Please check back from time to time to ensure you are aware of any changes in our privacy practices. Your continued use of our site will signify your acceptance of these changes.

GW does not require that visitors reveal any personally identifying information in order to access our main Web site though some information is required to participate in certain activities including:

  • Responding to online surveys or polls;
  • Purchasing items from the shop (include. credit card info.);
  • Participating in online contests or other promotions;
  • Sending us questions or comments, which may require personal information for a response;

Where appropriate, the option to allow us to share certain information with some of our promotional partners may also be provided. No information will be shared with outside parties if you tick the box indicating that you do not want this to happen.

Special note about children under the age of 13

GW encourages parents and guardians to spend time online with their children and take an active role to protect the privacy of their children. Parents and guardians should instruct their children never to give out real names, telephone numbers, addresses, etc or any other identifying information over the Internet without first getting their permission.

No information should be submitted or posted to any GW web-site by visitors under 13 years of age without the consent of their parent or guardian. If you are under 13 and you want to access some of the activities on your site (message boards, chat areas, the MUD, etc) which require registration then you will need to complete and return a consent form see our Parental Consent Form.

Cookies

Cookies are small pieces of electronic information which a Web site can store on a visitor's hard drive to track your movement within our web-site. This allows us to "personalise" the site to match your individual preferences. The use of cookies is standard on the Internet and many major Web sites use them.

We never store personally identifiable information in a cookie. You can choose to set your browser to notify you whenever you are sent a cookie. This gives you the option to decide whether or not to accept a cookie. Though having said this you will find that some areas, in particular our online store will not function properly if you do not instruct your computer to accept cookies.

Links

GW's web-sites carry a number of links to other sites operated by individuals and companies and over which GW has no control. These other sites may send their own cookies, request personal information or similar.

Safeguarding your personally identifiable information

We will only collect personally identifiable information to the extent deemed reasonably necessary to serve our legitimate business purposes, and we will maintain appropriate safeguards to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the information you have provided.

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online (e.g. on message boards, through email or in chat areas) that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information in online areas that are accessible to the public you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.

Review, correction and deletion of information from our files

GW will remove any information provided online by people of any age upon the request of that person or their parent or guardian. If for any reason you are concerned that the personal information maintained by Games Workshop is not correct, or you wish to have your name removed from our records, please contact us at Techpriest@Games-Workshop.com and we will happily review, update or remove information as appropriate.
