1. What Are Cookies?

This Cookie Policy explains how VanguardBet Systems ("we", "us", and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at vanguardbet.com.au and use our B2B iGaming platform. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by online service providers in order to (for example) make their websites or services work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, VanguardBet Systems) are called "first-party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies". Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., like interactive content and analytics).

2. Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our B2B platform and website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our B2B operators to enhance the experience on our properties. Third parties serve cookies through our website for analytics and performance management.
