Information we collect
GameLand Insider does not require you to create an account or provide any personal information to access our game guides, codes, and tier lists. The limited data we collect falls into two categories:
- Analytics data, page views, approximate country, referring URL, and browser type collected via Google Analytics (GA4). This data is aggregated and anonymised; we do not track individual visitors across sessions.
- Browser local storage, client-side preferences such as favorited guides or display settings. This data is stored only in your browser and is never transmitted to our servers.
How we use your data
We use aggregated analytics to understand which game guides are most helpful and to improve the site. We do not sell, rent, or share any visitor data with third parties for marketing purposes.

Children's privacy and intended audience
GameLand Insider is a general-audience website. It is an editorial reference and analysis publication about video games, code lists, tier rankings, calculators, patch coverage and strategy writing , aimed at players who research the games they play. It is not a game, not an interactive product for children, and not directed to children under 13. Some of the games we cover are popular with younger players, but our content is written for the person looking things up, and nothing on the site is designed to appeal to or be used by children as its primary audience.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and we do not build audiences or serve interest-based advertising directed at children. If you believe a child has submitted personal data to us, please contact us at the address below and we will delete it promptly. Parents and guardians who want to review or remove any data associated with a child can reach us the same way.
Data retention
Aggregated analytics data is retained for up to 26 months and then automatically deleted by Google Analytics. Local storage data stored in your browser persists until you clear it yourself.
Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of any personal data we hold. Since GameLand Insider collects only anonymised analytics, most visitors have no personal data on file with us. If you have a data request:
- Clear browser local storage at any time via your browser's privacy or history settings.
- Email privacy@gamelandinsider.com for any data access, correction, or deletion requests. We aim to respond within 30 days.
Changes to this policy
We may update this GameLand Insider privacy policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
