2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your computer, mobile phone, or tablet when you visit that website. These files are stored in your browser and allow the website to recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit.

Cookies usually contain:

• The name of the website that set the cookie

Cookies help make websites function properly, keep sessions active, remember your choices, and provide statistics and insights that improve services. On StarkBet, cookies are used to support account security, payment processing, game sessions, and responsible gaming controls.

3. Other tracking technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use tools that work in a similar way, such as:

• Web beacons (also called tracking pixels)
• Local storage and session storage in your browser
• Software development kits (SDKs) in the StarkBet Android app

These technologies help us measure traffic, detect technical problems, prevent abuse, and improve your user experience. For simplicity, this Cookie Policy refers to all these technologies as “cookies”, unless we specifically state otherwise.

4. How StarkBet uses cookies

We use cookies on StarkBet for different purposes. Some cookies are necessary for the basic functioning of the Website and cannot be disabled from our side. Other cookies are used to improve performance, remember your preferences, and support marketing and analytics.

In general, StarkBet uses cookies for the following reasons:

• To run the Website and the StarkBet Casino platform securely

5. Types of cookies we use

We group cookies used on our Website into the following categories:

5.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the proper functioning of StarkBet. They allow you to move around the Website, register an account, log in securely, place bets, start game sessions, and use payment services.

Without these cookies, parts of the Website would not work correctly. Because of this, strictly necessary cookies cannot be switched off through our internal tools. You can still block them in your browser, but this will affect core functions of the Website.

We may use strictly necessary cookies to:

• Identify you as a logged-in user
• Maintain your active session when you move between pages
• Process deposits and withdrawals securely
• Display the Website in your chosen language and currency
• Apply bonus conditions and verify eligibility
• Enable responsible gaming tools available in your account

5.2 Functionality cookies

Functionality cookies let the Website remember choices you make and provide a smoother experience that suits your preferences.

These cookies help us:

• Remember your preferred language (for example, English)
• Remember your region and currency (for example, INR)
• Store your display and sound settings for certain games
• Remember whether you have dismissed a pop-up message or announcement
• Keep your selected deposit method for future visits

Functionality cookies are not strictly essential, but they improve how the Website works for you. If you disable these cookies, some features may not work as expected.

5.3 Performance and analytics cookies

Performance and analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use StarkBet and where we can improve the Website and services. These cookies collect information about:

• Which pages are visited and how often
• How long visitors stay on each page
• Which games and sections attract more attention
• Technical errors or slow loading issues

The data collected through these cookies is usually aggregated and does not directly identify you. We use it to improve the structure of the Website, make pages load faster, and ensure that players can find what they need, such as bonuses, payment methods, and support.

5.4 Advertising and marketing cookies

Advertising and marketing cookies are used to promote StarkBet services on partner websites, social networks, and other online platforms. They help us present ads that may be more relevant for you and measure the effectiveness of our promotional campaigns.

These cookies may be placed by StarkBet or by our third-party marketing partners. They may collect information about your visits to our Website and other websites, such as:

• Which pages you viewed
• Which ads you clicked
• Your approximate location (based on IP address)
• Device and browser type

Based on this information, you may see StarkBet ads or related offers on other websites or apps. You can control the use of these cookies through your browser and, in some cases, through the cookie banners and preferences we provide.

5.5 Security and fraud prevention cookies

Security and fraud prevention cookies help protect both StarkBet and our players. These cookies help us:

• Detect unusual login patterns and block suspicious activity
• Protect player accounts from unauthorised access
• Reduce payment fraud and abuse of bonuses
• Comply with legal and regulatory requirements in relevant jurisdictions

Some of these cookies may be strictly necessary for security and compliance. Disabling them may reduce our ability to protect your account.

6. First-party and third-party cookies

Cookies used on StarkBet can be set either by StarkBet itself (first-party cookies) or by other companies (third-party cookies).

6.1 First-party cookies

First-party cookies are placed on your device directly by StarkBet. They are mainly used to keep your session active, manage your preferences, remember your login status, and provide features related to gameplay and payments.

These may include:
