Joe Fortune Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Joe Fortune Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website from Australia or elsewhere. It describes what these technologies do, why we use them, and the choices you have to manage them.
If you have questions about this Cookies Policy or how your preferences are applied, you can contact Joe Fortune Casino at [email protected].
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (such as a computer, mobile phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They help the website recognise your device, remember certain information about your visit, and support features such as logging in, keeping your session active, or storing preferences.
Cookies can be “session cookies” (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent cookies” (stored for a longer period, depending on their purpose and your browser settings). Similar technologies may include local storage, pixels, and software development kits (SDKs) used in mobile environments. In this policy, we refer to all of these as “cookies” unless otherwise stated.
Types of Cookies
Joe Fortune Casino uses cookies for different purposes depending on the feature being provided. Some cookies are set by us (first-party cookies). Others may be set by third parties that provide services to us (third-party cookies).
For clarity, cookies used on our website generally fall into the following categories:
- Essential cookies: required for the website to operate and to provide core functionality.
- Performance cookies: help us understand how the website is used and how it performs.
- Functional cookies: support enhanced features and personalisation.
- Marketing cookies: used to deliver and measure advertising and promotional communications (where used and where permitted).
The specific cookies in use can change over time as the website evolves, including when we add, remove, or update features.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies enable core website operations. Without them, Joe Fortune Casino may not function correctly, and certain services you request cannot be provided. These cookies are typically used to:
- Maintain your session and keep you logged in as you navigate between pages.
- Support account authentication and help protect against unauthorised access.
- Enable security features, such as detecting suspicious activity and helping to prevent abuse.
- Remember key choices that are necessary for the service to work (for example, cookie consent status, where applicable).
- Support load balancing and basic performance management to keep the website stable.
Essential cookies do not exist to show you advertising. Because they are required for the site to function, disabling them may impact your ability to use parts of the website, including account-related areas.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us understand how visitors use Joe Fortune Casino, which pages are visited, and how users move through the website. This information helps us improve site reliability, identify errors, and enhance the user experience.
Performance cookies and similar analytics tools may collect information such as:
- Pages visited and time spent on each page.
- Referring pages (for example, how you arrived at our website).
- Clicks, scrolling behaviour, and general interaction patterns.
- Device and browser information (such as screen size or browser type).
- Technical diagnostics (such as page loading times and error events).
We aim to use performance data in a way that supports aggregated reporting and service improvement. Where identifiers are used, they are generally designed to distinguish devices or sessions rather than to directly identify you by name.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies support features that make the website more convenient and tailored to you. They are not strictly necessary for the website to run, but they can improve your experience and reduce the need to re-enter choices.
Functional cookies may be used to:
- Remember language, region, or display preferences where the website offers these options.
- Save interface settings and accessibility-related selections to improve usability.
- Store limited details that make features work smoothly (for example, remembering that a notification has been dismissed).
- Support customer-facing tools, such as live chat widgets, where enabled.
If you disable functional cookies, some personalisation and convenience features may not work as intended, and your experience may be less consistent across visits.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies (sometimes called “targeting” cookies) may be used to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and to show content that may be more relevant to your interests. Depending on how the website is configured and the services in use, marketing cookies can also limit how often you see a particular advertisement and help us understand whether a promotion resulted in a visit or action.
These cookies may collect information such as:
- Your interactions with advertisements or promotional pages.
- Whether you came to Joe Fortune Casino from an ad or affiliate link.
- General indicators of interest based on browsing behaviour on our site.
Marketing cookies are commonly set by third-party advertising networks or service providers. If these cookies are used, the third parties may combine information from our website with information from other websites or services, subject to their own policies and your settings. Where consent mechanisms are presented, marketing cookies are typically controlled through those mechanisms and your browser controls.
Managing Cookies
You can manage cookies through your device and browser settings. The options available depend on the browser you use, and they may change over time as browser providers update controls. Common ways to manage cookies include:
- Blocking cookies: you can configure your browser to block some or all cookies.
- Deleting cookies: you can delete cookies stored on your device, which may sign you out or reset preferences.
- Using private browsing modes: these modes can reduce persistence by deleting session data when you close the window.
- Managing site permissions: some browsers allow cookie controls on a site-by-site basis.
If our website provides a cookie preferences tool, you can use it to adjust optional cookie categories (such as performance, functional, or marketing cookies). Essential cookies generally cannot be turned off through preference tools because they are needed to operate the website and to provide services you request.
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect your experience on Joe Fortune Casino. For example, some pages may not load properly, preferences may not be saved, and certain security checks may not function as expected. If you use multiple devices or browsers, you will need to update your choices on each one.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third parties that provide services to Joe Fortune Casino. These third parties may include analytics providers, security and fraud-prevention vendors, advertising technology providers, payment-related service tools, and customer support features (such as communication widgets). Third-party cookies can help deliver the services we use to operate and improve the website.
Key points about third-party cookies:
- Third parties may process information collected via their cookies under their own privacy and cookie policies.
- We aim to select service providers that support appropriate controls and security measures, but we do not control how third parties use cookies once set.
- Where cookie consent tools are offered, your selections may limit certain third-party cookies, subject to technical constraints and the category of cookie.
- Blocking third-party cookies in your browser may reduce tracking across sites, but it can also affect embedded features and site functionality.
When we use third-party tools, we do so to support operations such as measuring site performance, preventing misuse, and improving the reliability of the services offered to players. We do not treat third-party providers as owners of your relationship with Joe Fortune Casino, and we encourage you to review their policies to understand how they handle data.
Policy Updates
Joe Fortune Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, website features, or our operational needs. When we make changes, we will post the updated policy on this page. Any updates apply from the time they are published unless otherwise stated.
If changes are significant, we may take additional steps to bring them to your attention, such as providing a notice on the website or prompting you to review updated cookie preferences where a consent mechanism is used. We recommend checking this page periodically to stay informed about how cookies are used on Joe Fortune Casino.
