5 – How We Share Your Information
With Epic Arcade Creations Entities
To operate and provide our Services, your personal information may be transferred to other Epic Arcade Creations studios, subsidiaries, affiliates, processors, or third-party partners located globally, as described below (please refer to the section "International Operations and Transfers of Your Information").
With Third Parties
We work with third-party service providers who have limited access to your information to assist with specific functions such as administration, analytics, optimization, advertising, prize fulfillment, marketing support, customer service, and data analysis. These third parties are authorized to use your data solely for these purposes and under strict contractual agreements.
If you use social sharing features, such as “Share” or “Like” on Facebook or other third-party social networks, this may allow personal and non-personal information to be shared between Epic Arcade Creations and those third-party platforms.
We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of such third-party services to better understand their data collection practices.
With Authorities
We may disclose your information to law enforcement authorities if we have a good-faith belief that illegal activity is occurring. This includes investigating or taking action to counter suspected abuse, unauthorized use of our Services, or protecting the safety and property of others. Additionally, we may disclose your information when required by law or court order, particularly in cases involving actual or potential harmful conduct.
In these situations, we will carefully consider applicable local laws, the specifics of the order, and the proportionality of disclosing your information.
In the Event of a Business Transaction
If Epic Arcade Creations undergoes a merger, acquisition, or sale of its assets, your personal information may be transferred as part of the transaction. Customer information, including personal data, is typically considered a business asset and could be transferred to the acquiring entity.
6 – International Operations and Transfers of Your Information
As part of our global operations, Epic Arcade Creations may transfer personal information to our affiliates, which include subsidiaries, parent companies, joint ventures, and other corporate entities under common ownership. These transfers occur as necessary to support our legitimate business activities.
For users located in the European Economic Area ("EEA") or Switzerland, we ensure that personal information transferred outside of these regions is adequately protected. We rely on mechanisms such as the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or other appropriate safeguards as outlined in Article 46 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), to ensure compliance with data protection requirements.
7 – Security and Confidentiality of Your Personal Information
Epic Arcade Creations has implemented robust security measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, loss, alteration, or destruction. We take reasonable precautions, and require applicable third parties to do the same, to safeguard your data and ensure it is used appropriately.
While we employ advanced security protocols, it is important to understand that no data transmission over the internet or wireless network can be guaranteed 100% secure. Therefore, although we are committed to securing your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute protection. We do not accept responsibility for any unauthorized access to or use of your information under our control.
When we engage third-party providers to assist with processing your personal or payment information, we take reasonable steps to ensure they comply with this Privacy Policy and implement adequate safeguards to protect your data.
In the event of a security breach involving your personal or payment information, we will promptly notify you in accordance with applicable data breach notification regulations and take commercially reasonable actions to address and rectify the situation.
If you believe your personal information has been misused by us or any third party, please contact us immediately at aqibkhaliq16@gmail.com.
8 – Children
Epic Arcade Creations encourages parents to educate their children about privacy and the responsible use of personal information online. Children should never disclose personal information, such as their name, address, phone number, or any other identifying details, without prior consent from a parent or guardian.
We define a "child" as any user under the age of 13, unless a more stringent age requirement is specified by local law. In European Union countries, users under the age of 16 are considered children, unless the data protection laws of their specific country set a different age threshold.
If we determine that any of our Services are directed towards users below the minimum legal age in their country of residence, we reserve the right to restrict access to those Services for such users. We may also limit or block the collection of their personal information as described below.
Restrictions for Users Below the Legal Age:
Users under the minimum legal age will not be allowed to display their real names or any personal information within our games.
These users will not have access to features such as chat, leaderboards, forums, or social networking integrations (e.g., Facebook, Game Center).
They will not be able to subscribe to newsletters or use any other features where real-name identification may occur.
We will prevent the collection of precise geolocation data from users in this age group and will display only contextual advertising (excluding any form of behavioral targeting).
In some cases, children may be invited to participate in game playtests with prior parental consent. Depending on local regulations, a parent or guardian’s physical presence may be required during the playtest.
Parents are encouraged to exercise their privacy rights on behalf of their children. For more information, please refer to the "Your Rights" section of this Privacy Policy.
