- GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING
2.1 Our grounds for processing your personal data are:
- your consent;
- our legitimate interests;
- performance of a contract;
- our legal obligations.
2.2 We do NOT intentionally collect and process sensitive personal data. Please, refrain from sharing your sensitive personal data when you provide information to us through Website, our social media accounts, and email.
2.3 We collect and process your personal data in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR
GDPR provides an exclusive list of lawful bases allowing us to process the personal data. During the personal data processing we rely only on four of them, namely:
Article 6.1(a): consent
We collect the information you choose to give us, and we process it under your consent. We require the minimum amount of your personal data that is necessary to send you customized advertisements or conduct our marketing campaigns; to serve our Ads on the Developer’s game or application (in this case, the obligation to obtain consent is delegated to Developer) and to establish a business connection. You may withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time. Please remember that the withdrawal of consent does NOT automatically mean that the processing before the withdrawal is considered unlawful. You may NOT withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal data on a basis of the performance of a contract between you and Company or on a basis of Company’s legitimate interests.
You may withdraw the consent to the processing of your personal data by sending us an email at privacy@odeeo.io, via Contact Us form, or by contacting us in any other way convenient for you.
Article 6.1(b): performance of a contract
When you provide us with the personal data during the registration of the account on the Website, this can be deemed as your request to form a contract or to perform a contract between you and us. However, we may ask you to give us clear consent in case of doubt.
Article 6.1(c): legal obligation
We process your personal data to fulfil the applicable legal obligations arising mainly under the GDPR. If you send us the request to fulfil the rights granted by the GDPR, we may ask you for some personal data we already have to identify you and achieve compliance with the applicable law.
Article 6.1(f): legitimate interests
We process your personal data to prevent any fraudulent actions and to provide you and other users with the desired services. Also, we need some data to enable our Website to run smoothly and give you and other users a pleasant user experience. We use only strictly necessary data under this legal ground.
- PERIOD OF STORAGE OF COLLECTED PERSONAL DATA
3.1 Personal Data. Your Personal Data will be stored until we: (i) no longer need the information and proactively delete it; or (ii) you send a valid deletion request. Please note that we may retain it for a longer or shorter period in accordance with data retention laws.
3.2 Retention of your Personal Data. In addition to the retention periods mentioned in this section, in some circumstances, we may store your Personal Data for longer periods of time, for example (i) where we are required to do so in accordance with legal, regulatory, tax, or accounting requirements, or (ii) for us to have an accurate record of your dealings with us in the event of any complaints or challenges, or (iii) if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation relating to your Personal Data or dealings.
3.3 Website cookies. We store identifiers and usage data for the period specified in our Cookie Policy.
- HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We have implemented appropriate technical, organizational, and security measures designed to protect your Personal Data. As the security of information depends in part on the security of the computer, device, or network you use to communicate with us and the security you use to protect your user IDs and passwords, please make sure to take appropriate measures to protect this information. We regularly review our security procedures and policies to consider appropriate new technology and methods.
If you want to receive the list of the current recipients of your Personal Data, please contact us at privacy@odeeo.io.
We only transfer your personal data to third parties according to the requirements of GDPR. Where possible, we always enter into data processing agreements (DPAs) and Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) with our third parties. We may disclose the personal data to third parties, including those located outside the EU and EEA, provided that proper safeguards are put in place and the applicable local laws do not put your rights at risk.
- ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA
6.1 For transfers to countries that do not fall under requirements of Article 45 of the GDPR on the adequacy of the level of protection, we may transfer your personal data to the third countries outside the EU and the EEA, including the onward transfers of the personal data from the third countries to other third countries, under Article 46 of the GDPR with the appropriate safeguards, including the SCC.
6.2 We disclose your personal data to the countries outside the EU and the EEA, in compliance with the SCC approved by the European Commission in order to adduce adequate safeguards with respect to the protection of privacy and fundamental rights and freedoms of natural and legal persons. We put supplementary technical and organizational measures in place when transferring data outside the EU and the EEA. e.g., prior assessment of the service supplier’s reliability and personal data protection practices, encryption of the transferred personal data, prompt reacting to any threats to confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the personal data, etc.
