Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 31, 2025

1. Overview

DosBoxGames.com ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what data is collected when you visit this site, how it is used, and what choices you have.

2. Data We Collect

We do not collect or store any personally identifiable information directly. However, the following third-party services may collect data when you use the site:

  • Google Analytics — collects anonymised usage data such as pages visited, session duration, and general geographic location (country/city level). No personally identifiable information is collected.
  • Google AdSense — may serve personalised advertisements based on your browsing history. AdSense uses cookies to measure ad performance and to show relevant ads.

3. Cookies

We use cookies solely through the third-party services listed above. When you first visit the site you will see a cookie consent banner. You may:

  • Accept — analytics and advertising cookies are enabled.
  • Reject — all non-essential cookies are blocked; only technically necessary cookies remain.

Your choice is stored in your browser's local storage under the key cookie-consent and can be changed at any time by clearing your site data or local storage, or by .

4. Legal Basis (GDPR)

We process analytics and advertising data only with your explicit consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)). Consent is obtained through the cookie banner before any tracking scripts are activated. You may withdraw consent at any time.

5. Data Retention

We do not store any personal data on our servers. Data retained by Google Analytics and Google AdSense is governed by Google's own retention policies. Analytics data is typically retained for up to 14 months by default.

6. Third-Party Links

The site may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies independently.

7. Your Rights

Under GDPR you have the right to:

  • Access data held about you
  • Request erasure of your data
  • Withdraw consent at any time
  • Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

Because we do not store personal data ourselves, most of these rights must be exercised directly with Google via their privacy tools.
