Legal Information
Cookie Policy
Effective date: 20 September 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Poker Saloon Clare Valley uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It applies to all visitors of pokersaloonclarevalley.com and describes the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and the choices available to you.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, recognise your browser, and improve your overall experience. Cookies are widely used across the internet and do not typically identify you personally unless they are combined with other data.
Some cookies are session-based and disappear when you close your browser, while others are persistent and remain on your device for a set period. Poker Saloon Clare Valley uses cookies to ensure the website functions correctly, to understand how visitors interact with our content, and to remember your preferences for future visits.
Why We Use Cookies
Our website is designed to give you clear, useful information about our physical poker venue, card lounge, tournaments, and restaurant. Cookies support that goal in three main ways: essential cookies keep the site working, analytics cookies help us improve the information we provide, and preference cookies remember choices such as language or display settings. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles or to track you across unrelated websites.
Types of Cookies We Use
We group the cookies on this website into four categories. Each category serves a different purpose, and the choices available to you depend on the category.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core features such as page navigation, secure access, and remembering your privacy choices. These cookies are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your cookie preferences. Essential cookies cannot be disabled in our systems, and they do not store personally identifiable information.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website, which pages are most popular, and how people move between sections. The data we collect is aggregated and anonymised. This information helps us improve content about poker tournaments, the card lounge, and restaurant offerings. You can opt out of analytics cookies through your browser settings or the tools provided by our analytics service.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred language or region, so we can provide a more personalised experience. They are not essential, but they improve usability. You can disable preference cookies, although some features may not work as intended if you do.
Marketing Cookies
We do not currently use marketing or advertising cookies on our website. No third-party advertising networks are used, and our focus remains on providing information about our physical poker venue. If this changes in the future, we will update this policy and provide clear notice before any marketing cookies are set.
Specific Cookies We Use
The table below lists the cookies we use, their purpose, and how long they remain on your device. Cookie names are illustrative and may vary slightly between visits. Durations are approximate and may change as we update the website. We do not use cookies that track you across other websites.

Instructions vary by browser, so we recommend checking your browser's help pages for the most current guidance.

You can also use browser extensions to manage cookies. Please be aware that disabling essential cookies may affect website functionality, and some pages may not work as intended.
Opting Out of Analytics
If you wish to opt out of analytics cookies, you can adjust your browser settings or use the opt-out tools provided by our analytics service. We use anonymised analytics, and no personal data is collected through these cookies. If you need assistance, please contact us using the details at the bottom of this page.
Third-Party Cookies
Our website may use third-party services, such as embedded maps or analytics providers, which may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies and recommend reviewing the third party's privacy policy for more information.
For example, Google Maps may set cookies when you view our location on the contact page. Analytics providers may also set cookies for aggregated reporting. We do not share personal information with these third parties for their own marketing purposes.
