Cookie Policy
1. What cookies are
Websites you visit store tiny files called cookies within your browser. A cookie helps a site know your browser again when you return or open another page.
Alongside cookies, Pickering Casino also relies on pixels, local storage in your browser and comparable technologies. In this policy, the word cookies is used for every one of these.
Some cookies vanish the moment your visit ends. Others stay in your browser until you clear them yourself or they hit their expiry date.
2. Strictly necessary cookies
These keep the casino working and secure. They:
- keep your session active while you switch between the lobby, cashier and games
- shield your account from fraud and unauthorized access
- help with the location checks carried out before you deposit or play
- spread traffic across our servers so games load properly
These cookies stay switched on at all times, since our site needs them to operate securely. They are not used to follow you for marketing purposes.
3. Functional cookies
Functional cookies save the settings you choose, so you only pick them once. They store your display preferences, your language and the titles you opened recently in Popular, Jackpots or Live Casino.
You can switch these off. The site will still work, but your settings will reset on each visit.
4. Third-party cookies
Certain cookies are placed by partners whose services are shown on our site. They include:
- payment partners in the cashier
- identity and location verification partners
- game providers, including Live Casino streams
- partners for analytics and marketing
These partners set and control their own cookies under their own privacy policies. We choose partners who meet our standards for protecting player data.
5. Marketing cookies
Marketing cookies show us which campaigns and partner sites bring new players to Pickering Casino. They also help us show offers that match your interests.
We only set cookies from this group after you consent. Targeted casino offers are never shown to accounts under self-exclusion or in the middle of a cooling-off pause.
6. Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies show us which pages are visited, the loading speed of each game and any errors that appear. We use this to improve the lobby, the cashier and the featured games.
The data is combined across large numbers of players and never serves to identify you. These cookies are set only after you give consent.
7. Managing or switching them off
A banner appears on your first visit so you can accept or reject three optional cookie types one by one: functional, marketing and analytics. To update your choice later, open cookie settings in the site menu whenever you want.
Your browser also gives you control. You can:
- delete cookies already saved
- block cookies from all sites or from certain sites
- use private browsing, which clears cookies when you finish
Blocking strictly necessary cookies prevents you from logging in or using the cashier. On a shared device, please sign out whenever you finish playing.
8. Changes
This policy is revised when new partners or tools come on board, or when legislation changes. Each version appears here, dated from the day it takes effect. Should a change touch optional cookies you accepted earlier, your consent will be requested again.
For any question about cookies, email [email protected].
