- Marketing & Communication: To send you newsletters, promotional offers, and updates about Pixel Hearth Studios' new releases or events, based on your communication preferences. You can opt-out at any time.
- Analytics & Service Improvement: To analyze usage trends, perform research, and evaluate the effectiveness of our content and services, helping us make them even better for you.
