Cookie Policy

Welcome to thestarcasino.top. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website for visitors located in Australia. By accessing or using the website, you agree that we can store and access cookies as described below. If you do not agree, please adjust your browser settings or refrain from using the website.

This policy sits alongside our privacy practices and forms part of our terms governing your use of the website. You must be at least 18 years of age and legally permitted to use online services in your jurisdiction. If you continue to browse or use the website, you are deemed to have accepted this Cookie Policy and any updates published here from time to time.

What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small data files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work, to remember your preferences, to enhance user experience, and to provide analytics and advertising insights. We may also use related technologies such as pixels, web beacons, device identifiers, SDKs, local storage, and JavaScript to achieve similar purposes.

Some cookies are set by us (first-party cookies) and others may be set by service providers who support our operations (third-party cookies). Cookies may be stored for the duration of your visit (session cookies) or remain on your device after you close your browser (persistent cookies). We categorise the cookies we use as follows:

Strictly necessary cookies: Essential for core site functionality, security, fraud prevention, and network management. Without these cookies the site may not operate properly. These cannot be disabled via our systems.
Performance and analytics cookies: Help us understand how users interact with the website, measure traffic, diagnose errors, and improve content. Data is often aggregated and does not directly identify you.
Functionality cookies: Remember your choices (such as language, region, or display settings) to provide a more personalised experience.
Targeting and advertising cookies: Used to deliver more relevant content and measure the effectiveness of promotional communications. They may record your visit, pages viewed, and links followed.
Social and interaction technologies: Enable features such as content sharing, embedded media, and engagement tools. These may be set by our service providers to support these features.

Where cookies involve the collection of personal information (as defined under Australian law), we handle that information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Some uses may be based on your consent, which you may withdraw at any time as described below.

How We Use Cookies on thestarcasino.top

We use cookies to operate and secure the website, remember your settings, analyse performance, prevent fraud, and deliver relevant content. This helps us provide you with a reliable, fast, and consistent experience and to refine the website over time. We may combine cookie information with other data we hold when permitted by applicable law and the APPs.

Service providers working on our behalf may place and read cookies to provide analytics, security, and advertising support. These partners act under our instructions and/or their own privacy terms. Some cookies and data may be processed outside Australia. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including contractual protections and due diligence, consistent with the APPs.

We aim to respect user preferences. However, at this time the website may not respond to all browser-based “Do Not Track” signals. We periodically review relevant standards and may update our approach as technologies and regulations evolve.

Your Consent and How to Control Cookies

When you first visit the website, you may see a banner or notice seeking your consent to non-essential cookies. You can accept, reject, or manage categories of cookies at any time via your browser or device settings, and (where available) through our on-site preferences tools. If you disable certain cookies, parts of the website may not function as intended.

Browser settings: Most browsers let you block, delete, or receive alerts about cookies. Check your browser’s help section for instructions on managing cookie controls and clearing stored data.
Private/Incognito mode: Using private browsing can limit persistent storage but may reduce site functionality during your session.
Device settings: On some devices you can restrict ad tracking or reset identifiers used for interest-based content.
On-site tools: If we provide a cookie preferences center, use it to adjust non-essential cookie categories at any time.
Email us: You can contact us at [email protected] for assistance with cookie-related questions. We aim to respond within a reasonable period.

Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal. Disabling cookies does not remove cookies already stored; you will need to delete them manually via your browser or device controls.

Data Retention, Security, and International Transfers

We retain cookie data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Retention periods vary by cookie type and business need. We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information collected via cookies; however, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If we become aware of a data incident involving personal information, we will take steps required by applicable law.

International transfers: Cookie data may be processed in countries other than Australia. We use safeguards designed to protect your information, and we remain accountable for handling personal information under the APPs when engaging service providers.
Your rights: Subject to the APPs, you may request access to or correction of personal information we hold about you. Contact us at [email protected] to make a request or raise a concern.
Complaints: If you are not satisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Australian privacy regulator. We will cooperate with any investigation and seek to resolve matters promptly.

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, law, or our practices. Changes take effect when posted on this page with an updated “effective” date. Please check back regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies.

Additional Terms, Liability, and Governing Law

By using the website, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old, will comply with local laws, and will not misuse the website. We provide the website on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we exclude all warranties and disclaim liability for any loss or damage arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, the website or cookies, including without limitation indirect or consequential losses. Nothing in this Cookie Policy limits any non-excludable rights or remedies under the Australian Consumer Law or other applicable legislation.

This Cookie Policy is governed by the laws of New South Wales and the Commonwealth of Australia. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this policy shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that jurisdiction. If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions will continue in full force. For questions, requests, or complaints regarding cookies or this policy, contact: [email protected].
