Highway Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how Highway Casino uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and related services. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and the choices you may have when you visit or use our platform from Australia or elsewhere.
Cookies help websites function properly, remember preferences, and provide insights that allow operators to improve performance and user experience. Some cookies are essential for core features, while others are optional and used for analytics or marketing. Where choices are available, you can manage them as described below.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (for example, your computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. When you return to the same site, or visit other sites that use the same cookies, the website may read those files to recognise your browser, remember your settings, and help deliver requested functionality.
Cookies can be “session” cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (kept for a set period, or until you delete them). In addition to cookies, similar technologies may be used, such as local storage, SDKs within mobile environments, and tracking pixels. For simplicity, this policy refers to these collectively as “cookies” unless otherwise noted.
Types of Cookies
Highway Casino uses cookies for several purposes that generally fall into the categories below. The specific cookies active on your device can vary depending on the pages you visit, features you use, and whether you accept optional cookies through any preference tools we may provide.
- Essential cookies that enable core site operations and security.
- Performance cookies that help us understand site usage and improve reliability.
- Functional cookies that remember choices you make, such as language or display preferences.
- Marketing cookies that may be used to deliver more relevant advertising and measure campaign effectiveness.
Some cookies are placed directly by us (“first-party cookies”). Others may be placed by service providers we use (“third-party cookies”), as explained later in this policy.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are required for the website to function and to provide services you request. Without these cookies, key features may not work correctly, such as navigating between pages, accessing secure areas, or maintaining the continuity of a logged-in session.
Highway Casino typically uses essential cookies for purposes such as:
- Keeping you signed in during a session and maintaining session integrity.
- Supporting account authentication and security controls designed to protect users and the platform.
- Enabling critical site functionality such as page routing, load balancing, and fraud or abuse detection signals.
- Remembering privacy or cookie choices where applicable, so you are not repeatedly prompted.
Because these cookies are necessary for core operations, they may not be disabled through preference settings provided on the site. You can still block them in your browser, but the website may not work as intended.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website, which pages are most visited, how long pages take to load, and whether errors occur. This information is used in aggregate to maintain and improve performance, diagnose issues, and make the user experience more consistent.
Examples of how Highway Casino may use performance cookies include:
- Measuring page responsiveness and identifying technical bottlenecks.
- Understanding which content is helpful to users and where navigation can be improved.
- Detecting repeated error events to assist with troubleshooting and stability improvements.
Performance cookies are not intended to directly identify you. However, they may collect device and browser data (such as IP-derived location at a general level, device type, or browser version) that supports analytics functions. Where choice mechanisms are available, you may be able to opt out of non-essential analytics cookies.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember selections you make and help personalise your experience. They are used to provide enhanced features and to keep the site consistent with your preferences. If functional cookies are disabled, some customisation may be lost and certain convenience features may not operate smoothly.
Functional cookies at Highway Casino may be used to:
- Remember display preferences and user interface settings, such as layout options.
- Store choices that reduce repetitive prompts (for example, recognising the region-specific version of the site you access).
- Support safer sign-in experiences by remembering certain device-related settings where appropriate.
Functional cookies do not change the underlying services you receive, but they can make repeated visits more efficient and tailored to your preferences.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to deliver advertising that is more relevant to your interests, to limit how often you see a particular advertisement, and to measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. These cookies can also help attribute visits or registrations to specific campaigns.
Depending on your settings and the services used, marketing cookies may:
- Record interactions with advertisements and track whether a campaign led to a visit or action.
- Support audience segmentation based on browsing behaviour across sites or apps.
- Help prevent repetitive ads by applying frequency controls.
Marketing cookies may be set by Highway Casino and/or by third parties that provide advertising technology services. If you choose to restrict marketing cookies, advertisements may still appear, but they may be less relevant and campaign measurement may be less accurate.
Managing Cookies
You have control over cookies through your browser and, where available, through on-site preference tools. The steps vary by browser and device, but common options include blocking cookies, deleting existing cookies, and restricting third-party cookies. If you block all cookies, some features of Highway Casino may not function properly, including secure login and certain account-related services.
Practical ways to manage cookies include:
- Browser settings: use your browser’s privacy controls to block or delete cookies, and to manage third-party cookie permissions.
- Private browsing modes: these can reduce persistence by limiting storage after the session ends, though they do not block all tracking by default.
- Device controls: mobile operating systems may offer controls related to advertising identifiers and app tracking preferences.
- Clearing stored data: deleting cookies and cached data can reset preferences and may sign you out of your account.
If you need help understanding cookie options on our website, you can contact our support team at [email protected].
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on the website may be placed by third-party providers that support our services. These providers may include analytics vendors, advertising technology providers, security and fraud-prevention tools, and customer experience platforms. Third-party cookies are governed by the third party’s own policies and configurations, and they may change over time.
Highway Casino does not control how third parties use data collected through their cookies. We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie notices of those providers for more information on their practices and the choices they offer.
In many browsers you can restrict third-party cookies specifically, which may reduce cross-site tracking. Please note that restricting third-party cookies can also affect embedded tools and features that rely on those technologies.
Policy Updates
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, our practices, or operational requirements. When updates are made, we will revise the content of this page to keep it accurate and current. Any changes take effect when the updated policy is posted on the website.
We recommend checking this page periodically so you remain informed about how Highway Casino uses cookies and what choices are available to you.
