Richards Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Richards Casino uses cookies and similar technologies on our website to help the site function, to understand how it is used, and to support features that make your experience smoother. It also outlines the choices available to you and where to find more information about managing cookies.
Cookies are widely used across the internet. Some are necessary for core site operations, while others support analytics, personalisation, and marketing. Richards Casino aims to use these technologies in a proportionate way and to provide clear controls where practical.
What Cookies Are
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your device (such as your computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit. Cookies allow the website to remember information about your visit, which can help with basic functionality (like staying logged in), preferences (like language or display settings), and measurement (like understanding which pages are visited most often).
Cookies may be “session” cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (stored for a longer period so they remain available across visits). Similar technologies can include local storage, software development kits (SDKs) in mobile contexts, and tracking pixels. For simplicity, this policy refers to these technologies collectively as “cookies” unless otherwise stated.
Types of Cookies
Richards Casino uses different categories of cookies depending on their purpose. Not all categories are used on every page or at all times, and the specific cookies may change as we update site features.
First-party and third-party
First-party cookies are set by Richards Casino. Third-party cookies are set by other providers (for example, analytics or advertising technology providers) when their tools are used on the website.
Session and persistent
Session cookies are temporary and typically support actions taken during a single visit. Persistent cookies are stored for longer and can help remember settings or recognise a returning browser, subject to your cookie choices and browser settings.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are required for the website to operate reliably and securely. These cookies generally do not relate to advertising and are not used to build marketing profiles. Without essential cookies, some services you request may not work properly.
- Security and fraud-prevention functions, such as protecting sessions and helping detect unusual activity.
- Load balancing and performance routing to ensure pages are delivered efficiently.
- Remembering key actions during a session, such as moving between pages without losing progress.
- Consent and preference storage, where applicable, to record your cookie selections.
Because essential cookies support core site features, disabling them may prevent Richards Casino from providing access to certain parts of the website or may cause the website to behave unpredictably.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help Richards Casino understand how the website is used and how it performs. They provide aggregated insights such as which pages are visited, how long pages take to load, and whether visitors encounter errors. These insights help us improve navigation, fix issues, and make the site more user-friendly.
- Measuring page views and interaction patterns to identify commonly used features.
- Monitoring site stability and diagnosing technical problems.
- Testing improvements (for example, how different layouts perform) to enhance usability.
Where practical, Richards Casino aims to use performance measurement in a way that reduces unnecessary identification of individual users, and we apply access controls and retention limits to the data collected for analytics purposes.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable optional features and personalisation. They help the site remember choices you make so that your experience is more convenient and consistent across visits.
- Remembering interface preferences, such as display settings.
- Supporting certain in-site tools and user experience features that are not strictly essential.
- Reducing repeated prompts by remembering selections you have made (for example, acknowledging information notices).
If you disable functional cookies, the Richards Casino website may still work, but some personalised elements may reset each time you visit.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to help deliver advertising that is more relevant to you and to measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. They can be set by Richards Casino and/or by third parties that provide advertising services.
- Limiting how often you see the same advertisement.
- Measuring whether an advertisement led to a visit or an action on the website.
- Helping show content that is more likely to be relevant based on inferred interests.
Marketing cookies may collect information about your browsing behaviour over time and across websites. If you choose to block or disable these cookies, you may still see advertising, but it may be less relevant, and some measurement features may be reduced.
Managing Cookies
You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through on-site cookie preference tools. Your choices may apply only to the specific browser or device you are using, so you may need to set preferences separately on different devices or browsers.
Browser controls
Most browsers allow you to view, delete, or block cookies, and to control whether cookies are stored at all. You can generally find these options in the “Settings,” “Privacy,” or “Security” sections of your browser. Helpful browser resources include:
- Google Chrome cookie settings
- Mozilla Firefox tracking and cookie controls
- Apple Safari privacy and cookie settings
- Microsoft Edge cookie controls
Deleting cookies
You can delete cookies stored on your device at any time. If you do, the Richards Casino website may treat you as a new visitor on your next visit, which can affect saved preferences and may require you to re-enter certain selections.
Blocking cookies and impact on service
Blocking all cookies can limit website functionality. In particular, essential cookies are needed for security and reliable site operation. If you choose to block cookies, some pages may not load correctly, some features may not work, and certain preferences may not be remembered.
Industry opt-outs (where applicable)
Depending on your location and device, you may also be able to manage certain types of advertising preferences through third-party tools. For example:
If you need help understanding cookie choices on the Richards Casino website, you can contact our support team at [email protected].
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on the Richards Casino website may be set by third parties when we use their services for analytics, security, advertising, or embedded content. These third parties may process information in accordance with their own privacy and cookies notices.
Third-party cookies can include (by way of example):
- Analytics tools that help us understand traffic and site usage trends.
- Advertising and attribution tools used to measure campaign performance and limit ad frequency.
- Security tools used to help protect the website and users from malicious activity.
Richards Casino seeks to work with providers that offer appropriate controls and safeguards; however, we do not control third-party cookie technologies directly. Where you have questions about a third party’s cookies, you should review that provider’s policies and settings.
Policy Updates
Richards Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use, the features we offer, or operational needs. Updates will be posted on this page, and the revised policy will apply from the time it is made available. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how cookies are used and what choices you have.
