Treasury Casino Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy applies to the official Treasury Casino website operated under the Treasury Brisbane brand, which forms part of The Star Entertainment Group. The purpose of this document is to explain what cookies are, how they are used on the Treasury Casino website, the legal basis for that use under Australian privacy law, and the options available to users regarding cookie management.

By accessing or continuing to use the Treasury Casino website, users acknowledge that cookies may be placed on their device in accordance with this Cookie Policy. This policy should be read together with the Privacy Policy maintained by The Star Entertainment Group, which governs the collection, use, and handling of personal information across the group’s digital channels.

2. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on a user’s device, including computers, tablets, and mobile devices, when a website is visited. Cookies allow a website to recognise a device on subsequent visits and to retain certain information about how the site was used. Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies a user by name, but in some cases the information they collect may constitute personal information under Australian law when combined with other data held by the operator.

Cookies may be set by the website being visited (first-party cookies) or by third-party services operating on that website, such as analytics or advertising providers (third-party cookies).

3. How Treasury Casino Uses Cookies

The Treasury Casino website uses cookies for the following purposes:

3.1 Enhancing user experience

Cookies are used to remember user preferences and settings so that the website can function efficiently during a visit and on return visits. This includes retaining session-related information that allows users to navigate the site without repeated interruptions.

3.2 Relevant content and advertising

Cookies are used to deliver content and advertisements that are more relevant to the interests of individual users. This may involve tracking browsing activity across the Treasury Casino website and, where third-party advertising services are involved, across other websites. The purpose is to present information that corresponds to demonstrated user interests rather than generic content.

3.3 Analytics and website performance

Cookies may be used to collect aggregated data about how users interact with the website, including which pages are visited, how long users remain on particular pages, and how users arrive at the site. This information is used to assess and improve website performance and content structure.

4. Legal Framework Applicable in Australia

Treasury Casino operates in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The collection and handling of personal information, including information gathered through cookies, is subject to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) administered by the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).

Australia does not have a specific legislative instrument equivalent to the European Union’s Cookie Directive or the General Data Protection Regulation. However, where cookies collect or process information that constitutes personal information as defined under the Privacy Act 1988, the APPs apply. This includes obligations relating to transparency, purpose limitation, and the security of personal information.

Cookie practices used on the Treasury Casino website are intended to be consistent with these obligations. The cookie notice displayed on the website informs users of cookie use prior to or at the point of continued engagement with the site.

5. Consent

By continuing to use the Treasury Casino website after the cookie notice has been displayed, users are taken to have consented to the use of cookies as described in this Cookie Policy. This approach to consent reflects current common practice among Australian website operators and the existing regulatory environment under the Privacy Act 1988.

Users who do not consent to the use of cookies should discontinue use of the website or adjust their browser settings as described in Section 6 of this document.

6. Managing and Disabling Cookies

Users can manage cookie settings through their web browser. Most browsers allow users to:

• View cookies currently stored on their device
• Delete cookies that have already been set
• Block cookies from being set in the future, either from all websites or from specified websites
• Receive a notification before a cookie is placed

Instructions for managing cookies vary depending on the browser in use. Users should consult the help documentation provided by their browser for specific guidance. Common browsers include, but are not limited to, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge.

Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the Treasury Casino website. Certain features that rely on session or preference data may not operate as intended if cookies are blocked or deleted.

7. Third-Party Cookies

The Treasury Casino website may include functionality provided by third-party services, including analytics platforms and advertising networks. These third parties may set their own cookies on users’ devices when those users visit the Treasury Casino website. Treasury Casino does not control the cookie practices of third-party providers. Users seeking information about third-party cookies should refer to the privacy and cookie documentation published by those providers.

8. Relationship to The Star Entertainment Group Privacy Policy

Cookie-related data practices on the Treasury Casino website form part of the broader data governance framework maintained by The Star Entertainment Group. The group’s Privacy Policy, available at star.com.au/privacy-policy, provides additional detail on how personal information is collected, stored, used, and disclosed across the group’s operations, including its digital channels. This Cookie Policy does not replace or supersede the group Privacy Policy and should be read in conjunction with it.

9. Updates to This Policy

Treasury Casino reserves the right to update this Cookie Policy at any time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or operational practices. Any material changes will be reflected on the relevant website page. Users are encouraged to review this document periodically. Continued use of the website following any update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
