Terms of Service

The rules for using this site. Mostly plain English, because nobody has time to decode legalese.

Last updated: December 28, 2025

Welcome to GameHazards. By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, you are technically required to close the tab, though I won't know either way.

Plain English: This is a personal site — it's just me (Mercer), not a company or team. I write about PC hardware and the gaming industry. I do my best to be accurate, but please don't make major life decisions based solely on my articles.

What GameHazards Does

GameHazards provides news, analysis, and commentary on:

  • PC hardware technology (GPUs, CPUs, RAM, storage)
  • Semiconductor industry trends and manufacturing
  • Gaming industry news and studio developments

This is an independent site. I'm not affiliated with any hardware manufacturer or game publisher, which means I get to tell you exactly what I think.

Market Analysis & Predictions

My analysis articles may include predictions about future hardware prices, market trends, or industry movements. These are opinions based on available data, not guarantees.

Tech markets are highly volatile. If you decide to panic-buy a GPU because of my guesses, that's on you. Do your own research.

Monetization

How this site stays online:

  • Display Ads: I show ads through Google AdSense. Yes, they can be annoying, but they pay the hosting bills.

I do not post deal lists, and I have zero affiliate links. If I link to a product, it's because it's cool or terrible, not because I'm getting a kickback.

Content Ownership & Use

All original content on GameHazards (articles, analysis, graphics) is my intellectual property unless otherwise noted.

You may:

  • ✓ Share links to my articles
  • ✓ Quote brief excerpts (with a link back)
  • ✓ Enjoy the reading

You may not:

  • ✗ Republish full articles without permission
  • ✗ Scrape my writing to train AI bots
  • ✗ Claim my writing is yours

For media inquiries or content licensing, contact Loading....

Third-Party Links

I link to external sources (developer updates, news, etc.):

I don't control these external sites. If they change their contents, break, or track you, that's between you and them.

Accuracy & Corrections

I strive for accuracy but I'm human. If you spot a factual error, feel free to email me at Loading.... I'll verify and correct mistakes promptly, without pretending they never happened.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

  • • GameHazards is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind
  • • I am not liable for any losses from using information on this site
  • • This includes decisions based on market predictions or general commentary
  • • I am not liable for third-party site issues

Use your common sense. This is an analysis blog, not investment banking advice.

Changes to These Terms

I may update these terms as needed. If I do, I'll update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance.

Governing Law

In the unlikely event that we end up in court over a personal blog, it will be handled under the laws of my local jurisdiction. Let's try to avoid that.
