The personal data that we collect through our Services may include information that is requested from time to time, such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, IP addresses and more. If we combine personal data with non-personal data, as long as they are combined, we will treat them as personal data.

We may disclose your data to the following categories of recipients:

Service providers and other third parties who provide services to us or on our behalf, such as hosting and maintenance, analytics, marketing and advertising, payment processing and customer support. These third parties may be located outside the European Economic Area and in countries that do not provide the same level of data protection as the country where you are located. We ensure that any transfer of data to a third party is done in accordance with applicable law and that appropriate safeguards are in place.

Government authorities, law enforcement agencies and other public authorities, if we are required to do so by law or if such disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or the rights of any third party, or to detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.

Any other third party, with your explicit consent.

Where is the data stored?

Your data may be stored on servers located in different countries, depending on the location of our service providers and the location of the data subjects.

How do we protect the data?

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform where we can offer our Services to you. Your data may be stored through the data storage, databases and general applications of our hosting provider. He stores your data on secure servers behind a firewall and provides secure HTTPS access to most areas of his Services.

Category: User accepts payments/eCom

All payment methods offered by us and our hosting provider for our digital assets comply with the requirements of the PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) of the PCI Security Standards Council. This is the collaboration of brands such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card data (including physical, electronic, and procedural measures) by our shop and service providers.

Category: Always

Despite the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and do not guarantee absolute protection and security of the data you upload, publish, or otherwise share with us or others.

For this reason, we ask that you use secure passwords and, if possible, do not provide us or others with confidential information that you believe could be significantly or permanently harmful if disclosed. Since email and instant messaging are not considered secure communication methods, we also ask that you do not share confidential information via these channels.

Our services are not intended for users who have not reached the legal age of majority. We will not knowingly collect data from children. If you are not yet of legal age, you should not download or use our services and should not provide us with any information.

We reserve the right to request proof of age at any time in order to verify that minors are not using our services. If we become aware that a minor is using our services, we may deny access to our services and block such user, and we may delete any data we have stored about such user.

Category: User collects data from minors

Children may use our services, but may need to provide certain information in order to access certain features. Some data (including data collected through cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies) may be collected automatically. If we knowingly collect, use, or disclose data collected from a child, we will do so in accordance with applicable law and will obtain parental consent. We do not require a child to provide more personal information than is reasonably necessary for the child to participate in any online activity. We use the data we collect about a child only for the purposes of the services the child has requested.

We may also use a parent's contact information to communicate with the parent about the child's activities on our services. Parents may review the data we have collected from their child, instruct us not to collect any further data from their child, and request that we delete any data we have collected from their child.

Please contact us to review, update, or delete your child's data. To protect your child's privacy, we may require proof of your identity. We may deny access to data if we have doubts about your identity. Please note that certain data may not be deleted due to other legal obligations.

the use of your personal data is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided that this is always done in a manner that is proportionate and respects your data protection rights).
