These files store information about your browsing activity and preferences, allowing websites to remember you when you return. At PawnBet, we use cookies to provide you with a secure, personalized gaming experience and to improve our services.
Cookies contain data such as your login status, language preferences, and game settings. They cannot access other files on your device or install malware. Most cookies are harmless and essential for modern website functionality, though some collect information for marketing purposes.

Essential Cookies

These cookies enable core features such as account login, secure transactions, and access to restricted areas of our platform. Without essential cookies, you would not be able to place bets, make deposits, or access your account history.
Essential cookies also support our security systems by detecting suspicious login attempts and preventing unauthorized access to player accounts. They store temporary session data and ensure that sensitive information remains encrypted during transmission.

We use analytics data to monitor server performance, detect technical issues, and measure the effectiveness of new features. These cookies do not collect personally identifiable information and are aggregated to show general usage trends rather than individual player behavior.

How Long Cookies Last
Cookies have different lifespans depending on their purpose. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period. Essential cookies typically last for the duration of your session, while preference cookies may persist for up to one year.
Analytics and marketing cookies generally expire after 30 days to two years, depending on their specific function. We regularly review cookie retention periods to ensure we only store data for as long as necessary to fulfill their intended purpose.
Managing and Disabling Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings or our cookie preference center. Most browsers allow you to block all cookies, accept only certain types, or delete existing cookies. However, disabling essential cookies will prevent you from accessing key features of PawnBet.
To manage cookies in your browser, access the privacy or security settings menu. You can also use private browsing mode to prevent new cookies from being stored. Remember that deleting cookies will reset your preferences and may require you to log in again.
Do Not Track
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature that sends signals to websites requesting not to track user activity. Currently, there is no universal standard for how websites should respond to these signals. PawnBet does not alter its cookie behavior based on Do Not Track requests, but you can still control cookies through your browser settings.
