Our Cookie Policy
This page explains every cookie wildsino-aud.com sets in your browser, why we set it, how long it stays, and how you switch categories off. We keep the wording plain on purpose: you should not need a law degree to control your own data.
What Cookies Actually Are
A cookie is a small text file a website places in your browser when you visit. It stores a label, nothing more: a session ID, a language choice, a flag that says you have seen our banner. Your browser sends that label back to us with each request so the site can remember you between pages.
Cookies are not programs. They cannot read files on your device, install anything, or access accounts on other sites. Browser settings and a single control panel in Chrome, Safari or Firefox govern them completely, and you can delete every one of them in about three clicks.
The Four Cookie Types We Use
Strictly necessary
These keep wildsino-aud.com working. Without them you cannot log in, stay logged in between pages, or complete a deposit. Session cookies identify your account after you enter your credentials; authentication cookies keep you signed in on a trusted device; security cookies block fraudulent login attempts and rate-limit abuse. We never ask consent for these, because the site breaks without them.
| Cookie type | Purpose | Example names | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Login, sessions, security | wildsino_session, wildsino_auth, wildsino_csrf | Session to 30 days |
| Functional | Language, currency, preferences | wildsino_lang, wildsino_cur, wildsino_prefs | 90 days |
| Analytics | Aggregated behaviour stats | wildsino_stats | 30 days |
| Marketing | Retargeting and campaigns | wildsino_ads, wildsino_ref | 90 days |
Functional
Functional cookies remember choices you have already made: English as your language, AUD as your currency, sound off in game previews, the sidebar collapsed or expanded. Deleting them costs you convenience, not function, since the site simply asks again next visit.
Analytics
Our analytics cookies tell us, in aggregate, which pages players open, where they drop off during registration and how long a deposit flow takes. We read the totals, not your identity: the data is aggregated and never linked to your account balance or game history.
Marketing
Marketing cookies let us measure whether a campaign brought you here and limit how often you see our banners. With consent, they support retargeting, so an ad for a game you viewed does not follow you across the web indefinitely. This is the only category we treat as fully optional from the moment the banner appears.
Third Parties We Permit
Some cookies on wildsino-aud.com belong to companies we work with, not to us. Three categories are involved: analytics providers that measure site performance on our behalf, advertising networks that run and measure our campaigns, and payment providers whose flows need a short-lived technical cookie to process a PayID or card transaction securely.
Each third party gets only the data it needs for its job, and each publishes its own cookie policy covering retention and opt-out. No third party on our site receives your identity, your balance or your game history. If a provider changes what it collects, we re-review the arrangement before it stays on our pages.
How You Control Cookies Here
On our site
Our cookie banner appears on your first visit. Accept all, or open the settings panel and toggle each category separately; strictly necessary cookies stay on either way, the other three are your call. You can reopen that panel any time from the footer link and change or withdraw consent in a single click, with no effect on your account, balance or bonuses.
In your browser
Blocking cookies at the browser level works regardless of what any site says.
- Chrome: Settings, Privacy and security, Third-party cookies, then block or limit per site.
- Safari: Preferences, Privacy, Manage Website Data, and enable Prevent Cross-Site Tracking.
- Firefox: Settings, Privacy and Security, Enhanced Tracking Protection, then choose Standard or Strict.
- Edge: Settings, Cookies and site permissions, block third-party cookies or add site exceptions.
What blocking changes
Blocking strictly necessary cookies breaks login and deposits, full stop. Blocking functional cookies means re-entering your language and currency each visit. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies changes nothing you can see: the games run the same and your bonuses stay intact, we just lose visibility into traffic patterns and campaign performance.
How Long Cookies Persist
Every cookie on our site carries an expiry date, and none of them outlive their purpose. Session cookies vanish the moment you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay for a fixed term, and the shortest useful one always wins: a 30-day analytics cookie never stretches to a year just because it could.
Deleting cookies at any point works the same as expiry: your consent preferences reset, so the banner will reappear on your next visit, and that is the intended behaviour, not a bug.
| Cookie category | Lifetime | Renewal |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary (session) | Until browser close | Set fresh each visit |
| Strictly necessary (auth) | 30 days | Renewed on login |
| Functional | 90 days | Renewed when you change a preference |
| Analytics | 30 days | Renewed each visit while enabled |
| Marketing | 90 days | Renewed only with valid consent |
Changes to This Policy
We update this page when we add a cookie, remove one, or change a retention period, and the revised version goes live immediately with a new effective date at the top. If a change widens what we collect, we show the consent banner again and ask before the new cookie runs. Questions about anything here go to [email protected], where our team answers around the clock.
Frequently asked questions
Can I play at Wildsino Casino with all cookies blocked?
No. Strictly necessary cookies handle login and deposits, so a fully blocked browser cannot hold a session. Allow at least first-party cookies for wildsino-aud.com and the games, cashier and account pages will work normally.
Does rejecting marketing cookies cost me bonuses?
It never touches your welcome bonus, reload offers or loyalty tier. You may simply hear about a promotion later, since we cannot count on campaign cookies to show it to you.
Do you sell the data cookies collect?
No. We use analytics totals to improve the site and nothing more, and third parties get only what their specific function requires. Your identity, balance and game history stay out of every cookie we set.
Where do I change my consent after accepting?
Open the cookie settings link in the site footer. The same panel from your first visit reappears, and one click withdraws or changes consent for any non-essential category.
