How this site remembers you
Every time you open a page on this portal, a handful of small text files land in your browser. That's what a cookie is — a short note the site leaves behind so it can recognise your device on the next visit. This page explains what wazamba-pokies.org sets, why, and how to switch any of it off. It has nothing to do with Wazamba the casino operator itself — this is our own housekeeping, not theirs.
We use cookies for three broad jobs: keeping the site functional, understanding roughly how many people read which page, and — where a script is embedded — supporting the odd bit of third-party functionality. Nothing here is used to identify you personally, and nothing is sold.
What each cookie category actually does
| Category | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Necessary | Keeps basic site functions working — page navigation, security, remembering your cookie choice itself. |
| Analytics | Counts visits and page views in aggregate, so we know which content is actually being read. Set only with your consent. |
| Marketing & advertising | Used only where a third-party script is embedded on a page; helps measure whether that content performed. Consent-based. |
| Preference | Remembers small display choices, like whether you've already dismissed a banner. |
The analytics question
Analytics cookies are the ones most readers ask about, so it's worth being direct: they tell us how many people visited a page, not who any individual reader is. We use this to decide what's worth expanding and what isn't. If you decline analytics consent, the site works exactly the same — you just won't be counted in that aggregate.
Scripts we do not control
Where a page embeds outside content — a widget, an image host, occasionally a script from an advertising partner — that provider may set its own cookie the moment the embed loads. We don't write those cookies and we can't read what they store; the provider's own policy governs them, not ours. If you'd rather avoid this category altogether, blocking third-party cookies in your browser settings (below) is the reliable way to do it.
Your options for managing cookies
- Chrome — Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data.
- Firefox — Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
- Safari — Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data.
- Edge — Settings → Cookies and site permissions.
You can also use the consent banner shown on your first visit to accept or decline the non-essential categories. Turning off necessary cookies isn't possible through the banner, but disabling analytics or marketing cookies never breaks navigation — worst case, a third-party widget on one page might not load properly.
Revisions to this policy
We update this page whenever the cookies actually in use change — a new analytics tool, a dropped embed, that kind of thing. There's no fixed schedule; check back occasionally if you want the current picture. Questions about this policy, rather than about an account with the operator, can go to [email protected].
