Cookie Policy | Spintexas Casino
This Cookie Policy explains what we store on your device when you visit spintexas-casino.org.uk, why we do it and how you stay in control. We keep the wording plain so you can make an informed choice in under five minutes.
What Cookies Actually Do
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device. It holds a label, nothing more: your session ID, your chosen language, a counter of pages viewed. When you return, your browser sends that label back so the site recognises your setup.
We cannot read files on your device through cookies, and cookies do not contain your payment details or your password. Similar technologies, such as local storage and pixels, follow the same rules set out on this page.
The Cookies We Set
Strictly necessary
These keep the site working. Without them you cannot log in, keep a session open or pass our security checks. They fire the moment you load any page and cannot be switched off in your account settings, only through your browser.
| Category | Purpose | Example names | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Login, session, fraud prevention | spintexas_session, spintexas_auth, csrf_token | Session up to 24 hours |
| Functional | Language, currency, game preferences | spintexas_lang, spintexas_currency | Up to 365 days |
| Analytics | Aggregated behaviour, page performance | _ga, _gid, analytics_id | Up to 90 days |
| Marketing | Retargeting, bonus offers | ad_id, ads_prefs | Up to 30 days |
Functional
Functional cookies remember the choices you make: English or Deutsch, GBP or EUR, whether you collapsed a lobby filter last visit. They save you re-setting the site every time you arrive.
Analytics
Analytics cookies count visits, exit points and load times in aggregate form. We use the results to fix slow pages and to see which games players actually open. The data carries no name attached to it.
Marketing
Marketing cookies let us show you Spintexas Casino offers on other sites after you leave ours, and measure whether a campaign brought a registration. We ask for your consent before this category runs, and you can withdraw it at any time.
Third Party Cookies
Some cookies on our pages belong to other companies, not to us. We allow three categories only: analytics providers that measure site performance, advertising networks that deliver our retargeting campaigns, and payment providers whose cookies confirm a transaction status during deposit.
Each third party processes data under its own privacy policy and the consent you give or refuse here applies to all of them equally. Payment cookies exist purely to complete a deposit in progress and expire within minutes. We never allow third-party cookies that build advertising profiles of players under 18.
Managing Your Preferences
On our site
The consent banner appears on your first visit. You can accept all categories, reject everything except strictly necessary, or open granular settings and toggle each category. The Cookie Settings link in the footer of every page reopens the same panel, so your choice is never final.
In your browser
All major browsers block or delete cookies directly:
- Chrome: Settings, Privacy and security, Third-party cookies.
- Safari: Settings, Privacy, Manage Website Data.
- Firefox: Settings, Privacy and Security, Cookies and Site Data.
- Edge: Settings, Cookies and site permissions.
If you block cookies
Blocking strictly necessary cookies stops you from logging in and from completing a deposit. Blocking functional cookies means re-selecting language and currency each visit. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies changes nothing about gameplay; the site simply forgets your settings and you see generic rather than personalised offers.
How Long We Keep Them
Session cookies vanish the moment you close your browser. Persistent cookies carry an expiry date and delete themselves when it passes. Nothing survives beyond the limits below, and you can shorten every one of them yourself by clearing cookies in your browser.
The retention clock restarts each time you visit, so a 90-day analytics cookie set today expires 90 days from your last page load, not from your first ever visit.
| Cookie type | Retention | Opt-out |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Session, max 24 hours | Browser settings only |
| Functional | Up to 365 days | Browser settings or Cookie Settings panel |
| Analytics | Up to 90 days | Cookie Settings panel or browser |
| Marketing | Up to 30 days | Cookie Settings panel or browser |
Changes to This Policy
When we add a cookie category, change a retention period or bring in a new third party, we update this page and bump the version date at the top. If a change affects your consent, the banner reappears on your next visit and asks you to choose again. Questions go to [email protected], answered 24/7.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do cookies store my payment card details?
No. Cookies hold labels such as session IDs and preferences. Your card data is processed by our payment providers under encryption and never written to a cookie.
Can I withdraw consent after accepting?
Yes. Open Cookie Settings from any page footer and switch marketing or analytics off. The change applies immediately and deletes the matching cookies.
Do I need cookies to play at Spintexas Casino?
You need the strictly necessary category to log in and deposit. The other three categories are optional and gameplay works with them switched off.
What happens to cookies after I self-exclude?
Closing your account clears your session and functional cookies. Analytics and marketing cookies expire on their normal schedule, up to 90 days, unless you clear them in your browser sooner.
