1. Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on what Services you use and how you use them

We also may collect and store information locally on your device, using mechanisms like cookies, browser web storage (including HTML 5), and application data caches.

D) Legal Basis for Processing

If you are a resident of the European Union, we rely on a number of legal grounds to process information about you. For example, we will process information about you where we have your consent, where we have a legitimate interest to do so, where the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, and where we have a legal obligation to process your information. For example, we rely on our legitimate interests to serve targeted marketing for our Services and on contractual necessity to process information when you create an F3 Games Studio account. To learn more about the legal grounds on which we rely to process your information for any particular purpose, please contact us as set out below.

2. How We Collect Information
A) Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your Internet browser. We use cookies and similar technologies to help us understand things like what web pages, features, or ads you view and what games you play. This information helps us enhance your player experience. You can disable cookies, limit the types of cookies you allow, or set your browser to alert you when cookies are being sent. Please refer to guidance provided by your individual web browser if you'd like help in managing your cookie preferences. We use other technologies for similar purposes as a cookie. We use tracking pixels or clear GIFs to collect information about your use of our Services and your response to our marketing emails.

If you play a game offline, this data will be stored on your device and transmitted to us when your device connects to the Internet. If you participate in online Services, we may also collect, use, store, transmit and publicly display your persona and/or statistical data regarding your gameplay, or identify content that is created and shared by you with other players.

5. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SECURE?
A) Technical and Organisational Measures

We have adopted technical and organizational measures to provide your personal data a level of security appropriate for the degree of risk involved with the processing activities described in this Notice. These measures are designed to protect your personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, or alteration as well as unauthorized disclosure or access. The specific measures we employ vary, but typically include, for example, encryption in transit, pseudonymization of identifying data where feasible, controls to limit access to services or systems that contain personal data, and maintaining procedures to handle any suspected security incidents. That said, no security measure is 100% perfect. This means we cannot guarantee the security of your information and, to the extent permitted by law, do not assume any responsibility for the unauthorized use or access to your information under our control

B) Storage and processing

Personal information we collect may be stored and processed for the purposes set out in this Notice in any country in which F3 Games, its subsidiaries, or third-party agents operate. By using our Services, you acknowledge that your personal data may be transferred to recipients in countries that may not offer the same level of privacy protection as the laws in your country of residence or citizenship. In these cases, we will ensure appropriate safeguards to protect your personal data. These safeguards may include compliance with the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses for transfers of personal data. Upon request, we can provide you a copy of the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses and further details on the applicable safeguards
