Cookies

Why this policy exists

Cookies keep our site working and help us understand what players enjoy. This page explains what we store on your device and why.

Horseplay is operated by Game Play Network. When you open our site, small files are placed on your browser or phone. Some are essential; others only run once you say yes. We wrote this policy so you always know what is happening and how to change it.

For the bigger picture on how we handle your information, read our Privacy Policy alongside this page.

What a cookie actually is

A cookie is a tiny text file. It remembers things — your login state, your currency, whether you dismissed a banner.

Some cookies vanish the moment you close the tab. These are session cookies. Others, called persistent cookies, stay for a set period so the site recognises you on your next visit. We also use similar technologies such as pixels and local storage, and we treat them under the same rules described here.

The cookie categories we use

We group cookies into four categories. Strictly-necessary cookies are always on, because the site cannot run without them. The rest depend on your consent.

CategoryPurposeTypical duration
Strictly necessarySign-in, account security, session integrity, load balancing and fraud preventionSession to 12 months
FunctionalRemembering your currency (USD), language and display preferencesUp to 12 months
AnalyticsMeasuring page visits and game popularity so we can fix and improve the siteUp to 24 months
MarketingShowing relevant promotions and measuring campaign performanceUp to 13 months

Durations are maximums. Many cookies expire sooner, and we review them regularly.

Consent and how to withdraw it

On your first visit, our banner asks what you allow. Accept everything, reject the optional categories, or pick category by category — the choice is yours.

Changed your mind? You can withdraw or adjust consent whenever you like through the cookie settings link on our site, and the change takes effect straight away. Withdrawing consent does not affect anything we lawfully processed before you did so. Strictly-necessary cookies stay active because they are required to deliver a service you requested. Questions? Reach our team through the Contact page.

Managing cookies in your browser

Your browser gives you a second layer of control. You can block cookies, delete existing ones, or get a warning before any are set.

Look under Settings or Preferences in Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge, then find the privacy or cookies section. On mobile, the controls sit in your browser or system settings. One caveat: if you disable strictly-necessary cookies, parts of Horseplay may stop working, including sign-in and deposits. Account registration and play are limited to those aged 19 and over. If gambling stops being fun, support is available through our responsible gambling tools, ConnexOntario on 1-866-531-2600, or responsiblegambling.org.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to accept all cookies to play?

No. Strictly-necessary cookies run so the site can function, but analytics and marketing cookies are optional. You can decline them and still deposit, play and withdraw.

How do I change my cookie choices later?

Open the cookie settings link on our site at any time. Update your preferences and they apply immediately — no need to contact us first.

Will blocking cookies affect my account?

Blocking strictly-necessary cookies can break sign-in, session security and payments. Functional, analytics and marketing cookies can be switched off without stopping core play.

How long do Horseplay cookies last?

It depends on the type. Session cookies clear when you close your browser, while persistent cookies last from a few months up to 24 months, as shown in the table above.

Who controls the cookies on this site?

Horseplay is operated by Game Play Network, which acts as the controller. Any data we collect through cookies is handled in line with our Privacy Policy.
