PRIVACY POLICY
How Happy Player handles website information and how to contact us about your privacy.

About this policy
This policy explains how Happy Player handles information associated with this website, including enquiries, bug reports, game pitches, creator key requests and optional updates. In this policy, “we” and “our” mean the team operating the Happy Player website.
Individual games, stores and other services may have separate privacy notices. This policy covers our website rather than every service linked from it.
Information you share with us
Forms collect the details you enter, such as your name, email address, message, game and platform, channel or studio information, and links to your work. Key requests also ask for a region and quantity. Bug reports can include screenshots, logs or other permitted attachments. Required fields are marked on each form.
Please send only information relevant to your request. Do not include passwords, payment details or unnecessary sensitive information, and check screenshots and logs for personal details before attaching them.
Why we use information
We use information to answer enquiries, investigate issues, assess game proposals and key requests, send updates you ask for, and keep the website operating securely. Submissions are stored for review and may be forwarded to the team handling the request by email. Sending a request does not automatically sign you up for marketing.
Where a legal basis is required, it depends on the purpose: your consent for optional updates; steps towards an agreement that you request; our legitimate interests in responding to requests, improving and protecting the service; or compliance with legal obligations. Applicable rights and limits remain in place.
Hosting, statistics and browser preferences
This website uses WordPress.com and Jetpack services provided by Automattic for hosting and site features, including visit statistics. These services can process technical information such as IP addresses, browser and device details, pages visited, referring pages and access times, and may use cookies or similar technologies.
For information about Automattic’s processing, see Automattic’s visitor privacy notice.
We read browser language preferences to choose an initial language and use local browser storage to remember a language you select. Security controls may use an IP-derived identifier to limit repeated form requests. You can manage cookies and local storage through your browser; clearing them can reset preferences or affect some functions.
Sharing and service providers
Information may be accessed by people handling your request and providers supporting hosting, email, security and website operations. Relevant bug details may be shared with the game’s developer, and proposals with people assessing the project. We may also disclose information when legally required or necessary to protect rights and address misuse.
Providers may process information in countries other than your own. Their locations and applicable safeguards depend on the service and relevant law. Contact us if you would like information about the providers involved in your request.
Videos and external links
Loading hosted media or an embedded video can connect your browser to its provider and share technical information. Following a store, social or other external link takes you to a service with its own privacy practices. Please read that service’s notice before using it.
Retention and security
We keep information for the time reasonably needed to handle a request, follow up on a relationship, maintain security records or meet legal obligations. The period depends on the information and purpose; website records, email correspondence and provider backups may have different retention periods. We use reasonable safeguards, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.
Your choices and privacy requests
You can ask about information we hold about you, request corrections or deletion, or ask to stop optional updates. Depending on applicable law, you may also have rights to access, restrict or object to processing, receive a portable copy, withdraw consent, or complain to a data protection authority. Some requests are subject to legal exceptions and reasonable identity checks.
Send privacy requests to contact@happyplayer.com. Please tell us which service or submission your request concerns.
Policy updates
We may update this policy when our website or information practices change. The date above identifies the current version. Where required, we will provide additional notice or seek consent for a new use.
