Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

Loot Boxes is an informational ranking and review service. We publish rankings, editorial reviews, platform facts and promotional codes for third-party mystery box platforms. When you follow a link to one of those platforms, you leave our site and become subject to that operator’s own privacy policy and terms. This Privacy Policy applies only to loot-boxes.com.

2. Information We Collect

Information you provide

You can browse most of the site without giving us any personal information. If you choose to email us, we receive the data you send us, such as your name, email address, and the contents of your message.

Information collected automatically

We do not use advertising trackers or set our own cookies. When you visit the site:

• Page view statistics: we use Vercel Web Analytics to count page views. It does not use cookies. Vercel records the page address, the referring site, an approximate location (country, region and city), and your browser, operating system and device type. Visitors are recognised by a hash of the incoming request that Vercel discards after 24 hours, and IP addresses are not stored with the statistics. We only see aggregated figures. See Vercel's Web Analytics privacy information.
• Hosting logs, our hosting provider, Vercel, processes technical data such as your IP address, browser type and the page requested in order to deliver the site and protect it from abuse.
• Fonts, pages load the Montserrat font from Google Fonts, so your browser connects to Google servers, which receive your IP address and browser details.
• Site search, the search box runs in your browser. What you type is not sent to us.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Operate, maintain, and improve the website and its rankings;
• Respond to your enquiries and provide support;
• Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, security, and technical issues;
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.

4. Affiliate Links & Tracking

Loot Boxes is an affiliate-supported website. Many outbound links, including some promo codes, are affiliate links. If you click one and subsequently register or make a purchase on a third-party platform, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. These links carry a referral identifier in the link address that tells the platform the visit came from us. The platform, not Loot Boxes, may then set its own cookies under its own privacy policy. We do not sell your personal data. Affiliate relationships do not change the check results that decide how sites are numbered, but they do influence which platforms we feature, as explained in our advertising disclosure.

5. Cookies & Similar Technologies

Loot Boxes does not set cookies and does not use local storage to track you. Third party platforms you visit through our links set their own cookies under their own policies. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings.

6. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:

• Service providers who host the site and provide page view statistics (Vercel), deliver fonts (Google Fonts) or handle our email;
• Affiliate partners receive only the referral identifier contained in the link you click;
• Authorities or third parties where required by law, to enforce our terms, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of our users or the public.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this policy, to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

8. Your Rights & Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below and we will respond in accordance with applicable law.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect your information against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Children & Age Restriction

This site and the platforms we review are intended strictly for adults aged 18 or over (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

11. International Visitors

We operate online and may process information in countries other than your own. Where we transfer personal data across borders, we take steps to ensure it remains protected in line with this policy and applicable law.

12. Third-Party Websites

Our rankings and reviews link to external mystery box operators and other third-party sites. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or security of those websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information or making a purchase.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Significant changes may be highlighted on the site. Your continued use of loot-boxes.com after an update means you accept the revised policy.
