3. How we use your information
Generally we use your information to run, provide, maintain and improve Super Services as well as to communicate with you. In majority of cases, processing of your information is justified on the following basis:
To comply with legal obligations
For example, we may process your information to comply with mandatory disclosures to law enforcement
or applicable laws such as Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
To perform an agreement with you
Processing of information is necessary to enter into an agreement with you at your request.
This allows you to participate in interactive features of Super Services when you choose to do so.
On the basis of your consent
Sometimes we may ask for your consent to process information for specific reasons.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us via the Contact Information section of this policy below.
However, keep in mind withdrawing your consent may result in us no longer being able to provide parts of Super Services to you.
For our legitimate interests
We may process your information where we have legitimate interests to do so.
Such interests include analyzing your behavior to improve Super Services, performing administrative tasks,
fraud prevention, debugging, customer support, or contacting you with offers we think might interest you.
4. How we share your information
Some information such as nickname/username, avatar image, player statistics or game and match replays are shared with other users in cases where you encounter them or if they search for it. We allow third parties such as cloud computing providers, payment providers or other business partners access to some information for the purposes of storage, support, management, analytics, etc.
If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, sale or reorganisation we may transfer your information to the involved third party. Any third party to which we sell or transfer our assets to will have the right to continue to use your information in the manner set out in this policy.
5. How and where we store your information
We store your information on Amazon Web Services (AWS) databases within the USA where possible. We may also replicate the databases in other countries to reduce latency when using Super Services. Third parties we use may store information elsewhere.
6. How we keep your information safe
We make sure all sensitive information you send us when using Super Services is encrypted in transit. On our websites, encryption is achieved by the use of SSL/TLS. For our games and software we're mostly using a custom UDP based protocol we've built specifically for Super Services. Encryption on this protocol is achieved by exchanging keys via RSA and then encrypting the data with AES.
To make sure information we store is kept secure, we use industry standard practices and procedures. If you have registered an account, some information can be accessed via your login credentials, so please keep those safe. However since no system can be completely secure, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information.
7. How long do we keep your information for
Generally we remove your information as soon as the purpose of collecting it is achieved. In order to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, maintain business records, prevent fraud, cheating or abuse or enforce this policy or any other agreement, we may retain some information longer even after we have ceased providing Super Services to you.
8. International Data Transfers
Our servers reside in several regions and countries, and as such your information may be transferred internationally for the purpose of replication or to provide a good quality of service. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data in such cases.
When we transfer your information outside of the European Economic Area, we take steps to ensure that your information receives the same level of protection as if it remained within the EU. This includes standard data protection clauses adopted by a data protection regulator and approved by the European Commission, obtaining your explicit consent, or relying on certification schemes such as the EU – US Privacy Shield. If you would like to find out more about the mechanism under which your information is transferred outside of the EU, you can contact us by reading the Contact Information section below.
9. Third Party Disclosure
Super Services may contain links to, or enable you to use third party services which may have their own privacy policies. We do not accept any responsibility or liability for the privacy practices of such third party services and your use of these is at your own risk.
