What a cookie is
A cookie is a short text file that 19richcasino.com asks your browser to store. On your next visit the browser hands it back, which is how the site remembers that you are logged in, which currency you chose, and whether you already dismissed a banner.
Alongside cookies we use two close relatives: local storage, which holds larger preferences on your device and never travels with a request, and pixels, single-pixel images that confirm an email was opened. This policy covers all three.
Cookies cannot read files on your computer, run programs, or carry viruses. The privacy question is about what they record, not what they can do to your device.
The four categories
Strictly necessary
Session identity, load balancing and fraud checks. These cannot be switched off — without them there is no logged-in session to protect.
Functional
Currency, interface language across English, French, Spanish and German, sound settings and your recently played list.
Analytics
Aggregated counts of which pages load, how long sessions run and where errors occur. Reported in groups, never per named player.
Marketing
Attribution for affiliate referrals and frequency capping so the same promotion does not follow you around indefinitely.
Only the first category is set before you make a choice. Functional, analytics and marketing cookies wait for your consent, and withdrawing that consent removes them on your next page load.
Cookie inventory
The table lists the cookies our own domain sets. Names may carry a short random suffix for security reasons, so treat the prefix as the identifier.
| Name | Category | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| r19_session | Strictly necessary | Keeps you signed in across pages | Until browser closes |
| r19_guard | Strictly necessary | Blocks cross-site request forgery | Session |
| r19_consent | Strictly necessary | Records the choices you made on this page | 12 months |
| r19_prefs | Functional | Currency, language and sound settings | 6 months |
| r19_recent | Functional | Recently played titles on the lobby | 30 days |
| r19_stat | Analytics | Anonymous visit and performance counters | 13 months |
| r19_src | Marketing | Which partner referred your visit | 30 days |
Third-party cookies
Some cookies come from suppliers rather than from us, and those suppliers publish their own policies.
- Game studios — titles from our 59 software partners load in a frame and may set a cookie holding the game session token. It expires when you close the game.
- Payment providers — card, Neosurf, iDebit and crypto processors set anti-fraud cookies during checkout only.
- Font delivery — typefaces are served by Google Fonts, which logs the request but sets no cookie of its own.
- Live chat — the 24/7 support widget stores a conversation reference so a reconnected chat keeps its history.
Controlling them
Three levers are available, from the most convenient to the most thorough:
- Use the consent banner shown on your first visit, or reopen it from the footer link at any time.
- Clear the cookies for 19richcasino.com in your browser, which resets every choice and signs you out.
- Switch on your browser's global blocking or tracking-protection setting, which affects every site you visit.
Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, and nothing about your account balance, bonus progress or VIP tier depends on a cookie choice.

What breaks if you refuse
Declining analytics and marketing costs you nothing. Declining functional cookies means the site forgets your currency and language on every visit, and the recently-played row stays empty.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies entirely will prevent login. The session cannot be identified, so deposits, withdrawals and gameplay all stop working.
Updates
The inventory above is checked whenever we add a supplier or change a tool, and at minimum once a year. The review date at the top of the page reflects the latest pass.
