This Privacy Policy explains how Best Social Gaming W ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, discloses and protects information when you visit bestsocialgamingw.com. We are committed to transparency and to respecting privacy rights applicable in Canada, including principles aligned with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and substantially similar provincial laws where they apply.
Who we are
Best Social Gaming W operates an editorial website that ranks free social games for Canadian players. We are the data controller for personal information collected through this site. For privacy enquiries, contact us at support@bestsocialgamingw.com or write to CF Toronto Eaton Centre, 220 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M5B 2H1, Canada.
Information we collect
Automatic technical data. When you browse the site, servers and analytics tools may record your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device identifiers, referring URLs, pages viewed, timestamps and approximate location derived from IP (often at city or region level).
Contact form data. If you submit our contact form, we collect the name, email address, topic and message you provide voluntarily.
Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies and local storage as described in our Cookie policy. Optional analytics or affiliate cookies are activated only with your consent where required.
We do not require account registration to read our rankings, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13 without appropriate parental consent.
How we use information
- To operate, secure and maintain the website;
- To respond to enquiries submitted through the contact form;
- To measure aggregated traffic and improve content structure;
- To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms;
- To attribute affiliate referrals when you click certain outbound links.
We do not sell personal information to third parties. We do not use contact form data for unrelated marketing unless you explicitly opt in.
Legal bases and consent
Where PIPEDA or provincial privacy laws require a legal basis, we rely on consent (for example, optional cookies and contact messages), legitimate interests (site security and aggregated analytics) and legal compliance. You may withdraw consent for optional processing where applicable by adjusting cookie preferences or contacting us.
Sharing and third parties
We may share limited data with service providers who host the site, deliver email, or provide analytics — only under contracts that require appropriate safeguards. When you click links to Google Play or other external platforms, those services process data under their own policies. We are not responsible for third-party practices once you leave our site.
International transfers
Some service providers may process data outside Canada, including in the United States. Where transfers occur, we take steps designed to ensure a comparable level of protection consistent with applicable Canadian requirements.
Retention
Contact messages are retained only as long as needed to respond and maintain reasonable business records, typically up to twenty-four months unless a longer period is required by law. Server logs and aggregated analytics may be kept for shorter operational periods.
Security
We apply reasonable administrative, technical and organisational measures to protect information. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your rights
Depending on your province, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or withdraw consent regarding personal information we hold about you, subject to legal exceptions. To exercise these rights, contact us via the Contact page. You may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at priv.gc.ca if concerns remain unresolved.
Changes
We may update this policy to reflect legal, technical or business changes. Material updates will be indicated by revising the date above. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
