IndieGames.eu does not collect your personal data unless you provide and make it available to us (e.g., when registering on the website, entering a contest, etc.), during which you have the option to consent to their use for specific purposes (user registration, prize delivery, etc.). With the aim of ensuring the best user experience, IndieGames.eu collects personal data in accordance with the applicable regulations—for example, to enable secure registration on the portal, to send updates and news by email, and to respond to user inquiries, remarks, and comments.

The IndieGames.eu portal uses so-called cookies. A cookie is information stored on your computer by the website you visit. Almost all websites use cookies and it is nearly impossible to imagine normal website functionality without them. Cookies typically store your preferences, such as preferred language or address. Later, when you revisit the same website, your web browser returns the cookies that belong to that site. This system enables the website to display information tailored to your needs. Cookies are also used to measure website traffic, for advertising, and other marketing purposes. Therefore, cookies help the IndieGames.eu portal and its users by supporting normal operation, marketing activities, improved content display, and the use of advanced functions and tools.
Cookies do not contain personal data that could identify you, and users can manage cookie settings through their web browser. Browser settings allow users to choose whether to save cookies, reject them, delete them upon closing the browser, and more.
You can disable cookies and prevent them from being stored on your computer. This can be done via your web browser settings or directly on third-party service pages whose cookies are stored, such as Google Analytics.
If you disable cookies, you may not be able to use some essential website functions. For example, IndieGames.eu uses cookies during user registration and login, to protect your account, recover passwords, and enable other important functionalities.
IndieGames.eu uses different types of cookies to personalize your experience and allow user login. Some cookies are set by third-party services displayed on IndieGames.eu pages. It is important to mention that there are persistent and session cookies, as well as first-party and third-party cookies.
Session cookies are automatically deleted once you close your browser (e.g., the contents of a shopping cart).
Persistent cookies remain on your computer until they expire or you manually delete them (e.g., “remember me” login options).
First-party cookies are saved directly by the website you are visiting. They may be session or persistent cookies. With these cookies, the IndieGames.eu portal remembers some of your previous settings, such as staying logged in.
Third-party cookies come from services the website uses, such as analytics tools, ad services, or social media integration.
