Cookie Policy (UK)

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Ping Online Communications Limited, trading as Ping Creates (“we”, “us” and “our”), uses cookies and similar technologies on https://pingcreates.com. It covers our website and browser-based experiences hosted on this domain. Separately distributed games and applications may have additional privacy information.

Our current website is built using static HTML, CSS and JavaScript. It no longer uses WordPress, WordPress administration cookies or the Complianz cookie-consent plugin.

2. What are cookies and similar technologies?

A cookie is a small file stored by your browser when you visit a website. Cookies can remember information about a visit or help a service work. Websites and browser games may also use local storage, which saves information in your browser without necessarily sending it to a server.

This policy refers to cookies and similar browser-storage technologies together. Loading website resources such as fonts, icons and scripts can also involve requests to other servers and the sharing of technical information, even when no cookie is placed. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal data.

3. Technologies used on this website

Our informational pages do not require a user account or shopping basket. The following technologies are relevant to features currently associated with the website:

4. Analytics, marketing and social links

Our website links to our social media profiles. Ordinary links do not, by themselves, add the social network’s cookies to our website. If you follow one of those links, the destination service may use cookies in accordance with its own policies.

We do not use the WordPress-based cookie-management or social-sharing features described in our previous policy. If we add analytics, advertising or other tracking technologies to the website, we will review this policy and provide any consent or objection controls required by UK law.

5. Embedded YouTube videos

YouTube is provided by Google. Using its privacy-enhanced player reduces certain personalisation uses, but does not mean that the player cannot access or store information on your device. You can read more in Google’s Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and information about cookies (https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies).

6. Managing your choices

You can block or delete cookies and locally stored website data using your browser’s privacy and site-data settings. Most browsers allow you to manage data for an individual website.

Deleting data for pingcreates.com may erase game high scores, player initials and saved preferences from that browser. Blocking third-party storage may affect the operation of embedded videos.

Where we use optional cookies or browser storage that require consent, we will ask for it before they are activated and provide a way to withdraw it. Where we rely on a legal exception that requires an opportunity to object, we will provide an appropriate option.

7. Your rights and our Privacy Policy

Where information connected with cookies or similar technologies is personal data, you may have rights under UK data protection law, including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, portability and withdrawal of consent where applicable. You can contact us using the details below, or complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at https://ico.org.uk/.

For more information about our use of personal data, please read our Privacy Policy at https://pingcreates.com/privacy/.
