Pokiesurf Casino Cookie Policy - PWA & Site Performance

This Cookie Policy explains how PokieSurf (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the website https://pokiesurf3.com (the “Website”).

You should read this policy together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect and use personal data through the Website.

By continuing to browse or use the Website after seeing our cookie banner, you agree that we can store and access cookies as described in this Cookie Policy, depending on your preferences.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website.

They allow the website to recognize your device, remember your actions and preferences, and help us improve your experience and the performance of the Website.

In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels, tags, and local storage, which work in a comparable way.

2. Who sets cookies

Cookies may be:

First‑party cookies: set and controlled directly by us when you visit the Website.
Third‑party cookies: set by third‑party providers (for example, analytics, advertising, payment, or social media partners) when you visit or interact with the Website.

Third parties may use the information they obtain from cookies in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.

3. Types of cookies we use

We group the cookies we use into the following categories. The exact cookies used on your device may vary over time, so this list is a general description.

3.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of the Website and for providing core casino services, such as:

Enabling page navigation and basic functions.
Managing your player session, logging in to your account, and keeping you logged in.
Maintaining security, preventing fraud, and ensuring the integrity of games and payments.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they are always active and do not require your consent, but you can still block them via your browser settings (which may affect Website functionality).

3.2 Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Website so we can measure and improve its performance.

They may collect information such as:

Which pages you visit and how long you stay.
The device, browser, and general location (e.g., country or region).
Technical errors or loading times.

We may use third‑party analytics providers (for example, tools similar to Google Analytics) for this purpose.

We use this data in aggregated or pseudonymized form, and not to directly identify individual users.

3.3 Functionality cookies

These cookies allow the Website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced features tailored to you, such as:

Remembering your preferred language or region.
Saving display or sound settings for games.
Remembering if you have already seen certain messages or pop‑ups.

If you disable these cookies, some or all of these features may not work properly.

3.4 Advertising and targeting cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertising that is more relevant to your interests, both on our Website and on third‑party sites and apps.

They may:

Record your visits to the Website, the pages you view, and the links you follow.
Help us and our marketing partners show you personalized offers or promotions related to online casino games.
Limit how often you see a particular advertisement and measure the effectiveness of campaigns.

These cookies are often set by third‑party advertising networks and may involve the sharing of limited data (such as an online identifier) with those partners.

If applicable law requires, we will only use advertising cookies where you have given us your consent through the cookie banner or settings tool.

4. Cookies used for casino functionality

Because the Website provides online casino services, some cookies are specifically used to support gaming and account features, for example:

Session identifiers to ensure that bets, spins, and game outcomes are correctly linked to your account.
Balance and bonus tracking to display your real‑money and bonus funds.
Security cookies to detect suspicious activity, multiple logins, or potential abuse of promotions.

Disabling these cookies may prevent you from accessing your account, placing bets, or using certain games or promotions.

Where required by applicable data protection and e‑privacy laws (for example, GDPR/ePrivacy in the EU/EEA and UK), we rely on your consent for the use of non‑essential cookies (such as analytics, functionality, and advertising cookies).

You can give or withdraw your consent at any time by using our cookie settings tool or adjusting your browser settings, as explained below.

For strictly necessary cookies, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in providing a secure, functioning Website and casino service.

When you visit the Website for the first time, you will see a cookie banner that allows you to:

Accept all cookies.
Reject non‑essential cookies.
Customize your preferences by cookie category (e.g., analytics, advertising).

You can change your choices at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link (or similar) in the footer or within your account area.

6.2 Browser controls

Most web browsers let you view, manage, delete, or block cookies for a website.
You can usually find these settings in the “Options”, “Settings”, or “Privacy and Security” sections of your browser.

For example, you can:

Block all cookies.
Delete existing cookies.
Set your browser to notify you before cookies are placed.

Please note that if you block or delete cookies, some parts of the Website may not function properly or you may not be able to use certain casino features.

7. Third‑party cookies and links

The Website may contain links to third‑party websites, tools, or services (for example, payment providers, responsible gambling resources, affiliate links, or social media plugins).

These third parties may place their own cookies on your device when you use their services or follow their links.

We do not control how these third parties use cookies, and their activities are subject to their own privacy and cookie policies.

We encourage you to review the cookie policies of any third‑party sites or services you visit.

8. How long cookies are stored

Cookies are stored for different periods depending on their purpose:

Session cookies are stored only for the duration of your browser session and are deleted when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them via your browser settings.

We aim to limit the duration of cookies to what is reasonably necessary for their purpose and to comply with applicable legal requirements.

9. Personal data and your rights

Some cookies may involve the processing of personal data, such as online identifiers, IP address, or account‑related information.

Where this is the case, our use of cookies will also be governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains in more detail:

What personal data we collect.
For what purposes and on what legal bases we process it.
How long we keep it.
To whom we may disclose it.
Your rights under applicable data protection law (for example, rights of access, rectification, deletion, restriction, objection, and data portability, as well as the right to withdraw consent).
