Cookie Policy for Users in Ireland

Welcome to gibraltarcasinolicense.net. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies on our website for visitors located in Ireland. It should be read together with our Privacy Notice and forms part of our overall Terms of Use. In this Policy, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to the operators of gibraltarcasinolicense.net, and “you” refers to any user accessing or using our website from Ireland.

By selecting your preferences in our cookie banner and continuing to use our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy and, where applicable, you consent to our use of non-essential cookies. You can withdraw or modify your consent at any time through the controls described below. We may update this Policy from time to time; please review it regularly for the latest information.

What Cookies Are and How We Use Them

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, local storage, SDKs, device identifiers, and scripts that help us recognize your device, remember your preferences, measure performance, and improve our services. Cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by independent providers whose services we integrate (third-party cookies). They can be session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (which remain for a defined period), and they can be strictly necessary or non-essential (such as preference, analytics, or advertising cookies).

We process strictly necessary cookies to operate our website and provide features you request. The legal basis for strictly necessary cookies is our legitimate interests in delivering a secure, functional service. For non-essential cookies, the legal basis is your consent, which we request via our cookie banner and settings. Our practices are intended to comply with Irish law, including applicable ePrivacy rules, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the Irish Data Protection Act 2018.

Strictly Necessary Cookies: Enable core site functions, page navigation, and access to secure areas. The site cannot function properly without these.
Functional/Preference Cookies: Remember choices such as language, region, and interface settings to enhance your experience.
Analytics/Performance Cookies: Help us understand how visitors interact with the site (e.g., page views, time on page, navigation paths) so we can improve content and usability.
Advertising/Targeting Cookies: Support interest-based advertising, frequency capping, and campaign measurement where applicable and only with your consent.
Security and Fraud Prevention Cookies: Assist in detecting misuse, maintaining integrity, and protecting against malicious activity.

We do not use cookies to create profiles that reveal sensitive categories of data. We do not sell personal data. Aggregated statistics derived from analytics cookies are used to improve our content and services and are not intended to identify you directly.

Your Choices, Consent Management, and Browser Controls

When you first visit our website from Ireland, you will see a cookie banner requesting your consent for non-essential cookies. You can accept all, reject all (except strictly necessary cookies), or customize your choices by category. You may change your consent preferences at any time via our cookie settings tool (available from the site footer or banner) or by adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies. If you withdraw consent, this will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal, but some features may not function as intended.

Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings. You can typically find these controls under privacy or security options in your browser menu. You can also manage local storage and permissions (for example, access to device identifiers) using device settings. Please note that “Do Not Track” signals are not consistently implemented across the industry, and our site may not respond to them. You may also use platform-level settings to limit interest-based advertising where available.

Our services are not directed to children under the age of 16 in Ireland, and we do not knowingly place non-essential cookies on devices of users under 16 without appropriate consent. If you believe a child has provided consent improperly, please contact us at [email protected] so we can take appropriate steps.

Data Collected via Cookies and Retention

Cookies and similar technologies may collect information such as: device identifiers, browser type and settings, operating system, IP address (which may be truncated or hashed), country or region derived from IP, referring/exit pages, timestamps, clickstream data, pages viewed, links clicked, time spent on pages, error logs, site performance metrics, and interactions with our content or forms. Some of this information may be considered personal data under GDPR. Where we combine cookie data with other information that identifies you, we treat the combined data as personal data.

Retention: Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies typically last from a few days up to 24 months, depending on their purpose. For example, preference cookies may last up to 12 months; certain analytics cookies may last up to 13 months; and advertising cookies, where used, may last up to 24 months. Retention periods may restart upon your return to the site.
Roles: We act as the controller for first-party cookies. Independent providers that set third-party cookies act as separate controllers for their own processing and determine their purposes and means.
International Transfers: Some providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where this occurs, we aim to ensure appropriate safeguards, such as adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses, are in place.
Security: We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures (including TLS encryption in transit, access controls, and minimization). However, no method of transmission or storage is entirely secure.

You have rights under GDPR, including the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection (including to processing based on legitimate interests and to direct marketing), and data portability. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Irish Data Protection Commission. To exercise your rights in relation to our first-party cookies, contact [email protected]. For third-party cookies, please contact the relevant provider directly.

Third-Party Cookies and External Services

Our website may integrate services that set cookies on your device, such as analytics, performance monitoring, embedded media, security and anti-abuse tools, content delivery, and advertising measurement. These third parties may use cookies to recognize your device across websites, build aggregated statistics, measure reach and performance, prevent fraud, and, with your consent, personalize content or ads. We do not control these cookies once they are set, and their use is governed by the third parties’ own policies and settings. You can manage your preferences for third-party cookies via our banner/settings and your browser controls, but you may need to adjust preferences on the third party’s own site as well.

Analytics and Measurement: Helps us understand traffic sources, user flows, and usability.
Advertising and Attribution: Supports consent-based audience measurement, frequency capping, and campaign effectiveness.
Social Sharing and Embedded Content: Enables features such as share buttons or embedded media players that place cookies to function properly.
Security and Anti-Abuse: Detects unusual activity and helps protect our services.
Infrastructure and Delivery: Improves load times and reliability through caching and distribution.

To the fullest extent permitted by Irish law, our site is provided “as is” and “as available.” While we use reasonable efforts to maintain accurate information and reliable cookie controls, we do not warrant uninterrupted availability or complete freedom from errors. We are not responsible for the practices of third parties placing cookies through their services, and your use of external services is at your own discretion. Nothing in this Policy limits any non-excludable statutory rights you may have under Irish law.

Updates, Contact, and Governing Law

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes to our use of cookies, applicable law, or technology. If we make material changes, we will take appropriate steps to notify you, such as updating the effective date, presenting a revised banner, or posting a prominent notice. Your continued use of the site after the effective date of an updated Policy signifies your acknowledgment of the changes. If you have questions or wish to exercise your rights regarding cookies, please contact [email protected]. When contacting us, include details about your device, browser, and relevant cookies to help us respond efficiently.

This Policy is governed by the laws of Ireland, and any dispute arising from or related to it shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Irish courts, without prejudice to any mandatory rights you may have under applicable consumer law. If any provision of this Policy is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. This Policy is effective as of the date displayed in our cookie banner or within this page.
