This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies SocialGamesAU uses and how they affect your experience on the platform.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work effectively and to provide information to website owners. Most browsers accept cookies by default, but you can modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer.
How SocialGamesAU Uses Cookies and Local Storage
SocialGamesAU uses browser local storage (which functions similarly to cookies) rather than traditional cookies for most functionality. The data stored includes:
- social_coins — Your current virtual coin balance. Used to enable gameplay.
- age_verified — Confirms you've passed the 18+ age gate. Prevents repeated prompts.
- cookie_consent — Records whether you accepted or declined our cookie notice.
- bj_stats — Your Blackjack game statistics (wins, losses, streak). Optional gameplay data.
Essential Functionality
The local storage items listed above are essential for the platform to function correctly. Without them, games cannot track your balance, and you will be asked to verify your age on every single visit. These are not optional for platform functionality.
No Tracking or Advertising Cookies
SocialGamesAU does not use any third-party tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or social media tracking pixels. We do not track your activity across other websites. We do not sell or share any data with advertisers.
Google Fonts
Our platform loads fonts from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com). Google may log anonymised data about this request (such as your IP address and browser type). We do not control this processing. Please refer to Google's Privacy Policy for more information.
Managing Cookies and Local Storage
You can clear all local storage data at any time through your browser's developer tools or privacy settings. Note that doing so will reset your coin balance, age verification status, and game statistics. You can also decline non-essential cookies using the cookie banner displayed when you first visit the site.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
