At GameBuzzDaily, we respect and protect your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you visit and interact with our website.

Who we are

Our website address is: https://gamebuzzdaily.com.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

We may also use your comment data (name, email, content) to enhance user engagement, respond to queries, and improve our content. By submitting a comment, you consent to our use of this data as described.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

We encourage you to use images without sensitive data to avoid any unintentional disclosure of private information.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content. This includes tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of these third-party sites as they may operate differently than ours.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties. However, we may share your data with trusted partners, including service providers that help with website functionality (such as hosting or analytics), in order to enhance your user experience. These third parties are contractually obligated to protect your data and only use it for the services they provide to us.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

If you wish to delete your account or personal information, please contact us using the details provided below.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To exercise any of these rights, please reach out to us through the contact form or email address provided below.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. This helps us protect our site and provide a better experience by reducing spam comments.
