Under the Licence Agreement, the User is entitled to make use of the Games in their current version.

The User exempts Geocats from all liability, including compensation for damages, in relation to claims brought by other Users or third parties for a violation of their rights caused by the User’s behaviour or the Content or data that the User has posted. The User shall also bear the reasonable costs arising from this situation, in particular those arising from the need to engage a legal defence. All other rights and claims for damages to which Geocats is entitled shall remain unaffected. The aforementioned obligations shall not apply if the User is not the person responsible for the infringement of rights. 

 

Right of withdrawal, returns and complaints

 

The User may exercise their right of withdrawal within a maximum period of 14 calendar days from the time of purchase of the Game(s), which must be exercised directly against Geocats; however, in compliance with current European regulations, the User may not exercise their right of withdrawal if within 14 calendar days from the purchase of the Game(s) they have activated the code received with the purchase after downloading the App. In this case, the right of withdrawal will not apply and the purchase price or equivalent compensation will not be refunded. 

 

Users who wish to exercise their right of withdrawal with respect to the purchase made, must in any case follow the following steps:

  1. The exercise of the right of withdrawal must be made by written notification, by sending an email to hello@geocats.app or by using the withdrawal form (enable direct hyperlink). 
  2. Once the request to exercise the right of withdrawal has been received, the system will send an email confirming that the request has been received. Subsequently, if the requirements for the exercise of the right of withdrawal are met (not exceeding the period of 14 calendar days from the purchase or having activated the Game code) Geocats will proceed to refund the amount paid within a maximum period of 14 calendar days from the time of receipt of the purchased product. In any case, the payment of the economic amounts will be made through the means used by the User to make the initial payment, unless the User states otherwise, in which case additional costs may be incurred.

IV. General information on data processing

1. Scope of the processing of personal data

Generally speaking, we only store personal data that you disclose when you use the Services as part of your access or registration and possibly during your use of paid services. Personal data is data that contains information about personal or factual circumstances. When you access and register as a user on our website, you only need to provide an email address and, if applicable, a username and passport. When you register for certain Services, email addresses are not collected at the time of registration, but are collected later during your use of the Service. The password is kept in encrypted form, thus avoiding possible interference with the actual password.

In order to enforce the user agreement concluded, in particular in the context of the Payment Services you have chosen, you may be asked to disclose other information, such as your full name, postal address, account details, credit card digits, etc. At times you may also be asked to provide personal information such as your name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number for the purpose of processing your requests or providing technical support. Discovery City will handle this data confidentially and in compliance with the legal data protection provisions. In principle, Discovery City will not disclose this information to third parties without your permission, unless this is necessary for the implementation and execution of the contract, for the processing of your requests or to provide you with technical support, or in the case of legal permission.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the data subject’s consent to the processing of personal data concerning him or her, Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) shall serve as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data for the purpose of the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party shall be Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. This provision shall also apply to processing required for the performance of pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation applicable to our company, the legal basis shall be Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.

If we are obliged to process personal data in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, Article 6(1)(d) of the GDPR shall serve as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary for the legitimate interests of our enterprise or a third party, provided that the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the aforementioned interests, Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR shall serve as a legal basis.

3. Data deletion and retention period

The data subject’s personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which they were collected no longer exists. In addition, retention may be required if this is stipulated by European or national legislators in EU regulations, laws or other regulations that apply to the data controller. Blocking or deletion of data may also occur when the retention period required by the above-mentioned regulations expires, unless the data are required to be retained for a longer period for the purpose of concluding or performing a contract.

4. Data security

Discovery City will use its best efforts to prevent unauthorised access to, use or falsification of your personal data and to minimise the risks involved. However, the provision of personal information, regardless of whether it is provided in person, by telephone or over the Internet, always involves risks, and no technological system is completely secure from tampering or computer sabotage.

Discovery City will treat all information it collects about you in accordance with applicable data protection laws in Spain and Europe. In this respect, all our employees are obliged to comply with the legal provisions on data protection and data confidentiality. Your data will be transferred via an SSL encryption methodology.

If an error occurs during your use of our Services and we wish to rectify it, we may also collect other information, such as player ID and user name.

