5. Why We Collect Your Data

(1) GENERAL

When we process or collect your data, we ensure that we have a legal basis to do so. Below, you can find examples of the different purposes for which we process your data and the legal basis we have for each of those reasons:

§ To notify you about changes to the products and Services that we offer and (where you have indicated your consent) to directly market these products and Services to you.

§ To administer our websites for internal operations, including troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, research, statistical and survey purposes.

§ To allow you to participate in interactive features of our products and Services.

§ As part of our efforts to keep our products and Services safe and secure.

§ To measure or understand the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing.

§ To operate and improve our products and Services.

§ To set up and maintain your registration with the Service.

§ To improve customer service.

§ To provide features available in the Service.

§ To audit and analyze the Service.

§ To ensure the technical functionality and security of the Service.

§ To inform you of promotions, rewards, upcoming events, and other news about products and Services.

§ To send you related information, including confirmations, invoices, technical notices, updates, security alerts, and support and administrative messages.

§ For statistical and research purposes (including market research, marketing and data analysis purposes).

(2) MARKETING

Marketing refers to advertising, one of the tools that help fund our Services and enables us to make our games available free of charge. In some of our Games, we may show our own ads and also ads from third parties. We also advertise our Games outside of our Services on third-party properties such as websites or applications. This section provides more information on how we may use your data for advertising purposes, and how you can control the use of your data for these purposes.

Mobile advertising relies on the use of certain online identifiers, especially Advertising IDs and IP addresses or other identifiers. An “Advertising ID” is an alphanumeric string of digits provided by the operating system of your mobile device (e.g. your phone or tablet). It is consistent across applications from different publishers. The Advertising ID is known as the Identifier for Advertisers (“IDFA”) on iOS devices and Google Advertising Identifier (“GAID”) on Android devices. Advertising IDs are used for interest-based advertising and other advertising-related purposes. You can control the extent to which your Advertising ID is used for these purposes. Using the privacy settings on your device, you can typically reset and/or limit the use of your Advertising ID. For example, you can “limit ad tracking” on iOS devices or “opt out of interest-based ads” on Android devices. These settings are specific to each device, which means that you should set them as you prefer on each of your devices individually. It may take some time for your updated settings to take effect.

Please consider that resetting or limiting the use of your Advertising ID will not stop you from seeing ads or necessarily reduce the number of ads you see, but the ads you see may be less relevant to you and will not be served based on your personal data.

① When you see ads in our Games, we may share your Advertising ID and IP address with our advertising partners if you have given your consent to the use of your data for personalized ads. Our advertising partners may also collect non-personal information directly from our games through technologies such as software development kits (SDKs). In each case, they may use such data for a number of purposes, including limiting the number of times you see an ad or personalizing the ads you see to make them more relevant to you (for example, based on the past activity they have associated with your Advertising ID). For more information, please refer to the privacy policies of our advertising partners listed here.

② When you see our ads outside of our Services (for example, on third-party properties such as websites or applications), may base on information such as the past activity they have associated with your Advertising ID, the ad network involved in delivering that ad to you has determined that you may be interested in our Services. When ad networks use your Advertising ID in these ways, they do so based on their respective privacy policies or notices.

Ad networks may also use your data to:

§ Limit the number of times you see our ads.

§ Inform users who have previously played our Games about new content, updates, or other news related to those Games.

§ Refrain from showing our ads to users who already play the Game being advertised.

③ For both ads in our Games and our ads outside of our Services, Advertising IDs or other identifiers are also used for ad measurement, which involves the collection of metrics such as total views, clicks, or installs generated by an ad. Measurement data may be directly or indirectly collected or received by multiple parties involved in ad delivery (including us and our advertising partners), for example, through technologies such as web beacons inserted into ads. This data is used for purposes such as providing measurement services, detecting, investigating, preventing fraud or fraudulent behavior, and settling payments between the parties involved in ad delivery.

6. How Long Do We Keep Your Data

We will keep your data for as long as necessary to achieve the purpose(s) for which it was collected, including to provide you with the Services or to comply with any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. We may periodically delete or de-identify inactive accounts or other data in our Games or other Services. After the applicable retention period required for the safe performance of Services, we will either delete or de-identify your data or, if neither deletion nor de-identification is possible (for example, due to data being stored on a backup server), isolate your data from further processing until deletion or de-identification is possible. We may continue to use data that is not identifiable to you (for example, aggregate data).

