Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 1, 2025
BuyGameStore (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data transparently and responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights and responsibilities when using our website and services.
1. What We Collect
When you use our website, mobile application, or related services, we may collect the following types of information:
- Technical Information: Including your IP address, browser type, device type, and other metadata collected via our hosting platform for security, diagnostic, and logging purposes.
- Contact Information: Such as your name and email address when you create an account or contact us. This information allows us to communicate with you and provide the services you request.
- Preferences and Interests: Data you optionally provide, or inferred through use of the platform, to help us better tailor content, offers, and features to your interests.
- Behavioral Data: Your activity and behavior on our blog or website, collected via tools such as Google Analytics, Meta (Facebook/Instagram) Pixel, Twitter/X, Pinterest, YouTube, and Discord integrations, to understand usage patterns and improve user experience.
We collect significantly less data than most websites, and we do not display third-party advertising on our platform. This means your experience is more private and less subject to external tracking than on typical ad-supported sites.
2. Use of Collected Data
We use the data we collect:
- To operate and maintain our platform and services.
- To respond to your inquiries or support requests.
- To personalize your experience, including content and recommendations.
- For analytics, security, and performance optimization.
- For marketing purposes, including targeted advertising through third-party platforms, consistent with their own privacy policies and user controls.
3. Payments and Financial Data
We do not collect, process, or store your credit card, PayPal, or other payment details directly.
All payment transactions are processed securely through third-party payment processors (the “Merchants”), and we receive only transaction status details (e.g., “approved” or “declined”).
We never see or store your full payment credentials.
We never have access to your full payment credentials.
4. Sharing Your Information
We do not sell your personal data.
We may share limited data with third-party platforms (such as Google, Meta, Twitter, etc.) only in the following circumstances:
- When you voluntarily use a login or integration with their service.
- When you share or interact with our content on their platform.
- When anonymous data is processed for analytics or advertising purposes, in accordance with their terms and your settings with those providers.
These types of integrations and data use are standard practices across the internet and are implemented in a manner consistent with industry norms and your reasonable expectations.
5. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
We are committed to securing your data and keeping it confidential. We implement appropriate safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
However, while we make reasonable efforts, no system is fully secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute safety of your data.
By using our services, you agree that we are not liable for any security incidents, breaches, or unauthorized access that may occur despite our safeguards.
6. Your Rights
- Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to:
- Access the data we hold about you.
- Request corrections or deletions.
- Withdraw consent or opt out of marketing.
Some of these actions can be performed directly within the My Account section of our website. For example, you may be able to manage your communication preferences, edit your profile details, or modify/delete your reviews.
If certain features or requests are not available to you via your account dashboard, please contact us directly and we will assist you promptly.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us.
7. Your Consent and Responsibility
By accessing or using our website or services, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree or are uncomfortable with the data practices described, we respectfully advise that you discontinue use of our platform.
You are solely responsible for your use of the platform and for maintaining the confidentiality of any login or access credentials.
