2. General information and website hosting

This privacy policy explains what personal data may be processed when you visit matikusgames.com and how it is used. This static website is hosted on GitHub Pages, a service provided by GitHub, Inc. GitHub may process technical connection and server-log data, including the IP address, browser and device information, the requested page, referring URL, and the date and time of a request, in order to deliver and secure the website.

This processing is based on our legitimate interest in providing a stable and secure website (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Further information is available in the GitHub General Privacy Statement.

3. Google Fonts

This website loads fonts from Google Fonts. When a page is opened, the visitor’s browser connects to Google servers and transmits technical connection data, including the IP address. This processing is based on our legitimate interest in presenting the website consistently and efficiently (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Further information is available in the Google Privacy Policy.

4. Twitch status service

The website retrieves public stream-status and activity information from twitchapi.matikusgames.com. The request necessarily transmits technical connection data, including the visitor’s IP address, to the server providing that service. The service does not receive Twitch account information from visitors through this request. Processing is based on our legitimate interest in displaying the current stream status and aggregated activity data (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

5. Twitch and Ko-fi embeds

Content from Twitch and Ko-fi is not loaded automatically. It is loaded only after a visitor actively selects the corresponding load button. When enabled, the visitor’s browser establishes a direct connection to the selected provider. The provider then receives technical connection data, including the IP address, and may store or access cookies or similar information on the visitor’s device.

The legal basis is the visitor’s consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and applicable rules on terminal-device access). Consent applies only to the current page visit, is not stored by this website, and can be withdrawn by using the unload control where provided or by reloading the page. Further information is available in the Twitch Privacy Notice and the Ko-fi Privacy Policy.

6. Contact by email

If you contact us by email, we process the information you provide, such as your email address, name, message and attachments, in order to respond to your enquiry and, where necessary, continue the business relationship.

This website contains links to external services, including Amazon, pCloud, Twitch, Ko-fi, YouTube, Discord and Linktree.
