Privacy Policy
Last updated: 5 October 2026
This Privacy Policy covers personal information associated with your use of BlockBlast.co.uk and your communications with us. It explains the website’s own activities, the involvement of external services and how to raise a privacy concern.
Who we are
The website operator is BlockBlast.co.uk, a game studio based in the United Kingdom. In this policy, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to BlockBlast.co.uk.
For questions about this policy or your personal information, email [email protected]. You can also use our Contact Us page.
BlockBlast.co.uk is responsible for the personal information it decides how and why to use. Other providers may be separately responsible for information they collect through their own services, as explained below.
Information you provide
Messages and support enquiries
When you email us or use the contact form, the information you provide can include your name, email address, message and any attachments. This information is used to understand and respond to your enquiry, investigate the problem you report or deal with your request.
A screenshot or message can contain more personal information than you intend to share. Please remove unnecessary details before sending it. Do not send passwords, payment-card details or identity documents with an initial enquiry.
Comments and account features
Where you use an available comment or account feature, the information involved depends on what you submit. This can include your chosen username, contact details, comment text or account information.
Information submitted for public display, such as a comment and the name shown with it, can be seen and copied by other visitors. Keep private information out of public contributions. You can contact us about a contribution or account using the email address above.
Choosing not to supply information needed for a particular request or feature may prevent that request from being answered or the feature from working. For example, a reply email address is needed if you want an email response.
Information involved in loading the website
Opening a website involves connections between your browser and the servers providing its pages and resources. Those connections involve technical information such as an IP address and request details. The information available to a service can also include browser information, the resource requested and diagnostic details.
Technical information can be used to deliver content, investigate errors and protect services against abuse. Which organisation receives it depends on whether the resource is supplied by BlockBlast.co.uk or an external provider.
Reasons and legal bases for using information
For activities under our control, the relevant bases depend on the purpose:
- Legitimate interests: responding to ordinary enquiries, considering corrections and reports, administering website features, and protecting the website against misuse. These interests must be balanced against your rights and freedoms; they do not override them automatically.
- Legal obligations: handling data-protection requests and other processing required by an applicable legal duty.
- Consent: where consent is required for a particular activity. It must be a separate, informed choice and can be withdrawn.
Using the website or reading this policy is not, by itself, consent to optional tracking or every use of personal information. A lawful basis for processing personal information does not automatically remove a separate requirement for consent to device storage or access.
Embedded games, videos and third-party services
The website includes a game player loading from BlockBlast.co.uk and an embedded YouTube video. The game wrapper also loads a web resource from cdn.tailwindcss.com. These resources connect your browser to services outside the blockblast.co.uk domain.
External services can receive information when their content loads or when you interact with it. Their own privacy notices explain the information they collect, their purposes, retention arrangements and available choices. For YouTube, see Google’s Privacy Policy.
For the game and any further services presented within it, review the privacy information available through the relevant provider’s website or interface. If you cannot identify a provider or find its notice, contact us with the page address and a description of the feature.
The separate Block Blast! mobile app and its app-store services are covered by their respective providers’ privacy information. This policy does not describe the mobile app’s internal data handling.
Third-party advertising
Advertising supplied by third parties is covered by the relevant advertising provider’s privacy and advertising policies. Depending on the provider and your choices, advertising technologies may involve device identifiers, information about an advert being displayed or clicked, and activity used for measurement or personalisation.
Use the privacy information and controls supplied by the provider identified in the advert or service to understand its practices. An advert’s destination may also have its own privacy policy.
Third-party policies supplement this notice. They do not remove BlockBlast.co.uk’s responsibility for processing it or for obligations that apply to technologies included on its website.
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies, local storage and session storage are ways to keep information on a device. Scripts and similar technologies can also access information from it. Their purpose can include operating a feature, remembering a setting or supporting measurement and advertising.
The website’s WordPress code includes session-storage logic for remembering browser emoji-support test results. Embedded services can involve additional storage and access technologies governed by the relevant purposes and provider arrangements.
Under applicable UK rules, technologies that require consent must not be used before that consent is obtained. Any reliance on a statutory exception must meet its conditions, including providing information and an objection mechanism where required. This policy does not itself activate a consent mechanism or change your browser settings.
