Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 19, 2026

SEGA Shop Local respects the privacy of our visitors and participating businesses. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what information may be displayed publicly through our business directory.

By using SEGA Shop Local or submitting information to the directory, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

We may collect information that you voluntarily provide when you submit a business listing, create an account, contact us, or otherwise interact with the website.

This information may include:

  • Business name
  • Business description
  • Business address or service area
  • Business telephone number
  • Business email address
  • Website address
  • Business categories
  • Photographs, logos, and other images
  • Account or contact information
  • Other information voluntarily submitted for inclusion in a business listing

Our website may also automatically collect limited technical information, such as IP address, browser type, device information, and information necessary for website security, operation, and spam prevention.

Business Listing Information

SEGA Shop Local is a public business directory. Information submitted for inclusion in a business listing is intended to be publicly displayed once the listing has been reviewed and approved.

Business owners should therefore avoid submitting private or personal information that they do not want displayed publicly.

Submitting a listing does not guarantee publication. SEGA Shop Local reserves the right to review, edit, reject, or remove listings when necessary to maintain the accuracy, usefulness, and integrity of the directory.

Accounts and Contact Information

Certain features of SEGA Shop Local may require users to create an account or provide contact information.

Information used for account administration, website security, or communication with a business owner will not normally be displayed publicly unless it was also submitted as part of the public business listing.

Photos and Uploaded Media

Businesses may be permitted to upload logos, photographs, or other images for use with their listings.

Please do not upload images containing private information or embedded location information that you do not wish to make public.

By uploading an image, you represent that you have the right or permission to use and submit that image.

How We Use Information

Information collected through SEGA Shop Local may be used to operate and maintain the website, review and publish business listings, communicate with business owners, respond to questions or requests, prevent spam or misuse, improve the directory, and protect the security and integrity of the website.

We do not sell personal information submitted through SEGA Shop Local.

Cookies and Website Technology

SEGA Shop Local may use cookies and similar technologies necessary for website functionality, security, account access, preferences, and performance.

Third-party services used by the website may also place cookies or collect limited technical information according to their own privacy policies.

Third-Party Services and Links

SEGA Shop Local may use third-party services, WordPress plugins, hosting services, security tools, email services, mapping services, or other technologies necessary to operate the website.

Business listings may also contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.

SEGA Shop Local is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of websites operated by other businesses or organizations. Visitors should review the privacy policies of those websites when appropriate.

How Long We Keep Information

Business listing information may remain on SEGA Shop Local for as long as the listing remains active or as reasonably necessary to operate and maintain the directory.

Certain account, administrative, security, or technical information may be retained when reasonably necessary for legitimate website operations, legal obligations, fraud prevention, or security purposes.

Correcting or Removing Information

Business owners may request that inaccurate listing information be corrected or that a business listing be removed.

Requests may be sent to:

listings@segashoplocal.com

We may take reasonable steps to verify that the person requesting a significant change or removal is authorized to act on behalf of the business.

Security

We take reasonable measures to protect information submitted through SEGA Shop Local. However, no website, server, or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Children’s Privacy

SEGA Shop Local is intended as a business directory and is not directed toward children under 13. We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children under 13.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically as SEGA Shop Local develops or as our website practices change.

The current version will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
