Privacy Policy

Updated on September 1, 2025.

Purpose and Overview

Minegiftcraft is an independent platform dedicated to creating and sharing informational content about mobile and general gaming. Through our website, https://minegiftcraft.com, you’ll find reviews, gameplay tips, app guides, and platform overviews designed to help you understand the games you play and discover new titles that fit your interests.

Protecting your privacy is one of our core commitments. This Privacy Policy explains how personal information may be collected, used, stored, and protected when you interact with our platform. Our intention is to be fully transparent so that you know exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we keep it safe.

In the following sections, we outline—in plain language and within the framework of applicable U.S. privacy laws—how Minegiftcraft handles personal information while you browse and interact with our content. If you ever have questions or concerns about how your data is managed, you can reach us directly at https://minegiftcraft.com/contact

Policy Scope

This Privacy Policy covers all personal information collected as you read, browse, or engage with any features hosted on https://minegiftcraft.com. Interactions may include reading our articles, submitting feedback through contact forms, or using embedded features and tools available on the site.

Our privacy practices apply only to Minegiftcraft and the way we handle information internally. Please be aware that our site may include links to external resources such as app stores, developer websites, or third-party guides. We are not responsible for how these external sites collect, use, or store your information. If you choose to share personal data on any third-party platform, we strongly encourage you to review their privacy policies first to understand how your information will be treated.

User Consent

By continuing to use Minegiftcraft, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted the practices outlined in this Privacy Policy. Your use of our website, tools, and content means you consent to how we collect and manage personal information as described here.

Accessing Minegiftcraft also implies agreement with our Terms of Use. If you do not agree with any part of this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Use, we recommend that you discontinue using the site. Choosing to keep browsing and interacting with our content is understood as voluntary and informed consent.

Use of AI Tools

To maintain consistent quality and structure in our articles, Minegiftcraft may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools during the early stages of content development. These tools help with drafting, organizing information about games, and simplifying complex descriptions.

However, every article published on Minegiftcraft is reviewed and approved by a human editor. Our editorial team verifies facts, ensures clarity, and makes sure each piece aligns with our publishing standards. AI tools serve only as assistants in the process—they do not replace human judgment or responsibility.

We believe transparency is essential. If you want to know more about how AI supports our editorial workflow, feel free to contact us directly through https://minegiftcraft.com/contact

I. Data Gathering Practices

Minegiftcraft follows a responsible, transparent approach to information handling. To keep the site functional, protect visitor access, and improve the features we offer, certain data must be collected. That information arrives through three primary channels: details you choose to share with us, technical data automatically transmitted by your device, and limited inputs supplied by reputable third-party providers.

A. INFORMATION SUPPLIED VOLUNTARILY

Most areas of Minegiftcraft can be explored without revealing personal details. However, a handful of optional features—such as e-mail updates, notification services, or interactive utilities—require basic identifying data. When engaging with those features, you may be asked for your name, e-mail address, telephone number, or approximate region. We request only what is necessary to confirm your access, deliver the service you requested, or tailor certain elements of the site to your preferences.

If you contact us through the support form, submit survey responses, or provide feedback, the content of that communication is used solely to reply to you, resolve an issue, or refine our editorial approach. We do not employ such information for unrelated marketing, nor do we sell it to third parties.

B. INFORMATION COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY

Each time you browse Minegiftcraft, our systems record technical data essential to maintaining performance and diagnosing problems. Typical items include your IP address, browser and device type, operating-system version, date and time of access, and the sequence of pages you view. These details are captured through server log files, cookies, and analytical scripts.

Cookies and web beacons help the platform recognise returning browsers, remember display preferences, and evaluate article popularity—for instance, identifying which guides receive the most traffic or how long readers spend on a particular page. Such insights allow us to resolve errors promptly and optimise content layout across multiple devices.

You may disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Doing so, however, might affect certain conveniences—such as retaining language choices or keeping you signed in to a subscription area. Continued use of our site without altering those settings signifies consent to the cookie practices described in this notice.

C. INFORMATION SOURCED FROM THIRD PARTIES

To support operations and keep the website free of charge, Minegiftcraft cooperates with select advertising networks and analytics vendors. These partners may embed their own cookies, pixels, or tracking code on our pages to capture non-identifying metrics such as browser configuration, approximate geography, visit duration, or ad impressions. The purpose is to gauge overall engagement levels and present advertisements likely to be relevant to a broad audience.

Personal information—such as your name, e-mail address, or phone number—is never shared directly with advertisers. Moreover, we have no control over how those partners manage any data they do collect. Their practices are governed by their respective privacy policies. Clicking an advertisement does not create a contractual relationship between you and Minegiftcraft; any interaction with an external party occurs under that party’s own terms.

