General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
What the GDPR is
The GDPR is a new data protection law in the EU which describes how personal data should be collected, stored and processed.
The GDPR is a big improvement for customers by giving them insights into how their data is stored and processed.
What personal data we collect and why
When you register
- Email address: this is either the email address that you entered
yourself, or the email address that is associated with your Google or Facebook account. We use this
email to send you important information about your account and to prevent abuse of the
system by only allowing each email address to be used once.
- Username: this is the public visible username which is used by other
players in the game to identify you.
- Gender (optional): during the registration process you optionally enter
your gender. We use this information to award you with in game cosmetics which we think are
fitting for your gender. For example female users may receive more dress items, where as
male players may receive beard items.
When you make a purchase
- Google or Apple purchase order number: this information is used to prevent abuse of the system by allowing
each order to be used only once.
