EUROPE PRIVACY POLICY FOR APPS

(Last update June 20, 2024)

INTEREST-BASED ADS

Before sharing any information with advertising partners for the purposes of interest-based advertising, we will always ask for your consent. Based on your consent we share information we collect from you that can be used to personally identify your device, e.g. persistent identifiers such as advertising ID, IDFA, IP address and other information that may be personal to you, such as age and gender with our advertising partners and they can use such data for interest-based advertising. For example they can show you an ad based on your age and gender, they may attach the information gathered from our App to information gathered from other apps, websites, or via other services, and then build profiles, show you an ad based on such profile (for example they might know that device with your advertising ID has clicked on a sports ad within other publisher's app and show to you a sports ad in our App). In addition, we may use and share such information with our advertising partners to target and optimize our advertising and promotions in our and other publisher's apps.

We allow our advertising partners to show interest-based ads to you only if you have passed the age gate in our Apps and you have consented to the sharing of your personal information for the purposes of interest-based advertising.

Our advertising partners use different technologies for the purposes of interest-based advertising that process your personal information in different ways, so please review their data processing practices before you provide your consent to sharing your persistent identifiers such as advertising ID, IDFA, IP address and other information that may be personal to you for the purpose of interest-based advertising.

WHO CAN SHOW INTEREST-BASED ADS TO ME?

Please see the following list of advertising providers that are allowed to show interest-based advertising and review their data processing practices, including the technologies they use for the purposes of interest-based advertising:

HOW CAN I TURN OFF INTEREST-BASED ADS?

You have an option to withdraw your consent to sharing your personal information for the purposes of interest-based advertising at all times. You can withdraw your consent by going to the app settings and clicking the interest-based ads button where you can manage your preferences by choosing to which advertising partner you allow to share your personal information for the purposes of interest-based advertising.

When you decide to withdraw your consent or if you do not provide your consent, you may still see the same number of ads on your mobile device; however, these ads may be less relevant because they won't be based on topics you like, your interest, behavior, demographics, etc. Our advertising partners may continue to show you ads based on the content of the application you are using.

We consider ourselves to be family oriented, however we have decided to voluntarily implement higher child protection standards even though our products and services are not directed to, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of digital consent according to Europe data protection legislation, with the sole exception of persistent identifiers as described below.

If you become aware that your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us at [email protected].

In order to preserve the family-friendly reputation of our Apps, we age-gated some of the features in our Apps, so that they are not available for use by children under the age of digital consent according to Europe data protection legislation. The age gate is being conducted after the download of some of our Apps to assure the privacy and protection of younger users of our Apps. The features enabling potential collection and sharing of personally identifiable information, with the exception of persistent identifiers, are disabled for users who did not pass the age gate. For user's safety, it is not possible to change the age later. We do not store the year of birth of users who have identified themselves as below the age of digital consent according to Europe data protection legislation in our Apps, but only the information that their unique user ID did not pass the age gate.

The only personal information we collect from users who have identified themselves as below the age of digital consent according to Europe data protection legislation for the purposes of offering our services are persistent identifiers (such as device ID, IDFA, IDFV, advertising ID, publisher provided ID, IP address). Such persistent identifiers are used and shared with third parties only to place contextual advertisement (including frequency capping, fraud prevention and attribution and billing purposes), to authenticate users of or personalize the content on Apps, to maintain or analyze the functioning of the Apps, personalize the content of the App (such as sending push notifications), to perform network communications to protect the security or integrity of the user or the App, to ensure legal or regulatory compliance.

You are always free to opt out from the future collection of your personal information by us and our Partners by uninstalling all the Apps from each of your computing devices.
  • Right of access. You have a right to know what information we hold about you and in some cases to have the information communicated to you. If you wish to exercise this right, please contact us by letting us know that you wish to exercise your right of access and what information in particular you would like to receive. We reserve the right to ask for reasonable evidence to verify your identity before we provide you with any information. Please note that we may not be able to provide all the information you ask for, for instance if the information includes personal information about another person. Where we are not able to provide you with information that you have asked for, we will explain to you why. We will try to respond to any request for a right of access as soon as possible, but we will always do so within 1 month of receipt of your request and verification of your identity.

Please note that we may still retain some or all of that information, for example for complying with our legal obligations and protecting or enforcing legal rights. We may also retain your information in an anonymized form.

  • Right to file a complaint. You have the right to file a complaint against us. To do so, contact the supervisory authority in your country of residence.

GENERAL

Your privacy and security of your information is important to us and we always pay special attention to ensure that we process your information lawfully in accordance with one of the legal bases set out under Europe data protection laws that apply to Europe users. You can always determine your country of residence in the app settings by clicking a "Country" button and selecting your country. We have appointed data protection officer, ePrivacy GmbH, Große Bleichen 21, 20354 Hamburg, to help us ensure compliance with Europe data protection laws. We store your information for as long as needed to provide you with our services. We may store information longer, but only in a way that it cannot be tracked back to you. We operate globally and we share your information with our Partners as for the purposes described above in "How We Share Your Information" Section, which may include a transfer of your personal information outside of Europe. Please check http://outfit7.com/privacy/ regularly for changes to our Privacy Policy.

In each case where we process your information, we do so lawfully in accordance with one of the legal bases set out under Europe data protection law.

The legal bases that we rely upon are the following:

  • Contractual Necessity. This covers information that is processed by us in order to provide you with service that you have requested - and that we have agreed - to provide to you, that is to deliver and improve our services, to provide customer support, to deliver special features in our Apps (such as in-app chat feature, multi-player feature, leaderboards and other third party social network features), to deliver content of the in-app purchase you make.
  • Legitimate Interests.

We pay special attention to your data protection rights making sure that your data protection rights are not overridden by our legitimate interests. We rely on our legitimate interests for data processing for analytics, attribution and fraud prevention, push-notifications, cross-promotion, and contextual advertising purposes.
  • Consent. Where we ask for your consent to use your data for a particular purpose, we will make this clear at the point of collection and we will also make clear how you can withdraw your consent. We will ask for you consent before sharing any information with our advertising partners for the purposes of interest-based advertising and before conducting any surveys.
  • Legal Obligation. This covers information that is processed by us to comply with a legal obligation, for instance is to maintain records for tax purposes.

SECURITY

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of the collected information, and to prevent unauthorized access and the use of information contrary to this Privacy Policy. Although we use commercially reasonable efforts to assure that your information remains secure when maintained by us, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER

We operate globally, so we need to transfer your personal information to our affiliated entities and/or to other third party service providers across border and from your country to other countries around the world. Please note, that not all these countries have the same data protection laws as your own country, but we will always take appropriate steps to safeguard the privacy of your personal information.

We will transfer your personal information only when the transfer is based on one of the following safeguards:

  • To a country with adequate data protection. We will transfer your personal information outside Europe to a country that ensures an adequate level of protection in accordance with Europe data protection legislation.
  • Based on standard contractual clauses. We will transfer your personal information to our Partner outside EEA, if we have entered into standard contractual clauses with such Partner, that are adopted by Commission of European Union in accordance with Europe data protection legislation and are deemed to offer sufficient safeguards with respect to the protection of the privacy and fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals (you can obtain a copy of the clauses by contacting us via [email protected])__.
  • Based on an approved certification mechanism. We will transfer your personal information to our Partner outside Europe if our Partner is certified by an approved certification mechanism pursuant to Europe data protection legislation. For instance, to our partner that is certified to comply with the principles for data protection under the US-EU Privacy Shield Framework ("Privacy Shield") (you can view the entities certified under Privacy Shield at www.privacyshield.gov).

RETENTION