Major providers, including Google, may rely on cookies to display interest-based advertising. If you prefer not to receive such ads, you can adjust settings through your Google account or consult the provider’s privacy statement for opt-out instructions.

We encourage all users to review the policies of any external services referenced or linked on our pages. This Privacy Notice applies solely to data collected through Minegiftcraft and does not extend to the practices of third-party platforms.

II. Mobile Communication Consent

A. CONSENT TO RECEIVE SMS COMMUNICATIONS

At Minegiftcraft, we value your privacy and are committed to transparency in all communications, including mobile messaging. In accordance with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and other applicable U.S. regulations, we will never send SMS (text) messages without your clear, affirmative consent.

If you choose to provide your mobile phone number—such as through a contact form, feedback request, or interactive feature—you may be presented with the option to receive SMS updates from Minegiftcraft. This option will always include a clear explanation of the type of messages you might receive, along with a mechanism (such as an unchecked box or explicit consent prompt) allowing you to voluntarily opt in.

By opting in, you authorize Minegiftcraft to send occasional SMS notifications. These may include updates about new gaming articles, site features, content alerts, or general announcements relevant to our platform. Opting in to SMS messaging is entirely optional. You are never required to share your phone number or subscribe to text communications in order to access or use any part of the Minegiftcraft website.

We will not use your mobile number for any purpose outside the scope of your consent, and we will never sell or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.

B. WITHDRAWING CONSENT

You may opt out of receiving SMS messages from Minegiftcraft at any time. To stop receiving text notifications, simply reply to any message with the word “STOP”. Once we receive your opt-out request, we will promptly remove your number from our messaging list.

If you experience any issues unsubscribing or wish to update your communication preferences manually, you may contact us directly at https://minegiftcraft.com/contact. Our team will ensure your request is handled without delay or complication.

Minegiftcraft complies fully with U.S. federal communications law, including all TCPA guidelines. Opting out is always free, and you will never be penalized or restricted from using the site for choosing not to receive SMS messages.

We are committed to respecting your choices and protecting your personal information across all forms of communication.

III. Why We Collect and How We Use Your Information

At Minegiftcraft, every piece of data collected has a defined purpose. Our goal is to offer a safe, efficient, and user-focused experience while ensuring that your privacy remains protected. We use the information we collect to maintain the platform, better understand our audience, and adapt to user needs without compromising confidentiality.

3.1 Ensuring Platform Stability and Functionality

We rely on technical data to keep the site operating effectively across different devices and browsers. Information such as your browser version, screen resolution, and loading speed helps us identify performance issues, resolve technical glitches, and improve compatibility. These insights allow us to deliver a faster and more stable user experience.

3.2 Adapting Content to User Interaction

Usage patterns help us recognise how visitors navigate and engage with our pages. By observing what content is viewed and how users interact with features, we can reorganise layouts, highlight relevant sections, and tailor the site’s structure in ways that feel intuitive and supportive.

3.3 Monitoring Engagement to Improve Clarity

We examine behaviour metrics like scroll depth, page duration, and click activity to assess how effectively our content communicates. These analytics reveal where users are finding value—and where they may be losing interest—so we can refine our content to make it clearer and more impactful.

3.4 Developing and Refining Site Features

Insights gathered from site interactions and voluntary feedback guide our ongoing improvements. Whether it’s enhancing navigation, redesigning pages, or introducing new utilities, all upgrades are based on the actual needs and behaviours of our readers.

3.5 Handling Direct Communication

When you reach out through a form or feedback tool, the information you provide enables us to respond appropriately. We may use your message to address a technical issue, clarify a concern, or follow up to ensure your query was resolved to your satisfaction.

3.6 Email Communications and Notifications

If you opt into our mailing list, we may occasionally send you platform news, article recommendations, or other relevant updates. Every email includes a clear unsubscribe link, giving you full control over whether or not to continue receiving messages from us.

3.7 Strengthening Security and Preventing Abuse

We use collected data to detect irregular usage, prevent fraudulent activity, and protect the platform against misuse. Behavioural signals and system alerts help us safeguard both the website’s integrity and the safety of our users.

Our approach to data use is grounded in accountability, necessity, and respect. We apply strict internal standards and regularly evaluate our methods to ensure that user trust is upheld and privacy obligations are met.

Cookie Notice for Minegiftcraft

This notice explains how Minegiftcraft, available at https://minegiftcraft.com/, employs cookies, what information those cookies collect, how they enhance your visit, and the choices you have regarding their use. It also clarifies the consequences that may follow if certain cookies are restricted or removed.

