Cookies Policy
Cookies Policy for Stake Casino
This Cookies Policy explains how Stake Casino and its service partners use cookies and similar browser technologies to support site functionality, session handling, analytics, preferences and performance. It is written in plain language for players and covers the practical effects of cookies on your experience, how to manage them and what happens if you disable them.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website or service when you visit. They store short pieces of information that help the site remember things about your visit, such as whether you are logged in, your language choice or session state. Similar technologies include localStorage and sessionStorage, which keep data in your browser between or during sessions.
Why we use cookies
Cookies help Stake Casino deliver a functional and convenient site. Common uses include keeping you logged in during a session, remembering language and display preferences, enabling secure payment flows, running analytics to improve pages, diagnosing technical issues and tailoring communication preferences. Some cookies are essential for core features; others improve speed and personalization.
Essential cookies
Essential cookies are required for basic site operation. They support secure login, session continuity, shopping or wallet operations and transaction integrity. If you block these cookies, key parts of the site may stop working and you may be unable to place bets, open games or complete payments.
Session cookies
Session cookies exist only while your browser is open. They hold temporary data such as authentication status and current session identifiers so you can move between pages without having to re-enter credentials. These cookies are deleted automatically when the browser session ends.
Persistent cookies
Persistent cookies remain on your device after a session ends and are used to remember settings or preferences across visits. Persistence varies by purpose - some cookies expire after a short time, others remain longer to preserve settings like language choice or saved preferences.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies store choices you make on the site so you don’t have to set them again. Examples include preferred language, display theme and interface options. These do not track your activity across unrelated websites and are intended to make the site more convenient.
Analytics and performance cookies
Analytics cookies collect aggregated information about how the site is used, which pages are visited and whether errors occur. This data is used to measure page performance, spot technical problems, run tests and prioritise improvements. Where possible analytics data is aggregated or pseudonymised to protect privacy.
Preference and language settings
Cookies allow Stake Casino to remember your chosen language, currency display and other personalization settings so that the site loads with your preferences already applied. These settings can be changed at any time in your account or via the cookie settings control.
Login and session continuity
To keep you signed in safely, the site uses session and, when you choose, persistent tokens. These store minimal information required to maintain an authenticated session. Persistent login options should only be used on private devices. You can log out or clear saved sessions at any time from your account.
Device recognition
Cookies help Stake Casino recognise devices you regularly use to access the site. Device recognition supports smoother logins, faster load times and security checks that detect unusual activity. This does not replace standard authentication; it simply reduces repeated prompts on trusted devices.
Security-related cookies
Security cookies support fraud prevention and platform safety. They help detect suspicious behaviour, protect account access and support secure payment flows. These cookies are an important part of the site’s defensive measures and do not store sensitive personal data in plain form.
Browser storage technologies
In addition to cookies, the site may use browser storage like localStorage or sessionStorage to improve performance or temporarily save non-sensitive settings. Unlike cookies, localStorage can hold larger amounts of data and remains until cleared by you or by the site when no longer needed.
Third-party integrations
Stake Casino uses a number of third-party services such as analytics providers, game providers, payment processors and live chat vendors. These partners may set their own cookies when you interact with their components on our pages. Third-party cookies are governed by those providers’ policies and not by this policy, so you may see separate controls from them.
Marketing and communication preferences
Cookies can be used to remember your communication preferences and to show offers that match your interests. If you opt out of marketing cookies, you may still receive transactional messages related to your account, but promotional targeting and personalised offers will be reduced.
Cookie consent management
When you first visit Stake Casino you will be offered a cookie settings control. That control allows you to accept all cookies or choose which categories to allow. Your preference is stored so the site remembers your choice. You can change your selections at any time via the cookie settings link in the footer or from your account privacy controls.
Browser cookie controls
Most modern browsers let you view, block or delete cookies. You can use browser settings to block third-party cookies, clear stored cookies, or browse in private mode which limits persistent storage. Blocking cookies at the browser level may affect site behaviour and prevent some features from working properly.
Clearing or disabling cookies
If you clear or disable cookies some site features will be limited. You may need to sign in more often, lose saved preferences and see less personalised content. Clearing cookies also removes the cookie that stores your consent, so you may be asked to set preferences again on your next visit.
Site functionality impact when cookies are disabled
Disabling non-essential cookies mainly affects personalization, analytics and marketing. Disabling essential cookies may prevent login, payments, wallet access and play sessions. We recommend allowing essential cookies for secure operation and enabling the categories you find useful for a smoother experience.
Technical diagnostics and performance optimisation
Cookies and browser storage let Stake Casino collect performance data such as page load times and error reports. This technical information is used to prioritise fixes, optimise server response and improve game loading times. Diagnostic data is typically aggregated and used only to improve reliability.
Aggregated analytics information
Analytics data is processed in aggregate to show trends like popular pages or peak traffic times. Aggregated reports help refine game placement, promotional timing and platform layout without exposing individual user browsing histories.
How to manage cookies on Stake Casino
You can manage cookie settings in three places - the cookie banner on first visit, the cookie settings link in the site footer, and your account privacy panel. To change or withdraw consent, open cookie settings, update categories and save. Withdrawal of consent will be effective for future visits and may require clearing existing cookies.
Retention and storage periods
Different cookies have different retention periods depending on their function. Session cookies expire when you end a browsing session. Persistent cookies remain for a period determined by the cookie’s purpose. Where practical we limit retention to what is needed for functionality and performance.
Changes to this policy
Stake Casino may update this Cookies Policy to reflect changes in technology or legal requirements. We recommend checking this page periodically. Material changes to how we use cookies will be communicated via the site or through your account inbox where appropriate.
