What we collect, why, and what we send onward.
This policy has not yet been reviewed by counsel. It describes our actual practice; it is not legal advice.
Who is responsible
TierBuff operates tierbuff.com and is the controller of the data described here. Contact: contact@tierbuff.com.
What we collect
- Technical logs. Request metadata handled by our infrastructure provider — IP address, user agent, requested URL, timestamp — used for security and abuse prevention.
- Analytics. Aggregate usage measurement loaded through Google Tag Manager when configured.
- Outbound click counts. When you follow a commercial link, we record that the click happened, when, the referring page, the button used, the country reported by our network, whether a fallback route was used and why it was required, any ad click identifiers and campaign ID described below, and the exact destination link.
The click identifier
Commercial links leave this site through our own redirect. Each click is given a randomly generated identifier, which is transmitted to the destinationin the link, together with the name of the button you used, so that a referral we are paid for can be reconciled against the partner's statement.
If you arrived from an advertisement, the redirect also passes the ad click identifiers that advertisement placed in your landing URL (Google, Meta or TikTok) and the Google Ads campaign ID. They are read from the tb_attrcookie described in our cookie notice, from the advertising platform's own first-party cookies, or from the page you clicked on, and are recorded with the click. The partner uses them to report a resulting install back to the advertising platform that showed you the ad. The destination may associate the click with what it observes afterwards; that is the purpose it exists for, and it is why this is a disclosure and not a footnote.
Legal bases (GDPR Art. 6)
- Legitimate interest — Art. 6(1)(f), for security, abuse prevention, aggregate site measurement, and measuring referrals we are paid for.
Recipients
Our hosting and network provider and analytics providers process requests on our behalf. Game publishers, stores and our affiliate partner receive the identifiers described above when you follow a commercial link; the partner reports installs to the advertising platform whose ad brought you here. We do not sell personal data.
Transfers outside the EEA
Our infrastructure is globally distributed, so requests may be handled outside the EEA under the safeguards our provider maintains.
Retention
Technical logs are retained by our provider under their own schedule. Outbound click records, including the click identifier, are retained for 24 months, which is the window in which a referral can still be queried or reconciled.
Profiling and automated decisions
We do not profile you and we make no automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects (GDPR Art. 22). The click identifier described above and any ad click identifiers described above are single-purpose: they reconcile one referral and its install report, and they are not used to build a picture of you. Nothing on this site is personalised to the individual reader.
Children
This site is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 16, and we do not serve advertising of any kind, targeted or otherwise. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, write tocontact@tierbuff.com and we will delete it.
California residents
We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the CPRA, and we run no cross-context behavioural advertising — so there is no "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" mechanism to offer, because there is nothing it would switch off. California residents may still request to know, delete, or correct personal information we hold, and we will not discriminate against anyone for exercising those rights.
Your rights
You may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or object to processing based on legitimate interest. Write tocontact@tierbuff.com. You may also complain to your national supervisory authority.
