🍪 Cookies & You

Cookie Policy

What cookies are, which ones Online Banking Casinos Canada uses, why we use them, and how you can control them — explained in plain English for Canadian visitors.

Last updated: September 21, 2026 Effective date: september 15, 2026 Applies to: onlinebankingcasinos.ca

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit it. They allow the site to remember things about your visit — such as your preferences, the pages you looked at, or whether you've already seen a particular message.

Cookies are not programs. They cannot run code, deliver viruses, or access files on your device. They simply store small pieces of information that the site — or a third party the site works with — can read later.

Alongside cookies, we also use closely related technologies such as local storage and tracking pixels. For simplicity, this policy refers to all of them as "cookies."

🍪 Quick Summary

We use four categories of cookies: essential (needed for the site to work), functional (remember your preferences), analytics (help us understand what's working), and affiliate (anonymously track which casino links you click). You can control all except the essential ones.

2. Why We Use Cookies

Cookies serve practical purposes on a website like ours. They help us:

  • Keep the site functional and secure when you navigate between pages.
  • Remember your cookie preferences so you don't see the same banner every visit.
  • Understand which guides and casino reviews Canadian readers find most useful.
  • Measure the performance of our affiliate partnerships without identifying you personally.
  • Detect and prevent abuse, bot traffic, and security threats.

We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles of you, to sell your data to data brokers, or to track you across unrelated websites.

Essential cookies

These are necessary for the website to function. Without them, core features — such as page routing, session management, and security — cannot work. Essential cookies cannot be disabled through our site.

Functional cookies

These remember choices you make to improve your experience — for example, remembering that you've already accepted the cookie banner, or which province you've selected in a region filter. Disabling them may cause some site features to behave unexpectedly.

Analytics cookies

These collect aggregated, anonymised information about how visitors use the site — which pages are visited most, how long people stay, and where they came from. We use this data to improve our content. No individual visitor is identified.

Affiliate cookies

When you click a link to a partner casino from our site, an affiliate cookie is set so the operator knows the visit originated from us. This is how we earn commissions that fund the site. These cookies contain no personal information — no name, email, or banking details — and only record that a click occurred.

Below is an overview of the cookies you may encounter on our site, grouped by purpose. Exact names and lifespans can change as we update the site, so treat this as a representative list rather than an exhaustive registry.

5. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our site are set by third parties we work with. These include:

  • Analytics providers (such as Google Analytics) — used to measure aggregate traffic and behaviour.
  • Affiliate networks — used to attribute clicks and sign-ups to our site.
  • Content delivery and hosting providers — used to serve the site securely and quickly.

These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review. We do not control the cookies they set and cannot disable them on their behalf — but you can manage them through your browser settings or the opt-out tools listed in section 7.

When you first visit our site, you'll see a cookie banner that lets you accept or customise which categories of cookies you allow. Your choice is stored in a cookie_consent cookie so we can respect it on future visits.

Under Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial laws, we rely on your consent for non-essential cookies. Essential cookies are set based on our legitimate interest in operating a secure and functional website.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time — either through the cookie banner (if available on your next visit) or by clearing cookies in your browser (see section 7).

7. How to Manage Cookies

You have several ways to control cookies:

  1. Our cookie banner: On your first visit, choose "Accept all," "Reject non-essential," or customise per category.
  2. Browser settings: Every major browser lets you view, block, or delete cookies. See section 8 for step-by-step guides.
  3. Analytics opt-out: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits across all sites.
  4. Advertising opt-out: In Canada, you can use the AdChoices program to opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies.

Note: blocking or deleting cookies does not remove you from any casino marketing list — those are managed by the operators themselves, not by us.

8. Browser-by-Browser Guides

Each browser handles cookies slightly differently. Use the official help pages below to manage cookies in yours:

9. What Happens If You Disable Cookies

If you disable cookies entirely, you can still read our content, but some features may not work as intended:

  • Essential cookies blocked: Parts of the site may fail to load or display correctly, and forms may not submit.
  • Functional cookies blocked: You'll be asked for the same preferences (such as region selection) on each visit.
  • Analytics cookies blocked: No impact on your experience — we simply won't see your visit in our aggregate reports.
  • Affiliate cookies blocked: No impact on your experience — but you may not receive some partner offers that rely on click attribution.

10. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting that signals to websites that you don't want to be tracked. There is currently no industry-wide standard for how DNT should be interpreted, and our site does not respond to DNT signals automatically.

Instead, we rely on the consent choices you make in our cookie banner and on the browser controls described above. If you wish to limit tracking, we recommend using those tools alongside a privacy-focused browser extension.

11. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, our providers, or applicable law. The "Last updated" date at the top of the page always reflects the most recent revision.

Where changes are material, we will take reasonable steps to notify you — for example, by re-displaying the cookie banner. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
