Privacy Policy

Who We Are

y555 Gaming Hub operates this website to provide gaming-related content and services. Protecting the privacy of our visitors is important to us, and this policy explains how user information is handled when you interact with our site.

Comments

When users leave comments on our website, we collect the information entered in the comment form. In addition, we record the visitor’s IP address and browser details to help prevent spam and maintain site security.

A coded version of your email address (known as a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to verify whether you use it. You can review Gravatar’s privacy practices at Automattic’s official privacy page. Once your comment is approved, your profile image (if linked to Gravatar) may appear publicly alongside your comment.

Media Uploads

If you choose to upload images to the website, we recommend removing any embedded location data (such as EXIF GPS information). Other visitors may be able to download images from the site and extract this data.

Cookies

When you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This feature is designed for convenience and allows you to comment again without re-entering your details. These cookies remain active for up to one year.

Visiting our login page creates a temporary cookie to check whether your browser supports cookies. This cookie does not store personal information and is deleted once you close your browser.

After logging in, cookies are set to remember your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while display preference cookies remain for one year. If you select the “Remember Me” option, your session will stay active for two weeks. Logging out will remove login cookies.

When you publish or edit content, an additional cookie may be stored. This cookie does not contain personal data and simply tracks the ID of the edited post. It expires after 24 hours.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Some pages on y555 Gaming Hub may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles from third-party websites. Interacting with this content is the same as visiting those external websites directly.

These third-party sites may collect data about you, use cookies, apply additional tracking tools, and monitor your interaction—especially if you are logged in to their platform.

Data Sharing

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email for security verification purposes.

Data Retention

Comments and their related data are stored indefinitely to help us automatically recognize and approve future comments.

For registered users (if applicable), personal information provided in user profiles is stored securely. Users can view, update, or delete their personal details at any time, except for their username. Website administrators may also access this information for management purposes.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that your personal data be deleted, except for information we must retain for legal, administrative, or security reasons.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be processed through automated spam detection services to help maintain a safe and secure environment.
