National Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how National Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use our website from Australia. It describes the purposes these technologies serve, the choices available to you, and how changing your browser settings may affect your experience.
Cookies can support essential website functions, improve performance, remember preferences and help us present more relevant information. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and the other terms that apply to National Casino services. National Casino is intended for people aged 18 and over.
Understanding Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise a browser or device and retain limited information about a visit. A cookie may remain on your device for the length of your browsing session or continue for a defined period after you leave the website.
National Casino may also use related technologies, such as pixels, tags, local storage and software development tools. These technologies can perform functions similar to cookies, including remembering settings, measuring website activity and supporting security controls. In this policy, we refer to cookies and these related technologies together as "cookies".
Cookies do not normally contain information such as your password in readable form. Depending on their purpose, they may be associated with information about your browser, device, website interactions, approximate location or preferences. National Casino handles information collected through cookies in accordance with applicable privacy requirements and our Privacy Policy.
Cookie Categories
Cookies used on or through the National Casino website may be grouped into the following categories:
- Essential cookies, which support security, access and core website functions.
- Performance cookies, which help us understand how the website operates and where improvements may be needed.
- Functional cookies, which remember choices and provide a more personalised experience.
- Marketing cookies, which may be used to measure campaigns or tailor promotional content, subject to your available choices.
A cookie can also be classified by who places it. First-party cookies are set by National Casino or by service providers acting on our instructions. Third-party cookies are set by another provider whose tools or content may be used on the website. Some cookies may fall into more than one description depending on their function and duration.
Cookies We Need
Essential cookies are required for basic website operation. Without them, certain services may not work properly or the website may be unable to remember important actions during your visit. These cookies are generally used for purposes such as:
- Keeping parts of the website secure and helping identify unusual or unauthorised activity.
- Maintaining a session while you move between pages or use account-related features.
- Supporting login, age-related access controls and other necessary account processes.
- Remembering selections made during a transaction or other service interaction.
- Balancing website traffic and helping pages load reliably.
- Recording your cookie preferences so that the consent tool can operate correctly.
Because these cookies support functions you request or functions necessary to provide the website, they may not be disabled through every cookie preference tool. You can usually block them through your browser, but doing so may prevent access to some National Casino features or cause pages to operate incorrectly.
Measuring Website Performance
Performance cookies collect information about how visitors use National Casino. They may show which pages are visited, how long pages take to load, whether links are used and whether visitors encounter error messages. The information is generally used in aggregated or pseudonymous form to help us assess and improve the website.
These cookies can help National Casino identify technical problems, test page layouts, understand general navigation patterns and monitor the stability of digital services. They may also assist with evaluating whether a new feature works as intended before it is made available more widely.
Performance cookies are not intended to provide the content of your account or reveal your password. Where these cookies are optional, you can manage them through the cookie settings presented on the website or through your browser controls.
Remembering Your Preferences
Functional cookies allow National Casino to remember choices you make so that the website can respond in a more convenient way. For example, they may retain language or display preferences, remember whether a notice has been viewed, or preserve settings selected during a visit.
These cookies may also support enhanced features that are not strictly necessary for the website to function. If you decline them, the core website may remain available, but some preferences may need to be selected again and certain features may be less tailored to you.
Functional cookies do not remove your responsibility to use National Casino safely and within any applicable account, platform or promotional terms. They are intended to improve usability rather than to change the rules governing your account or access to services.
Promotional and Advertising Cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to understand the effectiveness of promotional activity, limit how often an advertisement is shown, or provide content that is more relevant to your interests. They may record information about your browsing activity on National Casino and, where applicable, interactions with advertising or campaign material.
National Casino may use marketing tools supplied by external providers to measure visits arising from campaigns or to understand how visitors respond to promotional content. These tools may use identifiers that recognise a browser or device across different visits. The information collected should be considered alongside the choices and disclosures provided by the relevant provider.
Marketing cookies are optional where the applicable consent mechanism allows you to choose whether to accept them. Declining these cookies may not remove all advertising, but it can make promotional content less personalised and may prevent National Casino from accurately measuring some campaigns. Promotional communications and advertising remain subject to applicable responsible gambling requirements and National Casino terms.
Controlling Your Cookie Choices
You can manage optional cookies through the cookie banner or preference centre made available on the National Casino website, where applicable. Your choices may be remembered by a preference cookie. If you clear your cookies, use a different browser or change devices, you may be asked to make your choices again.
Most browsers also provide settings that allow you to view, delete, block or restrict cookies. The exact process differs between browsers and devices. Browser controls may allow you to:
- Accept or reject all cookies.
- Allow only first-party cookies.
- Delete cookies when you close the browser.
- Block cookies from selected websites or providers.
- Receive a notification before a cookie is stored.
Disabling cookies does not necessarily delete information already collected before the change. It may also affect the operation of National Casino, including sign-in functions, security checks, account navigation and the display of preferences. For the best result, manage optional categories through the National Casino cookie controls and use browser settings as an additional measure.
Cookies Set by Other Providers
Some National Casino pages may include services, content or tools provided by third parties. These providers may set their own cookies or use comparable technologies when their features load or are used. Examples may include analytics, security, embedded content, payment-related functionality or advertising measurement, depending on the services active on the website.
Third-party cookies are controlled by the relevant provider and may be subject to that provider's privacy and cookie information. National Casino does not control the policies or technical practices of every external provider. We take reasonable steps to use third-party services that are suitable for the relevant website function, but you should review the provider's information if you require more detail about its processing.
Links from National Casino to external websites may also involve cookies that are outside our control. Visiting another website does not mean that National Casino endorses all of that website's practices. Consider the privacy and cookie notices on any external website before submitting information or enabling optional technologies.
Changes to This Policy
National Casino may update this Cookies Policy when our website, technology, service providers or privacy practices change. We may also revise it to reflect changes in applicable guidance or operational requirements. The updated version will be published on this page with a revised date or other notice where appropriate.
Changes will take effect when published unless a later effective date is stated. If an update materially changes how optional cookies are used, National Casino may present a new consent request or provide additional information through the website. We encourage you to review this policy periodically so that you remain informed about our use of cookies.
If you have questions about this policy or wish to raise a privacy-related concern, please use the National Casino contact page. When contacting us, provide enough information for your request to be understood, but avoid including account passwords or other unnecessary sensitive information.
