Cookie policy for Evening Circle by ADSIGHT LTD

Cookie Policy Overview

ADSIGHT LTD operates Evening Circle as a modern editorial and information hub for corporate event management, gala production, and interactive casino-themed entertainment in Australia. As part of delivering this experience, we use cookies and similar tracking technologies on this website.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, how they support core website functionality and security, and how they contribute to an optimised browsing experience across our pages, including Event Services, Casino & Themed Packages, Past Gala Portfolio, and our Consultation page. It also sets out how you can manage your preferences in line with Australian legal expectations and industry best practices.

This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more broadly.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide owners with information about how the site is used.

Cookies help the Evening Circle website recognise your device, remember your preferences, and understand how you move between pages. This allows us to provide a smoother, more consistent experience when you browse event categories, explore curated gala stories, or submit consultation enquiries.

The main types of cookies we may use include:

• Session cookies: These cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when your browser is closed. They enable core functions such as moving between pages and keeping temporary selections (for example, remembering filters across a browsing session).
• Persistent cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They can be used to remember your preferences and choices across visits, such as language or region, ensuring a more seamless future visit to Evening Circle.
• First-party cookies: These are set directly by Evening Circle (the domain you are visiting) to support our website’s core functionality and performance.
• Third-party cookies: These are set by domains other than Evening Circle, often by trusted analytics, measurement, or embedded content providers. They help us understand how the site is used and may support certain multimedia or social features, subject to those providers’ policies.

In addition to cookies, we may also use related technologies such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage. For simplicity, we refer to all such technologies collectively as "cookies" in this policy.

Why We Use Cookies

Evening Circle is designed as a high-performance, content-rich environment, showcasing large-scale events, milestone galas, and casino-themed entertainment experiences. Cookies support this experience in several essential ways:

• Enabling core website functionality: Certain cookies are necessary to make the website function correctly. They help with page navigation, basic loading behaviour, maintaining the security of forms (such as our Consultation page), and ensuring that preference selections are preserved during your session.
• Maintaining security and integrity: We may use cookies to help protect Evening Circle from malicious activity, such as preventing misuse of forms, detecting suspicious traffic patterns, or supporting secure connections.
• Optimising performance and reliability: Performance-related cookies help us understand how quickly pages load, whether there are recurring errors, and which content is most viewed. This allows us to refine the structure of our service pages, event portfolios, and editorial features for a smoother browsing experience.
• Enhancing user experience: Functionality cookies allow us to remember preferences you choose on the site—such as language, general region, or how you interact with content sections—so that our event information is presented in a way that feels consistent and tailored.
• Analytics and usage insights: Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors discover and navigate Evening Circle. Insights into which event services, packages, or portfolio highlights are most visited assist us in improving our offerings and ensuring our content meets real-world interest and demand.

We do not use cookies to run online gambling services. Our use of cookies is limited to providing, protecting, and improving a premium event management and entertainment information platform.

Types of Cookies We Use

We categorise the cookies used on Evening Circle as follows. Depending on your browser settings and choices, not all cookies described below may be active at all times.

Third-party Cookies

Some cookies on Evening Circle may be set by trusted third-party service providers. These third parties help us analyse site usage, measure performance, or deliver embedded features that enhance the presentation of our event services and portfolio.

Examples of activities that may involve third-party cookies include:

• Analytics and measurement: Third-party analytics providers may use cookies to collect aggregated information about how visitors engage with Evening Circle, which pages are visited, and from which general locations. This enables us to understand performance trends and optimise our content and navigation.
• Embedded content or media: If we embed third-party media (for example, hosted videos, maps, or social content) within certain sections of the site, those services may set their own cookies to deliver and optimise that content.

These third parties process information in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies. Where applicable, we seek to implement solutions that respect your consent preferences and comply with relevant Australian guidance.

We do not use third-party cookies to facilitate online gambling or real-money gaming. Any casino or poker references on Evening Circle relate to live, in-person entertainment experiences using fun-money setups and professional event teams only.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have several options for managing how cookies are used when you visit Evening Circle. These include controlling cookies at the browser level and, where available, adjusting preferences through on-site tools such as our cookie banner or settings panel.

On-site controls

When you first visit Evening Circle, you may be presented with a cookie notice or banner. This banner is designed to inform you of our use of cookies and, where applicable, provide options to accept, reject, or customise non-essential cookies. You can revisit your choices at any time by interacting with cookie settings if presented again.

Browser settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings, including blocking cookies, limiting them to specific sites, or deleting them when you close your browser. Below are general instructions for some common browsers. The exact steps may vary depending on browser version and device:

• Google Chrome
  Go to Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data. From here you can choose to allow or block cookies, clear existing cookies, and configure site-specific rules.
• Mozilla Firefox
  Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data. You can block or delete cookies, manage exceptions, and adjust tracking protection.
• Apple Safari (macOS)
  Go to Preferences > Privacy. You can block all cookies, manage website data, and remove stored cookies and other data.
• Apple Safari (iOS)
  Go to Settings > Safari. Under "Privacy & Security", adjust your cookie and tracking options, and clear history and website data.
• Microsoft Edge
  Go to Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies and site data. From here you can block, allow, and clear cookies.

If you use multiple devices or browsers to access Evening Circle, you will need to configure your cookie preferences on each one separately.

Consent and Control

In line with Australian legal guidelines and good practice, we seek your consent before storing or accessing certain non-essential cookies on your device. This typically includes cookies used for analytics, performance measurement beyond what is strictly necessary, and selected functionality enhancements.

Your consent may be obtained via a banner, notice, or other on-site interface when you first visit Evening Circle or when material changes occur. You can usually:

• Accept all cookies, including those used for analytics and enhanced functionality.
• Reject non-essential cookies while still allowing strictly necessary cookies to operate the site.
• Customise your choices by enabling or disabling specific categories of cookies where such options are available.

You may withdraw or modify your consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings or, where provided, updating your preferences using on-site cookie controls. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

We may rely on legitimate interests for certain strictly necessary or security-related cookies while ensuring that your rights and expectations are respected.

Effects of Disabling Cookies

You are free to disable or restrict cookies at any time; however, doing so may affect how Evening Circle functions and how easily you can explore our services and content.

If you disable certain categories of cookies, you may experience the following:

• Reduced core functionality: Some site features, such as smooth navigation, form protection, and preference retention, may not operate correctly without strictly necessary or functional cookies.
• Limitations on subscriptions or updates: Features related to newsletter sign-ups or subscription-style updates (where offered) may not remember your preferences or may require you to re-enter information more frequently.
• Less tailored content: Our ability to highlight relevant event services, packages, or portfolio examples based on aggregated usage patterns may be reduced, resulting in a more generic browsing experience.
• Inconsistent experience across visits: Without persistent or functional cookies, Evening Circle may treat each visit as if you are a new visitor, and you may see repetitive banners or be required to re-set preferences.

Disabling cookies will not change the fact that Evening Circle is not an online gambling platform; our site remains strictly focused on event information and consultation for in-person entertainment experiences.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our website functionality, the cookies and technologies we use, or applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and may provide additional notice (for example, via a banner or highlighted message) where appropriate. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies and how you can manage your preferences.

Your continued use of Evening Circle after changes have been made will signify that you acknowledge the updated policy as it applies to your subsequent visits.
