What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser so it can recognise you between page loads and visits. Cookies do not run code on your device and they cannot read other files. They simply hold short pieces of information that the site can read back later, such as your language preference or a session token that keeps you logged in.
Which cookies does Jackbit Casino use?
Strictly necessary cookies keep core site functions working. These cover authentication, session management, security tokens and the cookie consent state itself. They cannot be switched off because the site cannot function without them. Functional cookies remember preferences like language, recently played games and live chat sessions. Analytics cookies track anonymous usage so we can see which parts of the site work well and which need work. Marketing cookies let us show relevant Jackbit offers across our partner network and measure campaign performance.
How do I change my cookie preferences?
You can change preferences at any time by opening the cookie banner from the footer link or directly from your browser settings. The Jackbit consent panel lets you switch functional, analytics and marketing categories on and off independently. Changes take effect immediately on the next page load.
Do you use third-party cookies?
Yes, in limited cases. Analytics is powered by a privacy-respecting provider that uses first-party cookies wherever possible. Affiliate tracking relies on a small number of third-party cookies to attribute the source of new player registrations. Live chat sets its own session cookie to maintain conversation context. Each third-party provider is named in the cookie consent panel along with a link to their own policy.
Will Jackbit work if I block cookies?
Strictly necessary cookies cannot be blocked because login, security and session state depend on them. Blocking functional, analytics and marketing cookies is fully supported and only affects optional features. If you block all cookies via your browser, you will not be able to log in or play.
Cookie lifespan and fingerprinting
Session cookies expire when you close the browser. Persistent cookies have an expiry date that ranges from a few days for preferences to up to two years for analytics. The consent panel shows the exact lifespan of each cookie category. Limited device fingerprinting is used for fraud prevention and account-security checks, which is permitted as a legitimate interest under UK GDPR. Fingerprint data is not used for advertising and is not sold.
Granular opt-outs and complaints
The consent panel lets you accept strictly necessary, functional and analytics cookies while declining marketing cookies. Your preferences are stored and respected across future visits. To report a cookie issue, email the privacy contact listed in the footer with a description of the problem. Cookie complaints can also be raised with the UK Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk if you are not satisfied with our response.
How do strictly necessary cookies keep the cashier safe?
Strictly necessary cookies hold a session token that proves you are logged in, a CSRF token that blocks a category of attack against the cashier, and a small consent state that records which optional categories you have accepted. Without these cookies the login screen cannot keep you signed in between pages, the cashier cannot validate that a withdrawal request originated from your own browser, and the consent banner would reappear on every page load. They never carry advertising identifiers and never leave the operator's own domain. The wider data lifecycle for your account is covered on the Privacy Policy page.
How do analytics and marketing cookies differ?
Analytics cookies measure aggregate behaviour, such as which lobby filters get the most clicks, which support articles resolve issues fastest and which sports markets attract the most placed tickets. The data is anonymised and is used to make product decisions about which features to invest in. Marketing cookies are different: they let Jackbit Casino measure the performance of advertising campaigns on partner networks and serve relevant offers across the wider web. Both categories are entirely optional and can be toggled independently from the consent banner at any time. Support questions about cookies, consent or browser issues are resolved by the team on the Help page.
Can I withdraw consent later?
Yes. Reopen the cookie banner from the footer link at any time and toggle individual categories on or off. The change takes effect immediately on the next page load and is honoured across future visits because the consent state itself is stored in a strictly necessary cookie. If you would rather close the account entirely, the Close Account page documents how to deactivate or fully delete the account, and what happens to data afterwards.
Cookie lifespans, fingerprinting and device-level signals
Session cookies expire as soon as you close the browser tab, while persistent cookies have explicit expiry dates that range from a few days for short-term preferences to up to two years for long-running analytics measurement. The consent panel surfaces the exact lifespan of each cookie category so you can see what is stored and for how long before you accept. Limited device fingerprinting is used purely for fraud prevention and account-security checks; it pairs with the cookie layer to flag unusual login patterns such as a sudden change of geography or browser. Fingerprint signals are not used for advertising and are not shared with marketing partners.
Affiliate-tracking cookies attribute the source of new player registrations to the channel that referred you, which is how the operator settles commercial relationships with publishers. The cookies carry no personal data and expire within a window that is published in the consent panel. You can block affiliate cookies under the marketing toggle without affecting your account or your ability to claim promotions.
Browser-level controls and reporting concerns
Every modern browser ships granular cookie controls in its privacy settings. You can block third-party cookies entirely, clear stored cookies between sessions, or set per-site rules that override the global default. Doing so will not break login or the cashier because strictly necessary cookies on Jackbit Casino are first-party. To report a cookie issue, email the privacy contact in the footer with a description of the problem; cookie complaints can also be raised with the UK Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk if you are not satisfied with the response.
