Cookies Policy for Foxy Bingo Slots (Entain)

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet, etc.) when you visit a website. They allow websites to remember information about your preferences and browsing behavior so that they can provide you with a more personalized experience.

Why Are Cookies Used?

We use cookies for various purposes:

  • To enable us to recognize you as a returning visitor.
  • To tailor the content of our website according to your interests.
  • To improve performance, security and user-friendliness of our website.
  • For analytics (more information below).

Types of Cookies

There are different types of cookies. We'll explain some of them in more detail:

Essential Cookies

These cookies allow you to navigate the site and use its features like logins, account management, etc.

Session Cookies

Session cookies exist only for as long as your browser is open. They're used when we want to remember information about your session or login state but do not have a lasting effect on your user experience once you close your browser.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies are stored in the memory of the device until a specified date (which could be months or years) and are activated each time that particular website is visited. They allow us to remember specific settings for future visits, such as language preferences or login details.

Functional Cookies

We use functional cookies to customize your experience on our website based on your behavior. For instance, if you browse through a certain section of the site often, we might offer recommendations tailored specifically for that area next time.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

To improve performance, security and user-friendliness:

  • We may employ analytics tools from third-party providers like Google to gather data about how our website is used. This includes which pages are most frequently visited, where users come from before entering the site (e.g., a referral link), or how long they stay on certain parts of it.
  • To understand user interactions with different elements within individual sections.

Preference and Language Settings

You can choose your preferred language and some other settings during the registration process. We'll remember these choices for future visits, but only if you permit us to do so by enabling cookies in your browser.

Login/Session Continuity

Our website is designed to provide continuous login experiences. This means once logged into an account:

  • You won't need to re-enter credentials each time.
  • The data entry fields will automatically fill with saved information.

This saves users the trouble of typing lengthy usernames or passwords repeatedly, and it makes navigation across multiple sessions easier while keeping your online experience more convenient.

Device Recognition

To provide a personalized browsing experience:

  • We recognize devices (computers) when you visit our website. This is for various reasons:
    • Improving website performance on known browsers.
    • To avoid creating duplicate accounts unintentionally, which would cause problems during checkout processes or similar tasks.

Security-Related Cookies

For added security and peace of mind:

  • Some cookies may be used to prevent hacking attempts. This is because hackers often employ automated scripts that try multiple combinations within seconds – by tracking these login attempts via specific types of cookies, our systems can more efficiently block malicious activity from happening without negatively affecting legitimate users.

Browser Storage Technologies

Modern web browsers offer various technologies for storing data locally on your device:

  • SessionStorage and LocalStoragesessionStorage: These allow websites to store information during an active session.
  • Cache-APIs: This provides developers a way to save resources that they consider useful between two different runs of the application.

We don't use these technologies extensively, but they could become necessary if we start offering more advanced features or need temporary data storage solutions for future web applications within our platform.

Third-Party Integrations

Some third-party integrations are crucial to achieving full functionality:

  • Google Maps API: Required for geographic information system (GIS) mapping functionality on the website.
  • Social login services (e.g., Facebook, Twitter): Enables easy account creation and logging into our site using existing accounts from other platforms.

For some third-party integrations cookies may be necessary to provide seamless experiences:

  • When linking your social media profiles with ours for enhanced features like single sign-on functionality or syncing certain settings across different devices through cloud integration.

Marketing/Communication Preferences

To tailor information based on individual interests and optimize communication channels effectively, we collect data related to user behavior such as:

  • Browsing history
  • Click-through rates (CTR)
  • Average session duration.
  • Demographics (country location)

This helps us improve content quality tailored towards your needs while keeping intrusive advertisements at a minimum.

Cookie Consent Management

Cookie consent is essential for compliance. We want to be transparent about our use of cookies:

  • At first, when you arrive on the website, there will be an opt-in dialog asking permission before storing non-essential tracking data.
  • If necessary, we may request re-consent if new cookie types are implemented or existing ones change scope.

Please note that this only pertains to non-functional and analytic cookies; functional ones continue to function normally regardless of whether they were initially declined due to their direct relevance toward your user experience.

Browser Cookie Controls

For users who prefer more control over what gets stored locally by websites, the majority of contemporary browsers come equipped with a built-in feature called cookie management:

  • Internet Explorer, Microsoft's web browser: allows for easy deletion and disabling.
  • Google Chrome: lets you see all cookies associated with each website under "Manage Site Data".

Clearing or Disabling Cookies

For users who prefer complete control over their browsing environment, here are steps on how to clear out cookies:

  1. Open your preferred browser (e.g., Google Chrome).
  2. Press the three dots at top right and select 'More Tools.'
  3. In the menu that follows click “Clear Browsing Data…”.

As you can see clearing stored information from browsers will also remove locally cached website content.

Impact of Disabling Cookies on Site Functionality

Disabling all cookies, both necessary for navigation purposes or tracking/analytic functions, could lead to some inconveniences such as:

  • Log-in and session management: Websites cannot remember whether a user has logged in successfully.
  • Saving personal preferences : Language and layout options won't stick.

Keep in mind that disabling non-essential cookies only affects areas where the respective functionality was originally set up using analytics tools or marketing services mentioned above (such as targeted advertising).
