Cookies and Tracking

This page covers the cookies and tracking tools used on the Nova Scotia Casino site, explaining what each type does and how you can disable the optional ones.

1. What cookies are

Small files your browser stores for our site.

Cookies are small data files that let our site recognize your browser on a return visit. Some are deleted when you leave. Others remain for a fixed time. Local storage, web pixels and comparable tools are covered on this page too.

2. Managing or switching them off

You decide what runs, apart from the essentials.

When you first land on the site, a banner invites you to accept or reject optional cookies. You can switch your choice any time via the footer's Cookie Settings link. Browsers also let you clear or block cookies. Turning off strictly necessary cookies breaks login, games and the cashier.

3. Functional cookies

They save your settings.

Functional cookies remember settings such as recent games, display options and language, saving you from choosing them again each visit. They are optional.

4. Strictly necessary cookies

Without them the casino does not run.

These cookies maintain your login, secure your session, enable geolocation checks and protect the cashier. They cannot be switched off, as our site could not run safely without them.

5. Third party cookies

Set by partners we work with.

When content from game studios, payment processors or verification services appears on our pages, those partners may set cookies. They apply their own privacy rules to them. We partner only with companies that meet our data standards.

6. Marketing cookies

Off unless you switch them on.

With your permission, marketing cookies show which campaigns bring players to our site and limit how often an ad is repeated. They never target anyone under 19, anyone on a break or anyone who has self-excluded. Declining them leaves the whole site open to you.

7. Analytics cookies

They show us what works.

Analytics cookies log visits, page loads and errors so we can make slow pages faster and improve the lobby. We only look at the results in aggregate and never use them to identify an individual player. These cookies are only active with your consent.

8. Changes

Updates appear here first.

When a cookie type is added or removed, this page is revised and dated, and we ask for your choice again if needed. Send questions about cookies to [email protected]. Our Your Privacy page explains how we handle personal data.
