Personal data we collect through our Services may include information requested from time to time, such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, IP addresses, and more.

To avoid misunderstandings, please note that we may transfer or otherwise use non-personal data at our discretion for third parties.

Category: User has a blog or forum

Please be aware that our Services enable social interactions (e.g., publicly posting content, information, and comments, as well as chatting with other users). All content or data you provide in these areas may be read, captured, and used by other individuals. We discourage posting or sharing information that you do not wish to make public. When you upload content to our digital assets or otherwise provide content within the use of a service, you do so at your own risk. We cannot control the actions of other users or members of the public who have access to your data or content. You acknowledge and hereby confirm that copies of your data may remain accessible, even after it has been deleted, on cached and archived pages or due to the creation of a copy or storage of your content by third parties.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

When you visit or access our Services, we authorize third parties to use web beacons, cookies, pixel tags, scripts, and other technologies and analytical services ("Tracking Technologies"). These Tracking Technologies may allow third parties to automatically collect your data to enhance the browsing experience on our digital assets, optimize their performance, ensure a customized user experience, as well as for security and fraud prevention purposes.

For more information, please read our Cookie Policy.

Category: User is NOT connected to an advertising service

Without your consent, we will not share your email address or other personal data with advertising companies or advertising networks.

Category: User is connected to an advertising service, a campaign manager, or Facebook Ads

We may serve advertisements through our Services and digital assets (including websites and applications that use our Services) that may be tailored to you, such as advertisements based on your recent browsing behavior on websites, devices, or browsers.

To provide these advertisements for you, we may use cookies, JavaScript, and/or web beacons (including transparent GIFs) and/or HTML5 Local Storage and/or other technologies. We may also use third parties, such as network advertisers (i.e., third parties who display advertisements based on your website visits) to display targeted advertisements. External providers of advertising networks, advertisers, sponsors, and/or website traffic measurement services may also use cookies and/or JavaScript and/or web beacons (including transparent GIFs) and/or Flash cookies and/or other technologies to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to customize advertising content for you. These third-party cookies and other technologies are subject to the specific privacy policy of each third party, not this one.

Where do we store the data?

Category: Always

Non-Personal Data

Please note that our businesses, as well as our trusted partners and service providers, are located around the world. For the purposes explained in this Privacy Policy, we store and process all non-personal data we collect in various jurisdictions.

Category: User submits personal data

Personal Data

Personal data may be maintained, processed, and stored in the United States, Ireland, South Korea, Taiwan, Israel, and, where required by law or for the proper provision of our services, in other jurisdictions.

How long are the data retained?

Category: Always

Please note that we retain the data collected for as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with our legal and contractual obligations to you, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

We may correct, supplement, or delete inaccurate or incomplete data at any time at our discretion.

How do we protect the data?

Category: Always

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we can offer you our services. Your data may be stored on secure servers behind a firewall, and it provides secure HTTPS access to most areas of its services.

Category: User accepts payments/eCommerce

All payment options offered by us and our hosting provider for our digital assets comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) set forth by the PCI Security Standards Council. This is a collaboration of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information (including physical, electronic, and procedural measures) by our store and service providers.

Category: Always

Despite the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and will not guarantee absolute protection and absolute security of the data you upload, post, or otherwise provide to us or to others.

For this reason, we kindly ask you to set secure passwords and to avoid transmitting confidential information to us or to others when possible, as disclosure of such information could cause you significant or persistent harm, in your opinion. Since email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we also ask that you do not transmit confidential information via these communication channels.

How do we handle minors?

Category: User does NOT collect data from minors

The Services are not intended for users who have not yet reached the legal age of majority. We will not knowingly collect data from children. If you are not of legal age, you should not download or use the Services and should not provide us with any information.

We reserve the right to request age verification at any time so we can verify if minors are using our services. In the event that we become aware that a minor is using our services, we may prohibit such users from accessing our services and may block them, and we may delete all data stored by us about such users. If you have reason to believe that a minor has provided data to us, please contact us as explained below.

Category: User collects data from minors

Children may use our Services. However, if they wish to access certain features, they may be required to provide certain information. The collection of some data (including data collected through cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies) may occur automatically. If we collect data knowingly from a child, we will notify and obtain parental consent in accordance with applicable law. We do not make a child's participation in an online activity dependent on the child's providing more contact data than is reasonably necessary for participation in that activity. We use the data we collect from a child only in connection with the services that the child has requested.

We may also use a parent's contact data to communicate about the child's activities in the Services. Parents can request to see the data we have collected about their child, prohibit us from collecting further data from their child, and request that we delete all data we have collected about their child.

Please contact us to view, update, or delete your child's data. To protect your child, we may require proof of your identity. We may deny access to data if we believe your identity is questionable. Certain data may not be deleted due to other legal obligations.

Category: Always

We use your personal data only for the purposes specified in the Privacy Policy and only when we believe that:

  • The use of your personal data is necessary to perform or conclude a contract (e.g., to provide you with the services themselves or customer support or technical support);

  • The use of your personal data is necessary to comply with relevant legal or regulatory obligations, or

  • The use of your personal data is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided that this is always done in a way that is proportionate and respects your privacy rights).

If you are an EU resident, you may have the following rights:

  • Request confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed, and access to your stored personal data, as well as additional information.

  • Receive personal data you directly provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

  • Request rectification of your personal data that is in our control.

  • Request erasure of your personal data.

As part of providing the Services, we may transfer data across borders to our affiliates or other third parties, and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world. By using the Services, you agree to the transfer of your data outside of the EEA.

If you are an EU resident, your personal data will only be transferred to locations outside the EEA if we believe that there is an adequate or equivalent level of data protection. We will take suitable steps to ensure that we have appropriate contractual arrangements in place with our third-party data processors, and we have carried out adequate security and privacy assessments, as well as adhering to international data protection standards such as those prescribed by the EU.
