Cookies Policy

Cookies are small text files that may be stored on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or another internet-connected device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise a device and remember certain information about a visit. Cookies can help websites operate correctly, maintain secure sessions, remember preferences and understand how visitors use different pages and features.

Fatpirate Casino may also use technologies that perform a similar function to cookies. These may include pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage, device identifiers and other tracking or storage technologies. In this policy, the word cookies includes cookies and similar technologies unless a different meaning is clear from the context.

Some cookies may be placed directly by Fatpirate Casino. Other cookies may be placed by third-party service providers that support website hosting, security, analytics, payment functions, customer support, identity checks or other online services. The cookies available on the website may change as features, technologies and services develop.

Session and persistent cookies

Session cookies are generally temporary and may be removed when you close your browser or end your visit. They can help maintain a secure connection while you move between pages. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a longer period or until they expire or are deleted. They may help remember settings or recognise a returning visitor, subject to your browser settings and any preferences you select.

First-party and third-party cookies

First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies are set by another organisation whose service or content may be used on that website. Third-party providers may use their own technologies under their own privacy and cookie policies. Fatpirate Casino does not control every technology used by an external provider, so you should review the relevant provider information where appropriate.

Cookies may be used for different purposes depending on the page you visit, the device and browser you use, whether you have an account, the services available at the time and the choices you make. The exact cookies in use may change from time to time. They may help Fatpirate Casino provide a reliable, secure and practical online experience.

• Essential operation: to deliver pages, maintain website navigation, support account access, manage sessions and provide features that you request.
• Security and fraud prevention: to help protect accounts, identify unusual activity, support secure connections and reduce the risk of misuse, unauthorised access or fraudulent activity.
• Preferences and functionality: to remember settings such as language, display choices, region-related options or other selections that make the website easier to use.
• Performance and analytics: to understand how visitors interact with the website, identify technical errors, measure loading performance and improve content, design and functionality.
• Service improvement: to assess which features are useful, identify areas where visitors experience difficulty and help plan changes to the website.
• Advertising and campaign measurement: where permitted, to measure interactions with promotional content and help understand whether advertising or marketing activity is effective.
• Compliance and responsible operation: to support applicable legal, identity, age-related, security, responsible gambling or account-management processes where those functions are required.

Essential cookies may be necessary for the website to work as intended. If they are blocked, deleted or disabled, some pages, account functions, security checks or online services may not operate correctly. Non-essential cookies are generally used to improve the experience, collect analytical information or support additional services and may be controlled through available preference tools or browser settings.

Cookies do not usually contain information that directly identifies you by name. However, information collected through cookies may be linked with account, device, browser, transaction, usage or other information held by Fatpirate Casino or its service providers. The handling of personal information is described in the Fatpirate Casino Privacy Policy.

Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies support the basic operation and security of the website. They may help maintain a secure connection, keep you signed in during a session, remember information as you move between pages, manage account areas and protect forms or interactive features. Because these cookies support services you have requested or essential website functions, they may not always be available for opt-out through the website.

Functionality cookies

Functionality cookies help the website remember choices and provide a more consistent experience. For example, they may remember a selected preference, help present content in a suitable format or retain settings during a visit. If you disable these cookies, the website may still be available, but some preferences may need to be selected again.

Analytics and performance cookies

Analytics and performance cookies may collect information about visits, page views, navigation patterns, loading times, interactions and technical errors. This information may be assessed in an aggregated or pseudonymised form to understand website performance and improve the user experience. It may also help Fatpirate Casino identify content that is useful and areas where visitors need clearer information or easier navigation.

Security and service cookies

Security and service cookies may support account protection, session management, fraud detection, payment-related processes, identity services or other features provided through the website. The use of these cookies may be necessary to deliver a service, verify activity or protect the website and its users.

Advertising and measurement cookies

Advertising or measurement cookies may be used to understand whether promotional content has been displayed or interacted with and whether visitors return after seeing a campaign. These cookies may be operated by third parties and may involve information about a browser or device. Where required, consent or another lawful basis will be considered before these technologies are used. Advertising cookies are not intended to remove your ability to make independent decisions about gambling.

Third-party cookies

Certain website features may be supplied by external providers. Examples may include hosting, security, analytics, payment, identity, customer support, embedded content or communication services. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own policies. Their practices may differ from those of Fatpirate Casino, and you should review their information if you want to understand how they manage cookies.

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie notice or preference tool. Where available, this tool allows you to accept, reject or adjust categories of non-essential cookies. Your selections may be stored so they can be applied during later visits. If you clear your browser data, use another device or use a different browser, you may need to make your selections again.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to view stored cookies, remove existing cookies, block cookies from particular websites, block third-party cookies or prevent cookies from being stored. Browser controls differ between providers, devices and versions, so you should check the help or settings section of your browser for current instructions.

• Blocking all cookies may affect account access, website navigation, security checks and other essential functions.
• Deleting cookies may remove saved preferences and sign you out of areas where you have previously logged in.
• Changing browser or device settings may affect websites other than Fatpirate Casino.
• Opting out of advertising cookies may not stop all advertising; it may mean that advertising is less tailored to your interests.
• Cookie choices may not remove information that was collected before your settings were changed.
• Some technologies may be controlled separately from ordinary browser cookies and may require additional device or browser settings.

Where a cookie preference tool is provided, its controls may apply to the categories described in that tool. Some cookies may remain active because they are needed for security, legal, technical, account-related or service-delivery reasons. If a preference tool is not available for a particular technology, you may be able to manage it through your browser, device settings or the relevant third-party provider.

If you use more than one browser or device to access Fatpirate Casino, your cookie choices may need to be applied separately in each browser or device. Cookie settings do not normally change whether you can access the website, but disabling essential cookies may prevent some features from working properly.

Information collected through cookies may include an internet protocol address, browser type, device type, operating system, approximate location, referring page, pages visited, visit times, interactions and technical information. The information collected will depend on the cookies and similar technologies in use and the settings of your device and browser.

Fatpirate Casino may use service providers to host the website, operate technical systems, analyse performance, support security, process requested services or assist with other business functions. These providers may process information on behalf of Fatpirate Casino and may use cookies or similar technologies where necessary for the services they provide. Access to information should be limited to what is reasonably needed for the relevant purpose.

Cookies and online identifiers can involve personal information or information that may be combined with personal information. Your rights and available choices may depend on the circumstances, the type of information involved and the laws that apply to your use of the website in Australia. For information about access, correction, handling, retention, security and other privacy matters, please refer to the Fatpirate Casino Privacy Policy.

Fatpirate Casino may review and update this Cookies Policy when the website, technologies, services or applicable requirements change. The updated version will be made available on this page, and a notice or updated date may be provided where appropriate. You should check this page from time to time so that you understand the current approach to cookies and similar technologies.

If you have questions about this Cookies Policy or your cookie choices, please use the available contact or support options shown on the Fatpirate Casino website. Do not include sensitive account, payment or identity information unless it is specifically requested through a secure channel. By continuing to use the website after relevant changes are published, you acknowledge that you have had an opportunity to review the updated policy, subject to any consent requirements that apply.
