This Cookies Policy explains how Zinx Casino uses cookies and similar technologies on zinx.com and our mobile apps, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. It complements our Privacy Policy — please read both together to understand the full picture of how we handle data.
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They allow the site to recognise your browser on later visits, remember your settings (such as language or preferred odds format), and operate features that need to "stay on" between page loads — like keeping you logged in. Modern web platforms also use closely related technologies such as local storage, tracking pixels, tags and software development kits (SDKs). In this Policy "cookies" refers to all of these.
Cookies are usually classified along two dimensions:
We use cookies for a small number of clearly identified purposes:
Our cookie consent tool groups every cookie into one of five categories. You can accept or reject each non-essential category independently.
These cookies are essential for the platform to work: they keep you logged in, secure your session, balance load across our servers, and protect against cross-site request forgery. Without them you could not deposit, play, or withdraw. They do not require consent because they operate on the basis of implied consent under PIPEDA, and you cannot disable them in our consent tool. You can still block them at the browser level, but the site will not function correctly.
These cookies tell us how visitors find and use Zinx — which pages are most popular, where errors occur, and how long it takes a game to load. We work with industry-standard providers such as Google Analytics 4. Where the provider supports it we enable IP anonymisation and we do not link analytics identifiers to your account email.
These remember choices that improve the experience: your preferred language and currency, your saved odds format, recently played games, and your responsible-gaming UI state. Disabling them does not break the platform, but you will need to re-enter these preferences on every visit.
These cookies allow us and our advertising partners to show you Zinx promotions on other sites, to measure which campaigns are working, and to avoid showing you ads for offers you have already accepted. Under the Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL), we only set marketing cookies after you have given express consent in our consent banner.
If we embed social-media widgets or login buttons, those platforms (Meta, X, etc.) may set their own cookies on your device. We do not control these cookies; please review the privacy policy of the platform concerned.
Some cookies on Zinx are set by trusted partners. They include:
Each of these third parties operates under its own privacy and cookie policy, which we suggest you review.
The table below lists the cookies currently set on zinx.com. We update this inventory automatically through our Consent Management Platform; the version below was last refreshed on the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

You are always in control of non-essential cookies. There are three ways to manage your preferences.
On your first visit, our consent banner asks for your preferences. You can accept all categories, reject all non-essential categories, or accept categories selectively. You can reopen the banner at any time by clicking the "Cookie Preferences" link in the website footer.
All major browsers let you block or delete cookies. Steps vary by version, but the locations below get you started:
For interest-based advertising in Canada you can also use industry-wide opt-out tools:
Some browsers transmit a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. The web industry has not yet agreed on a uniform response standard, and many sites do not act on DNT. At present, Zinx does not change behaviour based on a DNT signal alone — we rely on our consent banner to give you a granular, auditable choice. If a Canadian or international standard emerges, we will update this Policy.
On its own, a cookie identifier is not generally considered personal information. However, once a cookie is linked to your registered Zinx account, the combined data is treated as personal information under PIPEDA and is governed by our Privacy Policy. That policy explains your access, correction and deletion rights, as well as how long we keep different categories of data.
We may update this Cookies Policy when we add new tools or change consent practices. Material changes will be flagged in your account or by re-prompting the consent banner. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the current version.
For questions about cookies or this Policy:
Strictly necessary cookies are required for login, security and session continuity. If you disable them at the browser level, key features such as authentication, deposits and gameplay will not work. Non-essential categories can be safely disabled without breaking the platform.
Click the "Cookie Preferences" link in the website footer to reopen the consent banner and change your choices. You can also clear your browser cookies, which will reset all consent state and trigger the banner on your next visit.
Yes. Pixels, beacons, SDKs and local-storage tokens are treated as "cookies" for the purposes of consent. Whether deployed on a webpage or inside an app, they are subject to the same opt-in rules.
Only when you have given express consent for marketing cookies, and only with the partners listed in the cookie inventory. We never share account-identifying personal information with advertisers without an additional legal basis.
