Cookies Policy

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website may place on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or another internet-connected device. A cookie allows the website to recognise a device or remember information about a visit. Cookies may help a website function correctly, remember preferences, protect accounts and understand how visitors use its pages.

Some cookies are set by Stelario Casino and are known as first-party cookies. Other cookies may be set by service providers that support website functions, security, analytics, communications or other services. These are commonly known as third-party cookies. The use of a third-party cookie does not necessarily mean that the third party can access all information held by Stelario Casino. Access and use should be limited to the service or purpose for which the technology is provided.

Cookies can be session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies are generally removed when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a period set by the relevant cookie or until you delete them. The period may vary depending on the purpose of the cookie, your settings and the provider responsible for it.

The website may also use technologies that perform functions similar to cookies. These may include pixels, tags, local storage, software development tools and device or browser information. This policy applies to these technologies where they are used for similar purposes.

Why cookies matter

Cookies can make a website easier and safer to use. For example, they may help a page load properly, keep a session active while you move between pages, remember a language or display preference, or help identify unusual activity. Without some cookies, parts of the website may not operate as intended.

How Stelario Casino uses cookies

Stelario Casino may use cookies and similar technologies for the following general purposes. The cookies used at a particular time may depend on the pages you visit, the features you use, your device and your cookie choices.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies support essential website functions. They may be used to establish and maintain a secure session, remember actions during a visit, route requests correctly, manage access to protected areas, prevent fraudulent activity and support the stability of the website. Because these technologies may be necessary for basic operation or security, they may not be available for complete opt-out through the website cookie controls.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies remember choices that make the website more convenient. They may remember settings such as language, region, display preferences or information entered into a form during a session. If you disable these cookies, the website may still be available, but some preferences may need to be entered again and certain features may be less personalised.

Security and fraud prevention technologies

Cookies and related technologies may help protect the website, player accounts and transactions from misuse. They may assist with detecting automated activity, suspicious behaviour, repeated failed access attempts or activity that does not appear consistent with normal use. Information collected for these purposes may be combined with other security information where permitted by law and where necessary to protect the website and its users.

Analytics and performance cookies

Where enabled, analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. They may provide information such as which pages are visited, how visitors move through the website, whether pages load correctly and whether a feature is being used. This information is generally used in an aggregated or pseudonymised form to identify trends, improve content, fix technical problems and make the website easier to navigate.

Preference and personalisation technologies

Some technologies may help display content in a way that is more relevant to your stated settings or previous interaction with the website. These technologies should not be understood as a promise that every page, offer or feature will be personalised. Their use depends on the functions available and the choices you make.

Marketing and advertising technologies

Where used and permitted, marketing or advertising technologies may help measure campaigns, limit repeated advertisements, understand interactions with promotional content or show information that may be more relevant to a visitor. These technologies may be provided by third parties. You may be able to refuse or withdraw consent for non-essential marketing cookies through the website cookie controls or your browser settings.

We do not use cookies to remove your responsibility for making careful, informed decisions about gambling. Cookies should not be regarded as a method of assessing whether gambling is suitable for you, and they do not change any responsible gambling tools, account requirements or applicable website terms.

Your cookie choices and controls

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie notice or consent tool. Where required, this tool may allow you to accept non-essential cookies, reject them, or choose categories individually. Your available options may depend on the device, browser, website version and legal requirements that apply to your visit.

You can usually change your cookie choices later by using the cookie settings link or control made available on the website. Changing your settings may not remove cookies that have already been placed on your device. To remove existing cookies, you may also need to use the controls provided by your browser or device.

Browser and device settings

Most browsers allow you to review, block, delete or restrict cookies through their privacy or settings menus. Mobile devices may provide similar controls through their operating system settings. The steps vary between browsers and devices, so you should refer to the relevant provider's instructions. If you use more than one browser or device, you may need to set your preferences separately on each one.

Blocking all cookies may affect the availability, security or performance of the website. For example, you may be unable to sign in, maintain a secure session, save preferences or use certain account features. If you delete cookies, your choices may also be reset and the cookie notice may appear again on a later visit.

Do Not Track and similar signals

Some browsers and devices offer Do Not Track or similar privacy signals. Because there is no single industry approach to interpreting every signal, the website may not respond to all such settings in the same way. Where a specific privacy signal is recognised or required to be respected, it will be handled in accordance with applicable law and the relevant technical capability.

Consent and withdrawal

Where consent is required, consent to non-essential cookies is optional and can be withdrawn. Withdrawal does not affect processing that took place before the change. It also does not necessarily stop information being collected through technologies that are strictly necessary for the website, account security, fraud prevention or other permitted purposes.

Third parties, information and policy changes

Some website functions may be supported by third-party providers. Those providers may use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own privacy notices and contractual arrangements. Third-party services may process information such as a device identifier, IP address, browser type, approximate location, pages viewed, event information and technical performance data. The information collected will depend on the service and how you use the website.

Cookie information may be linked with information collected during your website visit or account use where this is necessary for security, service operation, analytics or another stated purpose and is permitted by law. We aim to use information only for legitimate and disclosed purposes, to limit access appropriately and to retain it only for as long as reasonably necessary. Further information about personal information handling, disclosures, security and rights is available in the Privacy Policy.

Information collected through cookies

• The date and time of a visit or interaction
• The pages, features or content accessed
• Browser, operating system and device information
• General technical and performance information
• Cookie preferences and settings
• Referral information, such as the page or source from which you arrived
• Information used to help maintain security and detect unusual activity

Cookies generally do not directly identify a person by name. However, information obtained from a cookie or similar technology may be capable of being associated with an account, device or other information. Where that occurs, the information will be handled as personal information in accordance with the Privacy Policy and applicable Australian privacy requirements.

Children and age restrictions

The website is intended for adults who meet the applicable legal age and eligibility requirements for online gambling. We do not knowingly seek to collect information from people who are not permitted to use the website. If you believe that a child or ineligible person has provided information or used the website, please stop that use and raise the matter through the contact option made available on the website.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookies Policy when our website, technologies, service providers, legal obligations or privacy practices change. The updated version will be published on this page with a revised date or other indication where appropriate. You should review this page from time to time so that you understand how cookies are being used. If a change requires fresh consent, an updated cookie notice or consent tool may be displayed.

Questions about cookies

If you have a question about this policy, your cookie choices or the handling of personal information, use the contact or support option made available on the Stelario Casino website. Please do not include unnecessary sensitive information in a message. We may need to verify your identity before discussing information connected with an account.

By continuing to use the website after reviewing any applicable cookie notice, you acknowledge that cookies may be used in accordance with your selections, this policy and the Privacy Policy. Essential cookies may continue to operate where they are needed to provide a secure and functional service.
