Processing of your personal information (meaning, any information which may potentially allow your identification with reasonable means; hereinafter „Personal Information“) may be necessary for the performance of our contractual obligations towards you and providing you with our services, to protect our legitimate interests and for compliance with legal and financial regulatory obligations to which we may be subjected.
When you use the app, you consent to the collection, storage, use, disclosure and other uses of your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy. Where explicit consent is required by law (such as the GDPR) in order to process Personal Information, you will be prompted for consent prior to collecting, storing or processing such data.
We encourage our Users to carefully read the Privacy Policy and use it to make informed decisions.
We do not retain any of your Personal Information unless it is absolutely necessary to provide our services, and as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our policies. Retention periods will be determined considering the type of information that is collected and the purpose for which it is collected, bearing in mind the requirements applicable to the situation and the need to destroy outdated, unused information at the earliest reasonable time.
We may rectify, replenish or remove incomplete or inaccurate information, at any time and at our own discretion.
We do not purposefully collect, store or process any Personal Information without legitimate interest and only do so when it is required to be able to offer our services. Therefore, no permanent records with Personal Information are kept, since we do not need it unless you contact us or otherwise initiate communication with us directly or indirectly. This also means that we do not store information about user consent when user consent is not explicitly required or when storing of such information will require obtaining Personal Information from you solely for the purpose of storing the consent information. However, we may use third-party services that may need to obtain certain Personal Information and user data in order to be able to provide their services, which in turn may require user consent. In those cases, please visit the links and read their respective privacy policies carefully.
Generally, there are two types of information that may be collected by us and by the third-party services we use and/or offer:

We receive your Personal Information from various sources or in different ways:
We use any of the data and information that is made accessible to us (such as your Personal Information) very carefully. We do not rent or sell any of that data or information and only share Non-Personal Information as well as Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy for the sole purpose of being able to provide our website and offer our services and apps.
Personal Information that you disclose with us voluntarily will only be used for the single purpose of communicating with you, and only in case you contact us. We do not initiate contact to you by ourselves. We do not offer any newsletter or other informational services to subscribe to. We do not tailor marketing based on Personal Information and do not offer personalized advertisements on our website or in our apps and games so long as you do not consent to it.
Furthermore, we use anonymous usage and device data for statistical and analytical purposes to improve our website, services and the apps and games that we offer. This is required in order to ensure that our website, apps and games function correctly and to improve the overall user experience.
We may share Personal Information with our trusted third-party providers, who may be located in different jurisdictions across the world, for any of the following purposes:
We may also disclose information if we have good faith to believe that disclosure of such information is helpful or reasonably necessary to: (i) comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request; (ii) enforce our policies, including investigations of potential violations thereof; (iii) investigate, detect, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities or other wrongdoing, suspected fraud or security issues; (iv) to establish or exercise our rights to defend against legal claims; (v) prevent harm to the rights, property or safety of us, our users, yourself or any third-party; or (vi) for the purpose of collaborating with law enforcement agencies and/or in case we find it necessary in order to enforce intellectual property or other legal rights.

Additionally, Unity Analytics may be used to measure anonymous usage statistics and track In-App Purchases. In-App Purchases are realized through a Unity plugin in combination with the Play Store by Google for which Unity Analytics needs to be enabled.
Furthermore, we may use social networks and profiles to provide additional ways to contact us and share information, updates and news about our games, apps and services. A social network is a place for social meetings on the Internet, an online community, which usually allows users to communicate with each other and interact in a virtual space. A social network may serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences, or enable the Internet community to provide Personal Information or business-related information. On our website, we have integrated components of the enterprise Facebook. Facebook is a social network and allows its users to include the creation of private profiles, upload photos, and network through friend requests.