You can use your browser settings to inspect, restrict or delete stored site data. Clearing it can remove preferences or progress where these are saved locally. Restricting external content can also affect whether a game or video loads. These browser controls are separate from the website’s legal obligations.
For a question about storage or tracking on a particular page, email [email protected]. Include the page address and the service or cookie concerned, if known.
Who can receive information?
Website hosting and email services handle information as part of delivering pages and communications. External game, video and advertising services can receive information through their own content. Public contributions can be seen by other visitors.
A complaint or rights report may also involve disclosure where necessary to assess the issue, obtain professional advice or meet a legal requirement. Any disclosure by BlockBlast.co.uk must have an appropriate legal basis and be limited to what is needed for the purpose.
Where another organisation processes information on our behalf, using a supplier does not transfer our own data-protection responsibilities to that supplier. Where a provider acts independently, its privacy notice explains its separate processing.
How long information is kept
For information under BlockBlast.co.uk’s control, retention must be connected to the reason for keeping it. The relevant criteria are:
- Whether an enquiry, complaint or privacy request has been resolved, and whether a record remains necessary to deal with related follow-up.
- Whether information is still needed to operate a feature you use, such as an account or published contribution, where available.
- Whether records are needed to investigate a security issue or establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.
- Whether an applicable law requires particular records to be kept.
Personal information should not be retained merely because it might be useful at an unspecified future time. Information no longer needed for a valid purpose must be deleted or made anonymous, subject to applicable requirements.
Other providers set retention arrangements for information they control; consult their policies for those details. The expiry of a cookie does not necessarily determine how long a related server record is kept. Contact us if you need information about retention of a particular record associated with this website.
International processing
Some external providers operate internationally. Their privacy notices explain the countries or regions involved and their arrangements for transferring information.
Where BlockBlast.co.uk makes a transfer subject to UK restricted-transfer rules, a valid transfer mechanism or applicable exception is required. Acceptance of this policy is not a substitute for those requirements. You can contact us about the recipient, location and relevant safeguards for a particular disclosure involving information under our control.
Security
Data-protection law requires appropriate measures to protect personal information. No online service can guarantee absolute security, so please take care with the information you send and keep any account credentials private.
If you believe personal information has been exposed through this website, email [email protected]. Explain where the problem appears without unnecessarily repeating the exposed information.
Children’s information
Children’s personal information requires particular care. Parents and guardians should read our Information for Parents and review the game, external content and any forms before a child uses them.
Children should avoid placing identifying details in public comments and ask a trusted adult before sharing information through a form. Parental guidance does not replace the operator’s own responsibilities under applicable data-protection law.
If you believe a child has provided personal information that should not have been collected or displayed, contact us. Start with the minimum details needed to locate the issue. Where parental consent is legally required for consent-based processing, that requirement must be met; this policy is not itself an age check or parental-consent process.
Your privacy rights
Depending on the processing and the applicable legal conditions, you may have rights to:
- Access personal information held about you.
- Have inaccurate information corrected.
- Request deletion or restriction of processing.
- Receive certain information in a portable format.
- Withdraw consent for processing that relies on it.
- Exercise applicable safeguards concerning automated decision-making.
Your right to object
You may object to processing based on legitimate interests on grounds relating to your situation. You may object to direct marketing at any time. These rights are separate from asking for an error in your information to be corrected.
To request information under our control, email [email protected]. Explain the request and the relevant interaction, account or contribution, where applicable. Any request for proof of identity or authority must be proportionate. Statutory response periods apply.
You can also contact that address to withdraw consent given to BlockBlast.co.uk. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before it. For consent given directly to an independent provider, use its own controls or contact route.
Rights are not absolute: a request may be subject to a legal exception, for example where a record must be retained by law. A refusal or restriction must have a lawful reason.
Complaints
If you have a concern about our handling of personal information, contact us at [email protected].
You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office through its complaints service. Contacting us does not prevent you from using that route.
Changes to this policy
Revisions will be shown on this page with an updated date. Any additional notice or fresh consent required by law must still be provided or obtained; updating a policy alone does not authorise a new use of personal information.
