6.2. List of rights under GDPR

You have the right to have inaccurate personal data rectified, or completed.

If you can not change such personal information on your Account page, email us at [email protected] with subject “Update My Data”. You are responsible for keeping your personal information up-to-date.

6.2.4. The right to erasure

You have the right to have personal data erased. The right to erasure is also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’. The right is not absolute and only applies in certain circumstances.

If you want your account to be closed and your personal data deleted, email us at [email protected] with the subject “Account erasure”. Please include your account details like: username, email address and/or your social network ID for the social network from which you access our Services. We will respond to your request within thirty days.

The user must contact us at [email protected] by sending us an official request to delete an account from the email address he/she used to register in the VIP Hearts platform, confirming in the same email the name of the account he/she wishes to be deleted.

If the user has not linked their in-game account to their email, but has used another registration method, they must add an email address as an additional method to log in to their account so that we can use this email address as an official channel to communicate with them on issues related to his personal data and requests to delete his account.
After adding an email to his account, he may request deletion, export of data or other actions related to his personal data by writing to us at [email protected] from the email address added to his account and confirming the username of the in-game account, which he wishes to be deleted.

Upon receipt of a request to delete an account at another email address, the user is notified that a formal request to delete the account can only be accepted at [email protected] in order to be transferred to the department authorized to deal with personal data and its deletion. If the user does not send an email to [email protected] with the necessary details to confirm his account, his request is not considered received and will not be processed.

The term for processing a request for deleting an account is the legally established term of 30 calendar days from the date of sending the confirmation by us. Before deleting the account, a member of the department authorized to work with personal data checks all the information provided by the user, as well as his last activity in the platform VIP Hearts.
In case of recent activity data – games played, successful or unsuccessful attempts to purchase in the platform store or other type of activity that certifies the use of the account after sending the request, a member of our team may request additional confirmation of account deletion, as the user may have changed his mind and did not want to delete it.

The reasons that could lead to an extension of the period for deleting the account are:

  • Recent activity related to changes in the player’s profile – uploaded photos, changed status, change of username;
  • Games played after receipt of the request;
  • Attempts to make purchases or successful purchases in the platform store;
  • Lack of feedback, or delayed response, when an additional request is made to clarify the identity of the user or the terms of the request for exercise of rights.

6.2.5. The right to restrict processing

You have the right to request the restriction or suppression of use of personal data.
This is not an absolute right and only applies in certain circumstances. When processing is restricted, we are permitted and may store the personal data, but not use it.

If you want to stop receiving promotional emails from us and our partners or third-party, click on the “unsubscribe” link in the email. If you want to withdraw your consent about receiving any personalized offers, you may do so by changing your Account settings. If you do not want to receive notifications, you can turn them off by visiting your mobile device’s “settings” page.

6.2.6. The right to data portability

You have the right to obtain and reuse your personal data for your own purposes across different services. The right only applies to information that you have provided to us.

  • direct marketing (including profiling);
  • processing for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics.

6.2.8. Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling.

If you do not want to be subject of profiling, you may opt-out in your Account settings.

6.3. Third-Party Targeted Advertising

If you chose opt-out from seeing “interest based” targeted web advertising, delivered by third parties, you may visit listed third-party websites. These websites are operated by third parties. We do not control or operate them.

If you chose opt-out from seeing “interest based” targeted in-application advertisements, delivered by third parties, you may adjusting the ad tracking settings on your mobile device. Most modern mobile devices (iOS 6, Android 2.3, and Windows 10 and above) provide advertising identifiers. These identifiers have different names depending on the brand of mobile device. For example, they are called Google Advertising ID (GAID) on Android devices and on iOS, they are called Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA). These operating systems let you see your advertising identifier in the settings of your mobile device, and your control how it is used.

Please note that you may still receive advertisements from third parties within our Products even if you opt-out of targeted advertising but they will not be based on your activity across unrelated web sites or apps.
