Cookies & Safety

1. Comprehensive Cookie Usage Statement

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by your browser when you visit the Winning Tonight platform. We use these technologies specifically to ensure the social casino functions correctly. They allow us to maintain your authentication status so you don't have to log in repeatedly, and they are crucial for keeping your Noctis Token balance synced via localStorage across different playrooms like the Aurora Roulette and Glowworm Cascades.

2. Functional vs Analytical Tracking Modules

We deploy two distinct categories of tracking technologies. 'Functional Modules' are strictly necessary for the site to operate; without them, the virtual wallet and game state persistence would fail. 'Analytical Modules' collect anonymized data regarding how users navigate the Emerald Foyer and interact with games. This helps us identify technical bottlenecks and optimize the user interface. We categorically do not use advertising cookies to track your behavior across third-party websites.

3. Managing and Deleting Your Cookie Preferences

You have full control over your cookie environment. Most modern web browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through their privacy settings. If you choose to disable functional cookies, please be aware that the Winning Tonight platform will not operate correctly; you will be unable to log in or save your virtual progress. For instructions specific to your browser, please consult its official help documentation.

4. Winning Tonight's Responsible Play Philosophy

We are dedicated to providing a safe, enjoyable environment. We believe in fun, balanced play. Social casino games should be enjoyed strictly as entertainment, without any financial risk or expectation of reward. Even though our platform involves zero real money, we recognize that the mechanics of slot and wheel games can be highly engaging. We advocate for playing responsibly and maintaining strict boundaries regarding the time spent on the platform.

5. Virtual Bankroll and Time Management Tools

To support balanced play, we encourage users to utilize our Smart Bankroll Lab principles outlined on the homepage. Treat your Noctis Tokens carefully to prolong your session. While we do not enforce deposit limits (as no deposits exist), we strongly advise setting personal time limits before initiating a session. Treat a visit to the Zealandia Nocturnal Gala just as you would any other form of casual digital entertainment.

6. Self-Assessment: Recognizing Habitual Play

It is important to regularly assess your relationship with social gaming. Ask yourself: Are you spending more time on the platform than you originally intended? Is gameplay interfering with your daily responsibilities or social life? Are you feeling frustrated when your virtual balance is low? If you answer yes to these questions, it may be time to step back. Remember, success here does not translate to real-world outcomes.

7. Voluntary Self-Exclusion Mechanisms

If you feel that your use of the Winning Tonight platform is no longer purely recreational, we provide a voluntary self-exclusion mechanism. By contacting our Concierge team via the support form, you can request a temporary account freeze (cooling-off period) or a permanent account closure. Once a self-exclusion request is processed, you will not be able to access the playrooms or your virtual balance until the requested period expires.

8. External Helplines for New Zealand Players

If you or someone you know is struggling with gaming habits—whether related to real money gambling or intensive social casino play—professional support is available. We encourage New Zealand players to reach out to local resources such as the Gambling Helpline NZ for confidential advice and assistance. Additionally, the international organizations linked in our footer, GamCare and BeGambleAware, provide excellent educational materials on maintaining balanced habits.
