Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. At The Aussie Event, we use cookies and similar technologies (like local storage) primarily to ensure our free social casino games function correctly and your virtual Gala Token balance is remembered between visits.

2. Essential Gameplay Cookies

These are strictly necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences, acknowledging the 18+ age gate, or interacting with the game lobby. Without these, the core simulated experience would break.

3. Analytics and Performance

We use performance cookies to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us know which games are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work (such as retaining your virtual currency). You can manage your preferences via your browser settings at any time.

5. Local Storage Usage for Guest Accounts

Because we operate without mandatory user accounts to reduce friction, we rely heavily on HTML5 Local Storage. This is where your Gala Token balance and Festival Stamp Card progress are saved. Clearing your browser data will result in a reset of your virtual balance to the default starting amount.

6. Policy Updates

We may update this policy periodically to reflect changes in our technical architecture. Any changes will be posted here. If you have questions about our cookie usage, please contact our support team.
