Why this page exists

Cookies keep MyPrize working the way you expect. This page explains, in plain language, what those small files do and how we handle them.

MyPrize is operated by My Technology, Inc. and runs under US sweepstakes rules, not a licensed online casino. We play with Gold Coins for fun, and Sweeps Coins can be redeemed for cash prizes. No purchase is ever necessary. Want the bigger picture on how we treat your data? Read our Privacy Policy alongside this document.

The categories we use

We group cookies into four buckets. Strictly-necessary cookies always run because the site cannot function without them. The other three only activate once you agree.

What a cookie actually is

A cookie is a tiny text file saved by your browser when you visit our site. It stores a short piece of information — a session ID, a preference, a counter.

Some cookies vanish the moment you close the tab. Others sit quietly for weeks so you don't have to log in again every single time. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, local storage and SDKs, and we treat all of them under this same policy.

Managing cookies in your browser

Your browser gives you the final word. Every major browser lets you block, delete, or limit cookies from its settings menu — usually under Privacy or Security.

Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge each publish step-by-step guides in their help centers. One caution: if you block strictly-necessary cookies, sign-in and prize tracking may break. Clearing cookies also resets your saved preferences, so you'll see the consent banner again.

Playing responsibly

MyPrize is for adults 21 and older, and it's meant to be fun. Cookies help us support healthy play, including session reminders and account tools.

If gambling stops feeling like entertainment, help is free and confidential. Call the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-522-4700 or visit ncpgambling.org. You'll also find limits and self-exclusion options on our Responsible Gambling page.

Consent and how to withdraw it

When you first arrive, a banner asks what you're comfortable with. Strictly-necessary cookies load automatically; everything else waits for your yes.

Changed your mind? You can reopen the preferences panel from the cookie link in our footer at any moment and switch categories off. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, and it won't lock you out of core play. For anything we can't answer here, reach our team through Contact.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to accept every cookie?

No. Only strictly-necessary cookies run by default. Functional, analytics and marketing cookies stay off until you choose to turn them on in the consent banner.

Will blocking cookies stop me from playing?

You can still browse, but blocking strictly-necessary cookies may break sign-in, security and the tracking of your Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins. We recommend leaving those enabled.

How do I change my choices later?

Click the cookie preferences link in the footer whenever you like. Toggle any category on or off, and your updated choice applies right away.

Who operates MyPrize?

MyPrize is run by My Technology, Inc. It operates under US sweepstakes rules, not a licensed online casino, so no purchase is necessary to play or to redeem Sweeps Coins for cash prizes.

How long do your cookies last?

It depends on the type. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent ones can remain from several months up to roughly 24 months, as shown in the table above.
