01Who we are
This website is run by Averix Games ("Averix", "we", "us"), an independent game studio. This policy explains what information we handle when you use this website and related pages, and the choices you have.
02What we collect
We keep this to a minimum. The site has no user accounts, no sign-up and no payments.
- What you send us. If you use the enquiry form on the Partnerships page, or contact us by email or on Discord, we receive the details you choose to share, such as your name, email address, organisation and message. Enquiries sent through the form are stored in our secure database so we can read and reply to them.
- Technical data. Like most websites, our hosting provider automatically records basic technical information when a page is requested, such as IP address, browser type, device type and the pages visited. We use it to keep the site secure and working.
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information, and we ask that you do not send it to us.
03How we use information
- To reply to your enquiry and talk about partnerships, press or collaborations.
- To run, secure and improve the website.
- To meet legal obligations and protect our rights.
04Third-party services
Some parts of the site rely on other companies, which may process limited data under their own policies:
- Hosting. Our hosting provider delivers the site and keeps server logs.
- Database. Google Firebase stores the news and events we publish and the enquiries you send us. Only authorised Averix team members can read enquiries.
- Google Fonts. The site loads its typefaces from Google, which means your browser contacts Google's servers and your IP address is shared with them.
- Video. When a game trailer is added to a page, it may be played from a video provider such as YouTube (using its privacy-enhanced mode). That provider may set its own cookies when you press play.
- Social and community links. Links to Discord, X, TikTok and Instagram take you to those platforms. Their own privacy policies apply once you leave our site.
07How long we keep it
We keep enquiries only as long as needed to respond and to keep a reasonable record of the conversation, and we delete them on request. Server logs are kept by our hosting provider for a short period under its own retention rules.
08Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask what personal information we hold about you, to correct it, to delete it, or to object to how we use it. To make a request, contact us using the details below and we will respond as soon as we reasonably can.
09Children
Games are for everyone, but this website is not designed to collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
10Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information we handle. No website or message can be guaranteed completely secure, so please avoid sending anything highly confidential.
11Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the studio and the site grow. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
