A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your phone, tablet or computer. It lets us recognise your browser from one page to the next. Some cookies disappear when you close the tab. Others stay for days or months. We also use close relatives such as local storage and pixel tags, and when we say "cookies" below we mean all of them.
Why does a casino need them at all? Because an online account without them would barely function. You could not stay logged in, keep a balance visible or carry a deposit through to completion. This page is operated by Metlait SRL under the Asino brand, and it explains exactly what we set and when. Read it alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers how personal data collected through cookies is handled.
Third parties that set cookies on our behalf
Some cookies come from outside companies rather than from us directly. Game studios whose titles run on our lobby, such as Pragmatic Play or Hacksaw Gaming, may set technical cookies so their games load and save a session correctly. Analytics and advertising partners may place their own identifiers if you have allowed those categories.
We do not control the cookies those companies set once they are on your device, so check their own notices if you want the detail. We only work with partners whose use fits the purposes listed above.
Cookies and playing safely
Cookies keep your session secure, but they are no substitute for good habits. Always log out on shared devices. Gambling is for adults aged 18 and over, and it should stay within your budget. If play stops feeling like fun, Gambling Help Online offers free, confidential support on 1800 858 858, or visit gamblinghelponline.org.au. Our Responsible Gambling page lists the tools available on your account.
We may update this policy when our technology or the law changes. The current version always sits on this page.
The four categories we use
We group everything we place on your device into four buckets. The table shows what each one does and roughly how long it lives.
Category
Purpose
Typical duration
Strictly necessary
Login sessions, account security, fraud prevention, load balancing, remembering your cookie choice, keeping deposits and bonus codes working through checkout
Session only, up to 12 months for the consent record
Functional
Saves your language, preferred display settings, recently played games and layout choices
Up to 12 months
Analytics
Counts visits, shows which pages and games are used, helps us spot errors and slow screens. Data is aggregated
Up to 24 months
Marketing
Measures whether our promotions reach people, limits how often you see the same offer, supports campaign attribution
Up to 12 months
Strictly necessary cookies are always on. The other three only run if you agree.
Your consent and how to change your mind
When you first arrive, a banner asks what you are happy with. Accept all, reject the optional groups, or pick category by category. Nothing outside the strictly necessary set is placed before you choose.
Changed your mind? You can reopen the cookie settings from the link in the site footer at any point and switch categories on or off. Withdrawing consent is as simple as giving it. It does not affect anything we did lawfully while consent was active, and it will not stop you playing or depositing from A$20.
One practical note: if you refuse functional cookies, the site still works, but you may need to reselect your preferences each visit.
Managing cookies in your browser
Every major browser lets you view, block or delete cookies. Look under Settings, then Privacy or Security, in Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge. You can block all cookies, block only third-party ones, or clear everything when you close the browser.
Be aware of the trade-off. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will break logging in and cashier pages, because the site cannot tell your requests apart. Mobile apps and private browsing modes handle storage differently, and clearing data on one device does not touch another. If you use several devices, repeat your choices on each.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to accept cookies to use Asino?
No. Strictly necessary cookies are required for the site to work, but analytics, functional and marketing cookies are optional and only run if you allow them.
How do I withdraw my cookie consent?
Open the cookie settings link in the footer and switch off the categories you no longer want. You can also delete cookies through your browser settings.
Do cookies store my card or banking details?
No. We do not keep full payment card numbers in cookies. Cookies hold identifiers and settings, while payment data is handled by the cashier systems.
Will refusing marketing cookies stop me seeing ads?
You may still see advertising elsewhere online, but it will not be tailored using our marketing cookies, and we will not measure campaign results through you.
