Cookies Policy | Shazam Casino

About cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website may place on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or another device when you visit. They allow the website to recognise a device or remember information about a visit. Cookies can help a website function correctly, remember selected settings and provide information about how visitors use its pages.

We may also use technologies that perform a similar role, such as pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage and other online identifiers. In this policy, we use the word cookies to refer to cookies and these similar technologies unless we say otherwise.

Cookies may be set by Shazam Casino or by another service provider that supports website functions on our behalf. Some cookies are stored only for the duration of your visit and are deleted when you close your browser. Others remain on your device for a longer period, subject to their purpose, your browser settings and any consent choices you make.

A cookie does not usually identify you by name on its own. However, information collected through cookies may be connected with information relating to your account, device or website activity. Where this information is treated as personal information, we handle it in accordance with applicable privacy requirements and our Privacy Policy.

How cookies may be used

The types of cookies used on a website can change over time as features, security measures and services develop. Cookies may be used for the following general purposes:

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies support core website functions and may be needed for pages or services to operate as intended. They can help with navigation, session management, account access, security controls, fraud prevention and the delivery of information you request. Without these cookies, some parts of the website may not work properly.

Preference and functionality cookies

These cookies remember choices or settings so that the website can provide a more consistent experience. For example, they may remember language, region, display or consent preferences where those features are available. They may also help reduce the need for you to repeat the same selections during a visit.

Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. The information may include which pages are visited, how visitors move through the website, whether pages load correctly and whether certain functions are being used. This information can be reviewed in an aggregated or otherwise managed form to help improve content, usability, performance and reliability.

Security and risk management technologies

Cookies and related technologies may assist with protecting the website, accounts and services from suspicious activity, automated misuse, unauthorised access and other security risks. They may help us identify unusual patterns, maintain the integrity of sessions and support checks designed to protect players and the website.

Advertising and campaign measurement cookies

Where used and where permission is required, cookies may help measure the performance of online campaigns or show content that is more relevant to your interests. These technologies may record information about a browser or device and the way it interacts with a website or campaign. They do not necessarily identify you directly, and their use is subject to available controls and applicable requirements.

Remembering whether a cookie notice or preference choice has been displayed.
Supporting secure website sessions and account-related functions.
Understanding website traffic, errors and general performance.
Improving page design, content and navigation.
Helping detect unusual activity and support website security.
Measuring the effectiveness of communications or online campaigns where permitted.

Your cookie choices

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie notice or preference tool. This tool may allow you to accept optional cookies, reject them or select categories individually. Your available choices may depend on the type of device, browser, website version and the requirements that apply when you visit.

Strictly necessary cookies may continue to operate because they support essential website functions. If you reject or disable optional cookies, you should still be able to browse many parts of the website, but some features may be less personalised or may not work as expected.

You can also manage cookies through your browser or device settings. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete existing cookies, block cookies from some or all websites, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Instructions vary between browsers and devices, so you may need to check the relevant help or settings menu.

Deleting cookies may remove saved preferences and may require you to make certain selections again. Blocking cookies can also affect sign-in, navigation, security checks, website performance and other functions. If you use more than one browser or device, your settings may need to be updated separately on each one.

Some third-party services may provide their own tools for managing cookies or similar technologies. We do not control every setting offered by an external provider. You should review the provider's information if you want to understand or change how that provider handles its technologies.

Consent and withdrawal

Where consent is required, we will seek it before using optional cookies for the relevant purposes. You may be able to withdraw or change your choice at any time through the cookie preference tool or your browser settings. Withdrawal does not affect processing that took place before your choice was changed, and it may not remove information that has already been collected or retained for a lawful purpose.

Third parties, privacy and data security

Some cookies may be placed by service providers that help operate, secure, analyse or improve the website. These providers may process information such as browser type, device information, approximate location derived from technical data, pages visited, dates and times of access, referral information and interactions with website features. The information they receive depends on the technology used and the services provided.

Third-party cookies may be subject to the privacy policies and terms of the organisations that set them. We take reasonable steps to use service providers for appropriate business purposes and to require suitable handling of information where applicable. However, no online service or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Cookie information may be used with other information held by Shazam Casino where this is permitted and necessary for purposes such as maintaining a secure service, managing an account, improving the website, complying with legal obligations or responding to a request. We do not treat the presence of a cookie as permission to use personal information for every possible purpose.

Our Privacy Policy provides further information about how personal information may be collected, used, disclosed, stored and handled. It also explains relevant privacy choices and how you may raise a privacy question or request where applicable. If there is any inconsistency between this Cookies Policy and the Privacy Policy, the document dealing more specifically with the relevant issue will generally apply, subject to applicable law.

Children and vulnerable people

The website and its services are intended only for people who meet the applicable age and eligibility requirements. Cookies are not used to bypass age checks, identity checks, account controls or responsible gambling measures. If you believe a minor has used the website or that information has been collected in an inappropriate way, please use the available support or privacy channels so the matter can be reviewed.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookies Policy when our website, services, technologies, legal obligations or privacy practices change. The updated version will be made available on this page and will show a revised effective date where appropriate. Changes may affect the types of cookies used, the purposes for which they are used or the ways in which preferences can be managed.

You should review this page from time to time so that you remain aware of how cookies may be used. If a change requires renewed consent, we will provide an appropriate notice or preference option where required. Continuing to use the website after an updated policy is published may indicate that you have read the updated information, but optional cookies will remain subject to any consent requirements that apply.

Questions and further information

If you have a question about this Cookies Policy, the cookies used on the website or your available privacy choices, please use the support or privacy contact option made available on the website. When making an enquiry, provide enough information for the issue to be understood, but avoid sending passwords, payment details or other sensitive information unless it is specifically requested through a secure process.

By continuing to use the Shazam Casino website, you acknowledge that cookies and similar technologies may be used in accordance with this policy, your selections and applicable law.
