Who we are

Email list

If you subscribe, we store your email address with our email provider, MailerLite, to send you the emails you signed up for. The legal basis is your consent. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and we delete your address within 30 days after you unsubscribe. We don't sell or share the list.

Price alerts

If you set a price alert, we store your email address, the handheld, the version and your target price, so we can email you when the price drops. The legal basis is your consent. We ask you to confirm the address before any alert is sent.

An unconfirmed alert is deleted after 7 days. An alert that has fired is deleted 30 days after the email went out. The link in any alert email deletes the alert right away. Alerts are stored in a Cloudflare database and sent through Cloudflare Email Service.

Joining the Black Friday list from the alert form is a separate choice and is off by default.

Browsing

The only cookies on the site are the Google Analytics cookies described below, and only after you accept them. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver and protect the site. Cloudflare is based in the US and certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

We count visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which sets no cookies and doesn't use your IP address to recognise you. We only see totals, such as page views, referring sites and countries, never individual people.

With your consent we also use Google Analytics 4, run by Google Ireland Limited, to see in more detail how visitors move around the site. Until you accept it in the cookie banner, it sets no cookies and Google receives only signals without an identifier, such as that a page was viewed. If you accept, it sets the cookies _ga and _ga_<id>, which hold a random identifier for up to two years. Google uses your IP address to estimate your country and city and doesn't store it. Event data linked to the identifier is kept for two months. Google may process it in the US under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

The legal basis for hosting and visit statistics is our legitimate interest in a secure, working site; for Google Analytics it is your consent. You can change your choice at any time under "Cookie settings" at the bottom of every page, and declining removes the cookies already set. Shops you visit through our links have their own privacy policies and may set their own cookies.

Emails you send us

Messages to contact@consolescout.com arrive in our Google (Gmail) mailbox, and we reply through Brevo. We keep them as long as we need them to handle your request.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete what we hold about you, restrict or object to its use, and withdraw consent at any time. Email contact@consolescout.com.

You can also complain to a data protection authority. Ours is the Polish Personal Data Protection Office (UODO). We don't sell data or make automated decisions about you.
