Goodman Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Goodman Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website from Australia or elsewhere. It describes what cookies are, why we use them, and the choices available to you.
Cookies help us deliver core site functions, improve performance, and tailor your experience. This policy should be read together with any notices shown to you on the website, such as cookie banners or preference tools, which may provide additional choices and context.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. Cookies allow the website to recognise your device on future visits, remember certain information, and support features such as secure logins and navigation between pages.
Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (often called first-party cookies) or by other parties that provide services on the website (often called third-party cookies). Cookies may be session-based (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent (stored for a set period or until you delete them).
In addition to cookies, Goodman Casino may use similar technologies that function like cookies in practice, such as local storage, software development kits within certain environments, and tracking pixels. For simplicity, this policy refers to these technologies as cookies where appropriate.
Types of Cookies
Goodman Casino uses different categories of cookies to operate the website, measure performance, remember your preferences, and, where enabled, provide marketing and advertising features. The specific cookies used can change over time as we update the website, add features, or change service providers.
The categories below describe how cookies are commonly used on our website:
- Essential cookies that support security, account access, and site stability.
- Performance cookies that help us understand how the website is used and how it performs.
- Functional cookies that remember preferences and enhance usability.
- Marketing cookies that may be used to deliver and measure advertising, where applicable.
Some cookies may fit into more than one category depending on the context in which they are used. Where this happens, we classify them based on their primary purpose.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly. Without them, certain services you request cannot be provided. These cookies are typically used to enable key functionality and protect the website and our players.
Examples of how Goodman Casino uses essential cookies include:
- Maintaining secure sessions when you sign in so you can move between pages without repeatedly logging in.
- Supporting account authentication and helping to prevent unauthorised access.
- Enabling critical website features, such as load balancing and basic navigation.
- Detecting and helping to mitigate suspicious activity, such as automated traffic or attempts to misuse forms.
- Remembering cookie preference choices where a preference tool is available.
Because essential cookies are required for core operations, disabling them may cause parts of the website to stop working or to become unavailable.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Goodman Casino website. They allow us to measure traffic patterns, identify popular pages, and detect issues such as slow loading times or errors. These insights help us improve reliability and user experience.
Performance cookies generally collect information in a way that does not directly identify you by name. However, they may collect technical identifiers such as:
- Browser type and version, device type, and operating system.
- General location derived from your network address (often at city or region level).
- Pages visited, time spent, clicks, and scrolling behaviour.
- Referral source information, such as the page you visited before arriving at the website.
We may use aggregated reporting to understand overall trends. Where a performance tool offers settings to limit data collection, we may apply those settings where appropriate for our implementation.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies help the website remember choices you make and provide enhanced features. These cookies are used to make your experience more convenient and consistent across visits, while keeping the website responsive to your preferences.
Goodman Casino may use functional cookies to:
- Remember preferences such as language, display settings, or region selections where these options exist.
- Maintain the state of certain on-site features, such as keeping you signed in if you choose that option on your device.
- Support customer-focused features, such as storing non-sensitive form inputs to improve usability.
- Help personalise parts of the interface based on general usage patterns, such as recently viewed pages.
Functional cookies are not strictly required for the website to operate, but disabling them may reduce the quality of certain features and require you to re-enter preferences more frequently.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to deliver and measure advertising and marketing communications. Where enabled, they can help show content that may be more relevant to your interests, limit the number of times you see an advertisement, and measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.
Marketing cookies can be set by Goodman Casino and/or by third parties that provide advertising, measurement, or social media services. They may track activity across different websites or apps over time. Depending on your settings and the tools used, marketing cookies may collect information such as:
- Interactions with advertisements and campaign links.
- Approximate location and device identifiers used for ad delivery and measurement.
- Audience segmentation signals, such as whether you visited certain pages or completed certain actions.
Where the website offers cookie choices, you can typically refuse or withdraw marketing cookie permissions through the cookie settings tool. If a cookie settings tool is not available in your location or environment, you can manage cookies through your browser settings as described below.
Managing Cookies
You can manage cookies in several ways. The best approach depends on the device and browser you use. Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect how the Goodman Casino website functions, including access to certain areas, account features, and preference settings.
Common options include:
- Browser controls: Most browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block cookies. You can usually apply controls per website or for all websites.
- Private browsing: Using private or incognito modes may limit certain cookies, especially persistent cookies, but it may not prevent all forms of storage.
- Device settings: Some devices provide additional controls, such as limiting ad tracking or resetting advertising identifiers.
- Cookie preference tools: Where available, you can adjust cookie categories through the on-site cookie banner or settings panel.
If you choose to delete cookies, you may need to repeat this process periodically. New cookies can be set when you revisit the website, and preferences stored in cookies may be removed by deletion.
For help adjusting browser settings, you may wish to consult your browser provider support pages. Examples include:
- Google Chrome cookie settings
- Mozilla Firefox cookie settings
- Apple Safari cookie settings
- Microsoft browser cookie settings
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on the Goodman Casino website may be set by third parties that provide services such as analytics, advertising delivery, payment-related tooling, fraud prevention support, or embedded content. Third-party providers may use cookies in accordance with their own policies and may combine information from our website with information from other sources.
Key points to understand about third-party cookies:
- Third parties may set and access their own cookies when you use features they provide on the website.
- We do not control third-party cookie technologies directly, and their cookies are subject to their own privacy and cookie notices.
- Blocking third-party cookies in your browser may reduce tracking, but it may also impact features that rely on third-party services.
Where we integrate third-party tools, we aim to select reputable providers and configure tools in a manner consistent with the purpose for which they are used. However, you should review third-party policies to understand how they process information.
Policy Updates
Goodman Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices, technologies, or website features. When we make changes, we will post the updated version on this page. The effective date may also be updated to help you understand when the latest changes took effect.
If you have questions about this Cookies Policy or how cookies are used on the website, you can contact us at [email protected].
