These General Terms of Use and Sale (hereinafter "T&Cs") govern access to and use of the GTAside website, as well as commercial interactions conducted through this site, particularly via affiliate links in the Shop section.
GTAside is an independent fan site dedicated to the Grand Theft Auto franchise. It is neither official nor affiliated with Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive. The site generates revenue through affiliate programmes with third-party resellers (Instant Gaming, Amazon) and through advertising served by Google AdSense.
GTAside is freely accessible to any user with an Internet connection. All costs necessary to access the service (hardware, software, Internet connection) are the responsibility of the user.
The editor reserves the right to modify, suspend or interrupt access to the site at any time, without notice, particularly for maintenance or technical development reasons.
The site is published in English.
GTAside participates in affiliate programmes with third-party resellers. When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, GTAside receives a commission paid by the reseller.
Other merchants shown in our price comparisons (such as Eneba, Kinguin or CDKeys) are listed for information only: GTAside has no affiliate agreement with them and earns no commission on those purchases.
Advertising: GTAside may display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Ads are chosen by Google, identified as advertising, and do not imply any endorsement by GTAside. Advertising cookies are only used with your consent where the law requires it (see our Privacy Policy).
Price transparency: affiliate links do not in any way modify the price paid by the user. You buy at the same price as going directly to the merchant's website. The commission is entirely paid by the seller.
