Specific Provisions Applicable for Users in the European Economic Area (EEA)
Accessing and Correcting Your Personal Information. At any time, you may contact us at
the address provided in the “Contact Gamincat” section herein and request to access the
personal data that we hold about you. We may need to ask you to provide certain information to
make sure you are who you claim to be. If you find the information on your account is not
accurate, complete or updated, then please provide us with the necessary information to correct
it.
Withdrawing Your Consent. Contact us if you would like to withdraw your consent to the
processing of your personal data. Exercising this right will not affect the lawfulness of
processing based on consent before withdrawal.
Erasing or Restricting Access to Your Information. You may request to delete or restrict
access to your personal data. We may postpone or deny your request if your personal data is in
current use for providing Services or for other legitimate purposes, in which case we will let you
know if we are unable to do so and why.
Transferring your Personal Data (Otherwise known as Your Right to Data Portability).
You have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided us in a structured,
commonly used and machine readable format and the right to transmit that data to another party
of your choice, where technically feasible. However, this right shall not apply where it would
adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
Right to Make Complaint: if you consider that our processing of your personal data infringes
data protection laws, you have a legal right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
responsible for data protection. You may do so in the EU member state of your habitual
residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.
If you have any concerns about the way we process your personal data, you are welcome to
contact our data protection officer at [dataprotection@gamincat.com] or write to us at the
address below under “Contact Gamincat”. We will look into your request and make good faith
efforts to resolve any concern you may have.
Security Safeguards. We take reasonable measures to protect your information from
unauthorized access or against loss, misuse or alteration by third parties. Although we make
good faith efforts to store the information collected on the Services in a secure operating
environment that is not available to the public, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of that
information during its transmission or its storage on our systems. Further, while we attempt to
ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our
security measures will prevent third-party “hackers” from illegally obtaining access to this
information. We do not warrant or represent that your information will be protected against,
loss, misuse, or alteration by third parties. No method of transmission over the Internet, or
method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its
absolute security.
Data Retention. We retain your personal data for as long as needed to provide you Services,
unless we are required by law to delete or if we accept your request to delete the information. We
will also retain and use your personal data as necessary to comply with our legal obligations,
resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Our Policy Regarding Children. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal data from
anyone under the age of 16 or knowingly allow such persons to use our Services. If you are
under 16, please do not send any information about yourself to us, including your name, address,
telephone number, or email address. No one under the age of 16 may provide any personal
data. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal data from a child under age 16,
we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any
information from or about a child under the age of 16, please contact us.
Transfer of Personal Data Outside Your Country. We may transfer information that we
collect about you to affiliated entities, or to other third parties across borders and from your
country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world. Please note that these
countries and jurisdictions may not have the same data protection laws as your own jurisdiction,
and we take steps to ensure adequate safeguards are in place to enable transfer of information
and the use and disclosure of information about you, including personal data, as described in this
Policy.
Lawful Basis for Processing. On certain occasions, we process your personal data when it is
necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, such as to provide the
Services to you. We may also process your personal data to respond to your inquiries
concerning our products and services.
On other occasions, we process your personal data where required by law. We may also process
your personal data if necessary to protect your interests or the interests of a third party.
Additionally, we process your personal data when necessary to do so for fraud prevention,
improving our network and Services, and marketing our Services to advertisers and publishers;
where these interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.
If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no other lawful basis for such
processing, we will generally ensure that consent has been obtained from you. You have the
right to withdraw your consent to processing of personal data at any time.
For questions about data processing, please contact our Data Protection Officer. Visit the
“Contact Gamincat” section below for contact information.
Changes to This Policy. We may update this Policy to reflect changes to our data and
information privacy practices. If we make any changes we will notify you by means of a notice
on the Services prior to the change becoming effective. We encourage you to periodically review
this Policy for the latest information on our privacy practices. Please note that if we need to adapt
the policy to legal requirements, the new policy will become effective immediately or as
required.
