Cookies Policy
Cookies are small text files that websites may store on your computer, phone, or tablet when you visit them. They can help remember your preferences, maintain website sessions, and improve your browsing experience. Jackpotjoy may also use similar technologies for functionality, security, analytics, and personalisation, depending on the services available.
What Are Cookies Used For?
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to:
Improve user experience: Remember preferences and help display relevant content.
Analyse website performance: Understand how visitors interact with the platform and identify areas for improvement.
Support security: Help maintain sessions, recognise suspicious activity, and protect account access.
Maintain functionality: Ensure that essential website features operate as intended.
Non-essential cookies may require your consent, depending on applicable laws.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies support the basic functions required to use the website. They may help with:
Session management: Maintain the information needed for an active browsing session.
Authentication: Support account login and logout processes.
Security: Help protect access to account-related features.
Navigation: Ensure that essential website functions work correctly as you move between pages.
These cookies generally cannot be disabled through a website's cookie preference settings when they are strictly necessary for the service requested.
Session Cookies
Session cookies are temporary and are generally removed when you close your browser or when the relevant session ends. Depending on the website's configuration, they may support:
Login and logout processes.
Temporary session information.
Navigation between pages.
Session timeout management.
Their exact duration and function depend on how the website implements them.
Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies may remain on your device for a defined period after you close your browser. They can help remember selected preferences, such as language settings or other website options, so you do not need to configure them again on every visit.
The retention period varies according to the purpose of each cookie. You can manage or delete persistent cookies through the available cookie controls or your browser settings.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies may remember choices you make while using the website and help provide a more consistent experience. Depending on the available features, they may support:
Remembering selected preferences.
Maintaining certain display settings.
Enabling enhanced website functions.
The specific features supported by these cookies depend on the platform's implementation.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Where used, analytics and performance cookies help measure how visitors interact with the website. The information may include page visits, navigation patterns, loading times, and technical errors.
These insights can help identify performance issues and improve website usability. Analytics data may be aggregated or otherwise processed to reduce its association with individual users, depending on the tools and settings used. The use of analytics cookies may require consent under applicable law.
Preference and Language Settings
Cookies or similar technologies may help remember language selections and other preferences. This can make the website easier to navigate and reduce the need to re-enter the same settings during future visits.
The availability of these features depends on the platform and your browser configuration.
Login and Session Continuity
Certain cookies may help maintain an active session while you navigate between pages or use account features. They can also support session expiry and authentication processes.
For security reasons, a website may require you to sign in again after a period of inactivity or when additional verification is necessary.
Device Recognition and Security Cookies
Some cookies or related technologies may support security checks by helping identify unusual access patterns or maintain session integrity. They may be used alongside other technical safeguards to reduce the risk of unauthorised account access.
Cookies alone do not guarantee account security. You should also protect your login credentials and avoid accessing your account on untrusted or shared devices without taking appropriate precautions.
Browser Storage Technologies
Websites may use browser storage technologies in addition to traditional cookies. Depending on their implementation, these may include:
IndexedDB: A browser feature that allows websites to store structured data locally.
Local storage: A mechanism for retaining selected information in the browser.
Cache technologies: Tools that temporarily store website resources to help pages load more efficiently.
These technologies differ from cookies, and their availability and use depend on the website's design. You can manage some stored data through your browser settings.
Third-Party Integrations
The website may use third-party services for functions such as analytics, advertising, embedded content, or security. These services may place their own cookies or use similar technologies, subject to their respective policies and applicable requirements.
Third-party technologies may include social media features, advertising services, or external technical providers. Review the relevant privacy and cookie notices to understand how these providers process information.
Marketing and Communication Preferences
Cookies and similar technologies may help support marketing features or remember selected preferences. Where applicable, marketing communications and non-essential tracking will be handled in accordance with your choices and relevant legal requirements.
You may be able to manage marketing preferences through your account settings, cookie consent controls, or the options provided in individual communications.
Cookie Consent Management
Where required by law, you may be asked to choose whether to allow non-essential cookies when visiting the website. Available settings may let you accept, reject, or customise certain categories of cookies.
You can review or change your preferences through the cookie management controls if the website provides them. Essential cookies may continue to operate where necessary to deliver requested services or maintain website security.
Browser Cookie Controls
Most modern browsers allow you to manage cookies through their privacy or settings menus. Depending on the browser, you may be able to block cookies, delete existing cookies, or configure restrictions for particular websites.
The available controls vary by browser and device. Consult your browser's help resources for instructions specific to your setup.
Clearing or Disabling Cookies
Deleting or blocking cookies may affect how some website features operate. For example:
You may be signed out of your account.
Saved preferences may need to be selected again.
Some features may not function as expected.
Certain pages or services may require additional authentication.
The impact depends on which cookies or storage technologies are disabled.
Website Functionality When Cookies Are Disabled
Some website functions may remain available without non-essential cookies, but essential cookies or related technologies may be necessary for particular features. Blocking all cookies can therefore affect navigation, account access, or session continuity.
You can adjust your browser settings to find a balance between privacy preferences and website functionality.
Technical Diagnostics and Performance Optimisation
Where applicable, cookies and similar technologies may help identify technical issues, measure page performance, and understand general patterns of website use. This information can support troubleshooting and help improve the reliability and accessibility of the platform.
The specific diagnostic tools used depend on the website's configuration.
Aggregated Analytics Information
Analytics tools may produce aggregated reports about page visits, navigation paths, loading times, and other performance indicators. Such reports can help identify broad usage trends and areas that may need improvement.
Whether information is anonymous or can be linked to an individual depends on the data collected and the processing methods used. The platform should handle this information in accordance with its Privacy Policy and applicable data protection requirements.
User Experience Improvements
Cookies and similar technologies may contribute to a more convenient browsing experience by supporting:
Remembered preferences and language settings.
More consistent website functionality.