 

2. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary retention of data and log files is laid down in Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

3. Purpose of data processing

It is necessary for the system to temporarily retain the IP address in order to provide the Services to the user’s computer equipment. For this purpose, it will be necessary to retain the IP address throughout the session.

The retention in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the Services. We also use the data to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our IT systems. The evaluation of data for marketing purposes is not covered in this context. We only perform a statistical evaluation of the data sets.

Discovery City reserves the right to retain IP addresses and log files for a maximum period of 30 days after use of the website for the purpose of ensuring compliance with the terms of use and game rules. In particular, this procedure will be used to prevent or resolve any misuse, and for this purpose data will be passed on a case-by-case basis to the investigating authorities. Irrespective of the above, any further data analysis will be carried out in anonymised form as far as possible. When this period expires, the IP address and log files will be deleted completely, unless there are legal retention obligations or a criminal prosecution or misuse investigation is ongoing.

4. Google Firebase

a) Description and scope of data processing

Google Firebase is a service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, 4 Barrow Street, Dublin, Ireland). Firebase is a web and mobile application development platform. Firebase provides a software development kit (SDK). The service uses the Firebase SDK which we have implemented in the game code. The SDK sends general information and data requested by the Firebase add-on services we use to the Google server and stores it there. Firebase provides tools and infrastructure to enable simple and more efficient functionality through cross-platform programming interfaces. For data protection reasons, we do not use all Firebase add-on services. We use the following services: Firebase Realtime Database, Firebase Hosting and Crashlytics. We use Google’s Firebase Realtime Database to track game events across all mobile devices to create user-related activity statistics. These statistics include average play time and statistical value failures. We use Firebase Hosting to create and send pop-up messages to the player. We use Crashlytics to measure the stability and compatibility of our current version of the game.

b) Legal basis for data processing

The data processing by Firebase Realtime Database, Firebase Hosting and Crashlytics is based on legal grounds, such as the performance of the contract, ensuring the functioning, availability and playability of the games for all players in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. We have also entered into a data processing agreement with Google.

c) Purpose of data processing

Firebase services are essential to the operation of our games. Firebase measures game performance on different device versions and player reaction to version changes, etc. Crashlytics is necessary to increase the stability of our games and improve performance by obtaining system information and game data from a device when a crash occurs. Firebase Realtime Database helps us to understand general user behaviour. It allows us to get a statistical overview of how many players have logged some kind of progress in the game or purchased premium services in the shop and define the specific category of behaviour we want to monitor. This information helps us to refine, improve and edit the game for the benefit of the players. We use Firebase Hosting to send messages to the player and to improve the user experience when adapting our games.

d) Conservation period

Google will retain personal data for a maximum period of fourteen months or for as long as is necessary to provide its services to you.DiscoveryCity will not retain any personal data unless you have actively communicated with us.

e) Opposition and suppression

You can opt-out of processing, object to processing or request deletion of your data in our privacy settings.

XIII. Use of third-party advertising services

1. General information

This website may occasionally contain third party advertisements and interactive links to third party websites for which we assume no responsibility. In particular, we have no control over the content or design of linked external sites or pages to which you may be directed from them. The respective providers are solely responsible for the content and design of such websites and for compliance with data protection regulations. Advertisers may from time to time use technologies that send advertisements appearing on our websites directly to your browser by automatically transmitting your IP address. These advertisers sometimes also use cookies and other technical means to measure the effectiveness of their advertising or to optimise their content. This applies in particular, but not exclusively, to the classification of websites for certain interest categories in relation to your use of the Internet. No link will be established between this information and your name, postal address, telephone number or e-mail address. We have no control over this. The handling of your data by such third parties is therefore excluded by this data protection declaration. For more information on the respective data protection policies of these providers, you should contact them directly. You can deactivate the use of cookies in your browser settings (as explained above).

We send your anonymised device identifier (Apple Advertising Identifiers (IDFA) or Google Advertising Identifiers (GAID)) to some of our business partners within and outside Europe (e.g. in the USA) in order to generate targeted advertising with the help of our partners or to exclude users from certain advertising campaigns. You can revoke your consent to the collection, storage and transfer of your data by adjusting the settings on your mobile device as described above.

