What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. The next time you visit the site, the browser sends the cookie back so the site can recognise you. Cookies do useful things like keeping you logged in across pages, remembering your preferred language and measuring traffic patterns so the site can be improved over time.
Cookies are also used for less popular purposes, like cross-site advertising tracking. Megaways VIP Casino uses cookies that fall into four clear categories and gives you control over the optional ones. Strictly necessary cookies are the only category that cannot be switched off because the site cannot function without them.
Which categories of cookies do we use?
Strictly necessary cookies handle authentication, session management, security tokens, load balancing and basic preferences like the chosen language. They are loaded the moment you arrive on the site and they cannot be disabled because they are essential to the service.
Performance cookies measure how visitors interact with the site so we can fix slow pages and broken flows. Functional cookies remember your interface choices, like which game category you opened last. Targeting cookies are used to personalise the promotions and the marketing emails you receive. The last three categories are all optional and you can switch them off individually at any time.
How do you control which cookies are stored?
The first time you visit the site, a banner asks for your cookie preferences. The choice is saved and applied to every subsequent visit. To change your mind later, open the cookie settings link in the footer; the same panel is available there at any time.
Browsers also offer their own cookie controls. In Chrome, open Settings, then Privacy and security, then Cookies and other site data. In Firefox, open Settings, then Privacy and Security. In Safari, open Preferences, then Privacy. In Edge, open Settings, then Cookies and site permissions. From any of these panels you can block all cookies, block third party cookies or delete the cookies already stored.
What happens if you block all cookies?
Blocking strictly necessary cookies will stop the site working entirely. You will be unable to log in, the session will not persist between pages and the cashier will not work. Blocking only the optional categories is fully supported and will not affect your ability to register, deposit, play or withdraw.
If you block performance and functional cookies, the site will still work but will not remember your preferences between visits and will not be able to spot performance issues affecting you. If you block targeting cookies, you will still receive standard promotional emails but they will not be personalised based on the games you actually play.
Do we use third party cookies?
Some functions are delivered by third party providers and may set their own cookies. Live chat support uses cookies set by the chat provider so a conversation can be picked up if you change page or come back later. Analytics is provided by a vendor that sets a cookie to count unique visitors. Payment processors set cookies on their own pages when you complete a deposit or withdrawal.
Each third party operates under its own privacy policy and its cookies are limited to the function it provides. We do not allow third party advertising networks to set tracking cookies on the site, and we do not sell data to any party for advertising purposes.
How long do cookies last?
Session cookies are deleted when you close the browser. Persistent cookies stay for a defined period, from 30 days for some preferences up to 12 months for the cookie consent record itself. Each cookie has its own lifespan listed in the cookie settings panel along with the purpose it serves.
You can delete cookies manually at any time from the browser settings. If you delete the consent cookie, the banner reappears on your next visit and you can set new preferences from scratch.
How do we keep this policy up to date?
The policy is reviewed every six months and is updated whenever a new cookie is added or a category changes. Material changes are notified in advance through a banner at the top of the site. The version published here is always the current version.
For wider questions about your personal data, see the Privacy Policy. For account questions, the support team is available 24/7 through live chat and is happy to walk you through any cookie or privacy setting.
