How Boo Casino Uses Cookies
What Cookies Actually Do?
Every time you open a page on our site, the server sends small data files to your browser. The browser saves them – and on your next visit, sends them back. This is how the site knows what language to display, whether you are logged in, and what settings you chose before. This exchange happens automatically and takes milliseconds.
Blocking some types of cookies may limit access to certain functionalities offered by the website. The cookies that are absolutely essential for the working of the website can not be blocked as they are mandatory for the website to work properly.
Types of Cookies
We categorize all cookies by their purpose, which helps us comprehend their purpose. The following categories exist: strictly necessary cookies, functional cookies, analytical cookies, and targeting cookies. Each category has its unique function and specific scope of data access.
Strictly Necessary
These cookies are activated in response to user-initiated actions such as logging into an account, navigating between sections, and adjusting settings. These cookies are essential for the site to function properly. Essential cookies do not store any personally identifiable information, have no other functions, and are enabled at all times. You cannot disable essential cookies.
Functional
Functional cookies store user preferences, including language, currency and interface parameters, so that these settings are retained between visits. This category also supports account security monitoring, such as identifying login attempts from unrecognised devices. Functional cookies are not used for advertising purposes.
Analytical
Analytical cookies provide data on how visitors interact with the site – which sections receive the most traffic, where usability issues arise and how behavioural patterns change over time. This data is used exclusively for internal analysis and is not shared with third parties for marketing purposes. Disabling analytical cookies means the visit will not be recorded, and the user’s experience will not be reflected in platform improvements.
Targeting
Targeting cookies are placed by advertising partners. They record browser and device parameters – not personal identity – and are used to serve relevant advertisements on third-party websites. Data collected through targeting cookies may be processed by partners independently, in accordance with their own privacy policies. These cookies can be managed through browser settings.
Players of Boo Casino New Zealand interact with the same cookie system as users from other regions. There are no geographical differences in the composition of files used.
How Long Files Are Stored
Cookies vary significantly in how long they stay on your device – from a single session to several years. The retention period depends on the file’s purpose and the provider that set it.
Session Cookies
These last exactly as long as the browser tab is open. When the session ends, the files disappear. They handle the current state of the site during your visit: authorisation, temporary settings, and in-platform navigation. After closing the browser, no trace of them remains.
Persistent Cookies
They remain stored on the computer even after the web browser has been closed. The length of storage for them is predefined prior to installation, either by us or by the supplier, and may vary anywhere between several days and several years, depending on the purposes of the particular file. These cookies are essential for recording preferences, log-ins, and monitoring the efficiency of the ads we display.
Providers and Their Files
The site runs cookies from several external services. Each one performs a specific function.
| Provider | Cookie | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| _ga, _gid, _gcl_au | Traffic statistics and testing of advertising campaigns via AdSense. _ga and _gid assign a unique ID to each visitor for statistical accumulation, _gcl_au measures ad effectiveness | |
| _fbp | Targeted advertising and real-time auctions through the Meta partner network | |
| Bing | _uetsid, _uetvid | Behavioural targeting on Microsoft partner sites. _uetsid collects behavioural data across multiple sites, _uetvid tracks visitors to show relevant ads |
| Hotjar | _hjid, _hjFirstSeen, _hjTLDTest | User behaviour analysis, heatmaps, scroll depth. _hjid saves a unique user ID for correct visit attribution, and _hjTLDTest determines the optimal cookie path on subdomains |
| Comm100 | comm100_guid, comm100_visitor | User identification in the support chat. Both files save an ID so that the history of interactions is correctly linked to a specific user |
| Cloudflare | cfduid | Traffic filtering and protection against unwanted requests. Helps distinguish legitimate users from automated requests |
| Green Feather Online | cookiePolicyConsent, btag | cookiePolicyConsent records acceptance of the policy, so the notification is not shown again. btag saves the partner tag from the URL and passes it during registration or deposit |
Below is a breakdown of what each provider’s files do and why they are present on our platform. Each of these companies processes data under its own policies. Details are available on their official websites.
Data and Third Parties
Advertising partners, including Google, Facebook and Bing, receive certain data through cookies placed on the Boo Casino website. These partners process the data for their own purposes, including ad delivery, audience segmentation, and performance measurement. User information is never sold nor transferred to any other third party company.
That said, the technical nature of targeting cookies means that device-level information is transmitted to advertising networks as part of standard ad-serving processes. Users who wish to prevent this transmission should disable targeting cookies through their browser settings. This remains the most effective method of limiting data exposure to advertising partners.
Managing Cookie Settings
All major browsers provide tools for configuring cookie behaviour. Users may block specific cookie categories, delete previously stored files or enable notifications when new cookies are set. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, Internet Explorer and the Android browser each offer this functionality, though the exact path to settings differs between them.
On iPhone and iPad, cookie and advertising preferences are located in the Privacy & Security section of the system menu. On Android devices, the relevant settings are typically found under the Google section of system settings, within the Ads subsection. Both platforms allow users to reset the advertising identifier or to opt out of personalised advertising.
Browser Tracking Preferences
Some browsers send websites a special signal – a request not to track user activity. We receive such signals, but the platform’s behaviour does not change in response. The reason is straightforward: there is no unified standard for this feature. Different browsers send the signal in different ways, and users are often unaware that it is active.
If the goal is to genuinely limit tracking, browser settings deliver a more predictable outcome. There, you can manage each type of cookie individually. General information about cookies and how they work can be found at allaboutcookies.org and youronlinechoices.co.uk.