3. Facebook Pixel

Due to our legitimate interests in the analysis, optimisation and efficient operation of our services, and with a view to pursuing these purposes, our services use a tracking tool known as “Facebook Pixel”, which is provided by the social network Facebook, itself operated by Facebook Inc. with registered office at 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA, or, if you are resident in the EU, by Facebook Ireland Ltd., with registered office at 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”).

The Facebook Pixel is a piece of code that is placed on our website.

The Facebook Pixel allows Facebook to identify visitors to our online content as a target group for displaying advertising to you (known as “Facebook ads”). We therefore use Facebook Pixel to show our ads served on Facebook only to Facebook users who have shown interest in our services or who share a set of factors (who show interest in certain topics or products, based on the web pages they visit), which we pass on to Facebook (known as “custom audiences”). Facebook Pixel also helps us to understand the effectiveness of Facebook ads for market analysis and statistical purposes by showing whether users have been redirected to our services after clicking on a Facebook ad (known as “conversion”, which allows us to determine on which devices a user performs an action) in order to create so-called “analogous audiences” or “statistical twins” (i.e. targeting ads to similar target groups as existing customers) and to obtain comprehensive statistics on website usage. Facebook Pixel establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers when you visit our website. In this way, the Facebook server receives notice that you have visited our website and Facebook assigns this information to your personal Facebook user account.

Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and therefore ensures compliance with European data protection laws https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active.

 

For more information about Facebook’s collection and use of data as well as your data protection rights and choices, please see Facebook’s data protection policy at: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/update. For more details and specific information about Facebook Pixel and how it works, please visit Facebook’s help section at https://www.facebook.com/business/help/651294705016616. You can disable this feature as explained at: https://de-de.facebook.com/business/help/1415256572060999?helpref=uf_permalink or at: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads. To do so, you must be logged into Facebook.

  3. for reasons of public interest in the field of public health pursuant to Article 9(2)(h) and (i) and Article 9(3) of the GDPR;
  4. for archiving, scientific or historiographical research or statistical purposes in the public interest pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in paragraph 1 would make impossible or seriously impede the achievement of the purposes of such processing, or
  5. for the formulation, exercise or defense of claims.

5. Right of communication

If you exercise your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing with the data controller, the data controller is obliged to communicate any rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data have been disclosed, unless this is impossible or would entail disproportionate cost.

You have the right to be informed by the data controller about these recipients.

6. Right to data portability

You have the right to receive personal data about you that you have provided to the controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable form. You also have the right to transmit them to another controller without being prevented from doing so by the controller to whom you have provided them, where:

  1. the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, and
  2. the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have your personal data transmitted directly from controller to controller where technically possible. These actions may not adversely affect the freedoms and rights of other persons.

The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data which are necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or for the exercise of a public authority vested in the controller.

7. Right to object

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f), including profiling on the basis of those provisions.

The controller shall cease processing your personal data unless he or she establishes compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of claims.

Where the processing of your personal data is for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data, including profiling insofar as it is related to such marketing.

Where you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for such purposes.

In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by using automated means which use technical specifications.

8. Right to withdraw consent under data protection laws

You have the right to revoke a declaration of consent that you have previously given at any time in accordance with data protection laws. The revocation of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of data processing that has taken place prior to such revocation.

 

9. Automated individual decisions, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which is likely to have a legal effect on you or similarly significantly affect you. The above provision shall not apply if the decision:

  1. is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and a controller;
  2. is authorised by Union or Member State law which applies to the controller and which also provides for appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or
  3. is based on your explicit consent.

The decisions referred to in paragraph 2 shall not be based on the special categories of personal data referred to in Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to safeguard their rights and freedoms and legitimate interests.

In the cases referred to in points (1) and (3) above, the controller shall take appropriate measures to safeguard his or her rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention by the controller, to express his or her own point of view and to challenge the decision.

10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy that may be available to you, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, namely an authority in the Member State where you are habitually resident, work or where the alleged breach has occurred if you have reason to believe that the processing of your personal data is in breach of the GDPR.

The supervisory authority to which you have submitted the complaint will inform the complainant about the progress and outcome of your complaint, as well as the possibility to seek judicial protection under Article 78 of the GDPR.
