Cookie Policy at Mzansi Casino
This page explains every cookie we set when you visit mzansi-aud.com, why we set it, how long it stays on your device, and how you can switch off the ones you do not want. No legal jargon, just the facts. Since we launched in 2024 we have kept this list short on purpose: if a cookie does not have a job, we do not set it.
What Cookies Actually Are
A cookie is a small text file that our website places on your device when you open it. Your browser stores it and sends it back to us on your next visit, which is how the site remembers who you are and what you were doing.
Think of it like a cloakroom ticket. The first time you arrive we hand you a ticket; when you come back, the ticket tells us this is the same session, your language is English, and you were halfway through a game of Money Train 4. Without that ticket we would have to ask you everything again on every single page load.
The Four Cookie Types We Use
Strictly necessary
These keep the site working. They log you in after you enter your credentials, keep your session alive while you move between the lobby, the sportsbook and the cashier, and protect your account with anti-fraud checks. Your browser must accept them for mzansi-aud.com to function, and we never use them for advertising.
Functional
These remember your choices: the language you picked, the odds format you prefer, whether you collapsed the lobby filters, and your last payment method at the cashier. They make your next visit faster but the site still works if you refuse them, you just re-enter those preferences each time.
Analytics
These show us, in aggregate, how visitors move through the site: which pages load slowly, where people abandon a deposit, which game categories get the most play. We look at patterns across thousands of sessions, not at your individual bets or your identity, and we use the results to fix problems and improve layout.
Marketing
These cookies let us show you relevant offers on other websites after you leave ours, for example a reminder that your 50% welcome bonus up to 80,000 AUD with 100 free spins is still unused. If you opt out, you still get every bonus you are entitled to on the site itself, we simply stop following you around the wider internet.

Cookies Others Place Here
Some cookies on our pages are not ours. We allow three categories of third-party cookies, each with a defined job, and each covered by that provider's own privacy terms as well as ours.
Analytics providers measure site speed and usage patterns for us. Payment providers set cookies inside the cashier so your deposit through Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, MiFinity or a crypto gateway completes securely; these exist only for the duration of the transaction and its dispute window. Ad networks serve the retargeting ads described above and only after you have consented in our banner.
We do not permit third parties to place cookies for any purpose outside those three categories. If a provider changes what its cookies do, we reassess whether it stays on the site.
How You Take Back Control
On our site
When you first arrive, our cookie banner lets you accept everything or open granular settings where you tick or untick functional, analytics and marketing cookies separately. Strictly necessary cookies have no switch because the site cannot operate without them. You can reopen those settings any time from the "Cookie preferences" link in the site footer and change your mind as often as you like.
In your browser
Every major browser can block or delete cookies without our help:
- Chrome: Settings, Privacy and security, Third-party cookies, then Block all or clear existing ones.
- Safari: Preferences, Privacy, Manage Website Data to remove our cookies, or tick Prevent Cross-Site Tracking.
- Firefox: Settings, Privacy and Security, set Enhanced Tracking Protection to Strict.
- Edge: Settings, Cookies and site permissions, Block or manage per site.
What blocking costs you
If you block strictly necessary cookies, login, the cashier and game sessions will fail, so we advise against that one. Blocking functional cookies means re-selecting your language and preferences each visit. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies has no effect on gameplay, deposits or your welcome bonus, you simply see fewer tailored offers off-site.
How Long We Keep Them
Every cookie we set has an expiry, and nothing lives on your device forever. Session cookies vanish the moment you close your browser. Persistent cookies follow the schedule below, after which your device deletes them automatically even if you never visit us again.
Strictly necessary cookies last from the session itself up to 30 days, the longer window keeping a "remember me" login alive. Functional cookies persist for 90 days. Analytics cookies run up to 365 days because traffic trends need a full year to compare. Marketing cookies cap at 90 days, and we think even that is plenty for a bonus reminder. Logging out clears your session cookies immediately, and deleting cookies manually at any point removes everything at once.
When Mzansi Casino Updates This Page
We review this policy whenever we add, remove or change a cookie, and at least once a year regardless. Material changes, such as a new third-party category or a longer retention period, get announced on-site before they take effect, and the revised version goes live at the same link you are reading now so your bookmarks keep working.
If you have questions about a specific cookie, our live chat runs 24/7 and we answer email at [email protected], typically within one business day. This page was last reviewed in 2026.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to accept cookies to play at Mzansi Casino?
You have to accept strictly necessary cookies, because login, the cashier and game sessions cannot work without them. Functional, analytics and marketing cookies are optional and you can refuse all three in the banner settings.
Will refusing marketing cookies cost me my welcome bonus?
No. The 50% welcome bonus up to 80,000 AUD, 100 free spins and every other promotion stays available on the site. Refusing marketing cookies only stops tailored ads following you on other websites.
Do cookies store my card details or my bets?
No. Cookies never hold full card numbers or your betting history. Payment providers use short-lived transaction cookies for security, and your account data lives on our servers, not in the cookie files on your device.
If I delete cookies, am I logged out everywhere?
Yes, deleting our cookies logs you out of mzansi-aud.com on that device and resets your stored preferences. Use the "remember me" option at login if you want to stay signed in for up to 30 days on a trusted device.
