Cookies Policy for Roobet

This Cookies Policy explains how Roobet and its web services use cookies and related browser technologies to support session handling, site performance, personalised settings, analytics, and secure access. The aim is to give clear, practical information about what is stored in your browser, why it matters, and how you can manage those settings.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed in your browser or device storage when you visit a website. They hold simple data such as a session identifier, a language choice, or a flag that remembers a previous action. Other browser storage - for example localStorage or sessionStorage - serves similar purposes and is also covered here.

Why cookies are used

Cookies and browser storage help the site perform basic functions and improve how pages load and behave. Typical uses include:

keeping you logged in while you move between pages;
remembering language and display preferences;
measuring page performance and feature use so we can fix bugs and speed up pages;
supporting analytics that report aggregated visitor behaviour;
enabling third‑party widgets such as payment, chat, or streaming components;
applying consent choices and marketing preferences.

Essential cookies

Essential cookies are required for the site to function. They enable core features such as secure login, navigation, and session continuity. Without these cookies some parts of the site will not work correctly and access to account areas may be prevented.

Session cookies

Session cookies are temporary and expire when you close your browser. They are commonly used to maintain a secure session during a visit - for example to preserve your authenticated state while you move between pages or complete transactions.

Persistent cookies

Persistent cookies remain stored on your device after the browser is closed and are used for things like remembering your language preference or keeping you logged in over multiple visits. Their duration varies depending on purpose and the setting chosen when the cookie is created.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies store choices you make on the site so features are personalised. Examples include remembering preferred currency display, chosen layout settings, and saved filters. These cookies improve convenience and reduce repetitive steps on return visits.

Analytics and performance cookies

These cookies gather information about how visitors use the site, which pages are visited most, and whether errors occur. The data is aggregated and used to prioritise fixes, improve navigation, and make pages faster. Analytics cookies do not identify you personally in reports.

Preference and language settings

Preference cookies remember settings such as language, time zone, and other display options you choose. Selecting a preferred language or theme will typically set a persistent cookie so those choices are applied automatically on your next visit.

Login and session continuity

Cookies and session storage allow the site to retain login status safely across page loads. If you opt for a persistent login, a cookie or equivalent token will be set so you do not need to re-enter credentials on each visit. For security reasons persistent login tokens may be refreshed or invalidated periodically.

Device recognition

Device recognition cookies help identify the device you use to access the site. This supports fraud detection, prevents suspicious simultaneous logins, and helps present the best layout for your screen size. Recognising a device also speeds up repeat visits by reusing cached settings.

Security-related cookies

Security cookies assist with protective measures such as guarding against cross-site requests and replay attacks, or tracking whether a session is valid. They play a role in account safety and in preventing automated abuse. These cookies are essential for secure operation.

Browser storage technologies

Beyond cookies, the site may use localStorage, sessionStorage, and similar browser APIs to store non-sensitive state on your device. These mechanisms are used for faster access to settings, buffering temporary data, and improving responsiveness without involving server calls.

Third-party integrations

Some services embedded on the site are provided by third parties and may set their own cookies when active. Common examples include analytics providers, payment gateways, live chat widgets, and content delivery or streaming services. Third-party cookies are subject to the privacy practices and controls of those providers.

Marketing and communication preferences

Marketing cookies are used only if you consent and help tailor communications and offers based on aggregated browsing behaviour. You can control these preferences through the cookie settings panel or by adjusting marketing options in your account if available.

Cookie consent management

On first visit you will be offered a consent banner that explains cookie categories and lets you accept or adjust settings. You can change your choices at any time via the Cookie Settings link in the site footer or through account preferences. Withdrawing consent for non-essential cookies does not affect essential site functions.

Browser cookie controls

Most browsers let you view, block, or delete cookies via their settings or preferences menu. Adjusting these controls allows you to refuse non-essential cookies site-wide or on a per-site basis. Consult your browser help for exact steps to manage cookies and site data.

Clearing or disabling cookies

Clearing cookies removes stored choices and may log you out of accounts. Disabling cookies can prevent features such as saved preferences, persistent logins, and personalised content. For full functionality it is recommended to keep essential cookies enabled while you may disable optional categories if you prefer.

Site functionality impact when cookies are disabled

Turning off all cookies or blocking certain categories can affect how the site behaves. Possible impacts include:

inability to stay logged in between pages;
missing language or display preferences;
limited access to interactive features such as chat or streamed content;
loss of personalised offers or saved filters;
reduced ability to diagnose technical issues during a session.

Technical diagnostics and performance optimisation

When errors occur, temporary diagnostic cookies or local storage entries may be created to help engineers reproduce and fix issues. Performance cookies also support load balancing and caching strategies that make pages open faster and reduce interruptions during play.

Aggregated analytics information

Analytics data is generally aggregated and anonymised before reporting. This helps us understand trends such as which pages are most visited, common navigation paths, and drop-off points so we can prioritise improvements. Aggregated reports do not expose your identity.

User experience improvements

Cookies and browser storage let us present fewer prompts, remember confirmation choices, and speed up workflows. These small conveniences add up to a smoother browsing experience and fewer interruptions while you use the site.

How long cookies last

Cookie lifetimes vary by purpose. Session cookies expire when your browser closes. Persistent cookies can last from a few days to several months depending on the setting they support. Diagnostic or consent cookies may be kept for longer to preserve preferences or to monitor stability over time.

How to change your choices

To review and change cookie preferences:

use the Cookie Settings link at the bottom of the site to update categories and consent;
clear cookies or block them via your browser settings;
adjust marketing or notification preferences inside your account where that option is provided.

Contact and support

If you have questions about cookie use or need help changing settings, check the Help section on the site for step-by-step guidance. For further assistance consult the site’s privacy page or support resources available in your account.
