WHAT DATA DO WE COLLECT?

Below you will find an overview of the data we may collect:

Unidentified and non-identifiable information that you provide during the registration process or that is collected through your use of our services ("Non-Personal Information"). Non-Personal Information does not allow for any identification of who collected it. The Non-Personal Information we collect primarily consists of technical and aggregated usage information.
Individually identifiable information, meaning anything that can be used to identify you or could reasonably be expected to identify you ("Personal Information"). The Personal Information 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. When we combine Personal Information with Non-Personal Information, we treat it as Personal Information while it remains combined.

HOW DO WE COLLECT DATA?

Below are the main methods we use to collect data:

We collect data when you use our services. This means that when you visit our digital assets and use services, we may collect, record, and store usage, session, and related information.
We collect data that you provide to us, for example when you contact us directly through a communication channel (e.g., an email with a comment or feedback).
We may collect information from third-party sources as described below.
We collect information that you provide to us when you sign in to our services through a third-party service such as Facebook or Google.

WHY DO WE COLLECT THIS DATA?

We may use your information for the following purposes:

to provide and operate our services;
to develop, customize and improve our services;
to respond to your feedback, requests and requests and to offer assistance;
to analyze requirements and usage patterns;
for other internal, statistical and research purposes;
to improve our data security and fraud prevention capabilities;
to investigate violations and enforce our terms and policies and to comply with applicable law, regulations or government requests;
To send you updates, news, promotional materials, and other information related to our services. For promotional emails, you can choose whether you wish to continue receiving them. If you do not wish to continue receiving them, simply click the unsubscribe link in those emails.

WHO DO WE SHARE THIS DATA WITH?

We may share your information with our service providers to operate our services (e.g., storing data through third-party hosting services, providing technical support, etc.).

We may also disclose your information in the following circumstances: (i) to investigate, detect, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities or other wrongdoing; (ii) to establish or exercise our rights of defense; (iii) to protect our rights, property, or personal safety, as well as the safety of our users or the public; (iv) in the event of a change of control of us or one of our affiliates (through a merger, acquisition, or purchase of substantially all of our assets, among others); (v) to collect, retain, and/or manage your information through authorized third parties (e.g., cloud service providers) as reasonably necessary for our business; (vi) to work with third parties to improve your user experience. For the avoidance of doubt, we may transfer, share, or otherwise use non-personal information to third parties at our sole discretion.

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

To deliver these ads to you, we may use cookies and/or JavaScript and/or web beacons (including clear 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 ads based on your website visits), to deliver targeted ads. Third-party ad network providers, advertisers, sponsors, and/or website traffic measurement services may also use cookies and/or JavaScript and/or web beacons (including clear GIFs) and/or Flash cookies and/or other technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to tailor advertising content to you. These third-party cookies and other technologies are governed by the specific privacy policy of each third party and not this one.

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 analytics services ("Tracking Technologies"). These Tracking Technologies may allow third parties to automatically collect your information to enhance your browsing experience on our digital assets, optimize their performance, provide a customized user experience, and for security and fraud prevention purposes.

To learn more, please read our Cookie Policy.

WHERE DO WE STORE THE DATA?

Non-personal data

Please note that our companies, 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 any non-personal information we collect in different jurisdictions.

Personal data

Personal Data may be maintained, processed, and stored in the United States, Ireland, South Korea, Taiwan, Israel, and as necessary for the proper provision of our Services and/or as required by law (as further explained below) in other jurisdictions.

HOW LONG IS THE DATA RETAINED?

Please note that we retain the information we collect 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 sole discretion.

HOW DO WE PROTECT DATA?

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we can offer our services to you. Your data may be stored via our hosting provider's data storage, databases, and general applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall and offer secure HTTPS access to most areas of their services.

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

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

For this reason, we ask you to use secure passwords and, if possible, not to send us or others any confidential information whose disclosure you believe could cause you significant or lasting harm. Furthermore, since email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we ask you not to share any confidential information through any of these communication channels.

HOW DO WE DEAL WITH MINORS?

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

We reserve the right to request age verification at any time to ensure that minors are not using our services. If we become aware that a minor is using our services, we may deny access, block the user, and delete any data we have stored about that user. If you have reason to believe that a minor has provided us with personal data, please contact us as described below.

We use your personal data only for the purposes set out in our Privacy Policy and only if we are convinced that:

The use of your personal data is necessary to perform or enter into a contract (e.g., to provide the services themselves, customer support, or technical assistance);
The use of your personal data is necessary to comply with applicable legal or regulatory obligations; or
The use of your personal data is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided this is done in a proportionate manner that respects your privacy rights).

As an EU resident, you may:

Request confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed and access your stored personal data and certain supplementary information;
Receive personal data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format;
Request the correction of your personal data we hold;
Request the deletion of your personal data;
Object to the processing of your personal data;
Request the restriction of the processing of your personal data; and
Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Please note that these rights are not absolute and may be subject to our legitimate interests and regulatory requirements. For general questions regarding the personal data we collect and how it is used, please contact us as indicated below.

In providing the services, we may transfer data across borders to affiliated companies or other third parties, from your country/jurisdiction to other countries/jurisdictions worldwide. By using the services, you consent to the transfer of your data outside the EEA.

If you are located in the EEA, your personal data will only be transferred outside the EEA if we are confident that an adequate or comparable level of protection for personal data exists. We will take appropriate steps to ensure that we have suitable contractual arrangements with our third parties to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, minimizing the risk of unauthorized use, alteration, deletion, loss, or theft of your personal data, and that these third parties act in compliance with applicable laws.

If you use the services as a California resident, you may be entitled under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) to access and request the deletion of your personal data.

To exercise your right to access or delete your personal data, please see the contact information provided below.

We encourage you to check this Privacy Policy regularly for changes. If any changes are material, we will post a notice on our website.
