Privacy notice

Who is responsible

HorizonUKs is the controller of the personal data handled through this site.

For anything to do with privacy, write to hello@horizonuks.com.

What data is involved

Gathered automatically: your IP address, the type of device and browser, which pages and games are opened, the site or advert that sent you here, and a rough location (country or city).

Provided by you: nothing beyond whatever you write in an email to us.

Playing needs no account, and we never ask what you are called.

Purposes and lawful bases

• Operating the site and keeping it secure, on the basis of legitimate interests.
• Measuring our adverts and making them better, on Facebook and Instagram among other places, on the basis of consent.
• Answering the emails you send, on the basis of legitimate interests.

Any cookie or similar technology that is not strictly necessary is used only once you have consented, in line with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).

Meta Pixel and Conversions API

With your consent we run two tools from Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, the Meta Pixel and the Meta Conversions API. They let us measure what people do on this site after seeing one of our adverts on Facebook or Instagram, and they help our adverts reach relevant audiences.

By means of cookies, web beacons and similar technologies, Meta and other third parties may collect or receive information from this website and from elsewhere on the internet, and may use it to provide measurement services and to target ads.

Neither tool runs unless you have chosen to allow advertising cookies. You can change that choice, or opt out, in these places:

• Cookie preferences for this site
• Your Facebook ad preferences, at facebook.com/adpreferences
• The privacy policy published by Meta, at facebook.com/privacy/policy
• Your Online Choices, at youronlinechoices.com/uk

Who receives data

• DigitalOcean, which hosts the site (data centres in Frankfurt, Germany)
• Meta, to measure adverts, and only where you have consented

Nobody is given your personal data to use in marketing of their own.

Transfers outside the UK

Some of the providers above handle data outside the UK, in the European Economic Area and in the United States among other places. In those cases your data is protected by UK adequacy regulations, or by the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum.

How long data is kept

• Server logs are held for 30 days.
• Emails are held until the matter is closed, and for 12 months after that.

Your rights

UK data protection law, meaning the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, lets you ask for access to your data, have it corrected or deleted, restrict or object to our use of it, and receive a copy in a portable format. Consent, wherever we rely on it, can be withdrawn whenever you like. Write to hello@horizonuks.com and you will have an answer within one month.

Adults only (18+)

HorizonUKs is meant solely for adults aged 18 or over, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone younger. Should you believe that someone under 18 has supplied data to us, tell us by email and it will be deleted.

Security

HTTPS is used across the site, access to our systems is restricted, and we keep the amount of data collected as small as we can.

Changes to this notice

Any change will be published on this page, and the date shown at the top will be revised.
