Cookie Policy
Last updated
This policy explains how Casino Away GamStop uses cookies and similar technologies, the categories of cookie that may be set, and how you can control or disable them. It should be read alongside our privacy policy. The specific cookies listed below are placeholders to be confirmed once the live site’s tools are finalised.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. When you return, the site can read that file to remember something about your previous visit, such as a preference or whether you have already given consent. Cookies cannot run programs or carry viruses, and most hold only a short identifier rather than personal information. Similar technologies, such as local storage and tracking pixels, work in comparable ways and are covered by this policy where used.
Categories of cookies on this site
Cookies on this site fall into four categories. Only the first is set automatically; the others are set only if you give consent.
Strictly necessary
Required for the site to function and to remember your cookie choices. These cannot be switched off through a consent banner because the site cannot work properly without them.
Functional
Remember preferences such as display or language settings to improve your experience. Set only with consent.
Analytical
Help us understand, in aggregate, how visitors use the site so we can improve it. Set only with consent.
Marketing
Used to measure or tailor advertising. This site is non-commercial and does not currently run advertising, so marketing cookies are not expected to be used; if that changes, they will be added here and set only with consent.
Cookies we may set
The table below lists specific cookies. The names, purposes and durations are placeholders to be replaced with the actual cookies in use on the live site.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
| [consent_status] | Stores your cookie consent choices | 12 months | Strictly necessary |
| [session_id] | Maintains your session while browsing | Session (deleted on close) | Strictly necessary |
| [pref_settings] | Remembers display preferences | 6 months | Functional |
| [analytics_id] | Aggregated usage measurement | Up to 24 months | Analytical |

Changes to this policy
We may update this cookie policy as the site’s tools change or to reflect changes in the law. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last revised, and the cookie list will be kept in step with the cookies actually in use.
