Information we receive
The site does not run reader accounts, comments, or checkout.
New Game HQ does not ask readers to create a profile, submit payment information, or post public comments. If you email us, we receive the information you choose to include, such as your email address, message, page URL, source links, and attachments.
Standard hosting and security systems may process technical information such as an IP address, request time, requested URL, browser or device information, and error or security signals. This information may be used to deliver the site, prevent abuse, diagnose failures, and maintain security.
Analytics
Google Analytics helps identify useful pages and broken routes.
New Game HQ uses Google Analytics to understand page views, referral sources, broad location and device categories, navigation patterns, and technical performance. Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies and may process IP addresses, device information, browser information, and interaction events under Google’s terms and privacy practices.
Analytics information is used to improve guides, navigation, performance, and page reliability. It is not used by New Game HQ to create reader accounts.
Advertising and Google AdSense
Advertising providers may use cookies and similar technologies.
New Game HQ may display advertising through Google AdSense or related Google advertising services. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, device identifiers, browser information, and similar technologies to serve ads, limit repeated ads, detect fraud, measure performance, and personalize advertising where permitted.
Google’s use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads based on visits to New Game HQ and other sites on the internet. Learn how Google uses information from sites and apps that use its services at Google’s partner sites policy.
You can manage personalized advertising through Google Ad Settings. Additional interest-based advertising choices may be available through YourAdChoices and the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.
Cookies and browser storage
Only a small number of tools keep local preferences.
Analytics and advertising providers may set or read cookies and similar identifiers. New Game HQ uses browser localStorage only for useful repeat actions such as claimed code records, multi-step calculator inputs, spoiler preferences, or collapsed game navigation. Ordinary database searches and filters remain in the URL or reset when the page is refreshed.
LocalStorage is stored by your browser on your device. New Game HQ does not require an account, and these local preferences are not sent to a New Game HQ profile.
Your choices
You can control cookies, advertising preferences, and local tool preferences.
- Block or delete cookies through your browser settings.
- Clear New Game HQ site data or localStorage through browser controls.
- Use the reset control inside a tool when one is provided.
- Manage personalized ads through Google Ad Settings and available regional choice tools.
- Email a privacy request through the contact page.
Some features may work differently after cookies are blocked, and local code claims or calculator inputs will be removed when browser site data is cleared.
Other services and external links
External sites apply their own policies.
Guides may link to official game sites, storefronts, platform pages, developer posts, documentation, community services, and other external resources. Those services have their own privacy policies, terms, cookies, and data practices. New Game HQ is not responsible for how an external service handles information after you leave this site.
If affiliate links or sponsored placements are used, purchases and account activity occur on the external service. New Game HQ does not receive your full payment credentials from that external checkout.
Children’s privacy
New Game HQ is intended for a general gaming audience.
The site is not designed to collect personal information from children through accounts, comments, or payments. If you believe a child has sent personal information by email or that personal information about a child appears on the site, contact us so the request can be reviewed and the information removed where appropriate.
Contact and changes
Send privacy questions through the contact page.
Email corrections@newgamehq.com with the subject “Privacy request,” or use the contact page. Describe the information or service involved without sending passwords, payment details, or unrelated private data.
This policy may change when the site adds or removes services, advertising technology, storage features, or legal requirements. The latest revision date appears at the top of this page.
