Cookie Policy

SweepShark Casino uses cookies and similar technologies to keep the site secure, remember your preferences, improve performance, and understand how visitors use the platform. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, why they are used, what types of cookies may be placed on your device, and how you can control them.

This policy applies to the SweepShark Casino website, including pages connected to your account, promotions, gameplay, customer support, and related features. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and any other notices shown when you visit the site or create an account.

What Cookies Really Do on This Site

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, phone, or tablet when you visit a website. They help the site recognize your browser, store certain settings, and support features that make the website work properly.

Some cookies last only while your browser is open. These are often called “session cookies.” Others stay on your device for a longer period and are known as “persistent cookies.” In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, scripts, SDKs, or local storage to support the same general purposes described in this policy.

Why SweepShark Casino Uses Cookies

Cookies help SweepShark Casino deliver a smoother and safer user experience. They may be used to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, verify your identity during account activity, support game loading, and help customer support tools function correctly.

They can also be used to measure site traffic, identify technical problems, improve page speed, understand how visitors move through the website, and evaluate whether content, promotions, or features are working as intended. In some cases, cookies may support advertising, retargeting, or campaign measurement through third-party services.

The Key Types of Cookies You May See

SweepShark Casino may use several categories of cookies, depending on the page you visit and the services being used at that time.

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function. These cookies support core features such as page navigation, secure login, fraud prevention, account authentication, payment routing, consent storage, and access to protected areas of the website. Without these cookies, certain parts of the site may not work properly.

Functional cookies help remember choices you make. For example, they may store language preferences, region settings, login preferences, support chat history, or interface customizations. These cookies help make future visits more convenient and personalized.

Performance and analytics cookies collect information about how users interact with the website. They may track which pages are visited most often, how long users stay on certain screens, whether errors occur, and how visitors reach the site. The information collected is generally used to improve website speed, design, navigation, and overall performance.

Marketing cookies may be used to measure advertising effectiveness, limit repetitive ads, and help show more relevant promotions on this site or on third-party platforms. These cookies can track browsing activity across websites over time, subject to applicable law and your consent choices.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies Explained

Some cookies are set directly by SweepShark Casino. These are called first-party cookies. They are usually used for account access, security, site settings, and basic functionality.

Other cookies may be placed by trusted service providers that support website operations. These are called third-party cookies. Third parties may provide analytics, payment processing, fraud detection, customer support chat, marketing tools, content delivery, or embedded media services.

Because SweepShark Casino supports payment methods such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, MasterCard, and Visa, certain payment-related services may use cookies or similar technologies to process transactions, prevent abuse, and confirm payment sessions. If you interact with these services, their own privacy and cookie practices may also apply.

How Cookies Support Security and Account Protection

Security is a major reason cookies are used on gambling and sweepstakes-style gaming websites. Cookies may help identify suspicious activity, maintain secure sessions, prevent repeated failed login abuse, and reduce the risk of unauthorized account access.

They may also support age and eligibility checks, fraud screening, abuse prevention, and system monitoring. These uses are especially important on pages involving sign-in, purchases, verification steps, redemptions, and customer support.

How Cookies Improve Performance and User Experience

Cookies can make the website faster and easier to use. For example, they may store settings so pages load with your preferred layout, help game lobbies display correctly, remember recently viewed sections, and reduce the need to re-enter information during a session.

They can also help us understand which pages, promotions, or game categories are drawing attention, whether users encounter broken links or loading issues, and which devices or browsers may need better support. That information helps improve the overall site experience over time.

How Analytics Cookies Help Us Understand Site Activity

Analytics cookies may collect technical and behavioral data such as browser type, device type, operating system, IP-based location data, referring pages, session duration, click activity, and page interactions. This information is typically aggregated or pseudonymized and used for reporting, troubleshooting, and optimization.

We may use analytics tools to understand broad traffic trends, compare page performance, and identify where users abandon forms or leave the site. These insights help us improve navigation, registration flows, support access, and promotional placements.

When Marketing Cookies May Be Used

Marketing cookies are not required for the core website to work, but they may be used to support promotional campaigns and audience measurement. For example, they can help determine whether someone clicked an ad before visiting SweepShark Casino, whether a campaign led to account registration, or whether the same promotion has already been shown to a visitor.

If enabled, these cookies may be placed by advertising partners, social media platforms, or analytics and attribution providers. They may build a profile of interests based on browsing behavior, but they do not directly reveal your password or financial details.

Cookie Consent and Your Choices

When required by law, SweepShark Casino will request your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. This usually happens through a cookie banner, pop-up, or preference center when you first visit the site.

You can accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or adjust your preferences where that option is available. Essential cookies generally do not require opt-in consent because they are necessary for the website to operate securely and correctly.

If you later change your mind, you may be able to update your preferences through the cookie settings tool on the website, if available. You can also manage cookies directly through your browser settings.

How to Disable or Delete Cookies in Your Browser

Most web browsers let you review, block, delete, or limit cookies. The exact steps depend on the browser and device you use, but settings are usually found in the privacy or security section.

You can generally choose to:

• delete existing cookies,
• block all cookies,
• allow only certain cookies,
• block third-party cookies, or
• clear cookies when you close the browser.

If you disable essential cookies, some parts of SweepShark Casino may stop working as intended. You may have trouble staying logged in, making purchases, using secure account features, accessing support tools, or loading games properly.

What Happens If You Refuse Certain Cookies

Rejecting non-essential cookies should not stop you from visiting the website, but it may affect convenience and personalization. For example, the site may not remember your settings, some support features may reload each time, and certain content or promotions may be less relevant to your interests.

If you block all cookies, including essential ones, major features may fail. That can include account login, identity verification steps, responsible platform controls, payment flows, and parts of the gameplay environment.

Third-Party Services That May Set Cookies

SweepShark Casino may rely on outside vendors to support services such as:

• website analytics,
• payment processing,
• fraud prevention,
• cloud hosting and content delivery,
• customer support chat,
• email communications,
• marketing performance measurement, and
• embedded content or media.

These providers may place their own cookies when you use the website or interact with their tools. Those cookies are governed by the third party’s own privacy notices, in addition to this policy where applicable.

How Long Cookies Stay on Your Device

The duration of a cookie depends on its purpose. Session cookies usually expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire automatically or are deleted manually through your browser settings.

Retention periods can vary widely. Some cookies may last only a few minutes, while others may remain for months if they support preferences, analytics comparisons, fraud controls, or consent records.

Children’s Privacy and Restricted Access

SweepShark Casino is not intended for minors. Cookies are not knowingly used to target children, and the website is intended only for users who meet applicable age and eligibility requirements in permitted jurisdictions.

If you believe a minor has provided personal information through the website, please contact us so the matter can be reviewed promptly.

Updates to This Cookie Policy

SweepShark Casino may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in legal requirements, technology, vendor relationships, or website features. When that happens, the revised version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date if applicable.

Material changes may also be highlighted through a website notice or updated consent prompt where required. You should review this page periodically to stay informed about how cookies are being used.

Related Privacy Information You Should Know

Cookies are only one part of how information may be collected and used on the website. To learn more about how personal information is handled, stored, and protected, users should also review the SweepShark Casino page and any separate privacy-related disclosures made available on the site.

Where a third-party tool collects data through cookies, that provider may act as an independent controller or service provider depending on the situation and applicable law.
