Cookies Policy | Stellar Casino

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files or similar data files that may be placed on your computer, tablet, mobile phone or another device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise a device or remember information about a visit. Cookies can help a website operate properly, protect accounts, remember preferences and provide information about how the website is used.

Some cookies are set by the website you are visiting. These are commonly called first-party cookies. Other cookies may be placed by service providers that support functions such as website security, performance measurement, analytics, advertising or customer support. These are commonly called third-party cookies.

Cookies can be session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies are generally removed when you close your browser. Persistent cookies may remain on your device for a period of time or until you remove them. The length of time a cookie remains available can depend on its purpose, your browser settings and the provider that placed it.

A cookie does not usually identify you by name on its own. However, information collected through cookies may be combined with other information associated with your browser, device or account. Where this occurs, the information will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable requirements.

How Stellar Casino may use cookies

Stellar Casino may use cookies and similar technologies for several purposes. The technologies used on the website may change over time as features, security measures and service providers change. We aim to use them in a way that is relevant to the operation of the website and the services made available to eligible users.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies may be needed for core website functions. They can support activities such as moving between pages, maintaining a secure session, remembering account-related settings, detecting unusual activity and helping to protect the website from misuse. If these cookies are disabled, some parts of the website may not work correctly or may not be available.

Preference and functionality cookies

These cookies may remember choices you make, such as language, display preferences, consent settings or other selections that make the website easier to use. They can reduce the need to repeat the same choices during later visits. If you remove them, you may need to set your preferences again.

Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies may help us understand how visitors use the website. For example, they may provide information about pages viewed, time spent on a page, navigation paths, loading performance or errors encountered. This information can be used in an aggregated or otherwise limited form to improve content, design, functionality and website performance.

Security and fraud-prevention technologies

Cookies and similar technologies may be used to support account security, identify automated or suspicious activity, limit abuse and help protect users, systems and transactions. These technologies may collect information about a device, browser, network connection or interactions with the website. They are not intended to replace other security measures, and you should still keep your account details confidential.

Advertising and marketing technologies

Where used and permitted, cookies or similar technologies may help measure the effectiveness of marketing, show more relevant information or limit the number of times an advertisement is displayed. Marketing technologies may be provided by third parties. You may be able to control some of these technologies through our cookie settings, your browser or the relevant third-party service.

Your cookie choices and controls

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie notice or settings tool. Depending on the technologies in use, this tool may allow you to accept, reject or customise non-essential cookies. Your choices may be saved in a cookie or similar file so that the website can remember them. If you use a different device or browser, you may need to make your choices again.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view cookies, block some or all cookies, delete existing cookies or receive a warning before a cookie is placed. Instructions differ between browsers, operating systems and devices, so you should check the help or settings area for the browser you use.

Blocking or deleting cookies may affect the way the website works. For example, you may be unable to stay signed in, save preferences, use certain account functions or complete some processes. Strictly necessary cookies may not be capable of being disabled through the website settings tool because they support essential functions.

Some devices also provide controls for limiting tracking, resetting advertising identifiers or restricting the use of information for personalised advertising. These controls are managed by the device or platform provider and may not apply to every type of cookie or similar technology.

Changing your cookie settings does not automatically remove information that was collected before the change. Previously stored cookies can generally be deleted through your browser settings. You may also need to manage preferences directly with a third-party provider where that provider supplies the relevant technology.

Review the cookie notice or settings tool displayed on the website.
Choose the categories of non-essential cookies you are comfortable accepting.
Use your browser or device settings to remove or block stored cookies.
Review settings again after clearing cookies, changing browsers or using another device.
Read the relevant privacy information before using third-party services or links.

Third parties, privacy and updates

Some services used to operate, secure, analyse or improve the website may be provided by third parties. Those providers may use cookies, pixels, software development kits, device identifiers or other similar technologies in accordance with their own terms and privacy information. We do not control every setting or practice of an independent third party. You should review the provider's information if you want to understand how it handles data or how to opt out of a particular service.

Information collected through cookies may include an IP address, browser type, device details, operating system, approximate location, pages visited, referring website, dates and times of access, consent preferences and information about interactions with the website. The information collected will depend on the technology and its purpose. We seek to handle this information appropriately and to apply suitable measures to protect it from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or loss.

Cookie information may be used alongside information provided when creating or using an account. It may support website administration, security, customer assistance, service improvement, compliance processes and the prevention of fraud or other prohibited conduct. Our Privacy Policy explains in more detail how personal information may be collected, used, disclosed and managed.

Stellar Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time. An update may be made to reflect changes to the website, cookies and similar technologies, third-party services, legal requirements or our privacy practices. When changes are made, the revised policy will be made available on the website and the updated version will apply from the date stated or, where no date is stated, from publication.

You should review this page periodically so that you remain aware of how cookies may be used and what choices are available. If you continue to use the website after an updated policy is published, this may indicate that you have read the updated information. Where consent is required for a particular type of technology, your preferences will be managed through the available consent controls.

If you have a question about this Cookies Policy, the cookies used on the website or the way your personal information is handled, please use the available contact or support options on the Stellar Casino website. Do not include passwords, payment details or other sensitive account information in an initial enquiry unless you are asked to provide it through a secure process.

This Cookies Policy is intended as general information for visitors and users in Australia. It does not change any applicable website terms, account conditions, privacy notices or responsible gambling information. If there is an inconsistency between this policy and another applicable legal document, the document that specifically addresses the relevant matter may apply.
