What This Cookie Policy Covers
Topless Casino operates the website topless-casino-nz.com from its registered address at Level 4, 6 Gilmer Terrace, Wellington 6011, New Zealand. When you visit this site, small text files called cookies are placed on your device. This policy explains what those files are, why we use them, who else may place them on your device through our platform, and what options you have when it comes to controlling them.
Reading this policy takes a few minutes and gives you a clear picture of how your browsing data is handled. If you have questions after reading it, our support team is available around the clock at support@topless-casino-nz.com or by calling +64 4 893 6077.
What Cookies Actually Are
A cookie is a small data file that a website stores on your browser or device when you visit. It sits there quietly and sends information back to the site on your next visit, or sometimes during your current session. Cookies are not programmes and cannot run code on your device. They cannot carry viruses or access files stored elsewhere on your computer or phone.
Beyond standard cookies, we also use related technologies that work in similar ways. These include web beacons (tiny transparent images embedded in pages or emails that register whether you loaded a page), pixel tags, and local storage objects. For the purposes of this policy, we refer to all of these collectively as cookies unless we need to distinguish between them for a specific reason.
Categories of Cookies Used on Topless Casino
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function. Without them, you would not be able to log in to your account, access the cashier, or play any games. They manage session authentication, keep you signed in as you navigate between pages, and enforce security measures that protect your account from unauthorised access. Because these cookies are essential to the operation of the platform, they cannot be disabled through our cookie settings. Refusing them through your browser settings will result in the site not working correctly.
Examples of what strictly necessary cookies handle on topless-casino-nz.com include:
- Maintaining your login session so you are not signed out mid-game
- Remembering which currency you selected (NZD) during registration
- Carrying your account state between pages during deposit and withdrawal flows
- Enforcing geographic access checks tied to our licence conditions
- Preventing cross-site request forgery attacks on form submissions
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies store your preferences so the site behaves the way you expect it to on return visits. They remember things like your preferred language settings, whether you have dismissed the cookie consent banner, your preferred game display settings, and other choices you have made during previous sessions. These cookies improve your experience without tracking your activity for marketing purposes.
If you block functional cookies, the site will still load and you can still play, but you may find that your saved preferences are gone each time you return and that certain personalisation features do not work as expected.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies collect aggregated, anonymised data about how visitors use the site. We use this information to understand which pages load slowly, where players tend to drop off during the registration process, which game categories attract the most traffic, and how the platform performs across different devices and connection types. None of this data is tied to your identity.
Performance data helps us make practical improvements to the platform. If our analytics show that a particular payment step is causing confusion on mobile devices, for example, we use that signal to fix it. The same applies to game loading speeds, navigation layouts, and the cashier flow. Third-party analytics tools involved in this are listed in the third-party section below.
Targeting and Advertising Cookies
Topless Casino does not display third-party advertising on its platform. However, some of our marketing partners use cookies to measure the effectiveness of campaigns that bring new players to the site. These cookies record information such as whether a player arrived via a particular referral source and whether they completed a registration after clicking a promotion. The data is used to evaluate marketing performance, not to build advertising profiles for sale to other companies.
Where targeting cookies operate on this site, they are placed by our verified partners and operate under their own privacy policies. You will be given the option to decline these cookies when you first arrive on the site, and you can change your preference at any time through the cookie settings panel.
Responsible Gambling Cookies
This category is specific to licensed gambling platforms. Topless Casino is required under its licence (number 8048/JAZ2021-017) to maintain tools that support responsible play. Certain cookies assist with this obligation directly. They track session duration in real time so that time-reminder alerts trigger correctly, store your active deposit limit settings so the system enforces them across sessions, and record whether you have a cooling-off period or self-exclusion status active on your account.
These cookies exist to protect you. They are classified as strictly necessary from an operational standpoint and cannot be switched off while your account has active responsible gambling settings in place. If you close your browser mid-session, these cookies ensure your limits are still applied when you return.
How Long Cookies Stay on Your Device
Cookies fall into two categories based on how long they remain on your device:
- Session cookies are temporary. They are created when you open your browser and deleted automatically when you close it. Most of the cookies that manage your active login and gameplay session are session cookies.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device for a fixed period after your session ends, or until you delete them manually. These are used for preference storage, analytics, and returning visitor recognition. Persistent cookies on topless-casino-nz.com are set with expiry periods ranging from 30 days to 24 months depending on their purpose.