What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your computer, phone, or tablet when you visit. They store information about your activity and preferences so that the site can recognise your device during later sessions. Like many modern online services, Minegiftcraft relies on cookies to deliver an efficient, personalised, and secure experience.

Why We Use Cookies

Cookies enable the platform to remember returning visitors and retain settings such as language or layout, ensure smoother navigation, and measure page responsiveness. They also help us understand how articles and tools are being used, which guides improvements to structure and performance. In addition, certain cookies strengthen security by spotting irregular behaviour that may signal malicious activity. Advertising cookies permit us to present promotional content that aligns more closely with broad user interests.

Categories of Cookies Employed

  1. Essential cookies keep core functions running. They allow pages to load correctly, support secure log-in procedures, and ensure that the platform operates as intended. Without these files, basic site features may become unavailable.
  1. Preference cookies store individual choices such as language selection, region, or interface configuration. By recalling these settings, the site feels more familiar each time you return.
  1. Analytics cookies collect aggregated statistics about visitor behaviour. Metrics such as time spent on an article, clicks on specific links, or frequency of page visits help us refine content and identify technical faults that could impact usability.
  1. Security cookies monitor usage patterns to detect suspicious actions, protect user accounts, and respond promptly to potential threats, thereby safeguarding the integrity of the platform.
  1. Advertising cookies record anonymous data about how advertisements are displayed and interacted with. They help gauge campaign effectiveness while allowing our partners to present content that is generally relevant. Some advertising partners place their own cookies, and their data practices are explained in their individual privacy policies.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

Most internet browsers give you the ability to inspect, block, or delete cookies whenever you wish. Disabling essential cookies can prevent certain areas of the platform from functioning, while restricting preference cookies may stop the site from remembering your settings, leading to a less tailored experience. Opting out of analytics cookies can reduce the accuracy of insights we rely on for performance upgrades. Blocking advertising cookies will not remove adverts entirely, but the messages you see may be less aligned with your interests.

To adjust your settings, consult the help section of your chosen browser for detailed instructions. Being informed about how cookies work empowers you to balance privacy considerations with the convenience offered by Minegiftcraft’s key features.

Cookies in Use on Minegiftcraft

Cookies are an important part of how Minegiftcraft delivers a reliable, secure, and user-friendly experience. Below is a breakdown of the types of cookies active on our platform and their intended purpose.

Login and Account Management Cookies

These cookies support user authentication processes, help maintain login sessions across pages, and allow for smooth navigation once you’re signed in. If you’ve created an account or logged into a user-specific section, these cookies ensure the site recognises your session. Most are cleared upon logout, though some may remain briefly to retain settings that improve your next visit.

Email Subscription Cookies

When you sign up for email updates or newsletters, cookies are used to manage those preferences. They track your interaction with previous communications and help determine the frequency or relevance of future updates. This ensures that the emails you receive reflect your interests and engagement level.

Form and Survey Participation Cookies

To simplify your participation in surveys or form-based features, cookies store temporary responses and prevent repeat submissions. This helps streamline the process, avoid duplication, and may retain form data briefly to save you time during follow-up interactions.

Interface and Preference Cookies

These cookies retain visual and layout preferences such as language settings, theme options, or preferred content views. They are designed to create a consistent experience each time you access the site, adapting the interface to your previous selections without requiring you to reconfigure anything.

External Service Cookies

We collaborate with third-party service providers to assist with analytics, system performance, and advertising. These providers may set their own cookies within our environment in order to deliver specific functions. Minegiftcraft does not control the content of those cookies, but they serve essential roles in site functionality.

Analytics and Usage Tracking Cookies

Cookies from platforms like Google Analytics collect general data on how users interact with the site, including time on page, navigation patterns, and areas of interest. This aggregated information helps us monitor technical performance and refine content to better meet user expectations. To learn how Google processes this data, please consult their public documentation.

Feature Testing and Development Cookies

When rolling out new features or making updates, temporary cookies are used to monitor how those changes perform. These cookies track user interaction during test phases and assist in identifying issues before full implementation, helping us maintain overall site stability.

Advertising and Interest-Based Cookies

Certain cookies from advertising partners allow the display of promotions that are more likely to align with user interests. These may track general browsing behaviour to improve ad relevance and help measure campaign performance. You can manage your ad preferences through your browser settings or use tools like Google’s Ad Settings or www.aboutads.info to tailor or opt out of interest-based ads.

Managing Your Cookie Settings

Please be aware that disabling or removing cookies—especially those essential to platform operations—may affect how the site functions.

