Cookies Policy for BC Game

This Cookies Policy explains how BC Game and its service partners use cookies and similar browser storage technologies to support site functionality, session handling, analytics, preferences, security, and device recognition. The goal is practical clarity about what these technologies do and how they affect your browsing on the site.

What cookies are

Cookies are small pieces of data stored by your browser when you visit a website. They record information such as a session identifier, site preferences, or technical flags. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and IndexedDB, which store data on your device for specific features or performance reasons.

Why cookies are used

Cookies and related storage help the site remember your choices, keep you logged in, maintain game sessions, and measure performance. They make the service faster and more reliable by avoiding repeated requests for the same information and by helping diagnose technical issues.

Essential cookies

Essential cookies are required for basic site operation. They enable core functions such as account authentication, secure access to your account areas, and navigation between pages without losing your session. Disabling these will prevent key functionality from working.

Session cookies

Session cookies last for the duration of your browsing session and are deleted when you close your browser. They typically hold temporary data like session identifiers that link your actions on the site until you log out or the session ends.

Persistent cookies

Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser until they expire or are removed. These are commonly used to remember login status, language settings, and other user preferences so you do not have to re-enter them on each visit.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies store choices you make on the site, for example preferred display settings, selected currency or language, and audio preferences in media. They improve usability by preserving those choices across visits.

Analytics and performance cookies

Analytics cookies collect aggregated information about how the site is used, such as pages visited, error rates, and load times. This data is non-identifying in normal operation and is used to improve site stability, speed, and layout. Aggregated analytics helps prioritise fixes and optimisation work without tying metrics to individual users.

Preference and language settings

Preference cookies remember choices like language selection, display options, and whether promotional banners were dismissed. These cookies make the site adapt to your preferred settings so you do not need to reconfigure each visit.

Login and session continuity

Cookies support login persistence and session continuity so you can move between pages, play games, or use account services without repeated authentication. They also help detect unusual session activity and prompt for re-authentication when appropriate.

Device recognition

Device recognition cookies help identify devices you regularly use to access the site. This can reduce repeated security checks on trusted devices and assist with fraud prevention by flagging unusual combinations of device and account behaviour.

Security-related cookies

Security cookies assist in protecting accounts and the site by detecting suspicious patterns, preventing session hijacking, and supporting basic anti-fraud checks. They are technical in nature and do not store full personal profiles.

Browser storage technologies

Aside from cookies, the site may use localStorage, sessionStorage, and other browser storage for temporary data or feature state. sessionStorage holds data only during a tab session, while localStorage can retain data between visits until it is cleared. These technologies are used where client-side storage improves responsiveness and feature behaviour.

Third-party integrations

Some services on the site come from third parties such as analytics platforms, payment processors, game providers, and live chat tools. Those services may set their own cookies. BC Game does not control third-party cookie policies, so check the privacy materials provided by those third parties for details.

Marketing and communication preferences

When you opt in to receive promotions or personalised offers, cookies may be used to remember those choices and to manage the presentation of marketing content. You can change these preferences at any time through your account settings or the cookie controls on the site.

Cookie consent management

The site provides a cookie consent interface so you can accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your consent choices are recorded and used to avoid showing the banner repeatedly. Consent settings can be adjusted later through the cookie settings link on the site.

Browser cookie controls

Your browser offers controls to view, block, or delete cookies. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to notify you when a cookie is placed. Changes made in the browser will affect all sites, not just BC Game. If you change cookie settings, you may need to refresh the site for changes to take effect.

Clearing or disabling cookies

You may clear cookies and browser storage at any time using your browser settings. Clearing data will remove saved preferences and require you to re-enter login details. If you disable cookies entirely, some functionality such as login, saved preferences, and game continuity may be impacted.

Site functionality impact when cookies are disabled

Disabling essential cookies or blocking storage can prevent logging in, playing games, accessing promotions, or maintaining cart and payment sessions. Some interactive features and personalised settings will not be available, and the site may prompt for repeated authentication.

Technical diagnostics and performance optimisation

Technical cookies help diagnose errors and collect performance metrics such as load times and resource failures. This information enables quicker troubleshooting and targeted improvements to reduce interruptions and downtime for all users.

Aggregated analytics information

Aggregated analytics are used to track general trends and to measure feature usage. This data is processed at scale to avoid identification of individual users and to inform product decisions like layout changes and new feature rollouts.

User experience improvements

Cookies support ongoing improvements to the user experience by remembering interaction patterns, reducing friction for repeated tasks, and enabling A/B testing to compare safer, well-scoped layout or feature changes. The intention is practical: smoother navigation, fewer repeated steps, and faster access to content you use most.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in technology or site behaviour. When material changes occur, the site will surface updated information through the cookie banner or site notices so you can review and adjust your settings.
