Grounds for data collection
Processing of your “Personal Data”
(meaning any information which may potentially allow your identification with reasonable means) is necessary
for the performance of our contractual obligations towards you and providing you with our services and the
operation of our website (hereinafter the “Services” and “Website”), to protect our legitimate interests and
for compliance with legal and regulatory obligations to which we are subject.
When you use our Service,
you consent to the collection, storage, use, disclosure and other uses of your Personal Data as described in
this Privacy Policy.
How do we receive data about you?
We receive your Personal
Data from various sources:
1. Registration data – When you voluntarily provide us your personal details
in order to create an account or register to our Services (for example, your name and email address);
2.
When you communicate with us – For example when you send us an email, we collect the Personal Data you
provided us with.
3. Technical data – When operating our services, we use various technological tracking
tools to collect data regarding your use of the Website. Along with our partners, we may use tracking
technologies such as cookies, JavaScript, beacons and Local Storage, which are used to store content data
and preferences. You can learn more about the tracking tools we use by reading the Tracking Technologies
section below.
4. Third party data – We may receive your data from third party providers who help us
with the provision and maintenance of our Services, such as social networks (for example your name and user
name, when you register or log-in to our Service), traffic analytics vendors, fraud prevention agencies and
others.
What type of data we collect?
Personal Data
In the course
of using the Service, we may ask you to provide us with certain Personal Data to provide and improve the
Service, to contact or identify you, to enable you to access certain parts of the Website, and as otherwise
indicated in this Policy. We collect the following Personal Data about you:
• Registration data – your
name, address, your email address, your age range and payment details.
• When using our Services – our
webserver will collect your IP-address and UID.
Non-Personal Data
We also collect data about the use
of our Service and the characteristics and activities of users, in order to operate it and improve it. We
may collect the following non-Personal Data:
• Technical data – this category includes data such as
website visits, the browser you are using and its display settings, your operating system, device type,
session start/stop time, time zone, network connection type (e.g., Wi-Fi, cellular), cookie data and your
general location (city and country).
• Data from third parties – this category includes data we receive
from our business partners. This may include pseudonymous advertiser identifiers that some Advertisers or
other third party ad platforms choose to share with us. This data is also used to enhance data points about
a particular unique browser or device.
If we combine Personal Data with non-Personal Data, the combined
data will be treated as Personal Data. Further Personal Data will only be stored and processed if you
voluntarily provide it to us, e.g. through a contact form.
Tracking Technologies
When you visit or access our Services we
use (and authorize 3rd parties to use) pixels, cookies, events and other technologies. Those allow us to
automatically collect data about you, your device and your online behavior, in order to enhance your
navigation in our Services, improve our Website’s performance, perform analytics and customize your
experience on it. In addition, we may merge data we have with data collected through these tracking
technologies with data we may obtain from other sources and, as a result, such data may become Personal
Data.
We also use a tool called “Google Analytics” to collect data about your use of the Services.
Google Analytics collects data such as how often Users access the Services, what pages they visit when they
do so, etc. We use the data we get from Google Analytics only to improve our Services. Google Analytics
collects the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit, rather than your name or other identifying
data. We do not combine the data collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable
data. Google’s ability to use and share data collected by Google Analytics about your visits to our Services
is restricted by the Google Analytics
Terms of Use and the
Google Privacy Policy.

protecting your password appropriately and limiting access to your account. You will be solely responsible
for keeping your password confidential and for all use of your password and your account, including any
unauthorized use. You should also be aware that there is always some risk involved in transmitting data over