IV. Protection of Personal Information

At Minegiftcraft, safeguarding your personal information is a core responsibility. We do not sell, lease, or exchange your personal data with third parties under any circumstances. In limited cases, we may share non-identifiable, aggregated data with selected partners for analytical purposes, such as enhancing platform features, evaluating performance, or understanding user trends. This shared information contains no personal identifiers and cannot be traced back to any individual.

You may opt out of this type of anonymous data usage at any point. If you wish to adjust your preferences or request additional information about how data is handled, you can do so by contacting us through the form available at https://minegiftcraft.com/contact.   

We apply multiple layers of protection to help keep personal data secure. These measures include the use of encrypted protocols for data transmission, role-based access restrictions within our team, and continuous monitoring for unusual or unauthorised system activity. Security settings are regularly reviewed, and we carry out internal assessments to close vulnerabilities and improve defence mechanisms.

Although we make every effort to protect user data, no digital platform is completely immune to risks. If a security breach or unauthorised access were to occur, Minegiftcraft will respond swiftly to investigate the incident, contain the impact, and follow all required procedures. If your personal data is affected, we will notify you promptly and provide clear guidance on protective steps you can take.

Our approach to privacy protection is not limited to system security. It also reflects the respect we have for every individual who uses our platform. Maintaining the trust of our readers is essential, and we remain fully committed to offering a secure, transparent, and privacy-conscious space for all users of Minegiftcraft.

V. Exercising Your Privacy Rights

5.1 Your Rights as a User

At Minegiftcraft, we believe every user has the right to understand how their personal data is collected, used, and stored. Whether you visit the site without submitting any personal details or interact through contact forms or subscriptions, you have the right to access the information we may hold about you.

You may also request corrections, place restrictions on how your data is processed, or ask for the removal of certain information entirely. While we aim to accommodate these requests, please note that in some situations, we may be required to retain specific records for legal compliance, operational continuity, or legitimate security purposes.

We are committed to providing the tools, information, and support necessary for you to manage your privacy choices clearly and confidently. Our priority is not only compliance with applicable laws but also a user experience that respects control and transparency.

5.2 Data Retention and Deletion

We only retain personal data for as long as it serves a clear and legitimate function. This includes facilitating access to the platform, addressing user inquiries, ensuring technical integrity, and helping us improve how the site performs.

For instance, we may temporarily keep your contact information to follow up on previous communications or unresolved support issues. Likewise, technical data used for system monitoring may be stored briefly to detect and prevent future disruptions. Once this data no longer serves a direct purpose, it is securely deleted or anonymized to ensure it cannot be traced back to you.

If you would like your personal information removed from our records, you may send a request via our contact form at https://minegiftcraft.com/contact. We will review your submission promptly and follow up with confirmation once the process is complete. If certain data must be retained for legal or administrative reasons, we will inform you accordingly.

VI. Data Protection in the United States

California Privacy Laws – CCPA and CPRA

If you’re a resident of California, your personal data is protected under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). These laws apply to websites that collect user information — including indirect data like IP addresses or activity tracked through cookies and third-party tools.

As a content-driven platform, Minegiftcraft may collect limited technical and behavioral information for analytics and performance optimization. Under these laws, we are obligated to give you control and visibility over how that information is used.

Colorado Privacy Act (CPA)

The Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) provides residents of Colorado with data protection rights similar to those in California and Virginia. It specifically addresses how websites like Minegiftcraft handle behavioral data collected through cookies, analytics tools, or advertising integrations.

Your Rights Under CPA:

  • Access, correct, or delete your personal data
  • Opt out of targeted advertising or profiling based on your behavior
  • Receive a portable copy of your data
  • Use browser privacy signals to communicate your opt-out preferences

Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) is a federal law that regulates the collection of personal data from children under 13.

Minegiftcraft is not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect or store personal data from users under the age of 13. Our content is written for a general audience, and we take all reasonable measures to avoid capturing data from minors.

Our COPPA Commitments:

  • We do not create content targeted at children under 13

As Minegiftcraft grows and adapts—whether by adding new features, expanding content, or responding to evolving technologies and privacy regulations—this Privacy Notice may be updated to reflect our most current data practices. Updates may also be made to improve clarity, address user feedback, or comply with changes in applicable U.S. state or federal privacy laws, including those in California (CCPA/CPRA), Virginia (VCDPA), or Colorado (CPA).

When revisions occur, the most recent version of this Privacy Notice will always be posted on this page. If a change significantly affects the way we collect, use, or share your personal information, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you promptly—either through a notice on our website, an updated privacy banner, or another suitable method—so that you are fully informed.

We encourage all visitors to review this Privacy Notice periodically in order to understand how your personal information is managed. By continuing to use Minegiftcraft after updates are posted, you acknowledge and accept the revised terms.
