III. General information on data processing
We use so-called cookies, which are text files or pixels, that are stored on the user’s display device. This concerns technologies that can be used to collect certain user-specific settings and technical information with which the user can be identified. Device identifiers and other means that work in the same way can also be considered “cookies” moving forward as far as they serve the same purpose.
We employ cookies in order to make our services more user friendly. Some elements of our services require that the user can be identified. We also use cookies that allow us to analyze the behavior of the user. Additionally, we use cookies to target advertisements. Cookies are stored on the user’s display device.
There are permanent cookies that are stored for a longer period of time on your display device and session cookies that are temporarily stored on your display device and erased after the service is provided.
We use strictly necessary cookies, functional cookies, performance cookies and marketing cookies. Cookies are placed on your device only if you consent, unless cookies are strictly necessary cookies. However, note that if you do not consent to the use of cookies, certain functions of the website may not function properly.
(i) Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are necessary to use our services. Without these necessary cookies, it is possible that we will not be able to provide you certain services or features or that the services will not be depicted correctly.
(ii) Functional cookies. Functional cookies enable us to recognize your settings and provide you with advanced and better adapted features, such as a personal adjustment of services, recognizing whether we have asked you certain things, or you have requested other services.
All of these features help us to improve the services for you.
(iii) Performance cookies. Performance cookies are also sometimes called analytics cookies, collect information on your use of services, and enable us to improve the functionality of our services.
For example, performance cookies show us which pages are used most often, how the entire usage pattern of the services looks, help us to detect problems with the use of services, and determine whether our advertising is presented effectively or not.
(iv) Marketing cookies. We and our service providers can employ targeting or advertising cookies in order to show you promotions that are better adjusted to your interests and preferences.
We can use targeting or advertising by the means of cookies in order to limit the number of identical advertisements that are shown to you with our services, or to determine or increase the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.
These cookies show, for example, what action you have taken in the game and what banner you have clicked on before playing our game. We share this information on a pseudonymized basis with advertising clients. The display of advertising supports operations and the further development of our services.
We also use cookies as means of counting the number of events like registrations or purchases that we share with marketing partners who then will optimize and/or invoice us accordingly.
When starting to use our services, the user is informed about the use of cookies. If the user does not wish for our cookies to be stored on his device, would like to delete a stored cookie, or would like to be informed about the storage of such, the user can configure his device accordingly. The details of how these are applied can be found using the help information of the browser or mobile device.
We would like to explicitly state that, in this case, not all functions of the services can be used in their entirety. If you access our services via third parties, it may be the case that they use cookies.
We have no influence on this. Please note the data protection guidelines of these third parties.
IV. Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for processing personal data when using cookies is Art 6.1.a GDPR, Article 5 of the EU ePrivacy Directive and Section 25 of TTDSG (Telekommunikation-Telemedien-Datenschutzgesetz).
V. Purpose of data processing
The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use. Some functions of our software cannot be provided without the use of cookies. The user data collected via technically necessary cookies are not used to create user profiles. Analytics cookies are used for the purpose of improving the quality of our services and their contents. Via these analytics cookies, we learn how the services are used and can thus constantly optimize our products. For these purposes, we are allowed to process personal data according to relevant regulations because those are necessary cookies. Additionally, we have interests in directing advertising to our services and in finding new customers. In order to achieve this, our advertising partners use cookies basing on your consent according to Art 6.1.a GDPR, Article 5 of the EU Privacy Directive and Section 24 of TTDSG (Telekommunikation-Telemedien-Datenschutzgesetz).
VI. Expiration of the cookies used
There are two main types of cookies; session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are temporary and only remain on your computer or device from the point at which you visit our site until you close your browser or application upon when they are deleted from you device, whereas persistent cookies remain stored on your device until deleted, or until they reach their expiry date, and are activated each time you visit our site.
VII. Option to object and erase
Cookies are saved on the user’s device and sent to us from it. Therefore, as the user, you also have full control on the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your internet browser or mobile device, you can deactivate or limit the transmission of cookies. Cookies that have already been saved can be erased at any time. This can also occur automatically. If cookies are deactivated, it may be the case that not all of the functions of the services can be used in their entirety.

We may make changes to this Cookie Policy from time to time at our discretion. The revision date at the top of this Policy will be amended accordingly. Any such changes shall be effective as to you and your information as of that revision date. You are therefore advised to check this page from time to time.
In the event of any conflict between the current version of this Cookie Policy and any previous version(s), the provisions current and in effect shall prevail unless it is expressly stated otherwise.
