Our Cookie Policy at Champion Casino
This page spells out every cookie we set when you visit champion-aud.com, why we set it, and how you switch it off. No jargon, no surprises: just the facts you need before you press accept.
What Cookies Actually Do
A cookie is a small text file that our site places on your device when you open it. Your browser stores that file and sends it back to us with each follow-up request, so the site can recognise you between pages and visits.
Without cookies we would not know that you have already logged in, chosen English as your display language, or added funds to your balance. Each page load would reset everything, and even simple actions such as keeping a live tournament leaderboard open would break.
Cookies cannot read files off your hard drive, install software, or access other sites you visit. They only hold the data we or our partners put into them, and you can inspect and delete every one of them through your browser settings.
The Cookies We Set
Strictly necessary
These keep the site running. They carry your session identifier after login, hold your authentication token so you stay signed in, and flag suspicious traffic before it reaches your account. We never ask for consent to switch these off, because the site would not function without them. If you block them anyway, you will not be able to log in or place a wager.
Functional
Functional cookies remember your choices: the language you picked, the game filters you applied last time, your preferred currency among AUD, USD, EUR and the crypto options, and whether you have already seen our age-verification notice. They contain no tracking data and serve no advertising purpose.
Analytics
We use analytics cookies to count visits, see which pages players actually open, and spot where the site is slow. All data is aggregated: we look at patterns across thousands of sessions, not at your individual betting history. Analytics cookies help us decide which games to feature and which pages to fix first.
Marketing
Marketing cookies support retargeting: they let our ad partners recognise that you have visited champion-aud.com and show you our promotion for the welcome bonus, up to 500 AUD plus 100 free spins, instead of a generic ad. These are the only cookies that follow you onto other websites, and they are the only category you can refuse in full without breaking anything.

Who Else Sets Cookies
We do not run this site alone, so some cookies on your device come from partners we work with. Before any partner can drop a cookie here, it must pass our data-protection review and accept our contractual limits on what it may collect.
Analytics partners measure site performance under our instructions. They see traffic numbers and page-level behaviour in aggregate form, and they may not link that data back to your player account.
Advertising partners run the retargeting campaigns that promote our bonuses on other sites. They set their own cookies when our ads appear, and each of those cookies carries its own opt-out, which we link to in the consent banner.
Payment providers set cookies when you deposit with Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, MiFinity, Jeton or crypto. These cookies exist to verify the transaction and protect against fraud, so they sit in the strictly necessary category. Our payment pages also load their security checks, which will not complete if you block them. We never share your betting history, balance, or identity documents with advertising partners.
How You Manage Preferences
Our consent banner
The first time you open champion-aud.com, our banner asks you to choose. Press accept all and every category switches on. Press reject all and only the strictly necessary cookies remain. The third option opens a detailed panel where you toggle analytics and marketing separately; functional cookies stay on either way because they store no tracking data. Change your mind later by opening the cookie settings link in the site footer at any time.
Your browser settings
Every major browser blocks or deletes cookies without our help, and the steps take under a minute:
- Chrome: Settings, Privacy and security, Third-party cookies, then block or clear per site.
- Safari: Settings, Privacy, Manage Website Data, then remove champion-aud.com entries.
- Firefox: Settings, Privacy and Security, Cookies and Site Data, Manage Exceptions.
- Edge: Settings, Cookies and site permissions, Manage and delete cookies and site data.
What happens if you block
Blocking strictly necessary cookies locks you out: login fails, deposits fail, and games will not load past the lobby. Blocking functional cookies resets your language and currency on every visit. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies has no effect on play at all; you simply see generic ads instead of our current promotions, and we lose the traffic data we use to improve the site.
In-private browsing and clearing
Incognito and private windows start with a clean cookie jar, so the banner appears again on each private session. Clearing your browsing data also wipes your stored consent choice, which means the banner will ask you again the next time you open the site.
How Long Cookies Last
We keep each cookie only as long as its job requires. Nothing sits on your device indefinitely.
Session cookies vanish the moment you close your browser. They carry your live session and nothing else, so nothing needs cleaning up afterwards.
Persistent cookies carry fixed expiry dates. Functional cookies last 90 days, analytics cookies last 90 days, and marketing cookies last 90 days, after which your browser deletes them automatically. The consent record lasts 365 days so we do not have to interrupt you with the banner on every visit, and the login token lasts 30 days for your convenience. Delete any cookie earlier through your browser settings, and we set a fresh one only when you return and interact with the site again.
When We Update This Policy
Whenever we add a new cookie category, bring in a new partner, or change a retention period, we update this page and bump the version at the top. If the change affects your choices, the consent banner reappears so you can reconfirm or adjust your settings before the new cookies load. Material changes also get an email to registered players at the address on file. Questions about anything here go to our Data Protection Officer at [email protected], answered around the clock, every day of the year.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to accept cookies to play at Champion Casino?
Only the strictly necessary ones. Reject all in the banner and the site still runs, though you will need to reselect your language and currency each visit and you will not see tailored bonus offers.
Can I change my cookie choice after pressing accept?
Yes. Open the cookie settings link in our footer at any time and adjust the analytics and marketing toggles, or clear your browsing data to reset the banner completely.
Do you use cookies to track my bets?
No. Analytics cookies count visits and page views in aggregate. Your betting history, balance, and documents sit in your account under our privacy policy, not in cookies.
Why do I see the banner again after clearing my browser?
Your consent choice is itself stored as a cookie that lasts 365 days. Wiping your browsing data removes it, so we ask again, which is the correct legal behaviour.
