Privacy Policy

1. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the informational website gamesacrossworld.com operated by our editorial team in Milan, Italy. We provide curated listings and editorial content about third-party browser games. We are not the publisher of the games themselves, and separate privacy terms apply once you follow a Play Now link.

2. Data Controller

The data controller for this site is Games Across World Editorial, Centro Commerciale Merlata Bloom, Via Guillaume du Bois 21, 20157 Milano MI, Italy. You may contact us at [email protected] for privacy-related requests.

3. Categories of Personal Data

We may process identification data (name, email) when you submit our contact form, technical data (IP address, browser type, device identifiers) in server logs, and usage data (pages viewed, referral URLs) if analytics cookies are enabled with your consent.

4. Purposes of Processing

We use data to respond to editorial inquiries, maintain site security, measure aggregate traffic to improve layout performance, comply with legal obligations, and defend against abuse such as spam or credential stuffing against our forms.

5. Legal Bases Under GDPR

Processing rests on consent for non-essential cookies, legitimate interest for essential operation and fraud prevention, and contractual necessity when you ask us to follow up on a message you sent voluntarily through the contact form.

6. Retention Periods

Contact messages are stored up to twenty-four months unless legal disputes require longer retention. Server logs rotate on a rolling ninety-day schedule. Cookie consent choices remain in your browser localStorage until you clear site data.

7. Recipients and Processors

Hosting providers, email delivery services, and optional analytics vendors may process data under strict data processing agreements. We do not sell personal information to data brokers or ad networks.

8. International Transfers

If infrastructure located outside the European Economic Area is used, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions to maintain GDPR-aligned protection for EU visitors, including players browsing from Italy.

9. Your Rights

You may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or objection regarding your personal data. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali in Italy.

10. Security Measures

We deploy TLS encryption, hardened server configurations, and least-privilege access for staff accounts. No online service is perfectly secure; please use unique passwords on publisher sites linked from our catalog.

11. Children’s Privacy

Our editorial content targets adults and teens with parental guidance. We do not knowingly collect data from children under sixteen without verified parental consent. Many linked games carry their own age ratings and parental controls.

12. Third-Party Publisher Links

When you click Play Now, you leave gamesacrossworld.com and enter a publisher-controlled environment that may set its own cookies and analytics. Review their privacy statements before creating game accounts.

13. Relationship to Cookie Policy

Detailed descriptions of cookie names, lifetimes, and opt-out mechanics appear in our Cookie Policy. Essential cookies required for consent storage may load without additional permission.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect regulatory changes or new site features. Material updates will adjust the “Last updated” date above. Continued browsing after changes constitutes acknowledgment unless consent is legally required again.
