Cookies Policy | Dolly Casino

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website may place on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or another device. They allow a website to recognise a browser or device and remember information about a visit. Cookies can help a website operate, improve performance, support security controls and provide a more consistent experience when you return.

Dolly Casino may also use technologies that operate in a similar way to cookies. These may include pixels, tags, software development kits, browser storage, application storage and device-related identifiers. In this policy, the word cookies includes these similar technologies unless a different meaning is stated.

Some cookies may be placed directly by Dolly Casino. Other cookies may be placed by service providers that support website hosting, analytics, security, communications, advertising measurement or other functions. The information collected through these technologies may sometimes be linked with information you provide directly, depending on how you use the website and the choices available to you.

Cookies do not usually contain information such as your password in plain text. However, some cookies may contain a unique identifier or other information associated with your browser or device. Cookie information may therefore be treated as personal information where it identifies, or could reasonably be linked to, an individual.

Cookies may be session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies are generally used during a single browsing session and may be removed when the session ends. Persistent cookies may remain on your device for a period of time or until you delete them through your browser or device settings.

2. Types of cookies we may use

Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies may be needed for the website to provide core functions. They can support account access, session management, fraud prevention, security controls, responsible access processes, page navigation and other basic features. Without these cookies, some parts of the website may not work properly. Because they support essential functions, they may not always be able to be switched off through the website preference tool.

Functionality cookies

Functionality cookies help remember choices you make, such as language, region, display settings or other preferences. They can make future visits more convenient and help the website provide features that reflect your selections. If you reject these cookies, some preferences may not be saved and you may need to enter them again during later visits.

Performance and analytics cookies

Performance and analytics cookies may collect information about how visitors use the website. This may include the pages viewed, time spent on a page, links selected, general location information, device type, browser type and technical events such as loading errors. The information is generally used to understand website performance, identify problems, improve navigation and assess how content is used.

Advertising and marketing cookies

Where used and permitted, advertising or marketing cookies may help measure the effectiveness of campaigns, limit repeated advertising, understand visits from promotional sources or show content that is more relevant to a visitor. These cookies may be provided by third parties and may involve information about browsing activity across websites or digital services. You may be able to refuse these cookies through the preference tool or your browser settings.

Security and compliance technologies

Dolly Casino may use cookies or similar technologies to help protect the website, detect unusual activity, support identity and age-related checks, prevent misuse and maintain the integrity of online services. These technologies may be used alongside other security and compliance measures. Blocking them may affect access to certain functions or services.

3. Why cookies are used

The purposes for using cookies may vary according to the page you visit, the device or browser you use, the services available to you and the preferences you select. In general, cookies and similar technologies may be used for the following purposes:

To keep the website secure and support the prevention of unauthorised activity.
To remember information during a visit so that pages and features work correctly.
To support sign-in, account sessions and other functions requested by you.
To understand how the website is used and identify areas that may need improvement.
To test website features, monitor technical performance and investigate errors.
To remember preferences and provide a more consistent experience.
To measure the performance of communications, promotions or advertising where applicable.
To help maintain records of cookie choices and other privacy preferences.
To support operational, legal, regulatory, security and responsible gambling requirements where relevant.

The information collected through cookies may be combined with information from other sources for these purposes where permitted. Dolly Casino may use aggregated or de-identified information for reporting, analysis, security and service improvement. Information that is no longer reasonably capable of identifying a person may be used for statistical or operational purposes.

Cookies may also help Dolly Casino understand whether website content is clear, whether technical functions are working as intended and whether visitors encounter difficulties when moving between pages. This information can support maintenance, troubleshooting and improvements to the overall online experience.

Cookie information is not intended to replace other security, identity, age or responsible gambling processes. Where those processes apply, cookies may be one of several technical tools used to support them.

4. Managing your cookie choices

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie notice or preference tool. This may allow you to accept optional cookies, reject optional cookies or select particular categories. Your choices may be stored in a cookie or similar technology so that the preference tool does not ask the same question on every visit.

You can usually change your preferences by returning to the cookie settings available on the website. If a preference tool is not available on a particular page, you can also manage cookies through your browser or device settings. The exact steps depend on the browser, operating system and device you use.

Set your browser to block all cookies, accept cookies only from particular websites, or notify you before a cookie is stored.
Delete cookies that have already been placed on your device through your browser settings.
Use private or incognito browsing features, while recognising that these may not block every form of tracking technology.
Review advertising, analytics or permissions settings through your device or browser where those controls are available.
Return to the website's preference tool to change your selections where that tool is provided.

If you block or delete cookies, some website features may not operate as intended. You may be signed out, lose saved preferences, see less relevant content or need to repeat certain steps. Blocking optional cookies should not normally prevent access to basic website content, but the effect can vary according to the cookie and the service involved.

Your browser settings may affect all websites you visit, not only Dolly Casino. If you use more than one browser or device, you may need to manage your choices separately on each one. For guidance on managing cookies, refer to the help or privacy information provided by your browser or device manufacturer.

Some devices also offer controls for restricting tracking, advertising identifiers or permissions granted to applications. These controls may operate separately from the cookie preference tool on the website. Changing device-level settings may affect other websites or applications and may not remove information that has already been collected.

5. Third-party services, privacy and policy updates

Some features on the website may be supported by third-party providers. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver services such as website measurement, security, technical hosting, communications, payment-related functions or advertising measurement. Third parties may process information in accordance with their own privacy notices and terms. Dolly Casino does not control every cookie or technology used by an independent provider.

Third-party cookies may be subject to different retention periods and may operate across more than one website or digital service. Where appropriate, information about relevant providers may be shown in the website's cookie preference tool or other privacy information. You should review the relevant third party's privacy notice if you want to understand how that provider handles information.

Cookie information may be used with other personal information in accordance with the Dolly Casino Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy explains more about the types of personal information that may be collected, how information may be used or disclosed, how it may be protected, and the choices and rights that may be available to you under applicable Australian privacy requirements.

Dolly Casino may retain cookie information for different periods depending on its purpose. Session cookies are generally removed when a browsing session ends, while persistent cookies may remain on a device for a set period or until they are deleted. Retention may depend on operational, security, legal, regulatory and record-keeping needs.

This Cookies Policy may be reviewed and updated from time to time to reflect changes to the website, technology, service providers, legal requirements or privacy practices. The updated version will be made available on this page and may show an applicable update date. You should check this page periodically for the latest information.

If you have a question about this Cookies Policy or want to raise a privacy concern, use the contact or support option made available on the Dolly Casino website. Please do not send passwords, payment details or other sensitive information through an unsecured message. Nothing in this policy limits any rights or protections available to you under applicable Australian law.

If this policy conflicts with a mandatory requirement of applicable law, that legal requirement will apply to the extent of the conflict. The remaining parts of this policy will continue to apply. Any consent or preference you provide through the website concerns the use of cookies and similar technologies as described here and does not replace any separate consent, verification or account requirements that may apply.
