The Pokies Net Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how The Pokies Net Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website from Australia or other locations. Cookies help us deliver core site functions, improve performance, remember your preferences, and show content that is more relevant to your interests.
You can control many cookie settings through your browser and, where available, through cookie preference tools on our site. Some cookies are necessary for the website to work properly, so blocking them may affect your ability to log in, navigate, or use certain features.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (for example, computer, mobile phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and store certain information about your actions or preferences over time.
Cookies can be:
- Session cookies - temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies - cookies that remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.
- First-party cookies - set by The Pokies Net Casino website.
- Third-party cookies - set by external providers whose tools or content are used on our site.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies (such as pixels, tags, SDKs, or local storage) that perform comparable functions, for example measuring interactions or remembering settings. For simplicity, this policy refers to all such technologies as "cookies".
Types of Cookies
The Pokies Net Casino uses different categories of cookies depending on their purpose. Not all cookies are used on every page, and cookie use can change as we update site features or introduce new tools.
Cookie categories we may use
- Essential cookies - required to provide the website and its secure areas.
- Performance cookies - used to understand how the website performs and how visitors interact with it.
- Functional cookies - help remember your preferences and choices.
- Marketing cookies - used to measure advertising effectiveness and, where applicable, provide more relevant promotions.
Some cookies are set only after you take an action, such as logging in, selecting preferences, or completing verification steps. Others are used to protect the website and users from suspicious activity.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the operation of The Pokies Net Casino website. They support key features such as page navigation, account access, security controls, and the prevention of misuse. Without these cookies, services you request (such as signing in or moving between secure pages) may not work as intended.
Typical uses of essential cookies
- Enabling core site functionality, including secure login sessions and account continuity.
- Maintaining security measures, such as detecting abnormal traffic patterns and protecting against automated attacks.
- Supporting load balancing and stable delivery of pages and features.
- Saving your cookie consent status where a cookie preference tool is provided.
Because essential cookies are required to provide the website, they are generally not optional. You can still block them using your browser settings, but doing so may cause parts of the website to fail or operate unpredictably.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us understand how visitors use The Pokies Net Casino. They allow us to measure and improve site performance, identify errors, and test changes to the user experience. These cookies typically collect information in aggregated form, such as which pages are visited most often or whether users encounter error messages.
How performance cookies may be used
- Measuring page load times, navigation paths, and interaction patterns.
- Identifying technical issues, broken links, or failed requests.
- Testing and evaluating improvements to site layout and functionality.
- Understanding which devices and browsers our visitors use to improve compatibility.
We use performance insights to maintain a stable and user-friendly experience, including during peak traffic periods. Where required, performance cookies may be placed only after you have expressed your preferences through available cookie controls.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies support personalised features and help the site remember choices you make. They are not strictly required for the website to operate, but they can improve usability and consistency across sessions.
Examples of functional cookie uses
- Remembering language or region selections (where available).
- Keeping certain interface preferences, such as display settings.
- Supporting convenience features, such as keeping you logged in on a trusted device (subject to security controls).
- Enabling certain interactive tools and preference-based features.
If you disable functional cookies, some preferences may not be saved, and parts of the experience may revert to default settings each time you visit.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to understand how our promotions perform and, where applicable, to show content that is more relevant to your interests. These cookies can be set by The Pokies Net Casino or by third parties that provide advertising or measurement services.
How marketing cookies may operate
- Measuring whether you reached our site after clicking an advertisement.
- Limiting how often you see the same promotion (frequency capping).
- Helping tailor promotional content based on general interaction patterns.
- Evaluating campaign performance across different channels and audiences.
Marketing cookies do not typically store information such as your password or payment details. They may, however, link a browser or device to previous visits or interactions. Depending on your settings, disabling these cookies may reduce the relevance of promotions you see, but it should not prevent you from accessing standard site content.

Site-level cookie preferences
Where The Pokies Net Casino provides a cookie banner or preference centre, you can use it to accept or reject non-essential cookie categories. Your selection may be remembered using an essential cookie so that your preferences are applied on future visits from the same device and browser.
Important notes
- If you use multiple browsers or devices, you may need to update your cookie settings on each of them.
- Deleting cookies may reset saved preferences and require you to adjust settings again.
- Blocking essential cookies may affect login, responsible gaming tools, site security checks, and other core functions.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on The Pokies Net Casino may be set by third parties. This can happen when we use external tools to provide analytics, security protections, advertising measurement, embedded content, or other operational services.
Third-party cookies are governed by the third party's own policies and settings, not this Cookies Policy. We encourage you to review relevant third-party documentation to understand how they use cookies and how you can control them.
Common situations where third-party cookies may appear
- Analytics services that help us understand traffic and improve performance.
- Advertising or attribution tools that measure campaign effectiveness.
- Fraud prevention and security services that help protect accounts and transactions.
- Embedded media or interactive features supplied by external platforms.
Where practical, we aim to use third-party tools that support appropriate controls, minimise data collection, and align with the purpose for which they are implemented. However, we do not control third-party cookie technologies once they are deployed through external services.
Policy Updates
The Pokies Net Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our website, tools, or operational practices. Updates may also be made to improve clarity or to address evolving expectations around online privacy and transparency.
When we make material changes, we may provide an additional notice on the website, such as through a banner, pop-up, or updated cookie preferences prompt. Your continued use of the website after an update means you accept the revised policy to the extent permitted by applicable rules and your selected cookie settings.
If you want to stay informed, we recommend reviewing this page periodically and revisiting your cookie preferences when prompted.
