Games by Hyper — Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
Welcome to Games by Hyper. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using our website and buying from our shop you agree to the practices described here.
2. Who we are / Contact
Data controller: Games by Hyper
Contact: privacy@gamesbyhyper.com
3. Information we collect
3.1 Personal information you give us
- Name, email address, billing & shipping address, phone number and payment details when you place an order.
- Account username and password when you register on the site.
- Any information you provide in support requests or messages.
3.2 Information we collect automatically
- Usage data (pages visited, browser, device, IP address, referrer).
- Cookies and similar technologies (see Cookies section).
3.3 Third-party data
We may receive limited information from third parties (for example, payment or fraud-prevention services) to help process orders and improve service.
4. How we use your information
We use data to:
- Process and fulfil your orders and manage returns.
- Communicate about your orders, payments and support requests.
- Provide and improve our website, products and services.
- Send marketing messages if you gave consent (you can opt out anytime).
- Prevent fraud and comply with legal obligations.
Lawful basis (if GDPR applies): performance of a contract (orders), legitimate interests (fraud prevention, improvements), and consent (marketing / SMS where applicable).
5. SMS abandoned-cart (if you opt in to SMS)
If you have opted in to receive SMS messages, we may use cookies or similar tracking technologies to determine if items were left in your shopping cart and to send cart reminder messages via SMS. We will only send SMS messages if you explicitly opt in and you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in the message or by contacting privacy@gamesbyhyper.com.
6. Sharing and third-party processors
We do not sell your personal data. We share personal data only with service providers who need it to operate the shop (for example: payment processors, hosting, email/SMS and analytics services).
Important: SMS opt-in data and SMS consent will not be shared with non-affiliated third parties.
7. Cookies and tracking
We use cookies for:
- Essential site functionality (login, cart).
- Performance and analytics (to improve the site).
- Optional marketing (only with consent where required).
You can control cookies via your browser settings or through any cookie-consent banner you use.
8. Embedded content
Pages may contain embedded content (e.g., videos). Embedded content behaves as if you visited that external site — those sites may collect data about you.
9. How long we keep data
- Order & billing records: retained as required by law (check local rules).
- Account profile and metadata: retained until the account is deleted or removed.
- Logs and analytics: retained in anonymized or aggregated form as needed.
10. Your rights
Depending on your jurisdiction you can:
- Access, correct or delete the personal data we hold about you.
- Request a copy of your data in a portable format.
- Object to or restrict processing (where applicable).
- Withdraw consent to marketing and SMS messages at any time.
To exercise your rights, contact: privacy@gamesbyhyper.com
11. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data. No internet transmission is fully secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. We will post updates on this page. Significant changes will be communicated as appropriate.

OpenAI ad measurement
We use the OpenAI Pixel and Conversions API to understand whether our ChatGPT advertisements lead to visits and purchases. For visitors identified as being in the United States, measurement starts unless they have declined or their browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal. In other countries, and when location cannot be determined, measurement starts only after choosing Nom nom! (allow). The cookie box reopens in the bottom-right corner when you visit this privacy-policy page, so you can change your choice. Following a refusal or browser privacy signal, allowing measurement requires a separate confirmation for this site. We remember that explicit choice in this browser; clearing the permission cookies restores the default. You can decline without affecting shopping, payment, or downloads. Withdrawal stops further browser measurement and cancels server events that have not yet been sent; it cannot recall events already delivered.
Measurement includes page and product views, cart and checkout activity, purchased products, purchase totals and currencies, event identifiers, and OpenAI click and browser references. Browser requests also disclose technical connection information such as IP address and browser details to OpenAI. If automatic advanced matching is enabled, the Pixel can normalize and hash supported contact details entered on the site to help match conversions. Our server integration does not send contact details, postal addresses, payment credentials, or order access keys. We request that events be opted out of future user-level personalization.
Our preference and anonymous permission-receipt cookies last up to 180 days; our OpenAI click-reference cookie lasts up to 30 days. A separate cookie remembers for up to 180 days that the US notification was shown or the prompt was closed. Closing the prompt does not grant measurement permission. Automatic US measurement is recorded separately from explicit consent and its region is checked on each page. The OpenAI Pixel also uses its own first-party reference cookies when measurement is active. Withdrawals are retained for the receipt lifetime to prevent pending events from being sent. If saving a withdrawal fails, a preference cookie remembers to retry on your next visit, for up to 180 days. Tracking choices do not control other services described elsewhere in this policy.
