How We Use Cookies

This Cookie Policy explains what we place on your device when you visit megadice-casino.co.uk, why we do it, and the controls you have. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy and forms part of our Terms of Service. Last updated 2026.

What Cookies Actually Are

A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your phone, tablet or computer. Each one holds a name, a value and an expiry date. When you come back, your browser sends the file to us so we can recognise your device and remember what you did last time.

Without cookies, a casino site like ours cannot work. Logging in, keeping your session open while you move between games, and remembering that you already dismissed the bonus banner all depend on them. Similar technologies called local storage and pixels do the same job, and this policy covers them too.

The Four Cookie Categories

Strictly necessary

These keep the site running and cannot be switched off in our settings. Session cookies identify you after login so you stay signed in while you play. Authentication cookies validate your account and keep your balance visible only to you. Security cookies protect against fraud and detect multiple accounts opened from one device.

Functional

Functional cookies remember choices you make. If you set the site to English or pick GBP as your display currency, we store that so you do not repeat it on every visit. We also remember whether you have closed the cookie banner or a promotional pop-up, and we keep your game filters and last-played titles so your lobby loads the way you left it.

Analytics

Analytics cookies show us, in aggregate, how visitors move through the site. We learn which lobby sections load slowly, which deposit flow steps get abandoned, and how many players reach the live casino on mobile. The data is aggregated and does not identify you personally, but it drives real decisions, such as which games we promote on the front page.

Marketing

Marketing cookies let us and our partners show you relevant ads after you leave the site, including reminders about our 100% welcome bonus up to 450 GBP with 50 free spins. If you play slot races often, you may see promotions for daily races rather than sports offers. These cookies are optional, and you can refuse them at any time.

Cookies Others Place Here

Some cookies on our pages are set by third parties, not by us. We allow three categories of partners, and each operates under its own privacy rules.

Analytics providers measure site traffic and game performance so we can improve load times and lobby layout. Advertising networks serve and measure the campaigns that bring players to Megadice Casino, including the banners you see elsewhere after a visit. Payment providers set technical cookies during deposits and withdrawals to verify transactions and prevent fraud; these are strictly necessary and never used for advertising.

We do not sell your cookie data, and we contractually require our partners to use it only for the purpose they collected it for. Third-party cookies are blocked automatically if you reject marketing and analytics categories in our banner, except the strictly necessary payment ones.

Control Your Cookie Settings

On our site

The cookie banner appears the first time you visit. You can accept all categories, or press "Manage preferences" to switch analytics and marketing on or off separately. Strictly necessary cookies stay active either way. To change your choice later, open the "Cookie settings" link in the site footer at any time.

In your browser

Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies. Here is where to look in the four most common ones.

  • Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies, where you can block all or per site.
  • Safari: Settings, then Privacy, and use "Manage Website Data" to remove stored cookies.
  • Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data, and choose your blocking level.
  • Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies.

What happens if you block

Blocking strictly necessary cookies is the one case that causes real problems: you will not be able to log in, place a bet, or complete a deposit. Blocking functional cookies means reselecting language and currency every visit. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies costs you nothing on site; you will simply see fewer, less relevant adverts elsewhere. Clearing cookies after a session also logs you out, which we recommend on shared devices.

How Long Cookies Last

Every cookie we set carries a fixed expiry. Session cookies die the moment you close your browser. Persistent ones stay for a set period, and the length depends on the job they do. Security-related cookies live the longest, because fraud detection works better with a longer device history. Marketing cookies are the shortest-lived of the persistent group, and most ad networks cap them at 90 days.

The table in the categories section shows the exact ranges. As a rule of thumb, if you visit us and do nothing for a year, every optional cookie on your device from us will have expired on its own.

  • Session cookies: deleted when you close your browser.
  • Security and fraud cookies: up to 90 days.
  • Functional preference cookies: up to 365 days.
  • Analytics cookies: up to 90 days.
  • Marketing cookies: up to 90 days, refreshed on new visits.

When We Update This Policy

We review this policy whenever we add a new cookie, change a provider, or adjust retention periods. If a change is material, we announce it on the site before it takes effect and, where required, show the consent banner again so you can review your choices. The "last updated" date at the top of this page always shows the current version.

Questions about anything here? Our live chat runs 24/7, or email [email protected] and our data protection team will respond directly. We are operated by MegaDice N.V., licensed in Curaçao, and we treat your consent records with the same care as your account data.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to accept cookies to play at Megadice Casino?

You only have to accept the strictly necessary category. Analytics and marketing cookies are optional, and you can refuse them in the banner without losing access to any games or features on site.

Will blocking cookies affect my withdrawals?

No. Withdrawals depend on your account and KYC verification, not cookies. Blocking marketing cookies only changes which adverts you see elsewhere on the internet.

How do I delete cookies already on my device?

Use your browser settings. In Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge there is a "Clear browsing data" or "Manage Website Data" option that removes stored cookies in a few clicks. You will be logged out of our site afterwards.

Do you use cookies to track my gambling behaviour?

Analytics cookies show us aggregate patterns, such as which games are popular on mobile. We also use account data for responsible gambling tools like deposit limits, but that is separate from cookies and covered in our Privacy Policy.
