Our personal data processing activities comply with GDPR's regulations and rely on legal bases such as Article 6(1) (a) and Article 7 for obtaining consent, Article 6(1) (b) for fulfilling contractual obligations and service provision, Article 6(1)(c) for legal obligations, and Article 6(1) (f) for protecting legitimate interests.

Web and App Analytics
Our website uses numerous tracking services and pseudonymized data about member activity to improve our applications, website, resolve issues, and develop the platform and advertising programs (as per Article 6.1.f GDPR). To collect behavioral data, these services use device IDs (for mobile) or device cookies (for desktop), such as the percentage of users who visited our platform and had an account with us or the average time spent on our platform by users.
The registration process may include exchanging data such as your referral source, device settings, user ID for our games, page history, and payment information.
This data is utilized by trackers in one of three methods: to produce a likely behavioral profile of you that will assist them in providing better marketing targeting to service users; to permit us to compensate users based on their performance rather than impressions (performance marketing); or to allow sign-up instances to finance our campaigns.
