What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — whether it is a computer, smartphone, or tablet — when you visit a website. They are widely used across the internet to make websites function more efficiently, enhance user experience, and provide reporting information to site operators. Cookies can be either temporary (session cookies) or stored on your device for a longer period (persistent cookies).
How We Use Cookies
Sahara Sands Casino uses cookies for a variety of purposes to ensure you enjoy a seamless and secure gaming experience. Below is an overview of the types of cookies we use and why they matter.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our website. They enable core functionalities such as account authentication, security protocols, and navigation between pages. Without these cookies, certain services you have requested — such as logging into your account or processing transactions — cannot be provided. Essential cookies do not collect personal information for marketing purposes.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
We use performance cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies collect anonymised data about page visits, traffic sources, and user behaviour patterns. This information helps us improve the functionality and layout of our platform, identify technical issues, and deliver a better overall experience for our Australian players. We may use third-party analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to assist with this process.
Functionality Cookies
Functionality cookies allow our website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred language, display settings, or region. They provide enhanced and personalised features so that you do not need to re-enter your preferences each time you visit Sahara Sands Casino.
Advertising and Targeting Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver advertisements and promotional content that is relevant to your interests. They may also limit the number of times you see a particular advertisement and help us measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. Third-party advertising partners may set these cookies through our website, and they may use the information to build a profile of your interests across different sites.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our site are placed by third-party service providers who assist us with analytics, advertising, and payment processing. These providers operate under their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review their terms. We work only with reputable partners who comply with applicable data protection standards.
