Cookie policy — galactic-wins-casino.ca

Every cookie we set or allow, what it does, how long it lasts, and how to turn it off.

Last updated: May 2026.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They keep state between page loads — remembering you have dismissed a banner, recording a pageview for analytics, or passing a click ID to an affiliate network.

2. Cookies we use

Essential cookies (always on)

  • gw_consent — records that you have seen the cookie banner. 12 months.
  • gw_sticky — records that you have closed the sticky bonus banner. 7 days.

These are first-party cookies set by galactic-wins-casino.ca and cannot be disabled without breaking site behaviour.

Analytics cookies (opt-in)

  • _ga, _ga_* — Google Analytics 4. Used to count unique visitors and measure page performance. IP addresses are anonymised. 14 months.

Turn off analytics by declining the cookie banner, using a browser-level Do Not Track signal, or installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Affiliate cookies (set by third parties on click)

  • Affiliate-network click IDs — set when you click an outbound CTA to Galactic Wins. Used by the affiliate network to attribute account openings. Lifetime varies by network, typically 30–90 days.

These cookies are set by the destination site after you leave galactic-wins-casino.ca. We do not have direct control over them. Browser-level cookie blocking removes them.

3. Opting out

Three layers of control:

  • Cookie banner. The banner on your first visit let us you accept or decline non-essential cookies. Decisions are remembered for 12 months.
  • Browser settings. All major browsers let you block third-party cookies, clear cookies on close, or use private browsing — which discards them at the end of the session.
  • Do Not Track. If your browser sends a DNT header, we treat it as a "decline" on analytics.

4. PIPEDA and consent

Under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, we need your consent to set non-essential cookies. The banner is your consent mechanism. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing the gw_consent cookie and re-visiting the site.

5. Changes

If we add a new cookie or change how an existing one works, this page is updated and the "Last updated" date at the top changes accordingly.
