Statement regarding protection of your personal data

As a Company, we take data privacy seriously and do our utmost to protect any personal information we receive. We only process data on legal grounds that allow such processing, and always in strict compliance with applicable law and regulations permitting any such processing.

This Privacy Policy governs all our applications and services that are available for use on mobile devices, personal computers, or any other platforms including the website. This includes anything related to how we process and protect your personal data. Therefore, by using any of our applications and/or services you agree with this Policy.

As the data controller, we are responsible for your information. If you do not want us to collect and process this information in accordance with our Privacy Policy, then unfortunately you are not permitted to use our applications or services.

When we identify what data is collected and how that data will be processed, the Company becomes a “data controller” under various European legislations, including GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) in Europe, 2018 Data Protection Act in the UK, and under Ukrainian Personal Data Law of 2010. We may also be a “data operator” following 1998 COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule).

We only process personal information under at least one of the following legitimate reasons, including but not limited to: 

• you have agreed to the processing of your data; 

• Processing is necessary to carry out an agreement with you (including any offer and acceptance), for example when you use our applications / services.

• such processing is required by the laws of the countries in which we offer our services or make our applications/services available; 

• the processing is for the legitimate interests of the company as a controller or a required third party, unless interests relating to the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject requiring data protection prevail over the interests set out above.

Moreover, please be advised, that that we do not ask for any sensitive personal information from our users/visitors.

Our Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to comply with applicable law. Please visit this Policy periodically to see if any changes have been made.

Processing of children’s data

We consider users/customers who are under 13 years of age to be children, unless different age limits apply in their respective country (in certain jurisdictions, these are individuals under 16).

By default we neither collect nor process children’s personal data. However, as the demographic of our application includes children, among its users there are likely to be parents who might purchase services for their kids (such as buying a pro plan or in-app characters), you should be aware that it is possible your child’s information will be collected when using these services on behalf of your child.

The parents or guardians who order the services for children must agree to these terms and conditions of use of the application, as well as this policy. They are also responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the data and providing any necessary service to their child.

By continuing to use our applications or services, you confirm that you understand that personal data may be collected and processed in accordance with this Policy. If you are ordering our services for a child, you confirm that you have the consent of the child’s parent or guardian to do so.

When ordering a service or downloading an application for further use, the person who takes the relevant action is representing the legitimate interests of the child and is personally responsible for the child’s actions with this service and/or application in future.

Children must not share their real name, location, phone number or email address, or any other personal information, without the consent of their parents or other legal guardian.

We don’t encourage children to join a game by using our apps by offering a reward, and we don’t recommend other children’s activities that reveal more personal information about the child than is actually necessary to use the app.

We do not share any of our users’ personal data with any third parties.

We at the company take data minimization seriously- only processing the information related to users, customers and clients that we need to in order to perform certain functions and for specific purposes. Your personal information is always kept safe and sound beyond the scope of necessary processing (such as when you send us your CV).

.

We have designed our website and applications to provide services in a way that would ensure the best possible privacy. 

When we share data with our partners, we always use the most safe and secure data communication channels.

The Company complies with the GDPR by taking measures to protect data disclosure to countries outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, based on approved standard terms and conditions from the European Commission, or any other applicable provisions according to Article 46 of the GDPR.

However, the security of your data cannot be guaranteed in the case of unauthorized access to your devices that are outside of your control. The Company will not be liable for this.

How long is the of data processing / storage kept

We will only keep your data for as long as it is needed to achieve the purpose for which it is collected and processed, or to comply with regulatory requirements.

We identify the relevant storage period by identifying the nature and category of the personal data, the purposes of processing, and whether we can hit those purposes otherwise.

The Company will usually only process personal data for a maximum of three years after it was received. However, this may be extended if the user/customer is still using our application or other services.

However, other countries’ regulations may have additional requirements. The required data storage period may vary depending on the user’s location and the laws of the country that require proof of this period.

For example, if the country where our application or service user resides has a limitation of action provision that defines the time period during which they can file their claim or complaint against us, and we need proof of legal relations with them to comply with this rule, then we may process their personal data during this limitation. 

We need to consider any periods of time when we might have to keep your personal data so that we can comply with our legal commitments to you or supervisory authorities. 

We may gradually reduce the amount of personal data we use over time, or even make it anonymous so that it is no longer linked to you specifically. In this case, we can use this information without further notice, as it no longer contains any personal data.
