Cookie Policy

What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files or data records stored by a web browser when you visit a website. They can contain an identifier and limited information that allows a website or service provider to recognise a browser, remember a setting or understand how a page is used.

Cookies do not usually contain the full content of a form submission. However, an identifier stored in a cookie may be connected with information held elsewhere by a website or provider. The privacy impact therefore depends on the type of cookie, the information connected to it and how it is used.

Related technologies include browser local storage, session storage, software development tags, pixels and embedded scripts. This policy uses the term “cookies” broadly to include these technologies where they perform a similar function.

How We Use Cookies

AussieCasinoGetaways uses cookies and local storage to keep the website functional, remember privacy choices, improve navigation and understand broad patterns of website use where permission has been provided.

Cookies may help us determine whether the cookie banner has already been answered, maintain a consistent page experience, investigate technical errors and measure whether visitors can find important hotel and legal information.

We divide cookies into categories so that visitors can make a more specific choice. Essential cookies are active by default. Optional analytics, preference and marketing categories remain subject to the selection made through the banner or settings modal.

We do not use a cookie to guarantee gambling outcomes, determine creditworthiness or bypass a hotel's age and identity requirements.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies and storage entries are necessary for basic website operation. Disabling them through ordinary site controls is not available because core functions may not work correctly without them.

• Recording whether the cookie notice has been answered.
• Saving the selected cookie categories in local storage.
• Supporting website security, load balancing and protection against misuse.
• Maintaining accessibility and interface behaviour required to display pages properly.
• Supporting form operation and preventing repeated accidental submissions.

Some essential records may be session-based and disappear when the browser closes. Others may remain for a defined period so that a choice can be remembered. You can clear them using browser controls, although doing so may reset the site and cause the cookie banner to appear again.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help measure how visitors use the website. Depending on the analytics service and your consent, information may include pages viewed, approximate session duration, broad device category, referring source, navigation path and interactions with common page elements.

We use analytics to identify pages that load slowly, content that is difficult to find, broken journeys and broad interest in destinations or facilities. Reports are generally reviewed in aggregated form.

Analytics cookies are optional. If you reject them, core pages and forms should remain available. The absence of analytics consent may reduce our ability to understand how the website performs, but it does not prevent you from reading hotel information or contacting us.

Analytics information is not intended to be used to profile individual visitors according to gambling behaviour or to encourage a person to spend more money at a casino.

Preference Cookies

Preference cookies remember choices that improve convenience. Examples can include interface settings, language or region preferences, display selections and other non-essential options that a visitor asks the website to remember.

The current site primarily uses local storage to remember cookie category choices. Additional preference features may be introduced as the website develops. When a new optional preference technology is added, it should be controlled consistently with the category selected in Cookie Settings.

If preference cookies are rejected, the website should still function, but a choice may need to be made again during a future visit. Clearing browser storage will also remove saved preferences.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies may be used to understand the effectiveness of promotional content, limit repeated advertising or measure whether a campaign led to a website visit. They may be placed by us or by an approved advertising or social media provider.

Marketing cookies are optional and are not required to browse hotel pages, read legal information or submit a general enquiry. Rejecting marketing cookies should not reduce access to core content.

If marketing services are used, providers may combine information about activity on this site with information collected through their own services, subject to their privacy policies and account settings. We do not control how a visitor's signed-in social media account is independently used by that platform.

We do not use marketing cookies to represent gambling as a reliable source of income or to promise a financial return.

Session and Persistent Cookies

A session cookie normally remains only while a browser session is open and is removed when the browser closes. A persistent cookie remains after the session and expires on a specified date or when it is deleted.

Essential security functions may use short-lived session cookies. Saved privacy choices usually need to persist for longer so the site can remember that the banner was answered. Analytics and marketing providers may apply their own retention periods.

The actual duration can be affected by browser settings, provider configuration, private browsing, software updates and whether you manually clear site data.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

A first-party cookie is associated with the domain you are visiting. A third-party cookie is associated with another provider whose content, service or script is included on the page.

