Cookies and Tracking

Stellare uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, analyse site usage, and support our marketing efforts. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences, understand how you interact with our site, and deliver personalised content.

We use different types of cookies:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: Essential for the website to function correctly, enabling core functionalities like security, network management, and accessibility.
  • Performance Cookies: Collect information about how you use our website, such as which pages you visit most often, to improve website performance.
  • Functional Cookies: Allow the website to remember choices you make (like your username, language, or region) and provide enhanced, more personal features.
  • Targeting/Advertising Cookies: Used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.

You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality and your experience on Stellare.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. This typically means we will retain your data for the duration of your active account with Stellare and for a further period as mandated by our legal and regulatory obligations, which can be up to five years after account closure or longer if required by specific regulations.

In some circumstances, we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

International Data Transfers

Your personal data may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). This may occur if our service providers or their servers are located in such countries. When we transfer your data outside the EEA, we implement appropriate safeguards, such as using standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, or verifying the recipient country has been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection by the European Commission.

Children's Privacy

Stellare is strictly for individuals aged 18 years or older, or the legal age for gambling in their jurisdiction, whichever is higher. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under this age. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child, we will take steps to delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child, please contact us immediately.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or technological advancements. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of the policy.
