Privacy Policy
Introduction
At lonestar-models.com looking after your personal data is something we take seriously. This policy explains exactly what information we collect when you visit our gaming portal, why we need it, and how we keep it safe. By loading up our site and reading our guides, you agree to the practices outlined in this policy and our Terms & Conditions.
Where this applies
This Privacy Policy covers the data we collect directly through your online interactions on lonestar-models.com. It doesn’t cover anything collected offline, nor does it apply to third-party websites you might visit via links on our platform.
The information we gather
We keep data collection to the absolute minimum required to run the site smoothly.
Information you hand over: If you register for updates or fill out our contact form, we collect the basics — like your chosen username email address, and the contents of any messages you send us.
Information we pick up automatically: When you browse the site our systems automatically log standard technical details. This includes your IP address, device type, browser version, and data on how you navigate our content (like which reviews you visit and when).
Crucial note: Because we are a 100% free-to-use information portal we never collect, request, or store any financial, banking, or credit card information. The data we do collect is largely anonymised and used purely to fix bugs, spot trends, and make your browsing experience better.
Cookies and tracking
Like almost every website in the UK we use cookies. These are tiny text files placed on your device to help us remember your preferences and ensure the site runs without a hitch. We never use cookies to store sensitive personal information. If you prefer you can easily block or delete cookies through your browser settings — just keep in mind that some parts of the website might run a bit clunky if you do.
External links and partners
Since we review and recommend other platforms you will obviously spot links to external partners on our site. Once you click away from lonestar-models.com this Privacy Policy no longer applies. We have no control over how other sites operate, so we highly recommend having a quick read of their privacy notices before sharing any personal details with them.
Your legal rights (UK GDPR)
Under UK data protection laws you are fully in control of your personal information. You have the legal right to:
- Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Ask us to correct any details that are inaccurate or out of date.
- Request that we completely delete your data (the ‘right to be forgotten’).
- Restrict or object to how we process your information.
- Request data portability.
If you want to exercise any of these rights just get in touch. We will review and respond to all requests within 30 days in strict accordance with UK regulations.

Player safety and well-being
Even though our portal is totally free and we don’t handle your money we still care about how you play on the sites we recommend. We encourage all users to:
- Keep an eye on the clock and set sensible time limits.
- Take regular breaks to rest your eyes and stretch.
- Remember that gaming is purely for entertainment — it is not a way to make money.
- Ensure that screen time doesn’t get in the way of your daily life and real-world responsibilities.
