9au Casino Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how 9au Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website and related services. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and the choices available to you to manage your preferences.
Our services are intended for users aged 18+ and may involve real-money gaming with a minimum deposit of $A20. Cookies help us deliver core site functions, keep the platform secure, remember your settings, and improve your experience in line with responsible and privacy-conscious practices.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and store limited information about your interactions, such as your preferences, login status, or how you navigate through pages.
Cookies are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to provide reporting information, and to support features such as account access, language preferences, and security controls. Some cookies are set only for the duration of your session, while others remain stored for longer so that they can be used on a later visit.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies (such as pixel tags or SDKs) that perform comparable functions. For simplicity, this policy refers to all such technologies as “cookies” unless stated otherwise.
Types of Cookies
Cookies can be grouped in different ways depending on what they do and who sets them. At 9au Casino, these categories help explain how cookies may operate across our services.
Session and Persistent Cookies
- Session cookies: temporary cookies that are typically deleted when you close your browser. They are commonly used to keep you signed in as you move between pages during a single visit.
- Persistent cookies: cookies that remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They help remember preferences and enable features on return visits.
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
- First-party cookies: set by the 9au Casino website domain you are visiting, generally to support core site functionality and your chosen settings.
- Third-party cookies: set by other domains whose services may be embedded in or integrated with our website, for example analytics or advertising partners.
Purpose-Based Categories
For clarity, the remainder of this policy describes cookies by purpose: essential, performance, functional, and marketing. A single cookie may support more than one purpose depending on how it is configured and used.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are required for the website to function properly. Without them, key features may not operate, and certain services you request cannot be provided. These cookies are generally used for operational and security purposes rather than advertising.
Examples of what essential cookies may do on 9au Casino include:
- Enabling account login and maintaining your authenticated session as you navigate between pages.
- Supporting site security features, including detecting suspicious activity, reducing fraud risk, and helping protect account integrity.
- Distributing traffic across servers to keep the site stable and responsive.
- Recording your cookie consent choices where applicable so that your preferences are respected on future visits.
Because these cookies are necessary to deliver the website and protect users, disabling them can affect the availability and reliability of core features, including access to account areas and secure transactions.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us understand how the website is used and how well it performs. They typically collect information such as the pages visited, time spent on the site, error messages encountered, and how users arrive at or move through the website.
At 9au Casino, performance cookies may be used to:
- Measure traffic and usage patterns so we can improve navigation, page load speeds, and overall user experience.
- Identify technical issues (such as broken links or slow-loading pages) and prioritise fixes.
- Compile aggregated statistics that help us evaluate content and feature performance.
Performance data is generally analysed in aggregate form. Even where identifiers are used, the intent is to support measurement and service improvement rather than to directly identify you.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable optional features and personalisation. They allow the website to remember your choices so that the experience is more convenient and tailored to your preferences.
Functional cookies on 9au Casino may support:
- Remembering preferences such as language, region, or display settings.
- Keeping certain interface customisations, such as how information is displayed in menus or panels.
- Supporting customer-facing features that you choose to use, such as retaining form inputs to reduce re-entry during a session.
If you disable functional cookies, some personalised features may not work as intended, and you may need to reselect preferences more frequently.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to deliver content and advertising that may be more relevant to your interests. They can also be used to limit how often you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.
Within a modern online casino environment, marketing cookies may be associated with:
- Attribution, which helps identify whether a marketing message or affiliate referral led to a visit or registration.
- Measuring campaign performance, such as which promotions users engage with and how they interact with offers.
- Retargeting, where advertisements for 9au Casino may appear on other websites or platforms based on prior visits.
Marketing cookies are often set by third parties and may involve tracking across different websites or apps. Where required, these cookies are used only after you make the relevant choices in your cookie settings. You can also limit interest-based advertising through your browser settings and, where available, device-level advertising controls.
Managing Cookies
You can control cookies in several ways. The best option depends on the device and browser you use. Please note that restricting cookies may affect how the 9au Casino website functions, and some features may become unavailable or less reliable.
Browser Controls
Most browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block cookies for websites you visit. You can typically adjust your settings to:
- Block all cookies or only third-party cookies.
- Delete cookies when you close the browser.
- Receive a prompt before a cookie is stored.
- Remove cookies already stored on your device.

Device-Level and Platform Controls
Some devices provide additional controls, such as limiting ad tracking or resetting advertising identifiers. If you use such controls, they may reduce the effectiveness of marketing cookies and certain measurement tools.
Consent and Preference Tools
Where a cookie banner or preference tool is available on 9au Casino, you can use it to accept, reject, or customise non-essential cookies. Your selection may be stored using an essential cookie so that the website can remember your choices.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies used on the 9au Casino website are provided by third parties that deliver services to us. These third parties may set their own cookies or similar technologies when you interact with their tools or content.
Third-party cookies may be associated with:
- Analytics services that help us understand traffic and usage trends.
- Advertising networks and affiliate partners that support promotional activity and attribution.
- Security, fraud prevention, and integrity tools that help protect accounts and transactions.
- Payment and identity-related service providers where their components are used to support secure processing.
Third parties may process information in accordance with their own policies and may combine data collected from your browser with data from other sources. If you would like to learn more, you should review the privacy and cookie notices of the relevant providers. You can also use the cookie management methods described above to limit third-party cookies.
Policy Updates
9au Casino may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, website functionality, or our use of cookies. When we make changes, we will post the updated policy on this page. The date of the latest revision may be indicated within the website interface or related notices where appropriate.
