HKQS Games (the "Service") is operated by HK QS Technology Co., Limited, a company registered in Hong Kong with its registered office at RM 28, 2/F, BLK A, KWAI SHING IND BLDG PHASE 1, 36-40 TAI LIN PAI ROAD, KWAI CHUNG HONG KONG. We operate the website at www.hkqsgames.com and provide free, instant-play browser games.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use the Service, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. We have written it in plain language because we believe privacy information should be easy to understand, not hidden behind legal jargon.
By accessing or using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service. This policy does not apply to third-party websites or services that we link to — we are not responsible for their privacy practices.
2. Information We Collect
We aim to collect only the information we genuinely need to operate, improve, and protect the Service. We do not require you to create an account to play our games.
Information you provide directly
Contact messages: When you email aitaruan707@gmail.com or submit our contact form, we receive the name, email address, subject, and message content you provide.
Job applications: When you apply for a role, you choose what to share with us — typically a CV, cover note, and contact details.
Information collected automatically
Technical data: Browser type, device type, screen size, approximate geographic region (country-level), and the pages you visit. This helps us keep games running smoothly across devices.
Usage data: Which games are opened, session length, and basic interactions such as category filters used. We use this to understand which games are popular and where to focus improvements.
Cookies and similar technologies: See Section 4 below for details.
What we do not collect: We do not require account creation, we do not ask for your real name to play, and we do not collect payment information — all games on HKQS Games are free to play.
3. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
To operate the Service: Loading games, remembering your category preferences, and keeping the site functioning across sessions.
To improve our games: Aggregated usage data shows us which titles and levels are engaging, where players drop off, and what to fix next.
To respond to you: Replying to support requests, partnership inquiries, press questions, and job applications.
To display advertising: We serve ads through Google AdSense and similar networks. These partners may use cookies to show relevant ads. See Section 5 for details.
To protect the Service: Detecting and preventing abuse, fraud, and technical issues that could affect other players.
To comply with the law: Responding to lawful requests where we are required to do so.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your data to build profiles for purposes unrelated to the Service.
4. Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We use cookies and similar storage technologies for the following purposes:
Essential cookies: Required for the Service to function, such as remembering your cookie consent choice.
Functional cookies: Remember your preferred game category and recent activity to make the experience smoother.
Analytics cookies: Help us understand aggregate usage patterns so we can improve the Service.
Advertising cookies: Used by our advertising partners (such as Google AdSense) to display and measure ads. See Section 5.
When you first visit the Service, we show a cookie consent banner. You can choose to accept or refuse non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored locally on your device using localStorage. You can withdraw your consent at any time by clearing your browser storage for our domain.
Most browsers also let you control cookies through their settings. Disabling cookies may affect some features of the Service — for example, your category preference may not be remembered — but the games will continue to work.
5. Third-Party Advertising (Google AdSense)
We display advertising on the Service through Google AdSense and similar third-party advertising networks. These partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve and measure ads based on your visit to this and other websites.
How Google uses cookies
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info.
Ad transparency files
To support programmatic advertising transparency, we publish the following files at the root of our domain:
ads.txt — lists authorized digital sellers.
seller.json — provides contact and identifier information for sellers in the programmatic supply chain.
Third-party vendors: Google and other advertising partners are independent controllers of the data they collect through their cookies. Their use of your information is governed by their own privacy policies, not this one.
6. Data Retention
We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purpose it was collected:
Contact and application messages: Retained for up to 24 months so we can refer back to them in follow-up conversations, then deleted.
Technical and usage data: Aggregated and anonymized within a short period; raw data is retained for up to 13 months.
Cookie data: Stored on your device and removed when you clear your browser storage, unless you have consented to a longer advertising cookie retention.
Legal hold: We may retain specific records for longer where required by law or to defend against legal claims.
When retention periods expire, we either delete the data or anonymize it so it can no longer be linked to you.
7. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the following rights over your personal information:
Access: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
Correction: Ask us to fix inaccurate or incomplete information.
Deletion: Request that we delete your personal information, subject to legal retention obligations.
Restriction: Ask us to limit how we use your information in certain circumstances.
Portability: Receive your personal information in a structured, machine-readable format.
Objection: Object to our processing of your information, including for direct marketing.
Withdraw consent: Withdraw your consent to processing that relied on consent at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, please email aitaruan707@gmail.com from the address associated with your request. We will respond within 30 days. We may need to verify your identity before taking action.
8. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Our games are casual titles intended for a general audience.
If you are a parent or guardian and you believe we have collected information from your child, please contact us at aitaruan707@gmail.com and we will delete the information as soon as possible.
We do not knowingly allow third-party advertisers to target children on our Service. If you have concerns about advertising your child may have seen, please contact us and we will investigate.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit (HTTPS), access controls, and regular reviews of our systems. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
If we become aware of a data breach that affects you, we will notify you and the relevant authorities in accordance with applicable law.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If we make material changes, we may also notify you through a prominent notice on the Service.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of the Service after a change takes effect indicates your acceptance of the updated policy.
11. Contact Us
If you have any questions, concerns, or requests about this Privacy Policy or your personal information, please contact us. We aim to respond within two business days.
