Xl Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Xl Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use our website and related online services. It describes the purposes these technologies serve, the choices available to you, and how they may affect your experience.
Xl Casino aims to use cookies responsibly and only to support website operation, security, performance, personalisation, and relevant communications. This policy should be read together with our other website terms and privacy information. Xl Casino services are intended for users aged 18 and over.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise a particular browser or device and remember certain information about your visit. Cookies may be stored temporarily for the duration of a browsing session or remain on your device for a defined period.
Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, and software development tools. These technologies can perform functions comparable to cookies, such as recording whether content has been viewed, remembering settings, or helping us understand how visitors interact with Xl Casino.
Cookies do not normally contain information that directly identifies you by name. However, information collected through cookies may be associated with account, device, or usage information where this is necessary for the purposes described in this policy.
Types of Cookies
Cookies used by Xl Casino can be grouped according to their purpose and lifespan. Some are placed directly by Xl Casino, while others may be placed by carefully selected service providers that support website functionality or measurement.
- Session cookies are temporary and normally expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you remove them through your browser settings.
- First-party cookies are set by Xl Casino or by a service operating on our behalf.
- Third-party cookies are set by an external provider whose services are used on parts of the website.
The categories below explain the principal purposes for which these technologies may be used. A single cookie may support more than one activity, depending on how it is configured.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are required for core website functions. Without them, certain parts of the Xl Casino website may not operate correctly or securely. These cookies generally do not require consent where they are strictly necessary to provide a service requested by you.
Essential cookies may be used to:
- Maintain a secure connection while you browse or sign in.
- Keep track of information entered during a session.
- Support account access and authentication processes.
- Apply security controls and help identify unusual or potentially harmful activity.
- Remember cookie preferences and consent choices.
- Route website requests through appropriate technical systems.
Disabling essential cookies may prevent access to account features, interrupt gameplay-related functions, or cause pages and security tools to behave unexpectedly. These cookies are not used to create a profile of your general browsing activity for advertising purposes.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help Xl Casino understand how visitors use the website. They provide information such as which pages are visited, how long pages take to load, whether content is functioning as intended, and where users may encounter an error.
The information collected through these cookies is generally used in aggregated or statistical form. It can help us improve navigation, test changes, monitor reliability, and identify technical issues before they affect a larger number of users.
Performance cookies may record details about the browser, device type, approximate location, referral source, and actions taken on the website. They are intended to measure website use rather than identify individual visitors directly. Where consent is required for a particular performance tool, the tool will operate according to the choices available through our cookie controls.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices and provide a more convenient experience. They are not always essential, but they can make the website more consistent with your preferences and device.
Examples of functional uses include remembering language or display settings, retaining selected interface preferences, and recognising choices made during a previous visit. These cookies may also support features that depend on a particular browser or device configuration.
If you decline functional cookies, you may still be able to use the main Xl Casino website. However, some preferences may need to be entered again, and certain optional features may not operate in the way intended. Functional cookies do not give Xl Casino permission to bypass your choices or access information unrelated to the service they support.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to understand interactions with promotional content and, where permitted, help make advertising or communications more relevant. They may record visits to the website, campaign links followed, or whether a particular advertisement or message has been viewed.
These cookies can be placed by Xl Casino or by third-party advertising and measurement providers. They may be used to limit repeated advertisements, evaluate campaign performance, measure conversions, or present promotional material based on general interests and website activity.
Marketing cookies are optional where applicable. If you do not allow them, you may still see promotional content, but it may be less tailored to your interests. Refusing marketing cookies does not automatically unsubscribe you from account or service messages that are necessary to manage your relationship with Xl Casino.
Xl Casino does not use cookies as a substitute for responsible account controls. Marketing activity remains subject to applicable preferences, account settings, and any restrictions that apply to communications or promotional offers.
Managing Cookies
You can manage cookie preferences through the cookie banner or preference tool made available on the Xl Casino website, where applicable. You may accept all optional cookies, reject optional categories, or adjust your choices individually. Essential cookies may continue to operate because they are needed for basic website and security functions.
You can also control cookies through your browser. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete existing cookies, block cookies from particular websites, or prevent cookies from being accepted in the future. Browser instructions vary, so you should consult the help or privacy settings provided by your browser manufacturer.
Removing or blocking cookies may affect saved preferences, account access, page performance, and other website functions. If you use more than one browser or device, your cookie choices may need to be applied separately on each one. Changes to browser settings may also affect websites other than Xl Casino.
Where consent is requested for optional cookies, you may withdraw or change that consent by returning to the available cookie settings. Withdrawal will not usually affect processing that took place before your preference was changed, and it will not remove information that must be retained for legitimate operational, security, or legal purposes.
Third-Party Cookies
Some website functions may be supported by third-party providers. These providers may place cookies or use similar technologies to deliver services such as security, analytics, technical hosting, customer support tools, payment-related functionality, or campaign measurement.
Third-party providers may process information under their own privacy policies and terms. Xl Casino does not control every aspect of a third party's technology, including changes to its cookies, retention practices, or processing methods. We review the services used on our website with the aim of ensuring that they are appropriate for the functions they provide.
Third-party cookies may allow a provider to recognise your browser when it visits other websites that use the same provider. The availability and scope of this functionality depend on the provider, your settings, and applicable technical or privacy controls. You should review the relevant provider information if you want to understand how a particular third party handles data.
If you have a question about cookies or your preferences, you can contact the Xl Casino support team at [email protected]. Please avoid sending passwords, payment details, or other sensitive account information in an initial enquiry.
Policy Updates
Xl Casino may update this Cookies Policy when our website, technologies, service providers, or operational practices change. We may also revise the wording to improve clarity or reflect developments in applicable standards and guidance.
When changes are made, the updated version will be published on the relevant website page with a revised date or other suitable indication where appropriate. If a change materially affects how optional cookies are used, we will provide an appropriate notice or request updated choices where required.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically so that you remain informed about the technologies used by Xl Casino and the choices available to you. Your continued use of the website after an update does not remove any consent options that remain available through the cookie preference controls.