Third-Party Cookies on Our Platform
Some cookies on topless-casino-nz.com are set by third-party services that our platform uses. We do not control how those third parties collect or use data, but we only work with providers whose data practices meet reasonable standards. The main categories of third-party cookies you may encounter are:
Game Providers
When you load a game from a studio like Evolution, Play’n Go, PG Soft, BGaming, Evoplay, or any of the other providers in our catalogue, the game content is delivered through that studio’s systems. Game providers may set their own session cookies to manage game state, RNG integrity checks, and player session tracking within their software. These cookies operate within the game window and do not have access to your broader account data on our platform.
Analytics Services
We use third-party analytics tools to process performance data collected from the site. These tools operate under data processing agreements with us and are not permitted to use the data they collect on our behalf for their own advertising purposes.
Payment Processors
When you make a deposit or withdrawal using Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Bitcoin, Ethereum, or USDT, the relevant payment processor may set cookies during the transaction. These cookies are necessary for the payment flow to complete securely and are governed by the privacy policies of the respective payment providers.
Responsible Gambling Partners
Topless Casino is affiliated with GamblingTherapy.org and BeGambleAware.org. Links to these organisations appear in the footer and responsible gambling section of the site. If you click through to these external sites, their own cookie and privacy policies apply.
Cookies and New Zealand Privacy Law
The Privacy Act 2020 governs how personal information is collected, held, used, and disclosed in New Zealand. Where cookie data constitutes personal information under the Act (for example, where it is linked to an identifiable account holder), Topless Casino handles it in accordance with the Privacy Principles set out in that legislation.
This means we collect cookie-related data only for purposes that are directly connected to operating the platform and improving your experience on it. We do not use that data in ways that you would not reasonably expect, and we do not share it with parties who have no legitimate need for it. You have the right to request access to personal information we hold about you, and to ask us to correct any information that is inaccurate. Requests can be directed to support@topless-casino-nz.com.
Under the Gambling Act 2003 and the conditions attached to our operating licence, we are also required to retain certain records related to player activity. Some of this data intersects with information generated through cookies, particularly in the context of responsible gambling monitoring and account session logs. Where retention is a legal requirement, it takes precedence over any preference you express to delete data.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Through Our Cookie Consent Tool
When you first visit topless-casino-nz.com, a consent banner allows you to accept all cookies, decline non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences by category. You can revisit these settings at any time. Look for the cookie preferences link in the footer of any page on the site. Changes to your settings take effect immediately and apply to future visits.
Through Your Browser Settings
Every major browser includes built-in controls for managing cookies. You can instruct your browser to block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, delete existing cookies, or alert you before a new cookie is stored. The specific steps vary by browser:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Cookies and site data
Bear in mind that blocking all cookies through your browser will prevent you from logging in to your Topless Casino account. Strictly necessary cookies must be permitted for the platform to work. If you only want to limit non-essential tracking, use our on-site preferences tool rather than a blanket browser block, as it lets you make more precise choices without breaking site functionality.
On Your Mobile Device
Both the iOS App Store version and the Android Google Play version of the Topless Casino app use a separate technical environment from the browser-based site. Cookie settings you apply in your phone’s browser do not affect the app, and vice versa. Within the app, data handling preferences are managed through the in-app settings rather than browser cookie controls.
Opting Out of Analytics
If you want to stop your browsing behaviour on our site contributing to analytics data while continuing to use the platform normally, you can opt out through our cookie preferences panel by deselecting the analytics category. This will not affect your ability to play games, process payments, or access any other feature of the site.
Age Verification and Cookies
Topless Casino is strictly for players aged 18 and over. Cookies play a role in maintaining the integrity of our age verification process. Once you have completed identity verification, a cookie records this status so you are not repeatedly asked to verify on return visits. This cookie is classified as strictly necessary and cannot be removed without logging out of your account entirely.
If our systems detect that a device has previously been used by a player who failed age verification, access from that device may be restricted regardless of which browser or account is used. This is a safeguard, not a penalty, and is consistent with responsible gambling obligations under our licence.
Changes to This Policy
We review and update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or the way we operate the platform. If we make a material change, registered players will be notified by email to the address held on their account. Continued use of topless-casino-nz.com after a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
We recommend checking this page periodically if you want to stay informed about how we use cookies. The current version always replaces any earlier version, and earlier versions are not retained on the site.
