Cookie Policy

Cookies get a bad reputation — but most of them are just doing useful, boring work in the background. This page tells you exactly which ones we use, what each one actually does, and how to turn off the ones you don't want.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They're stored in your browser and sent back to the website on your next visit, allowing the site to recognise you and remember certain information about your session.

The word "cookie" sounds more alarming than it usually is. Most cookies on most websites do mundane things — like keeping you logged in while you browse between pages, or remembering that you've already closed a welcome banner. A small number of cookies, however, are used for tracking and advertising purposes, and those are the ones that most privacy conversations are actually about.

On this page we explain exactly which cookies Speedau Casino uses, why we use them, how long they last, and what you can do to control or remove them. We've tried to be more specific than the average cookie policy — because vague disclosures aren't particularly useful to anyone.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We use four categories of cookies. Strictly necessary cookies are always active — you can't opt out of those because the site won't function without them. The other three categories are optional, and you can choose to accept or decline them.

4. First-Party vs Third-Party Cookies

It's worth understanding the difference between first-party and third-party cookies, because they have different implications for your privacy.

First-party cookies are set directly by auspeedau.com. They can only be read by our website and are used for things like keeping your session active or storing your preferences. These are the most straightforward type — we control them entirely.

Third-party cookies are set by external services that run on our website — such as Google Analytics or advertising platforms. These cookies can potentially be read by the third party across any website that uses their services, which is why they're the focus of most cookie consent discussions. We only load third-party cookies that have a clear, documented purpose, and we only activate marketing and tracking cookies with your explicit consent.

First-party cookiesSet by auspeedau.com directly. Scoped to our domain only. Used for sessions, preferences, and internal analytics.

Third-party cookiesSet by external services (Google, Meta, etc.) running on our platform. May be readable by those services across other websites. Only loaded with your consent for non-essential categories.

5. Session Cookies vs Persistent Cookies

Cookies also differ in how long they last. This matters because a cookie that disappears when you close your browser behaves very differently from one that lingers for two years.

Session cookiesThese exist only while your browser is open. The moment you close the tab or window, they're deleted. Most login and security cookies are session-based.

Persistent cookiesThese survive browser sessions and remain on your device until they either expire or you delete them manually. Preference cookies, analytics cookies, and most marketing cookies are persistent. The duration varies — from a few days to two years — and is listed in our cookie table.

The duration shown in our cookie table reflects the maximum lifetime of each cookie. Many cookies are refreshed with each visit, effectively resetting their expiry date.

6. Your Cookie Choices

You have meaningful control over which cookies are active on your device. Here are your main options:

Cookie consent bannerWhen you first visit auspeedau.com, you'll be shown a cookie consent notice. You can accept all cookies, accept only strictly necessary cookies, or customise your preferences by category. Your choice is stored in a first-party cookie and respected on all subsequent visits.

Update your preferencesYou can change your cookie settings at any time by revisiting the consent notice. Look for the cookie settings link in the footer of any page on our site.

Browser-level controlsMost browsers allow you to block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or delete existing cookies at any time. We've included step-by-step instructions for the most popular browsers in Section 7 below.

Opt out of Google AnalyticsYou can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Opt out of targeted advertisingFor interest-based advertising opt-outs, you can use the Digital Advertising Alliance's opt-out tool at optout.aboutads.info, or the Network Advertising Initiative tool at optout.networkadvertising.org.

Please be aware that disabling functional or analytics cookies may affect your experience on the site. Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent the site from functioning correctly.

7. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Every major browser gives you the ability to view, manage, and delete cookies. Here's how to find the relevant settings in the four most commonly used browsers:

Chrome

Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data

Safari

Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data

Edge

Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data

8. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that they not track your browsing activity. There is currently no legally binding standard that requires websites to honour DNT signals, and industry adoption remains inconsistent.

At present, Speedau Casino does not respond differently to DNT signals. We rely instead on our cookie consent system, which gives you explicit control over each category of tracking cookie individually. We believe this is a more practical and transparent approach than a binary DNT signal that may or may not be acted upon.

If you want to prevent tracking, the most effective options are to decline marketing and analytics cookies through our consent banner, use your browser's built-in cookie controls, or use a privacy-focused browser or extension.

9. Changes to This Policy

We review this Cookie Policy at least once a year and update it whenever we add or remove cookies from our platform, when third-party services change their cookie behaviour, or when applicable regulations require updates.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the most recent version. If we make significant changes — for example, adding a new category of marketing cookie — we'll display a notice on the site to let you know and ask for fresh consent where required.

We'd encourage you to check this page periodically if you want to stay informed about how we use cookies. The cookie reference table in Section 3 is the most likely part to change between reviews.
