Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 8 June 2026

1. Introduction & acceptance

Welcome to Retro In Hand (“Retro In Hand”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), available at retroinhand.co.uk (the “Site”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the Site.

2. Who we are & how to contact us

Retro In Hand is an independent, UK-based retro and handheld gaming site. It’s a small, enthusiast-run project — a few friends who share a passion for the hobby, contributing research, ideas, and opinions. You can contact us at support@retroinhand.co.uk.

3. Nature of our content

The Site provides informational and opinion-based content about retro and handheld gaming — reviews, buying guides, comparisons, and how-to articles. Our content is for general information only and is not professional, legal, financial, or technical advice. Any modifications, repairs, or purchasing decisions you make based on our content are at your own risk.

4. Accuracy & no warranty

We work hard to keep our content accurate and up to date, but prices, availability, specifications, and product details change frequently and may be out of date or contain errors. Nothing on the Site is guaranteed to be complete, current, or error-free. Always check the current price, specification, and availability directly with the retailer before making a purchase. The Site is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind.

5. Affiliate links & how we earn

Retro In Hand takes part in affiliate marketing programmes — currently the Amazon Associates Programme (UK) and the eBay Partner Network. This means that when you click certain product links on the Site and make a qualifying purchase, we may earn a commission — at no extra cost to you. This never affects the price you pay, and it does not change our honest editorial opinions. For full details, see our Affiliate Disclosure.

6. Third-party links & advertising

The Site contains links to third-party websites (such as retailers) and displays advertising served by third parties, including Google AdSense. These third-party sites and ads are not under our control. We are not responsible for the content, products, policies, or practices of any third-party site or advertiser, and a link or ad is not an endorsement. Third-party advertisers and partners may use cookies — please see our Privacy Policy for how cookies and your data are handled.

7. Intellectual property

Unless otherwise stated, all content on the Site — including articles, text, reviews, graphics, and layout — belongs to Retro In Hand or its contributors and is protected by copyright. You may view and share links to our content for personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, reproduce, republish, or redistribute our content elsewhere without our prior written permission. Product names, brands, and trademarks mentioned on the Site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and reference only.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Retro In Hand will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the Site or your reliance on its content — including, for example, decisions to buy, modify, or repair hardware. Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any liability that cannot legally be limited or excluded.

9. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms & Conditions from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date, and your continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.

10. Governing law

These Terms & Conditions are governed by the laws of England & Wales, and any disputes will be subject to the courts of England & Wales.
