Our Cookie Policy, Explained Simply
This page sets out, in plain language, every cookie realcasino-aud.com may place on your device, why each one exists, how long it stays and what you can do about it. We keep the jargon to a minimum and stick to facts.
What Cookies Actually Are
A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your device when you visit. It holds a snippet of data, often just a random ID, that the site reads back on your next visit. That is all it is: a memory aid, not a program and not access to your files.
Cookies let us do things like keep you logged in after you sign in, remember that you set your balance to AUD, and tell whether a visitor has already seen our cookie banner. Without them, most of what you expect from a casino site, including staying logged in while you play, would break on every page load.
The Cookies We Set
Strictly necessary
These keep the site working. They maintain your login session, protect forms against cross-site request forgery, carry your authentication token while you play and enforce security checks such as rate limiting on the login page. Because the site cannot function without them, we set them without asking for separate consent. A typical example is a PHP session identifier plus a CSRF token issued with every form.
Functional
Functional cookies remember choices you have made: your language (English, Deutsch, Español or Français), currency display, sound settings on our games and whether you dismissed the cookie banner. They are convenient rather than essential, so we ask for your consent through the banner before setting them.
Analytics
Analytics cookies tell us, in aggregated form, which pages players visit, where they drop off during registration and how long a typical session lasts. We use the numbers to fix problems and improve page speed. The data is anonymised and reported in totals; we do not use analytics cookies to build a profile of you as an individual.
Marketing
With your consent, marketing cookies help us show our promotions, such as the welcome bonus or weekly reload offers, to people who have shown interest in Real Casino but have not yet signed up. They also limit how often you see the same ad. Reject this category and the site works normally; you simply stop seeing our ads around the web.
Summary table
| Category | Purpose | Typical duration | Opt-out |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Session, login, CSRF and security | Session to 30 days | Not available |
| Functional | Language, currency, preferences | Up to 90 days | Cookie banner |
| Analytics | Aggregated traffic and behaviour | Up to 90 days | Cookie banner |
| Marketing | Retargeting and ad frequency | Up to 365 days | Cookie banner |
Third Party Cookies on Our Site
Some cookies on realcasino-aud.com belong to other companies, not to us. Three categories of third parties may set cookies when you use our site: analytics providers who measure our traffic on our behalf, advertising networks that serve our retargeting campaigns, and payment providers involved when you deposit or withdraw.
Payment providers set strictly necessary technical cookies to protect transactions, for example fraud-prevention checks that run while a PayID or card deposit is processed. Third-party cookies are governed by those companies' own privacy policies as well as ours; we do not permit third parties to set marketing cookies on our pages without your consent. If you block third-party cookies entirely, deposits may still work but some verification steps could ask you to confirm details manually.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
On our site
The first time you land on any Real Casino page, our banner asks you to accept all cookies or choose only the strictly necessary ones. You can change that choice at any time: open the cookie settings link in the site footer and switch analytics or marketing on or off. Your new settings take effect the moment you save them, and we delete any non-necessary cookies we had already set.
In your browser
Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies through its settings menu.
- Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies and site data.
- Safari: Settings, then Privacy, where you can block all cookies or cross-site tracking.
- Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then choose your cookie behaviour under Enhanced Tracking Protection.
- Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies.
What happens if you block cookies
Block strictly necessary cookies and you will not stay logged in, so every page will treat you as a new visitor and deposits will not go through. Block functional cookies and we will forget your language and currency settings each visit. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies has no effect on gameplay; you can play all 22,700 games exactly the same, we just learn less about site traffic and stop showing you ads.
How Long We Keep Each Cookie
Every cookie we set has an expiry, and we do not extend it silently. Session cookies are the shortest: they live in your browser's memory and disappear the moment you close the tab or log out. Persistent cookies carry a fixed lifetime set at creation.
In round numbers: strictly necessary cookies last from the length of your session up to 30 days for the remember-me function; functional cookies up to 90 days; analytics cookies up to 90 days; marketing cookies up to 365 days. When a persistent cookie expires, your browser deletes it automatically. Clearing your browser data removes every cookie at once, including the one that stores your banner choice, so you will see the banner again on your next visit.
Changes We May Make Later
If we add a new cookie category, change a retention period or bring in a new analytics provider, we update this page and bump the version note at the top. For material changes, such as a new marketing partner, we also re-show the consent banner so you can review your choice before anything new is set. Questions about any cookie on this page? Email [email protected], which our team answers 24/7, and we will tell you exactly what a given cookie does.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do cookies let you see my personal files?
No. A cookie is a small text file the site itself writes and reads. It cannot access documents, photos or anything else stored on your device.
Can I play at Real Casino with all cookies blocked?
You need strictly necessary cookies to log in and deposit. With those allowed and everything else blocked, all 22,700 games run normally.
How do I change my cookie choices after accepting?
Open the cookie settings link in our footer and switch any category on or off. Your new preference applies immediately.
Why do I see the banner again after clearing my browser data?
Your consent choice is itself stored in a cookie. Clearing browser data deletes it, so we ask for your preference again on your next visit.
