Information We Collect

1. Comments

When you leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as your IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection and prevention.

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. After your comment is approved, your Gravatar profile picture will be publicly visible in the context of your comment. You can view the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.

2. Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Other visitors can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device to improve your user experience.

  • Comment Cookies: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again in the future. These cookies will last for one year.
  • Login Cookies: When you log in, we will 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. When you log out, the login cookies will be removed.
  • Editor Cookies: If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

4. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on Hogo Game may include embedded content (e.g., videos from YouTube, images, other articles, etc.).

Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you visited the other website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. Your data may be shared in the following cases:

  • Service Providers: Such as anti-spam services to protect the site.
  • Legal Requirements: If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
  • Advertising Partners: We may use third-party advertising networks (like Google AdSense) to display ads on the website. These partners may use cookies to collect information about your visits in order to provide relevant advertisements.

How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: 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.
  • Registered Users: 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.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you have the right to:

  • Request a data export: You can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Request data erasure: You can 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.1