First-party storage may be used to remember your cookie settings. Third-party technologies may be introduced by maps, fonts, icons, analytics, social media or other embedded features. Third-party providers determine some aspects of their own cookie operation and retention.

Browser restrictions on third-party cookies are becoming more common and may affect how embedded services operate. Blocking a third-party cookie does not necessarily block all network requests or local storage used by an embedded service.

Google Maps and Embedded Content

Hotel pages contain embedded Google Maps. Loading or interacting with a map may allow Google to process an IP address, browser and device details, approximate location, map interactions and cookies associated with Google services.

Google Maps is supplied by an independent provider and is governed by Google's own terms and privacy information. If you are signed in to a Google account, interactions may also be associated with that account according to your Google settings.

You can avoid active map use by relying on the written hotel address. Blocking third-party content or cookies may prevent the map from displaying correctly, but it should not affect the main text of the hotel page.

Future embedded media, such as video or social content, may set its own cookies when loaded. We will seek to place non-essential embedded technologies within the appropriate consent category where reasonably practicable.

Cookie Settings and Consent

On the first visit, the cookie banner offers three main actions: Accept All, Reject Optional and Cookie Settings. Choosing Accept All enables all available categories. Choosing Reject Optional leaves essential storage active and disables the optional categories. Cookie Settings allows individual optional categories to be selected.

After you save a choice, it is stored in local storage. The banner should not reappear on every page. You can reopen Cookie Settings from the footer and change the selection at any time.

A changed preference applies to future use of optional technologies. Some information already collected before the change may remain in provider systems for the applicable retention period. Clearing cookies or local storage may also remove the preference record.

Consent should be freely chosen. Declining optional cookies does not prevent access to the main website content.

Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies and site data. Controls are normally available in privacy, security or site settings. You may be able to block all cookies, block third-party cookies, delete data for one website or clear information when the browser closes.

Browser wording and steps vary by software and version. Consult the help information supplied by your browser provider for current instructions.

• Blocking all storage may prevent privacy choices or form-related features from being remembered.
• Deleting site data will normally reset the cookie banner.
• Private browsing can remove data when the private session closes.
• Using multiple devices or browser profiles requires a separate choice on each one.
• Ad-blocking or privacy extensions may change the behaviour of embedded maps and external resources.

Browser controls operate separately from the Cookie Settings modal. For the strongest restriction, you may need to use both.

Do Not Track and Global Privacy Signals

Some browsers and extensions transmit “Do Not Track” or other privacy preference signals. There is no single universal technical standard that determines how every website and provider must respond to every signal.

Where supported by our technology and applicable requirements, we may consider recognised privacy signals when configuring optional services. The most direct way to express a choice on this site remains the Cookie Settings panel together with your browser controls.

Third-party providers may respond to browser signals according to their own policies.

Cookie Retention

Retention varies by purpose and provider. Session cookies may last only until the browser is closed. A local storage record of cookie choices may remain until it is replaced, manually deleted or removed by browser settings.

Optional analytics or marketing providers may use shorter or longer periods depending on their configuration. We periodically review whether stored information remains necessary and seek to avoid indefinite retention without a clear purpose.

Because browser storage can be controlled by the visitor, the practical lifetime of a cookie may be shorter than the stated maximum. Software updates, private browsing and device-cleaning tools can also remove data.

Changes to Cookie Use

Cookie use may change when website features, analytics tools, embedded services or legal requirements are updated. We may revise this policy and adjust the categories displayed in Cookie Settings.

If a material new optional use is introduced, we may ask visitors to review or renew their choice. The effective date at the top of this page indicates when the current version was published.

Visitors are encouraged to review the policy periodically, especially after the site introduces a new booking link, map feature, embedded media or promotional integration.

Your Privacy and External Providers

Rejecting optional cookies on AussieCasinoGetaways does not automatically change settings held by Google, a social network, an advertising provider or another website. Each external provider may offer its own privacy dashboard, advertising controls or account settings.

When you follow a link to another website, that operator may set cookies under its own policy. Review the new site's cookie notice before submitting personal information or making a booking.

Our Privacy Policy contains more information about personal information, third-party services, storage, security and contact options.
