This is our Privacy Policy and tells you what data we collect, why we collect and what we do with it. Our forum has always met the conditions of the various Data Protection Acts and our policy complies with the recommended ways to handle data enshrined in the 2018 General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We will not hold sensitive information about you or transfer information about you to third parties without your permission, and you may request at any time a copy of all the information we hold about you. We reserve the right, under GDPR, to charge a fee for any request that is manifestly unfounded, excessive or repetitive. For details of how to obtain this information, see below under Access to personal information.
Lawful basis

We use YouTube and other similar services to provide you with a way to follow us and get information such as offers and new releases. As these services are provided on external third-party websites, any links to or from them, and their usage and policies are fully the responsibility of those third-party websites.
We have taken all reasonable steps to ensure that our website is secure and that all sensitive information transmitted through it is sent securely and held confidentially. Any third parties or agents that we may use to process this sensitive information on our behalf have also taken all reasonable security steps. The only exceptions to the above are where we may take appropriate and reasonable steps in the prevention of criminal and fraudulent activity.

Cookies, analytical services and social media
Our website uses Internet technology to track the patterns of behaviour of visitors to our site. This can include using a cookie, which is a small piece of information sent by a Web server to a Web browser. It enables the server to collect information back from the browser. We use cookies for a number of reasons, such as keeping track of your purchases and basket contents so as you can move between pages; those are created by our website and contain no identifiable information, either financial or personal. If you disable cookies, you may find that our website will not function correctly and you will not be able to purchase products from our website. You can find details of how to disable cookies in your web browser’s help section.
We work with a number of trusted third parties, all of which may use cookies, web beacons and other internet technologies (collectively cookies) as part of their service, including:
Google Analytics; this is a statistical and analytics service used widely across the web by a large number of sites. The service allows us to see aggregate information on statistics such as how many visitors we are getting to the website, where in the world they are located (based on Google’s understanding of where your internet connection may be – we cannot see exact location details), what pages are most visited, referring sites, and other reporting information that helps us analyse the usage of our website and services. You can opt out of Google Analytics (on all websites, not just ours) by using their currently available opt out options.
All of these services allow us to continue providing our products and services to you in an efficient manner. We are unable to get any personally identifiable information from these services, and the only way we can get such information is if you supply it to us.
Contacting you
We will never contact you unless we have received your express consent to do so. This has always been our policy at Dogs Of War Vu. If we send you an e-mail it will be because:
1. You opted in to receive news and information.
2. You signed up to receive game updates from us.
3. You have contacted us to request technical support, which, by definition, implies that you are consenting to us replying.
We have never had any automatic opt in functions. If we contact you, it is because you have given us your permission.
You can unsubscribe at any time by following the link at the bottom of every email we send.
We will also monitor any emails sent to us, including file attachments, for viruses or malicious software. Please be aware that you have a responsibility to ensure that any email you send is within the bounds of the law.
Forum support
We will only use the personal information we collect to process the query and to check on the level of service we provide.
We will keep user information until your account is removed.
Similarly, where enquiries are submitted to us we will only use the information supplied to us to deal with the enquiry and any subsequent issues and to check on the level of service we provide.
Access to personal information
Individuals can find out if we hold any personal information on them by making a subject access request under the Data Protection Act 1998. We only log your i.p. address, first name and username securely, in your account. This follows the GDPR recommendation that if we hold information about you we should:
Give you a description of it
Say why we are holding it and who it could be disclosed to
Give you access to a copy of the information
GDPR includes a best practice recommendation that, where possible, organisations should be able to provide remote access to a secure self-service system which would provide the individual with direct access to his or her information (Recital 63)..
Please check back frequently to see any updates or changes to our privacy policy.
