About This Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Mega Riches Casino uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the official UK website at https://mega-riches-uk-casino.com/. It describes what these technologies do, the information they may collect and the choices available to users in the United Kingdom.
This policy should be read together with the website’s Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions. The use of cookies is governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003, the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files stored on a computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when a website is opened. They allow the website to recognise a browser, maintain a secure session, remember selected settings and understand how visitors use individual pages.
Similar technologies may include local storage, pixels, tags, software development kits and device identifiers. References to cookies in this policy include these technologies where they perform a comparable function.

- support registration, sign-in and account functions;
- apply age, location and access controls where required;

Categories of Cookies
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function or to provide a service specifically requested by the user. They may support security, network management, session continuity, account authentication, fraud prevention and storage of cookie choices.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent under UK cookie rules. They cannot normally be disabled through the website’s consent controls, although they may be blocked in browser settings. Blocking them can prevent important parts of the website from working correctly.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember choices such as language, display settings and other preferences. They can make future visits more consistent and reduce the need to select the same options repeatedly. Where these cookies are not strictly necessary, they are used only after consent has been given.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies help Mega Riches Casino understand how visitors reach and use the website. They may record page visits, session duration, navigation patterns, browser type, approximate location, device details and technical errors.
Information from these cookies is used to evaluate website performance and improve navigation, content and accessibility. Non-essential analytics cookies remain inactive unless the user accepts them through the cookie controls.
Advertising and Measurement Cookies
Advertising cookies may be used to measure campaign performance, prevent excessive repetition of promotional content and understand whether a visitor arrived through a particular advertisement or referring website. They may allow participating providers to recognise the same browser on other websites.
These cookies are not activated without consent. Rejecting them does not prevent access to the website, but promotional content may be less relevant and campaign reporting may be less accurate.
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are placed directly by the Mega Riches Casino website. Third-party cookies are placed or accessed by an external service integrated into the website, such as an analytics, security, media or advertising provider.
Third-party providers may process cookie data under their own privacy notices. Mega Riches Casino assesses relevant providers and limits their access according to the service being supplied, applicable contractual safeguards and UK data protection requirements.
Session and Persistent Cookies
- Session cookies remain active only during the current browser session and are generally deleted when the browser is closed.
- Persistent cookies remain on the device for a defined period or until they are deleted manually.
The precise duration depends on the purpose of the cookie and the service that places it. Cookies should not be retained for longer than is reasonably necessary for their stated purpose. Current cookie names, providers, purposes and expiry periods should be displayed through the website’s cookie preference tool where applicable.
Cookie Consent
When a visitor first opens the website, non-essential cookies are disabled unless and until valid consent is provided. The cookie notice allows users to accept optional cookies, reject them or manage individual categories. Continuing to browse without making an affirmative choice is not treated as consent to non-essential cookies.
Consent must be freely given, specific, informed and indicated by a clear action. Optional cookie categories must not be selected automatically. Refusing optional cookies must not prevent access to ordinary website content or services that do not depend on those cookies.
Changing or Withdrawing Consent
Users may change their cookie choices or withdraw consent at any time through the cookie settings available on the website. Withdrawal applies to future use and does not make earlier processing based on valid consent unlawful.
Cookies already stored on a device may also be removed through the browser settings. After cookies are deleted, the website may ask the user to select preferences again.
Managing Cookies Through a Browser
Most browsers allow users to view, delete or block cookies. Controls normally appear under privacy, security or website settings. Users may be able to:
- delete cookies already stored on the device;
- block all cookies or selected cookie categories;
- prevent third-party cookies from being stored;
- receive a notification before a cookie is placed;
- clear website data when the browser is closed.
Browser settings operate separately from the Mega Riches Casino consent tool. Blocking all cookies may affect sign-in, security checks, saved preferences and other essential website functions.
Information Collected Through Cookies
Depending on the cookie and the user’s choices, collected information may include an online identifier, IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referral source, pages viewed, approximate location, interaction data, session information and selected preferences.
Cookie data is not automatically used to identify a person by name. However, an online identifier or IP address may constitute personal data when it can identify or distinguish a user, either alone or when combined with other information. Such data is handled in accordance with applicable UK data protection law.
Cookies Used for Casino Security and Compliance
Certain cookies may support controls relevant to an online casino environment. These can include secure authentication, protection against account takeover, detection of suspicious activity, prevention of duplicate accounts and enforcement of access restrictions.
Where necessary, cookie-related information may also contribute to age verification, identity checks, anti-money laundering controls, responsible gambling measures and compliance with lawful regulatory obligations. Only information relevant to the particular purpose should be processed.
Legal Bases for Processing
Strictly necessary cookies may be used because they are required to deliver a service requested by the user, protect the website or meet a legal obligation. Where information obtained through such cookies is personal data, processing may also rely on legitimate interests or compliance with legal duties, subject to the circumstances.
Consent is the legal basis for storing or accessing information through optional analytics, functional and advertising cookies. Where personal data is subsequently processed using information obtained from those cookies, consent will also be relied upon where required by law.
International Data Transfers
A third-party cookie provider may process information outside the United Kingdom. When personal data is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards must be used as required by UK law. These may include UK adequacy regulations, the International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum to approved contractual clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism.
Data Retention and Security
Cookie information is retained only for the period needed to fulfil its stated purpose, meet legal requirements or resolve security and compliance matters. Retention periods may vary according to the type of cookie and the provider responsible for it.
Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect cookie data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or loss. These measures may include encrypted connections, restricted access, system monitoring and periodic review of third-party services.
Users Under 18
Mega Riches Casino is intended only for persons aged 18 or over. The website does not knowingly use optional cookies to create advertising profiles for children. If information indicates that a visitor is under 18, appropriate steps may be taken to restrict access and remove data where required.
Your Data Protection Rights
Where cookie information constitutes personal data, UK users may have the right to request access, correction or deletion, restrict or object to processing, withdraw consent and request data portability where applicable. Some rights depend on the purpose and legal basis of the processing.
Users may also raise a concern with the Information Commissioner’s Office if they believe their personal data or cookie choices have not been handled lawfully. Contacting Mega Riches Casino first may allow the matter to be reviewed and resolved more quickly.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy may be revised when website technology, cookie providers, regulatory requirements or data-processing practices change. The version published on the official Mega Riches Casino website is the version that applies when the site is used. Where a change materially affects optional cookies, users may be asked to provide consent again.
