Our Cookie Policy, In Plain English
What Cookies Actually Are
When you visit playid-aud.com, your browser stores small text files on your device. Those files are cookies. Each one holds a snippet of data that our server (or a partner's server) reads back on your next visit.
Think of a cookie as a sticky note your browser keeps. When you log in, pick a language, or add a bonus to your account, we use these notes to remember it. Without them, you would have to log in again every time you reload a page.
Cookies cannot access other files on your device, install software, or read your personal documents. They only carry the data we or the party that set them chose to put there.
The Cookies We Set
Strictly necessary
These keep the site working. They handle your login session, keep you authenticated as you move between pages, and protect forms against fraud. Without them you cannot sign in, deposit, or play. We do not ask for consent before setting these, because the site cannot function without them.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Opt-out |
|---|---|---|---|
| playid_sid | Maintains your session while logged in | Session (deleted when browser closes) | Not available, strictly necessary |
| playid_auth | Keeps you logged in between visits | 30 days | Not available, strictly necessary |
| playid_csrf | Protects deposit and withdrawal forms | Session | Not available, strictly necessary |
Functional
These remember your choices: your language (English, Deutsch, Français or Español), your currency display (AUD, USD, EUR, BTC, USDT, DOGE), and whether you have already closed our cookie banner. They save you re-doing the same settings on every visit.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Opt-out |
|---|---|---|---|
| playid_lang | Remembers your selected language | 90 days | Via banner or browser settings |
| playid_prefs | Stores display and currency preferences | 90 days | Via banner or browser settings |
Analytics
These show us, in aggregated form, which pages get visited, where players drop off during registration, and how long sessions last. We use the numbers to fix broken pages and improve load times. The data is aggregated; it does not identify you personally.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Opt-out |
|---|---|---|---|
| playid_anon | Aggregated visit statistics | 90 days | Via banner or browser settings |
Marketing
These cookies remember whether you have seen a particular promotion, such as our 50% welcome bonus up to 800 AUD with 200 free spins, so we do not show you the same banner twice. They also support retargeting, which lets us show Playid Casino offers on other sites to people who visited ours. We only set these with your consent.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Opt-out |
|---|---|---|---|
| playid_mkt | Promotion frequency and retargeting | 30 days | Via banner or browser settings |
Cookies From Third Parties
We allow a short list of trusted third parties to set cookies on playid-aud.com. Each has a defined job.
Analytics providers help us count visits and measure page performance. Advertising networks serve our promotional campaigns and measure whether an ad led to a sign-up. Payment providers set cookies during deposit and withdrawal processing to verify transactions and prevent fraud; these are required for PayID, Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, MiFinity, Jeton and crypto payments to complete securely.
We sign data-processing agreements with these parties, and we review the list regularly. If we add a new category of third-party cookie, we update this policy and prompt you again via the banner.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Our consent banner
The first time you land on playid-aud.com, our banner asks you to accept or reject optional cookies. You can change your choice at any time: open the footer, tap Cookie Settings, and adjust the toggles for functional, analytics and marketing categories. Strictly necessary cookies stay on regardless.
In your browser
Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies yourself:
Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies, and block or allow as you prefer.
Safari: Settings, then Privacy, and use the Manage Website Data option to remove stored cookies.
Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data, where you can delete all or selected cookies.
Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, and choose your preferred blocking level.
What happens if you block cookies
Blocking strictly necessary cookies breaks core functions: no login, no deposits, no gameplay. Blocking optional cookies keeps the casino fully usable. You would simply see the banner again on your next visit, lose saved language and currency preferences, and see promotions without personalisation.
How Long We Keep Cookies
Every cookie on our site has an expiry. Session cookies vanish the moment you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay for the period listed below, then delete themselves automatically.
Retention is deliberately short for marketing data and longer for items that simply remember your setup. The table shows the current maximum lifetimes per category.
| Category | Duration | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Session to 30 days | Auth cookie lasts 30 days; others end with your session |
| Functional | 90 days | Language and display preferences |
| Analytics | 90 days | Aggregated statistics only |
| Marketing | 30 days | Shortest retention; consent-based |
Changes We May Make
When we change this policy, whether because we add a cookie category, remove one, or adjust retention periods, we update this page and bump the version at the top of the document. If a change affects your choices materially, the consent banner appears again and asks you to re-confirm your preferences. We will not silently extend what we collect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to accept cookies to play at Playid Casino?
Only strictly necessary ones. Reject the optional categories in the banner and the site still works: you can register, deposit, claim the welcome bonus and play all 12,000 games.
Will deleting cookies log me out?
Yes, deleting the playid_auth cookie ends your saved login. You just sign in again with your credentials. No funds or account data are lost.
Do you use cookies for advertising?
Marketing cookies support promotion frequency and retargeting, but only with your consent. Toggle them off anytime via Cookie Settings in the footer.
Are cookies a security risk?
No. Cookies cannot install software or read your files. They only carry the limited data described in this policy, and our security cookies actively protect your deposits and withdrawals from fraud.
