear stored website data from your device.
Use available controls provided by third-party analytics or advertising services.

Blocking all cookies may affect the way the website works. You may be unable to sign in, maintain a secure session, use account functions or access certain features. For this reason, disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent some or all of the website from operating as intended. Managing optional cookies should generally have a more limited effect, although some preferences, content or features may not be available.

Cookie choices do not necessarily control other forms of data collection. For example, information supplied when creating or using an account, information required for security or legal obligations, and information collected through other systems may continue to be handled under the Privacy Policy and applicable laws.

4. Privacy, third parties and policy updates

Information collected through cookies may be combined with other information where reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, the Privacy Policy or the operation of the website. This may include information about your device, browser, approximate location, website activity, account interactions and technical events. Whackaus Casino aims to handle information responsibly and in accordance with applicable privacy requirements.

Some cookies may be placed or accessed by third-party providers. These providers may process information under their own privacy policies and terms. Third-party services may include providers supporting hosting, security, analytics, customer service, payment functionality, communications or advertising. Whackaus Casino does not control every third-party technology, and you should review the relevant provider information where you want to understand its practices or available controls.

The website may contain links to external websites or services. This Cookies Policy does not apply to websites that Whackaus Casino does not operate. External websites may use their own cookies and similar technologies, and their practices may differ from those described here. You should review the privacy and cookie information provided by those websites before using them.

Whackaus Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, website features, legal requirements or the way cookies are used. The updated version will apply when it is published on the website unless a different effective date is stated. You should review this page periodically to remain informed. Where appropriate, a new cookie preference request may be displayed after a significant change.

Questions and privacy requests

If you have questions about this Cookies Policy, your cookie choices or the handling of personal information, please use the contact or privacy request options made available on the Whackaus Casino website. Do not include unnecessary sensitive information in a message. Requests may need to be reviewed to protect account security and verify the identity of the person making the request.

By continuing to use the website after reviewing this policy, you acknowledge that cookies and similar technologies may be used as described here, subject to the choices and controls available to you. Your use of the website remains subject to the applicable Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy and responsible gambling information.
