Our Cookie Policy, in Plain English
We use cookies to keep Ohmyspins Casino running smoothly, remember your preferences and understand how our site performs. This page explains exactly what we set, why we set it and how you stay in control.
What Cookies Actually Are
A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your device when you visit. When you come back, your browser sends that file to us so we know, for example, that you already logged in or that you prefer the site in English.
Each cookie stores a name, a value and an expiry date. Some disappear the moment you close your browser; others stay for weeks or months. Cookies cannot read files off your computer, install software or access anything else on your device.
We also use a small number of similar technologies such as local storage, and everything in this policy applies to them in the same way.
The Four Cookie Types We Set
Strictly necessary
These keep the site working. They maintain your login session, confirm your identity between pages and protect our forms against fraud. Without them you could not log in, deposit or play a single round. We do not ask for consent before setting them, because the site simply cannot function without them.
Functional
These remember choices you make: your language, your preferred currency such as AUD, game favourites and whether you dismissed a banner. They are convenient rather than essential, so you can switch them off and the site still works, just with your settings reset each visit.
Analytics
These show us, in aggregated form, which pages players open, where they drop off and how long a session lasts. We use the numbers to fix slow pages and improve navigation. The data cannot identify you personally and we never sell it.
Marketing
These remember that you visited us so our promotional messages stay relevant, for example a reminder that your 200 free spins from the welcome package are waiting. If you opt out, you will still see ads, just less tailored ones.
| Cookie type | Example names | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | ohmyspins_sid, ohmyspins_auth | Login session and account security | Session to 30 days |
| Functional | lang_pref, currency_sel | Language, currency and display preferences | 90 days |
| Analytics | _ga, _gid | Aggregated traffic and behaviour statistics | 24 hours to 365 days |
| Marketing | _fbp, ads_id | Retargeting and campaign measurement | 30 to 90 days |
Who Else Sets Cookies
Some cookies on our pages are placed by trusted partners, not by us. We allow three categories: analytics providers who measure site traffic for us, advertising networks who deliver our promotional campaigns, and payment providers who need their own session cookies to process deposits and withdrawals securely through methods like Visa, Skrill or MiFinity.
We contractually require every partner to process data only for the purpose we agreed. Their cookies follow their own privacy policies, and the links in our consent banner point you to each partner's opt-out page.
We never allow third parties to set cookies on our site for purposes we have not approved, and we review the list of partners at least once a year.
How You Control Cookies
On our site
The first time you land on ohmyspins-aud.com, our cookie banner lets you accept everything, reject everything except strictly necessary cookies, or open a settings panel where you toggle each category individually. You can reopen that panel any time through the "Cookie Settings" link in the site footer, and your choices take effect immediately.
In your browser
You can also block or delete cookies directly in your browser:
Chrome: Settings, Privacy and security, Third-party cookies, then block or clear as you prefer.
Safari: Settings, Privacy, and use Manage Website Data to remove our cookies.
Firefox: Settings, Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data.
Edge: Settings, Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies.
What happens if you block
Blocking strictly necessary cookies breaks logging in, deposits and gameplay, so we do not recommend it. Blocking functional cookies resets your language and currency each visit. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies has no effect on play; you simply see fewer personalised offers and we get less usage data.
How Long We Keep Them
We set the shortest workable lifetime for every cookie. Session cookies are deleted the moment you close your browser. Preference cookies last around 90 days so you do not set your language twice a week. Analytics cookies run up to 365 days for long-term trend comparison, and marketing cookies typically expire after 30 to 90 days.
When a cookie expires, it is deleted automatically by your browser. Nothing is kept beyond its stated lifetime, and we never extend a lifetime to hold on to data longer.
| Category | Opt-out available | Typical lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | No, required for the site to work | Session to 30 days |
| Functional | Yes, via banner or browser | 90 days |
| Analytics | Yes, via banner or browser | 24 hours to 365 days |
| Marketing | Yes, via banner or browser | 30 to 90 days |
When We Update This Policy
If we add a new cookie category, change a partner or adjust a retention period, we update this page and bump the version date at the top. For significant changes, such as a new marketing partner, we also show a fresh consent banner so you can review your choices before the change applies.
We keep a copy of each previous version, so if you ever want to know what the policy said in the past, contact our support team at [email protected] or through 24/7 live chat and we will send it to you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to accept cookies to play at Ohmyspins Casino?
Only the strictly necessary ones. You can reject functional, analytics and marketing cookies in the banner and still log in, deposit and play normally.
Will rejecting cookies affect my welcome bonus?
No. Your 100% match up to 750 AUD plus 200 free spins depends on your deposit, not on cookies. You may just see fewer reminders about it.
How do I delete cookies already on my device?
Use your browser's privacy settings to clear cookies for our site. Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge all have a clear-site-data option that removes them in seconds.
Do you use cookies to track me across other websites?
Only our approved marketing partners may set retargeting cookies, and you can switch that category off in the banner at any time.
Are cookies a security risk?
No. Cookies are plain text files that cannot execute code or read other files on your device. Our security cookies actually reduce fraud risk by verifying your session.
