This information is processed to provide the website, maintain its security and stability, prevent misuse and analyse technical performance.

The legal basis for processing necessary to operate and secure the website is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interests).

Contact form

If you contact us using the contact form, we process the information you provide, including your name, email address and message, in order to respond to your enquiry.

Form submissions are processed through Squarespace and forwarded to our email account.

If your enquiry relates to an existing or potential contract, processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. For other enquiries, processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, as we have a legitimate interest in responding to messages sent to us.

We retain correspondence only for as long as necessary to deal with your enquiry, unless longer retention is required by law or necessary in connection with a contractual relationship.

Newsletter and email updates

You can voluntarily sign up to receive news, updates and information about Whodunit Games by email.

For this purpose, we process your email address. Newsletter subscriptions are managed through Squarespace.

We use a confirmation procedure so that you are asked to confirm your subscription by email.

The legal basis for sending newsletters is your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

You may withdraw your consent at any time, for example by using the unsubscribe link contained in our emails. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

Your email address will be retained for the purpose of sending the newsletter until you unsubscribe or otherwise withdraw your consent, subject to any legally required retention of evidence of consent.

This website uses cookies and similar technologies. Some cookies are technically necessary for the website to function, while others may be used for analytics or to understand how visitors use the website.

Technically necessary cookies may be used where required to provide the website or a function requested by you. Where consent is legally required for other cookies or similar technologies, they are used only after you have given your consent.

You can change or withdraw your cookie preferences at any time through the cookie settings available on this website.

Data recipients and international transfers

We may use service providers to operate the website and communicate with visitors, in particular our website hosting provider and email service provider.
