PRIVACY
POLICY
The boring but important bit. We'll keep it as painless as possible.
OVERVIEW
This privacy policy explains how x_TapTap_x ("we", "us", "the site", "the bloke who runs this") collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit www.xtaptapx.com.
We take your privacy seriously — even though this is just a personal gaming website and not a multinational corporation. The short version: we collect very little, we don't sell anything, and we try to be decent about it.
WHAT WE COLLECT
When you visit the site, we may collect:
- Basic analytics data such as page views, browser type, and general geographic location (country level)
- Information you voluntarily provide via the contact form (name, email, message content)
- Cookies required for site functionality and third-party services
We do not collect:
- Financial or payment information
- Precise location data
- Data from minors knowingly
- Your K/D ratio (we respect boundaries)
HOW WE USE YOUR DATA
Any data collected is used for:
- Understanding how people use the site (so we can make it better)
- Responding to messages sent through the contact form
- Improving site performance and user experience
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We're a gaming website run by one person — we wouldn't even know how to do that.
COOKIES
This site uses cookies to ensure basic functionality and may use third-party cookies from services such as analytics providers and embedded content (Twitch, YouTube, etc.). You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings or via the cookie consent banner on the site.
Types of cookies we use:
- Essential cookies: Required for the site to function properly
- Analytics cookies: Help us understand site traffic and usage patterns
- Third-party cookies: Set by embedded content from platforms like Twitch, YouTube, and Discord
THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
This site links to and may embed content from third-party platforms including Twitch, YouTube, TikTok, Bluesky, and Discord. Each of these services has its own privacy policy, and we encourage you to review them. We have no control over the data practices of these platforms.
The site may also use a website translation service. This service may collect data about your activity as described in its own privacy policy.
DATA RETENTION
Contact form submissions are retained only as long as needed to respond to your enquiry. Analytics data is retained in aggregate form and cannot be used to identify individuals.
YOUR RIGHTS
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Request access to any personal data we hold about you
- Request correction or deletion of your personal data
- Withdraw consent for data processing
- Object to the processing of your personal data
- Request a copy of your data in a portable format
To exercise any of these rights, please get in touch via the contact page. We'll do our best to respond promptly, though "promptly" is relative when you're also trying to finish the Battle Pass.
CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
This site is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to remove it.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. We encourage you to check back occasionally, though we fully understand if you have better things to do.
CONTACT
If you have any questions about this privacy policy or how your data is handled, please reach out via the contact page or find us on Discord.
