What This Policy Covers
This Cookie Policy explains how Chumba Casino, accessible at https://chumba-casino-uk.com, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. It sets out what cookies we place on your device, why we use them, and the choices available to you regarding their use.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further detail on how we handle your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your computer, tablet or mobile device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites function properly, to improve performance, and to provide information to the website operator. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting (known as first-party cookies) or by other organisations whose services are embedded on that page (known as third-party cookies).
Similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage objects, may also be used for comparable purposes. Where this policy refers to “cookies”, it covers all such technologies unless stated otherwise.
Cookies can be either session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them manually.
Our Legal Basis for Using Cookies
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR), as they apply in the United Kingdom, we are required to obtain your consent before placing any cookies on your device that are not strictly necessary for the delivery of our service. The sole exception is cookies that are essential to the technical operation of the website.
Where we rely on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out prior to that withdrawal.
As an operator holding a licence issued by the UK Gambling Commission, we are also subject to specific obligations concerning responsible gambling and age verification, which may require us to process certain data through technically necessary means, including session-based cookies.
