Cookie Policy for fallsview-casino.ca (Canada)
This Cookie Policy describes how cookies and similar technologies are used on fallsview-casino.ca (the “Website”) for visitors and users located in Canada. It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, how they interact with your personal information, and how you can control them. By accessing or using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy and agree to the storing and accessing of cookies and similar technologies on your device as described here, subject to your preferences and applicable law. This Policy complements our privacy practices and forms part of the contractual terms that govern your use of the Website.
The Website is intended for individuals who have reached the age of majority in their province or territory of residence. If you are not of legal age, do not use the Website. We may update this Policy from time to time to reflect technological, legal, or business changes. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify you, which may include posting a prominent notice on the Website or updating the “Last Updated” date. Your continued use of the Website after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy. If you do not agree, you should update your preferences and discontinue use of the Website.
What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function, to improve performance, to remember preferences, and to provide insights into how services are used. We also use similar technologies such as local storage, web beacons (also known as pixels or clear GIFs), software development kits (SDKs) in mobile contexts, and device identifiers that operate in ways comparable to cookies. Cookies can be first-party (set by the Website you are visiting) or third-party (set by a different domain), and can be session (expire when you close your browser) or persistent (remain until they expire or are deleted). Cookies do not run programs or deliver viruses; they store and retrieve information from your device’s browser to help recognize it over time.
Depending on your settings and the features you use, the information collected via cookies may include device and browser details, unique identifiers, approximate location derived from IP address, language settings, referring/exit pages, on-site interactions, time stamps, advertising identifiers, and similar technical data. We do not seek to collect sensitive personal information through cookies, and we instruct our service providers to handle cookie data in accordance with applicable Canadian privacy laws. Your consent preferences determine which non-essential cookies will be active when you visit or interact with the Website.
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required to operate core Website functions, maintain session integrity, manage security, load pages, enforce age or jurisdictional gates, and deliver content you request. These cannot be switched off via our consent tools because the Website cannot function properly without them.
- Performance and Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how the Website is used so that we can measure and improve performance. They generate aggregate statistics about page views, navigation paths, feature usage, errors, and loading times, allowing us to troubleshoot issues and enhance usability.
- Functionality and Preference Cookies: Remember your choices, such as language, region, accessibility options, saved preferences, and whether you have dismissed notices. They create a more personalized, consistent experience across visits.
- Advertising and Personalization Cookies: Support delivery of relevant content and promotions on our Website and, where permitted, on other digital properties. They may record visits, interactions, and inferred interests to help cap the frequency of promotions and to measure their effectiveness.
- Security and Fraud Prevention Cookies: Assist in detecting and preventing fraudulent activity, abuse, and unauthorized access, and in protecting the integrity of transactions and accounts.
- Social Interaction and Embedded Content Cookies: Enable optional features such as content sharing tools or embedded media. If you engage with such features, cookies may record that interaction as permitted by your consent choices.
Cookies do not give us access to your device beyond the data they store and retrieve. You can manage non-essential cookies through our consent tools and your browser settings. Persistent cookies last for a defined period that varies by purpose; unless you delete them sooner, most non-essential cookies expire within a timeframe that is appropriate to their function. We retain aggregated analytics reports for longer where needed for legitimate business and compliance reasons.
How We Use Cookies on fallsview-casino.ca
We use cookies to operate the Website, maintain security, prevent fraud, remember your preferences, enable load balancing, measure and improve performance, personalize certain content, and understand how visitors engage with pages and features. For example, cookies help us maintain a secure session, verify that you meet geographic or age criteria where applicable, remember whether you have consented to non-essential cookies, and ensure the Website behaves consistently across devices and visits.
Where permitted by your choices, we work with service providers that place or read cookies to provide analytics, advertising measurement, testing and optimization, audience insights, and reporting. These providers process data on our behalf and under our instructions. We restrict the use and disclosure of such data to what is necessary to provide the services requested, and we require reasonable safeguards consistent with Canadian privacy requirements. We do not knowingly allow providers to identify you by name through cookies unless you have provided that information directly to us and consented to its use for a specific feature.
We keep cookie-derived data only as long as needed for the purposes described. Cookie lifespans vary by category, and aggregated analytics may be retained for trend analysis and compliance. While cookies help tailor your experience, you can limit or withdraw consent for non-essential categories at any time via our consent tools. We will respect your updated preferences going forward, although this will not retroactively affect processing already performed with your prior consent.
Your Choices: Managing Cookies
When you first visit the Website, you may see a consent banner or preference centre allowing you to manage non-essential cookie categories. You can change your selections at any time via the same interface where available, or by adjusting your browser and device settings to block, delete, or notify you about cookies. Some browsers also provide signals that communicate your privacy preferences. Where we can reasonably detect a valid, recognized signal, we will endeavour to honour it for the relevant cookie categories under Canadian law and this Policy.
- Use your browser’s settings to block or delete cookies, set notifications before storage, or clear stored data, including local storage and cached content.
- Consider private or restricted browsing modes to limit the persistence of cookies and other local data across sessions.
- Manage device-level identifiers and advertising settings on your device’s operating system to limit interest-based personalization.
- Adjust preferences in our on-site consent tools to enable or disable categories such as analytics, personalization, and advertising.
- Control email-related tracking by disabling automatic image loading in your email client or by unsubscribing from promotional emails using the footer link in such messages.
If you disable or block certain cookies, parts of the Website may not function as intended, and your overall experience may be reduced. Essential cookies are required for basic operations and cannot be turned off through our tools. Your choices are generally device- and browser-specific; if you use multiple devices or browsers, you will need to set preferences on each one.
Data Sharing, Transfers, Security, and Your Rights in Canada
We may share cookie-related data with service providers that support Website functionality, analytics, security, personalization, and measurement; with our affiliates for internal business purposes; with authorities where legally required; and in connection with a business transaction such as a merger or asset transfer. Because many providers operate internationally, your information may be processed outside your province or outside Canada, where different laws may apply. We take steps to ensure a comparable level of protection, including contractual safeguards and assessments of a provider’s privacy and security practices. We use administrative, technical, and physical measures designed to protect data; however, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Website and its cookies are provided “as is” and “as available,” and we disclaim all warranties of any kind, express or implied. We will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from or related to the use of cookies or the inability to use the Website, except as prohibited by law.
Under applicable Canadian privacy laws, you may have rights to access and correct personal information, withdraw consent to non-essential processing, and challenge our compliance. You may contact us at [email protected] to exercise these rights or to ask questions about our cookie practices. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the appropriate federal or provincial privacy regulator. This Policy is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflicts of law. Any disputes arising from or relating to this Policy will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario. If any provision is found invalid, the remainder remains in full force. This Policy is provided for informational purposes and does not constitute legal advice. Last Updated: 2025-12-17. For all inquiries, please contact [email protected].
