Shazam Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Shazam Casino uses cookies and similar technologies on our website when you browse, sign in, or use our services from Australia. It is intended to help you understand what these technologies do, why we use them, and the choices available to you.
Cookies support essential site features, improve performance, remember preferences, and help us understand which parts of Shazam Casino are most useful to players. Some cookies are set by us, and some are set by carefully selected third parties that provide functionality such as analytics or fraud prevention.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (for example, a computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and store certain information about your visit, such as language choices, session identifiers, and other preferences.
We also use similar technologies that may operate like cookies, including local storage, software development kits in certain environments, and pixel tags. For simplicity, this policy refers to all such technologies as “cookies” unless otherwise stated.
Cookies may be:
- Session cookies, which expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies, which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
- First-party cookies, which are set by Shazam Casino.
- Third-party cookies, which are set by other organisations that provide services to us.
Types of Cookies
Shazam Casino uses different categories of cookies depending on their purpose. Some are necessary for the site to operate, while others help us enhance usability, measure performance, and deliver marketing that is more relevant to players.
Cookie category overview
- Essential cookies: required for core site functions, such as secure login and payments.
- Performance cookies: help us understand how the website is used and how it performs.
- Functional cookies: remember your preferences and enable enhanced features.
- Marketing cookies: help us and third parties deliver and measure advertising.
Where applicable, we aim to offer cookie preference controls so you can make choices about non-essential cookies. Your options can also depend on your browser and device settings.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are used to operate the Shazam Casino website and provide services you request. Without these cookies, key features may not work properly, and you may be unable to sign in or use account and cashier functions.
Examples of what essential cookies may support include:
- Keeping you logged in during a session and maintaining account authentication.
- Enabling navigation and access to secure areas, including responsible access controls.
- Supporting payments, withdrawals, and transaction integrity checks.
- Preventing fraudulent activity and protecting the platform from abusive traffic.
- Ensuring the website loads correctly and distributing traffic across infrastructure.
Because essential cookies are needed for the service to function, they are generally enabled by default when you use our website. If you block essential cookies through your browser settings, some or all parts of Shazam Casino may become unavailable.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us understand how visitors use Shazam Casino so we can improve the site’s design, content, and reliability. These cookies may collect information such as pages visited, time spent on key screens, error messages, and how users move through the site.
We use performance insights to:
- Measure site stability and speed across devices and browsers.
- Identify broken pages or features that may require fixes.
- Assess which games, promotions, or information pages are most useful to players.
- Test changes to navigation and layout to improve usability.
Performance cookies are not intended to directly identify you by name. However, some identifiers may be treated as personal information depending on context and applicable rules. We take a cautious approach and use performance data primarily in aggregated or statistical form.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow Shazam Casino to remember choices you make and provide enhanced features. They improve the experience by keeping certain preferences consistent, which can reduce the need to re-enter settings each time you visit.
Functional cookies may be used to:
- Remember language, display, or region preferences where available.
- Store user interface settings, such as layout preferences.
- Assist with customer experience features, including the way content is presented.
- Maintain certain safer-gambling or account interface settings you select.
If you disable functional cookies, some personalisation features may not work as intended, and you may experience a more limited or less convenient version of the website.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies help deliver advertising and communications that may be more relevant to you, and they assist with measuring the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. These cookies can be set by Shazam Casino and, in some cases, by third parties that provide advertising and measurement services.
Marketing cookies may be used to:
- Limit the number of times you see a particular advertisement.
- Measure whether an advertisement or campaign resulted in a visit or registration.
- Build audiences based on broad interests derived from browsing behaviour.
- Support responsible targeting and avoid showing certain content where restrictions apply.
Some marketing technologies can recognise your device across different websites and apps. If you prefer not to be tracked for advertising purposes, you can use the controls described in this policy. Please note that disabling marketing cookies does not remove advertising; it may simply make ads less relevant.
Managing Cookies
You can manage cookies in several ways. The most effective approach is usually to combine Shazam Casino’s cookie preference options (where available) with your browser and device controls.
Cookie preference settings
If our website provides a cookie banner or preference centre, you can use it to accept, reject, or customise non-essential cookies. Your selections may be stored so that the site can remember your choices for future visits. If you clear cookies, you may need to set your preferences again.
Browser controls
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through settings. Depending on your browser, you may be able to:
- Delete existing cookies stored on your device.
- Block all cookies or only third-party cookies.
- Allow cookies only from specific websites.
- Receive a warning before a cookie is stored.
Because browser options vary, you should consult your browser’s help menu for instructions. If you block or delete cookies used by Shazam Casino, some features may not work, including login, payments, and certain security protections.
Device-level controls
On mobile devices, you may have additional controls in your operating system settings. Some platforms provide options to limit ad tracking or reset advertising identifiers. These options are managed by your device provider rather than Shazam Casino, and the available settings can change over time.
Do Not Track and similar signals
Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” or similar signals. There is no single standard for how websites must respond to these signals. Where practical, Shazam Casino will consider such signals alongside other privacy and cookie controls, but browser-based signals may not automatically disable all non-essential cookies.
Third-Party Cookies
Shazam Casino may allow third-party service providers to set cookies or similar technologies when you use our website. These cookies are typically used to provide services on our behalf, such as analytics, security monitoring, payment processing support, customer experience tooling, or advertising measurement.
Third-party cookies are governed by the relevant third party’s policies and settings, not this policy. However, we aim to work with providers that follow appropriate confidentiality and security practices and that support reasonable controls over cookies.
Examples of third-party cookie use cases can include:
- Analytics tools that help us understand site usage and improve performance.
- Security and anti-fraud services that detect suspicious behaviour and protect accounts.
- Advertising and measurement partners that help manage campaign reporting.
- Embedded content or integrations that enable certain features and may set their own cookies.
If you disable third-party cookies in your browser, some third-party features may not function as intended. You can also review the privacy and cookie information provided by those third parties to learn more about their practices and opt-out options where offered.
Policy Updates
Shazam Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, website functionality, or how cookies are used. When we make changes, we will publish the updated policy on this page. The revised version applies from the time it is posted.
If you continue to use Shazam Casino after an update, it means you understand the updated description of how cookies are used. We encourage you to revisit this page periodically to stay informed about your choices and the tools available for managing cookies.
