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 websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics & Cookies
To help understand your interests, we use Google, and other advertising and analytics partners to help us to understand how you navigate our website and what you like most on our website using cookies.
A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies. A persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date unless deleted by the user before the expiry date. A session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed. Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user. But, the personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.
By using this site, you consent to the use of such cookies and the sharing of data captured by such cookies with Google, and our other third-party partners. You can view, delete, or add interest categories associated with your browser by visiting: https://adssettings.google.com. You can also opt-out of the network cookie using those settings or using the Network Advertising Initiative’s multi-cookie opt-out mechanism at http://optout.networkadvertising.org. However, these opt-out mechanisms themselves use cookies, and if you clear the cookies from your browser, your opt-out will not be maintained.

If you wish to access or delete your personal data (if any) maintained by us or third party platforms related to advertising & analytics on the site, you can contact us at via our contact form here.

Routine Information Collection
All web servers track basic information about their visitors. This information includes, but is not limited to, IP addresses, browser details, timestamps, and referring pages. None of this information can personally identify specific visitors to this site. The data is tracked for routine administration and maintenance purposes.

Who has access to your data at Smash It Games
Members of our team and website administrators can access:
Order information; which tickets were purchased and when, where prizes were sent, and customer account information like your name, email address, and billing and shipping information. Our team members have access to this information to help fulfil orders, process refunds and support you.
What we share with others
We use a third party payment gateway called Cashflows to process your payments. When processing payments, some of your data will be passed to the third party payment systems, including information required to process or support the payment, such as the purchase total and billing information.
This information includes:
- Name
- Address
- Phone
- City/county/postcode
- Unique payment identifier
- Payment provider identifier
This allows us to provide you with a seamless payment system using your mobile wallet and credit/debit cards and ensures that we are protected from any fraudulent behaviour
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise 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 (usernames cannot be edited). Website administrators can also see and edit that information for you.
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.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service for our protection.
