Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of information in the form of text files that are sent to your browser from our web server and are stored on your computer. Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.
There are essentially 3 different types of cookies that we use.
Essential cookies – These cookies allow you to browse the Simpson Game website, search for products, and add and save items to your basket.
Non-essential cookies – These cookies help us improve your experience on the site, for example by allowing us to show you alternative product suggestions based on the products you view.

If you wish, you can set up your computer so that it rejects cookies and you will find instructions on how to do this at www.allaboutcookies.org. Please note that in doing so, in common with other on-line shopping sites, this may impact some of the functionality of our site.

Analytics
We use a 3rd party analytic platform to bring together order, customer and products data so we can make informed decisions about our services and how to improve it.
On-line advertising
We use on-line advertising to keep you aware of what we are up to and to help you see and find our products.
We may show you Simpson Game adverts when you are on other websites or apps about things that you have shown an interest in on our own website, or relating to campaigns you have interacted with. This is called re-targeting advertising. We do this using a variety of digital marketing networks and ad exchanges, and we use a range of advertising technologies like pixels, ad tags, cookies, and mobile identifiers, as well as specific services offered by some sites and social networks, such as Facebook’s Custom Audience service.
Live chat
If you use our Live Chat service to ask a question about the products, service or your order status, we ask for your name to make it more personal and, where relevant, to help us find your order. Sometimes we cannot answer the questions immediately and will ask for your email address so that we can reply to you. If you want a transcript of the conversation, you must also provide your email address.
Social networks
At Simpson Game we use communication tools to share links with social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. If you click on these features, such as a “share” button, the company providing them may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our site and may place cookies when you are connected into their services. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it. For more information on the cookies used by these websites, you can refer to their specific privacy statements (e.g. Facebook Data Policy).
