500 Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how 500 Casino uses cookies and similar technologies on our website for users in Australia. It describes what cookies are, why we use them, and the choices you have when you browse, register, or play.
Cookies help us deliver core site functions, keep accounts secure, remember preferences, understand how the website is used, and (where permitted) provide marketing that is more relevant. You can manage cookies at any time through your browser settings and, where available, our on-site cookie controls.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. When you return, the website can read those files to recognise your browser and store certain information, such as your session status or language preferences.
Some cookies are “session” cookies, which exist only while your browser is open and are deleted when you close it. Others are “persistent” cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them. Similar technologies may also be used, such as local storage, SDK identifiers (in app-like environments), and pixels. In this policy, we refer to these collectively as “cookies” unless we specify otherwise.
Types of Cookies
500 Casino uses different categories of cookies depending on the function they serve. The exact cookies in use may change over time as we improve the website, add features, or change service providers.
Cookie duration
- Session cookies: used to keep you logged in and maintain a secure session during a visit.
- Persistent cookies: used to remember selections and preferences across visits (for example, certain display settings).
Cookie origin
- First-party cookies: set by 500 Casino and used to support website features and security.
- Third-party cookies: set by external providers to deliver services such as analytics, fraud prevention tools, or marketing features.
Cookie purpose categories
- Essential cookies: required for the website to operate correctly and securely.
- Performance cookies: help us understand usage so we can improve speed, navigation, and content.
- Functional cookies: support personalisation and enhanced features.
- Marketing cookies: used to measure and deliver advertising, subject to your choices and applicable requirements.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the operation of the 500 Casino website. Without them, key features may not work, and we may be unable to provide services you request.
These cookies are typically used to:
- Maintain secure login sessions and authenticate users.
- Protect account access by supporting security checks and detecting suspicious behaviour.
- Enable core site navigation, page routing, and load balancing.
- Process actions you initiate, such as logging in, moving between secure pages, or completing account steps.
- Store your cookie preferences where a cookie choice tool is offered.
Because essential cookies are required for core functionality and security, disabling them may prevent you from using parts of the website, including account areas and gameplay features.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us measure how visitors use the website. They allow 500 Casino to understand which pages are visited most often, how users move around the site, and whether errors occur. This information is used to improve performance and reliability.
Performance cookies may collect information such as:
- Pages and features accessed and the time spent on them.
- Approximate location information derived from technical signals (not precise GPS), where available.
- Device and browser characteristics (for example, browser type, screen size, operating system).
- Technical events (such as loading errors, failed requests, or crash diagnostics).
We aim to use this data in a way that supports improvement of the service and user experience. Where possible, performance reporting is reviewed in aggregate rather than focusing on individual browsing behaviour.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies support enhanced website functionality and personalisation. They are not strictly required for the website to operate, but they can improve your experience and reduce the need to re-enter selections each time you visit.
Functional cookies may be used to:
- Remember preferences such as language, display settings, or layout choices.
- Keep certain non-essential selections you make during a visit (for example, dismissing an informational prompt).
- Support features that improve usability, such as saving device or browser-level settings where appropriate.
- Assist with customer experience features, such as routing you to the correct regional version of pages when available.
If you disable functional cookies, some preferences may not be saved and certain enhanced features may not work as intended.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to help deliver ads and communications that may be relevant to you, and to measure the effectiveness of campaigns. They can also be used to limit how often you see an advertisement and to help prevent duplicate or misleading attribution of marketing results.
These cookies may:
- Record that you have visited the 500 Casino website and which pages you viewed.
- Support measurement of marketing performance (for example, whether an ad led to a site visit).
- Help tailor marketing content based on high-level interest categories inferred from browsing behaviour.
- Work with third-party advertising platforms that may use their own identifiers.
Marketing cookies may be set by us or by third parties. If you choose to block marketing cookies, you may still see advertising, but it may be less relevant, and some measurement or preference controls may not function properly.
Managing Cookies
You can manage cookies in several ways. Your options may depend on the device and browser you use, and they may vary after browser updates. If you use multiple browsers or devices, you will usually need to apply settings on each.
Common controls include:
- Browser settings: most browsers let you block or delete cookies, or notify you before a cookie is placed.
- Clearing stored data: you can remove existing cookies and site data through your browser’s privacy controls.
- Private browsing modes: these may reduce persistent storage, but they do not necessarily block all cookies.
- On-site cookie tools: where provided, you may be able to adjust non-essential cookie categories through the website interface.
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect website functionality. For example, you may be signed out more frequently, some settings may not save, and certain secure areas may not load correctly.
If you have questions about cookie choices on 500 Casino, you can contact our support team at [email protected].
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies and similar technologies on 500 Casino may be set by third parties that provide services to us. These providers may include analytics, security, fraud detection, payment-related tooling, customer experience tools, and advertising technology providers.
Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy and cookie practices of the third party that sets them. We encourage you to review those providers’ policies to understand how they use cookies and what choices they offer.
Key points to understand about third-party cookies:
- Third parties may recognise your device across different websites or apps, depending on their settings and your choices.
- We seek to use third-party services that are appropriate for website operations, security, and user experience, but we do not control third-party cookie behaviour once set.
- Disabling third-party cookies through your browser may reduce tracking across websites, but may also impact embedded functions supplied by those third parties.
Where the website uses integrations that involve third-party tags or pixels, those tools may collect technical identifiers such as cookie IDs, IP-based signals, or device information to help provide their services. We aim to limit such use to what is reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy and any related notices presented on the website.
Policy Updates
500 Casino may update this Cookies Policy to reflect changes in technology, website functionality, or operational practices. When we make updates, we will revise the content on this page and adjust the “effective” presentation within the website environment where applicable.
We recommend checking this policy periodically, especially if you regularly manage cookie preferences or use multiple devices. Continued use of the website after an update will be treated as acceptance of the revised policy to the extent permitted by applicable requirements and your cookie choices.
