Your privacy, protected.

Our commitments
Privacy, by design
These are the principles behind every decision we make about your data.
We never sell your data
Your personal information is not a product. It will never be sold, rented, or traded to any third party for commercial purposes.
Minimal by design
We only collect what's genuinely needed. No surveillance, no profiling, no data hoarding — just what's necessary to work with you.
You're in control
Access, correct, or delete your data at any time. We'll respond to any request within 30 days — no runaround, no barriers.
Who we are
zoopbyte is the data controller responsible for personal data collected through this website.
We operate under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
What we collect
Only what's genuinely needed. Nothing more.
Contact form
Your name, email address, and the content of your message when you reach out to us.
Email correspondence
Your email address and message content when you contact us directly.
Analytics
Page visited, country, city, browser, OS, device type, referrer URL, time spent on each page, how far down the page was scrolled, and the sequence of pages visited in one session. A temporary anonymous session ID is stored in browser session storage (not a cookie — cleared automatically when the tab closes) to connect page visits within the same session. IP addresses are never stored and no data can be linked back to any individual.
SnakeIt leaderboard
A display name of your choosing (not verified or linked to any real identity) and your high score. These are stored and publicly visible on the leaderboard.
Cookies
One essential cookie is used to authenticate the site admin area. No tracking cookies are used. A temporary anonymous session ID is stored in browser session storage (not a cookie) to measure browsing patterns — this is cleared automatically when you close your tab and contains no personal data.
How we use it
Only for the purpose it was collected — no surprises.
