Lazy Boy Games is the controller for personal information submitted directly through this website. Privacy questions and rights requests can be sent to support@lazyboygames.com.
2. Information we collect
Website visits
Our hosting and security systems may process IP address, request time, requested path, device or browser information, referring page, and response status. We use this limited information to deliver the site, prevent abuse, investigate faults and protect the service.
Contact enquiries
If you contact us, we receive the name, email address and message you choose to provide, together with the time of submission. Please do not include sensitive information that is not needed for your enquiry.
Games
Our catalogue includes games with different features and release histories. A game may process technical identifiers, preferences, game progress, scores, multiplayer or leaderboard information, crash information, advertising information, or platform account information where those features are present. The exact data depends on the game, its version, platform settings and services used.
3. Why we use information
- To provide, maintain and secure the website and games.
- To respond to enquiries and support requests.
- To diagnose faults, prevent fraud or abuse, and enforce applicable terms.
- To operate optional online, multiplayer, leaderboard, advertising or platform features where included.
- To meet legal obligations and establish or defend legal claims.
Our UK GDPR legal bases may include performance of a contract, legitimate interests in operating and securing our services, consent where required, and compliance with law.
4. Service providers and platforms
We may use hosting, infrastructure, email, security, app-store, advertising, multiplayer and platform services to provide relevant features. Apple and other platform providers process information under their own privacy terms. We do not sell personal information.
5. Cookies, local storage and similar technology
This public website does not require an advertising or analytics cookie banner at the date shown above. Essential storage may be used where necessary for security or a requested feature. Games and third-party platform services may use device storage or identifiers according to the feature, platform permission and applicable law.
6. Children
Our games are intended for a general or family audience where indicated by their store rating. We do not knowingly ask children to submit personal information through this website. If a parent or guardian believes a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
7. Retention
We keep information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, security, support, legal obligations and dispute resolution. Contact messages are retained while an enquiry is handled and for a reasonable follow-up period. Security logs are retained on a limited operational schedule, subject to longer preservation where an incident or legal duty requires it.
8. International transfers and security
Providers may process information in the UK, European Economic Area or other countries. Where required, we rely on recognised safeguards for international transfers. We use proportionate technical and organisational safeguards, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing, request portability, withdraw consent, and complain to a regulator. UK users may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office. We may need to verify a request and legal exceptions can apply.
10. Changes and contact
We may update this notice when our games, services or legal obligations change. The effective date above identifies the current version. Questions and rights requests: support@lazyboygames.com.
