Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Respawnews ("we", "the site") collects, uses, stores and protects personal data of visitors to playeronenews.com/respawnews.com ("you"). By using the site, you agree to the practices described here. If you disagree, we recommend you do not continue browsing.

2. Who is the data controller

Respawnews is operated by TOFUS STUDIO TECNOLOGIA E ENTRETENIMENTO LTDA, Brazilian company registry (CNPJ) 65.899.057/0001-10, headquartered at Rua/Av 818, Campos do Iguaçu, Foz do Iguaçu - PR, Brazil, ZIP 85857-630. For anything related to this policy, use the contact in section 16.

3. What data we collect

• Navigation data: pages visited, time on page, referral source, device and browser type, IP address (anonymized/aggregated by Google Analytics).
• Voluntarily provided data: if you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect the email address you provide.
• Cookies and similar technologies: used to remember preferences (such as your consent choice) and, with your consent, for audience analytics.

We do not collect sensitive data (health, racial origin, political opinions, etc.) and we do not request identification documents.

4. How and why we use data

• Consent: to enable analytics cookies (Google Analytics) — only activated after you click "Accept" on the cookie banner.
• Legitimate interest: to keep the site secure and technically functional, and to understand, in aggregate, which content readers care about.
• Contract performance: to send the newsletter to those who voluntarily subscribed.

5. Cookies

Cookies are small files stored in your browser. We use two categories:

• Necessary: store only your cookie-banner choice (accept or reject). These cannot be disabled since they are essential to the banner itself working.
• Analytics (Google Analytics): only activated after you click "Accept". Help us understand, in aggregate, how many people visit the site and which pages are most read.

Once the site starts showing ads via Google AdSense, advertising cookies will also exist and will be handled by the same consent mechanism described here.

You can change your choice at any time by clicking "Cookie settings" in the site footer, or by clearing cookies in your own browser.

6. Sharing with third parties

We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with service providers that help operate the site:

• Google Analytics (Google LLC): audience analytics, subject to consent.
• Google AdSense (Google LLC): advertising — not active yet, listed here for transparency about the site's future plans.
• Vercel Inc.: site hosting and delivery.
• Sanity.io: storage of the site's editorial content (does not store visitor data).

7. International data transfers

The providers listed in section 6 may process data on servers outside Brazil (United States and other countries). These transfers follow the safeguards required by Brazilian data protection law (LGPD art. 33), including contractual clauses and certifications adopted by these providers.

8. Data retention

Analytics data is kept per Google Analytics' default configuration (typically up to 14 months). Newsletter emails are kept while you remain subscribed and can be removed at any time upon request or via the unsubscribe link in the email itself.

9. Your rights (Brazilian LGPD)

Under Brazil's General Data Protection Law (LGPD, Law 13.709/2018), you have the right to:

• Confirmation that data processing exists.
• Access to your data.
• Correction of incomplete, inaccurate or outdated data.
• Anonymization, blocking or deletion of unnecessary or unlawfully processed data.
• Portability of your data to another provider.
• Information about who we share your data with.
• Withdrawal of consent at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, email contato@studiostofus.com. You may also file a complaint with Brazil's National Data Protection Authority (ANPD).

10. Additional rights for EU visitors

If you access the site from the European Union, we also honor the rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR): access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, portability, objection, and the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority in your country.

11. Advertising and Google AdSense

The site does not yet show Google AdSense ads, but plans to. Once it does, third-party advertising cookies will only load after your consent, through the same banner described in section 5. To learn more about how Google uses data for advertising, see Google's privacy policy and ad settings at adssettings.google.com.

12. Sponsored content and affiliate links

The site may publish sponsored content, always labeled "Publi", and may include affiliate links (a purchase made through the link may generate a commission for the site, at no extra cost to you). This practice is already disclosed in the footer of every page.

13. Data security

We adopt reasonable technical measures (HTTPS, infrastructure providers with security certifications) to protect processed data. No system is 100% immune to incidents, and we commit to notifying authorities and affected individuals in case of a relevant incident, as required by applicable law.

14. Children's privacy

The site is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from that age group. If you are a parent/guardian and believe a child has provided us personal data, please contact us so we can remove it.

15. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy periodically. The date at the top of the page reflects the latest version. Significant changes will be highlighted on the page itself.

16. Contact