7. How We Keep Your Data Safe

Happy Bonbon Studio follows generally accepted industry standards and maintains reasonable safeguards to attempt to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the information in Happy Bonbon Studio’s possession. Only those persons with a need to process your personal data to fulfill their tasks according to the purposes of this Privacy Policy, or with purposes of performing technical maintenance, have access to your personal data in Happy Bonbon Studio’s possession.

Personal data collected by Happy Bonbon Studio is stored in secure operating environments that are not available to the public. To prevent unauthorized online access to personal data, Happy Bonbon Studio maintains personal data behind a firewall-protected server. However, no system can be 100% secure and there is the possibility that despite Happy Bonbon Studio’s reasonable efforts, there could be unauthorized access to your personal data. By using the Services, you assume this risk.

§ The basic information of the user's Facebook account obtained by the application.

(1) Right to access your personal data.

You have a right to know what personal data we hold about you, how and why we handle your personal data. You can ask us for a copy of your personal data and in some cases to have the information communicated to you. If you would like to exercise your right of access please contact us as described below and let us know what information you would particularly like to receive. We reserve the right to ask for reasonable evidence to verify your identity before we provide you with any information.

Please note that we may not be able to provide all the information you ask for, for instance, if the information includes personal information about another person. Where we are not able to provide you with the information that you have asked for, we will endeavor to tell you why.

(2) Right to correct or update your personal data.

You have a right to request an update or correction to any of your personal data which is out of date, incomplete or incorrect.

(3) Right to delete your personal data.

In certain specific circumstances, you have a right to ask us to delete your personal data which we are holding about you. We will pass your request on to other recipients of your personal information unless that is impossible or involves disproportionate effort. If you would like to ask us for further information on the specific circumstances, who the other recipients are, and/or exercise your right to erasure, please contact us.

Please note some things can only be deleted when you delete our Games from your mobile devices and clear our cookies from any device that you have used for our Services. In that case, you will permanently lose all your game progress, virtual currency and virtual goods without the right to data recovery or refund.

Where we delete your personal data, we may still retain some or all of that information for other purposes such as maintaining financial records, protecting or enforcing legal rights, maintaining marketing suppression lists or for technical reasons such as maintaining technical security or our database integrity. We may also retain your information in an anonymized form. In some instances, personal information about you that is visible through gameplay such as username, avatar, your high scores and any chat messages may be cached on other players’ devices and we may not be able to remove or update that data from those devices, for example, if that device is not connected to a network. You can ask us for further information on the specific circumstances and who the other recipients are using the contact details described in Section 13 below.

(4) Right to restriction of processing your personal data.

In certain specific circumstances, you have a right to object to the processing of your personal data based on the grounds of legitimate interests. You can ask us for further information on the specific circumstances using the contact details described in Section 13 below.

(5) Right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data when processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party, except when such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject that require protection of personal data, in particular when the data subject is a child.

(6) Right to opt-out of direct or target interest advertising on mobile applications by checking the privacy settings on your device settings menu. Please note that even if you use your right to opt-out, you will still receive advertising, but not direct or target interest.

(8) Right to withdraw your consent at any time if we are processing your personal data with your consent.

(9) Right to complain to a data protection authority about our collection and use of your personal information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority.

(10) In some instances, our use of your personal data may result in automated decisions being taken (including profiling). Automated decisions mean that a decision concerning you is made automatically on the basis of a computer determination (using software algorithms), without our human review. For example, we use automated decisions to provide direct or targeted interest-based advertising on our Services. You can opt-out of direct or targeted interest-based advertising by following the instructions in Section 10(6) above.

(11) Right to opt-out (California, USA): California residents have the right to opt-out of the sale of personal data, which is defined in a way that may include the transfer of data to third parties to personalize ads for you. If you opt-out of the ‘sale’ of your data, we will not sell your data, including to our advertising partners, but you may still see ads in the game and some of our partners may deliver ads to you, based on information they have about you.

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) gives you the above rights in relation to your personal data. While we will usually not do so, we reserve the right to charge you an appropriate fee for the exercise of your rights where permitted by applicable laws and regulations. If you believe that we have infringed your privacy rights, please contact us so we can try to resolve the issue. If you are an EU resident, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

Happy Bonbon Studio takes children’s privacy seriously, and encourages parents and/or guardians to play an active role in their children's online experience at all times. Happy Bonbon Studio does not knowingly collect any personal information from children below the aforementioned age. If Happy Bonbon Studio learns that we have inadvertently gathered personal data from children under the aforementioned age, we will take reasonable measures to promptly erase such personal data from Happy Bonbon Studio’s records.
