What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the website owners. Cookies can be temporary, known as session cookies, which are erased when you close your browser, or permanent, known as persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They serve various functions, from remembering your login details to understanding how you interact with a website, allowing for a more personalised and efficient user experience.
How We Use Cookies
At Spinko, we use cookies for several important reasons. These reasons include ensuring the proper functioning of our platform, enhancing your user experience, analysing site performance, and delivering relevant advertising. Cookies help us remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand which parts of our site are most popular. This data allows us to continually improve our services and tailor our offerings to better meet your needs as a player. We process information collected through cookies in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies, also known as strictly necessary cookies, are fundamental to the operation of the Spinko website. Without these cookies, certain core functionalities, such as logging into secure areas, making deposits, or accessing your game history, would not be possible. They enable basic features like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. These cookies do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing purposes or to remember where you have been on the internet. Your consent is not required for these cookies as they are indispensable for providing the service you have requested.
- Authentication Cookies: These cookies identify you as a logged-in user, allowing you to access your account and participate in games.
- Security Cookies: These help protect against fraudulent activities and ensure the security of your account and transactions.
- Session Management Cookies: These maintain your session state, preventing you from being logged out unexpectedly.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies collect information about how visitors use the Spinko website, such as which pages are visited most often, the time spent on each page, and if users encounter error messages. This data is aggregated and anonymised, meaning it cannot be used to identify you personally. We use this information to understand user behaviour, identify areas for improvement, and optimise the performance and design of our platform. By understanding how our site is used, we can make informed decisions to enhance the overall user experience for all Spinko players.
- Performance Monitoring: These cookies help us track website load times and identify technical issues.
- User Behaviour Tracking: We use these to understand popular content and user navigation paths.
- A/B Testing: Sometimes, these cookies help us test new features or website layouts to see which performs better.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow the Spinko website to remember choices you make, such as your username, language preference, or the region you are in. They provide enhanced, more personal features. For instance, if you customise parts of the website, these cookies can remember those preferences. They can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other parts of web pages that you can customise. The information these cookies collect may be anonymised, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
- Preference Cookies: These store your preferred settings, like language or currency.
- Remember Me Cookies: If you opt for it, these remember your login details for future visits.
Marketing and Advertising Cookies
Marketing and advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are typically placed by third-party advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited our website and this information may be shared with other organisations, such as advertisers. This allows Spinko to display targeted advertising on other sites you visit, based on your activity on our platform.
- Targeting Cookies: These track your browsing habits to deliver more relevant ads.
- Retargeting Cookies: These remind you of our services if you have previously shown interest.
- Social Media Cookies: These enable sharing content from our site on social networks.
Third-Party Cookies
In addition to our own cookies, Spinko also uses various third-party cookies. These cookies are set by domains other than Spinko and are used for a range of purposes, including analytics, advertising, and providing interactive content. For example, we might use Google Analytics to help us understand how our site is used, or embed content from social media platforms that set their own cookies. We do not control the setting of these third-party cookies, so we recommend you check the respective third-party websites for more information about their cookie policies and how to manage them.
How Long Cookies Last
The duration for which a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a "session" or "persistent" cookie. Session cookies are temporary and typically expire once you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period, which can range from a few minutes to several years, or until you manually delete them. At Spinko, the lifespan of our cookies is determined by their purpose. For example, essential cookies might be session-based, while certain analytics or preference cookies could be persistent to remember your settings for future visits. The exact duration for each cookie is detailed within your browser's cookie settings.
Managing and Disabling Cookies
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. However, please be aware that disabling cookies may prevent you from taking full advantage of the Spinko website and some features may not function correctly. You can typically find these settings in the "options" or "preferences" menu of your browser. For mobile devices, you may need to consult your device manual or settings for instructions on managing cookies. You can also opt out of specific third-party advertising cookies through various industry-standard tools and websites.
Do Not Track
Some web browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As a result, Spinko does not currently respond to DNT browser signals. However, we respect your privacy choices and provide clear options for managing your cookie preferences as outlined in the "Managing and Disabling Cookies" section of this policy. We continue to monitor developments around DNT and may adjust our practices if a universally accepted standard emerges.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
Spinko may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make changes, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies. Significant changes will be communicated through a prominent notice on our website or via email, where appropriate, to ensure you are aware of any updates before they become effective.

You can reach us through the contact methods provided on our website, including live chat, email, or our dedicated support portal.
