Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy of GameHov

At GameHov, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website, accessible at https://gamehov.com.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect personal information that you provide directly, such as your name, email address, and any other details you submit through our contact form. Additionally, we may collect non-personal information automatically, such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form and the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

2. Comments and Media

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’s privacy policy is available here. If you upload images to the website, please avoid including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can extract this information.

3. Cookies

Our website may use cookies to enhance your experience. If you leave a comment, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience, so you don’t have to fill in your details again. These cookies last for one year. If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies, which contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Additionally, if you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved that includes no personal data and expires after one day.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To respond to your inquiries and provide customer support.
  • To improve our website and services based on user feedback.
  • To send you updates, newsletters, and promotional materials, if you opt in.

5. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your information with trusted service providers who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, as long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

6. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.

7. 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 those websites. These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interactions with that embedded content.

8. Data Retention and Rights

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically. For users that register on our website, we 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). If you have an account 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, and you can request that we erase any personal data we hold about you.

9. Links to Other Websites

Our website may contain links to third-party sites. We do not control these websites and are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any linked sites.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any updates.
