Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Scratchful Casino uses cookies and similar technologies on our website (the “Site”). It covers what cookies are, why we use them, what types may be set, how long they stay on your device, how third parties may use them, and how you can control your preferences.

By using the Site, you can choose to allow certain cookies or decline them (except where cookies are strictly necessary for the Site to work). Where required by law, we’ll ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies.

What Cookies Are (and Why They Matter)

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, phone, tablet) when you visit a website. They help websites recognize your browser, remember your settings, and support features like secure login, language preferences, and smoother navigation.

Similar tools may also be used, such as pixels, SDKs, local storage, or device identifiers. In this policy, we refer to all of these as “cookies” for simplicity.

How We Use Cookies to Power a Better Experience

We use cookies to support several core purposes:

• Functionality - remembering preferences (like language, region, or session choices) so you don’t have to set them again.
• Security - helping detect suspicious activity, preventing fraud, and keeping accounts protected.
• Performance - making pages load efficiently and helping the Site run reliably.
• Analytics - understanding how visitors use the Site so we can improve navigation, content, and user flows.
• Marketing - showing more relevant promotions and measuring how campaigns perform (only where permitted and, where required, with your consent).

Cookie Types We May Use

Cookies can be “first-party” (set by Scratchful Casino) or “third-party” (set by another provider whose tools are used on our Site). They can also be “session” cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (remain until they expire or you delete them).

Below are the main categories that may be used.

Essential Cookies - Required to Run the Site

These cookies are necessary for the Site to function and can’t be switched off in our systems. They typically support:

• Account sign-in and session management
• Security protections and fraud prevention
• Load balancing and basic Site operations
• Remembering cookie consent choices (so we can honor them)

If you block essential cookies in your browser, parts of the Site may not work correctly.

Functional Cookies - Save Your Choices

Functional cookies help the Site remember the options you select to provide a more personalized experience. For example, they may remember:

• Display settings and layout preferences
• Region or language selections
• Certain in-session choices that make navigation smoother

If you decline functional cookies, you can still use the Site, but some preferences may reset each time you visit.

Performance and Analytics Cookies - Improve How Everything Runs

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Site, which pages are visited most, and whether users encounter errors. We use these insights to improve stability, usability, and content.

Analytics data is typically aggregated and used to measure performance, troubleshoot issues, and make updates that improve the overall experience.

If you opt out of analytics cookies, you’ll still be able to use the Site, but we’ll have less information to help us optimize performance for users over time.

Marketing Cookies - Relevant Promotions and Measurement

Marketing cookies may be used to:

• Measure the effectiveness of ads and promotions
• Limit how often you see the same promotion
• Personalize messaging based on activity, where allowed

These cookies may be set by us or by third-party advertising/measurement partners. If you decline marketing cookies, you may still see promotions, but they may be less relevant, and we may have limited ability to measure campaign performance.

Third-Party Services That May Set Cookies

Some Site features may rely on third-party providers (for example, analytics, security, payment processing, customer support, or ad measurement). These providers may set their own cookies or similar technologies according to their privacy practices.

We may use third-party services to help:

• Analyze traffic and Site usage
• Protect against fraud and abuse
• Support customer service tools (such as chat)
• Measure marketing performance

Third parties control their own cookies, and their processing may be governed by their own privacy policies. Where required, we provide choices through our consent tools before non-essential third-party cookies are used.

Your Choices: Consent and Cookie Controls

Where required by law, we ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies (such as analytics or marketing). You can update your choices at any time through the cookie settings option presented on the Site (when available).

If you withdraw consent, we will stop using the relevant non-essential cookies going forward. Already-set cookies may remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.

Manage, Disable, or Delete Cookies in Your Browser

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you:

• See which cookies are stored
• Delete all or selected cookies
• Block cookies from specific sites
• Block third-party cookies
• Block all cookies entirely

Keep in mind that blocking or deleting cookies can affect how the Site functions. For example, you may be logged out more often, certain preferences may not save, and some features may not load properly.

To change cookie settings, look for options like “Privacy,” “Security,” or “Site settings” in your browser. If you use multiple devices or browsers, you’ll need to adjust settings on each one.

How Cookie Choices Can Impact Site Features

If you restrict cookies, you may notice changes such as:

• Interrupted sessions or repeated login prompts
• Preference settings not being saved
• Reduced ability to detect and prevent suspicious activity
• Less accurate personalization and measurement

Essential cookies remain necessary for core operations, so disabling all cookies may prevent the Site from working as intended.

Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals. Because there isn’t a consistent industry standard for how to interpret DNT, the Site may not respond to DNT signals in a uniform way. We instead provide cookie controls and consent choices where required.

Policy Updates - Staying Current

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or how the Site operates. When we make updates, we’ll revise the effective date and post the updated version on this page.

If changes are significant, we may provide additional notice through the Site.
