At Cobber Casino, we take your privacy seriously. This page sets out the Cobber Casino privacy policy in full — explaining how we collect, use, store, and protect the personal data of every player who visits cobbercasinos.com.

5. Cookie Policy
The Cobber Casino cookie policy describes how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies on cobbercasinos.com. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us recognise you, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with our site. Our use of cookies falls into four main categories:
5.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the site to function. They enable you to log in, navigate between pages, and complete transactions. Without them, the services you have requested — such as account access or game loading — cannot be delivered. Essential cookies do not require your consent under applicable law.
5.2 Analytical Cookies
Analytical cookies (for example, those set by Google Analytics or similar tools) allow us to understand how visitors use cobbercasinos.com — which pages are most visited, how long sessions last, and where users encounter difficulties. This data collection helps us continually improve the platform. These cookies are activated only with your consent.
5.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, currency, or game category) and provide a more personalised experience. They may also remember information you have entered into forms. Your consent is required for functional cookies that are not strictly necessary.
5.4 Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies track your browsing activity across websites to deliver targeted advertising relevant to your interests. Cobber Casino and our advertising partners may use these cookies to display promotions that are more likely to appeal to you. You can withdraw your consent to marketing cookies at any time via our cookie preference centre.
You can manage or withdraw consent for non-essential cookies at any time by adjusting your browser settings or using the cookie preference tool available on our site. Please be aware that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of cobbercasinos.com.
6. Sharing Personal Data with Third Parties
Cobber Casino personal data is shared with third parties only where necessary and always under appropriate safeguards. We do not sell your personal information to any party for their own commercial purposes.
6.1 Payment Providers
To process deposits and withdrawals via PayID, Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Neosurf, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and bank transfers, we share the minimum necessary financial personal data with our payment service providers. These partners are contractually bound to maintain strict data security and confidentiality.
6.2 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Authorities
We may be required to disclose personal information to government authorities, regulatory bodies, or law enforcement agencies where mandated by law — for example, in connection with AML reporting obligations or court orders. Such disclosures are made only to the extent required and are logged for audit purposes.
6.3 Identity Verification Partners
Our KYC process relies on third-party identity verification services that cross-check the documents you provide against authoritative databases. These partners operate under binding data protection agreements and are prohibited from using your data for any other purpose.
6.4 Technology and Analytics Partners
We engage carefully selected technology vendors — including game providers such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Play'n GO, NetEnt, Microgaming, Yggdrasil, Hacksaw Gaming, Push Gaming, Spribe, Red Tiger, Nolimit City, and Relax Gaming — as well as analytics platforms that support our operational and analytical activities. All such partners receive only the user data they require to perform their specific function.
6.5 Marketing Partners
Where you have consented to receive marketing communications, we may share limited personal information (such as your email address) with trusted marketing partners. You retain the right to withdraw this consent at any time.
7. International Data Transfers
Because Cobber Casino is operated from Curaçao and works with an international network of service providers, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside Australia. When such transfers occur, we implement appropriate safeguards to ensure that your data protection rights are maintained at a standard equivalent to Australian law. These safeguards may include:
- Standard contractual clauses approved by relevant regulatory authorities
- Data processing agreements imposing equivalent information security obligations on recipients
- Transfers to countries with adequacy determinations where available
If you would like more information about the specific safeguards applied to international transfers of your personal information, please contact our DPO at [email protected].
8. Data Security
Cobber Casino data security is built on multiple layers of technical and organisational protection designed to guard your personal information against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse.
8.1 Encryption
All data transmitted between your device and our servers is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption — the same standard used by major financial institutions. This ensures that your personal data, financial details, and gaming activity cannot be intercepted in transit.
8.2 Firewall and Network Security
Our infrastructure is protected by enterprise-grade firewalls and intrusion detection systems that continuously monitor for suspicious activity. Regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments are conducted by independent security specialists to reinforce our information security posture.
8.3 Access Controls
Access to personal data within Cobber Casino is restricted on a need-to-know basis. All staff with access to user data undergo mandatory data protection training and are bound by strict confidentiality obligations.
8.4 Certified RNG
Our Random Number Generator (RNG) systems are certified by independent laboratories, ensuring the integrity of game outcomes and the trustworthiness of our gaming environment.
Despite our robust data security measures, no online system can guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you and the relevant supervisory authority in accordance with our legal obligations.
9. Data Retention
Cobber Casino data storage practices are governed by the principle of data minimisation — we retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law.
| Category of Data | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Account and identity data | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | AML/KYC legal obligations |
| Financial transaction records | 7 years from transaction date | Tax and regulatory requirements |
| Gaming activity logs | 5 years from last activity | Fraud prevention and dispute resolution |
| Marketing consent records | Until withdrawal of consent + 3 years | Evidence of consent and legal defence |
| Customer support records | 3 years from resolution date | Quality assurance and dispute handling |
| Cookie and analytics data | Up to 26 months | Platform improvement and analytics |
Once your personal data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our data storage procedures. Anonymised data may be retained indefinitely for statistical purposes.
10. Your Privacy Rights

In certain circumstances — for example, if you contest the accuracy of your data or object to its processing — you may request that we restrict the data processing we conduct on your personal information while the matter is resolved.

You may object at any time to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes. You also have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests, on grounds relating to your particular situation.
10.7 Right to Withdraw Consent
Where Cobber Casino processes your personal data on the basis of your consent (for example, for marketing communications or non-essential cookies), you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
