You can manage your cookie preferences using our Cookie Preference Center.

Introduction

We use cookies and similar technologies to help Green Man Gaming Bundles function smoothly and securely. These technologies allow us to understand how the site is used, measure performance, and ensure a reliable checkout experience.


By continuing to browse or interact with the site, you agree to our use of cookies as described in this policy.


You can update your preferences at any time using our Cookie Preference Center, accessible at the top of this page. For details on how we handle personal data, please see our Privacy Notice.


Do we use Cookies & Similar technologies?

We use cookies and other similar tracking technologies to ensure everyone who uses Green Man Gaming Bundles has the best possible experience. These technologies also help us keep your data safe and allows the Green Man Gaming Bundles website to remember things like your preferences or serve advertising to you via third-party websites. 

When you first visited our site, we asked for your preferences via our cookie banner. We only deploy non-essential cookies and tracking technologies (like marketing pixels or analytics storage) if you have given us your explicit consent. You can change your preferences at any time using the Cookie Preference Center at the top of this page.

When we refer to 'cookies' in this policy, we also mean similar technologies used to store data on your device or track your activity, including HTML5 Local Storage, Session Storage, web beacons, and pixels. Please see the Green Man Gaming Bundles Privacy Notice for more details on our data handling when accessing our websites.


What are Cookies and Similar technologies?

While we often use the word "cookie" as a catch-all term, we actually use a few different types of technology to make our website work effectively - these include the following:

1 - Cookies (HTTP Cookies)

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) by our website. They help us recognise you when you return and understand how you move through our store. They can also be placed on your device by on behalf of third parties to enable us to track and measure our advertising actitivties. There are two main types of cookies that we use:

  • Session Cookies, These expire as soon as you close your browser.
  • Persistent Cookies, These stay on your device for a set period of time (e.g., to remember you between visits).

You can find further information about the cookies we place on your device in the next section of this Policy.

2 - Web Storage (Session Storage & Local Storage)

This is a modern way for websites to store data directly in your browser. It’s faster and more secure than traditional cookies because the data isn't constantly sent back and forth to our servers.

  • Session Storage, This is information that your computer automatically deletes the moment you close your browser tab.
  • Local Storage, This is information that persists until deleted from local storage. We might use this for things such as keeping information between tabs and sessions.

3 - Pixels and Beacons

These are tiny, invisible images or snippets of code embedded in our website or emails. They act like "digital sensors" that can tell us if a certain page was visited or if an email was opened, for example. This helps us measure if our marketing is actually relevant to you and can be controlled by our Cookie Preference Center or via your browser settings.


Cookie Categories

We group the cookies we use into the following categories:

  • Strictly Necessary - Required for the site to function correctly — e.g. enabling secure checkout and core performance.
  • Performance (Analytics) - Help us understand how visitors use the site, including which pages are popular or where users drop off. May be first- or third-party cookies.
  • Functionality - Support embedded content (such as videos) or features that enhance your browsing experience.
  • Marketing - Allow us to measure the effectiveness of advertising on other platforms and may be used to show you relevant ads elsewhere. These are typically third-party cookies.


Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies (also known as targeting or advertising cookies) help us:

  • Measure how well our campaigns perform
  • Track visits that originate from ads
  • Support relevant advertising on other platforms

These cookies do not collect identifiable personal information like your name or email, but they may use browser identifiers or similar technologies.


Below is a list of the cookies we use, including their name, provider, duration, and category:

"Do Not Track" signals

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting to indicate that you prefer not to be tracked across websites. However, there is currently no industry standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, and as a result, Green Man Gaming Bundles does not respond to them.


Other Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use pixels, tags, and beacons to help us:

  • Evaluate the effectiveness of advertising
  • Understand visitor interaction with the site
  • Detect fraudulent activity or security threats
  • Produce anonymised analytics and performance reports

When your browser loads content from third-party services (e.g. for analytics or ads), those services may set their own cookies - governed by their own privacy policies.


Third-Party Cookies

Some third-party services we work with may also set cookies when you visit our site. These cookies may support embedded features, analytics tools, or marketing measurement. The third parties are responsible for the cookies they set.


Please refer to their respective privacy or cookie policies for more information.


Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage your cookie settings through your browser or via our Cookie Preference Center, accessible at the top of this page. Most browsers allow you to review, block, or delete cookies. Disabling some cookies may affect how the website works, including the checkout process.


When you opt out of certain cookies using our Cookie Preference Center, we will place a small cookie on your device to remember your preference.

Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. When we do, the revised version will be published on this page and will take effect immediately unless stated otherwise.


We will take reasonable steps to inform users of significant changes. Continued use of the Green Man Gaming Bundles website after any changes are posted will be considered acceptance of the revised policy.


If you do not agree with the updated terms, you should stop using the site. In the event of a conflict between this Cookie Policy and any other terms appearing elsewhere on the site, this policy will take precedence.
