Hawkplay Privacy Policy: What a Visit to This Site Records
This is the privacy policy for this Hawkplay information and affiliate site, not for Hawkplay’s own site, which sets its own separate terms once a reader clicks through and registers.
What this policy covers
It applies only to a visit to this domain: the pages, the outbound Register and Login links, and any form on this site itself. It does not cover anything a reader does after leaving this site for Hawkplay’s own domain, which the reader should check separately once there.
Information a visit generates
Like most sites, a visit here generates a standard server log: the page requested, the approximate time, a referring page where one exists, and technical details such as browser type and an IP address. This is routine web-hosting behaviour, not a feature specific to this site, and it is used only to keep the site running and to understand which pages are read.
Cookies and similar technology
A cookie may be set for basic site functionality, such as remembering a display preference between page loads. No cookie set by this site is used to build an advertising profile of a reader. A reader can clear cookies at any time from their own browser settings, and the site continues to work without them.
Affiliate links and the tracking parameter
Every Register or Login link to Hawkplay on this site carries a short tracking parameter appended to the address. That parameter identifies this site as the referring source, so that a commission is attributed correctly if a reader goes on to register. It does not carry a reader’s name, email or any other personal detail, and it stops mattering once the click has landed on Hawkplay’s own domain.
Analytics
Where this site uses an analytics tool to count visits and popular pages, that tool sees the same server-log data described above: pages viewed and general technical details, not a reader’s account activity on Hawkplay’s own site, which this site cannot see at all.
Data retention
Server logs are kept only as long as needed for the purposes above, then cleared on an ordinary rolling basis, the way most standard web hosting operates. This site does not build a long-term personal profile of an individual reader.
Your rights under the Data Privacy Act of 2012
The Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173) gives a reader specific rights over personal data a site holds about them, including the right to be informed, the right to access it, the right to correct it, and the right to object to certain kinds of processing. A request under any of these rights can be raised through the Hawkplay contact page’s corrections route.
Changes to this policy
Where the affiliate program, the tracking method or the analytics setup changes, this page is updated to match, in line with the accuracy commitment on the Hawkplay terms of use page.
