Our Cookie Policy
This page explains which cookies vavecasino1.uk uses, why we use them, how long they stay on your device and what you can do about them. We launched in 2022 and this policy has applied to every visit since then, reviewed as of 2026.
What Cookies Actually Are
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. It stores a few pieces of data, such as a session identifier or your chosen language, so the site recognises you the next time you arrive.
Cookies are not programmes and cannot read files from your device or install anything on it. We use them, alongside similar technologies such as local storage and pixels, to keep you logged in, remember your preferences and understand, in aggregate, how our pages perform. Each cookie has a name, a value and an expiry date, and you can inspect or delete any of them through your browser at any time.
The Cookies We Set
Strictly necessary
These cookies are essential for vavecasino1.uk to function. They keep your session alive as you move between pages, hold your login state so you do not have to sign in on every click, and protect your account and payments with security tokens and anti-fraud checks. Without them, you cannot log in, deposit or play. We do not ask for consent for this category because the site simply does not work without it.
Functional
Functional cookies remember choices you have made: your language (English, Español or Français), your odds format in our sportsbook, currency display (GBP, USD, EUR, BTC, ETH or USDT) and sound or animation settings in games. They are convenient rather than essential; if you block them, the site still works but forgets your choices each visit.
Analytics
Analytics cookies collect aggregated data about how visitors use our pages: which games are opened most, where people drop off during registration, how long a deposit flow takes. The data is anonymised and reported in totals, never tied to your name or balance. We use it to fix broken pages and improve navigation.
Marketing
Marketing cookies support our promotional activity, including retargeting. If you saw our welcome offer (100% up to 2,000 GBP plus 100 free spins on a 20 GBP minimum deposit) but left without claiming it, these cookies let our advertising partners show you a reminder. They are set only with your consent, which you can withdraw at any moment.
| Category | Example cookie names | Purpose | Duration | Opt-out |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | SESSIONID, AUTH_TOKEN, CSRF | Login, session, security | Session to 30 days | Cannot be disabled |
| Functional | LANG, CURRENCY, ODDS_FMT | Language and display preferences | 90 days | Banner or browser settings |
| Analytics | _GA, _GA_CONTAINER | Aggregated usage statistics | Up to 365 days | Banner or browser settings |
| Marketing | _FBP, IDE | Retargeting and campaign measurement | Up to 90 days | Banner or browser settings |
Third Party Cookies We Allow
Some cookies on our pages are placed by partners we work with, not by us directly. There are three categories. Analytics providers help us count visits and measure page speed; they receive anonymised, aggregated data only. Advertising networks serve and measure our promotional campaigns, including the retargeting described above; they set cookies only if you have consented. Payment providers such as the processors behind Visa Debit, Mastercard Debit, Trustly, Skrill, Neteller and the crypto options may set cookies during a deposit or withdrawal to verify the transaction and prevent fraud.
We vet every partner before it goes live on our domain, contractually limit what data it may collect and review the list regularly. Third parties never receive your password, your balance or your KYC documents through cookies.
Manage Your Cookie Choices
On our site
The first time you visit vavecasino1.uk, our cookie banner appears. You can accept all categories or click through to granular controls and toggle functional, analytics and marketing cookies independently. Strictly necessary cookies are always on because the site cannot operate without them. You can reopen the banner at any time through the "Cookie settings" link in the footer of every page and change your mind as often as you like.
In your browser
You can also block or delete cookies directly in your browser, whatever your choice on our banner.
- Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies, and block or clear as you prefer.
- Safari: Settings, then Privacy, and use Manage Website Data to remove stored cookies.
- Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security, and choose your cookie behaviour under Enhanced Tracking Protection.
- Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, and block or delete cookies per site.
What happens if you block them
Blocking strictly necessary cookies means you cannot sign in, deposit, withdraw or play a single round at Vave Casino. Blocking functional cookies makes the site usable but forgetful: your language and display settings reset every visit. Blocking analytics and marketing cookies has no effect on gameplay at all; you will simply see fewer relevant promotions and we will know less about how our pages perform.
How Long We Keep Them
Every cookie we or our partners set carries an expiry date, and we keep those periods as short as the purpose allows. Session cookies are the shortest: they live in your browser's memory and vanish the moment you close the tab. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
- Session cookies (login state, security tokens): deleted when you close your browser.
- 30 days: security and fraud-prevention tokens tied to a remembered device.
- 90 days: functional preferences (language, currency, odds format) and marketing retargeting identifiers.
- 365 days: aggregated analytics counters that compare visitor behaviour year on year.
Changes To This Policy
We review this Cookie Policy whenever we add a partner, change a provider or adjust how long data is kept. If a change materially affects your privacy, we notify you before it takes effect, either by email to your registered address or through a notice on site, and the updated version is published here with a new effective date. If new cookie categories appear, we ask for fresh consent through the banner rather than assuming your previous choice still stands.
Questions about cookies or anything in this policy? Our live chat runs 24/7 and you can also write to [email protected]; we answer data protection enquiries as a priority.
Frequently asked questions
Do you need cookies to play at Vave Casino?
Only the strictly necessary ones. They hold your login session and security tokens; without them you cannot deposit, withdraw or open a game. Analytics and marketing cookies are optional and never affect gameplay.
Can I change my cookie choices later?
Yes. Open the "Cookie settings" link in our site footer at any time and toggle functional, analytics and marketing cookies on or off. Your new choice applies immediately.
Do cookies ever contain my password or card details?
No. Cookies never store your password, card number, balance or KYC documents. Payment providers use short-lived cookies solely to verify transactions and prevent fraud.
How long do analytics cookies stay on my device?
Analytics counters can persist for up to 365 days because they compare aggregated behaviour year on year. Marketing and functional cookies last up to 90 days, and session cookies disappear when you close your browser.
What happens if I block all cookies in my browser?
You will not be able to sign in or play, because session and security cookies are essential. If you want to keep playing, allow strictly necessary cookies and leave the optional categories switched off.
