Hosting and content delivery

Governor of Poker 3 is hosted by external companies providing web servers and web content delivery. Every time you make a request, for example by clicking on a link on our platform, the information allowing this request (e.g. device information and information on requested content) will be sent to the external servers. This data is used to show you the content you requested in a faster way. We process this data on the basis of our legitimate interest, to provide and improve our service and ensure its functionality.

Age gating and consent

When you visit Governor of Poker 3 for the first time, we will ask you to fill in your age. Only if you indicate being at least 18 years of age, you will be able to proceed with your registration and to provide your consent for our advertising and profiling activities, obtained via a consent pop-up. We use your age data to ensure that only users of at least 18 years of age play Governor of Poker 3 and that no personal data belonging to minors is processed except for that data that is strictly necessary to make the Service Websites work. This data is not stored and is not shared with other parties. Only the information whether you are at least 18 years of age, and whether and to which purposes you gave your consent will be stored, based on our legitimate interests.

For iOS applications, with iOS 14.5 update, Apple introduced App Tracking Transparency Framework (ATT) which requires apps to ask for the permission of users if the app will access IDFA (“The Identifier for Advertisers”) of the users for the purposes of tracking including showing personalized advertising. Such permission is requested from users via a pop-up (ATT pop-up). When you start the Governor of Poker 3 iOS app for the first time, you will see the ATT pop-up. Based on your choice we can receive your IDFA from Apple or not. The pop-up is managed by Apple and we can only change the information you see on the ATT pop-up. Therefore, if you would like to learn more about how ATT pop-ups work, we recommend you to read Apple's policies. Please note that we still show our own consent pop-up in the iOS app after the ATT pop-up in order to ask your consent for additional purposes and to inform you in a more detailed way about our data collection practices.

Creation/administration of your account

In order to play Governor of Poker 3, you have to create an account. We store your log-in data (your nickname, email address and password) to allow you to log in on different devices, based on the performance of a contract. If you choose to register using your e.g. Facebook, Plinga, Apple, Google, Microsoft, Samsung Galaxy or Huawei account, or enter our game from a third-party platform (e.g. Plinga, Facebook, Steam, Microsoft Store, Huawei Appgallery, Samsung Galaxy Store or Google), we may receive certain information about you from the respective third-party provider like e.g. your name, your authentication token, you profile picture, your email address, and a list of your friends that also play the game. This information will be stored in your Governor of Poker 3 account. If the third-party platform has an achievements system to measure and show you your achievements in the games you play, and only if you have provided your consent to the third-party platform provider, we will send event data (for example, that you reached a certain level in Governor of Poker 3) to the third-party platform provider so that this information will also be stored in your profile on the third-party platform. Please note that you can use our Services as a visitor. In that case, we do not ask for an email address, we only require your nickname and device identifier which will be combined with your account ID.

Customer service

If you contact us for customer support using the contact feature within the game, an external customer service provider will process the content of your request. As a first step, we will try to provide you with general information from our “Frequently Asked Questions” feature (FAQ), based on the keywords from your request. For example, if you have asked for information related to your account (e.g. on how to make changes in your account settings), we will suggest articles from our FAQ which contain account-related information (e.g. on why your account was blocked or on how to disconnect your Governor of Poker 3 account from Facebook). If the suggested articles from our FAQ do not contain the information you were looking for, we may ask you to provide your name and your email address in order to help you with your request.

This information will be processed together with your user ID (including segment), the last steps taken within the game, and device data (such as device model, battery status, free storage, device language, operating system version, carrier and platform). The request history will be stored in order to solve newer requests based on the information related to your previous request (generally for account lifetime). Please note that if the request and correspondence with customer support is considered to be necessary for prevention of a crime, facilitation of an investigation related to public safety, protection of the security or integrity of our Service, or enable us to take precautions against liability or to protect our rights, we can store your request history based on statutory period in the Netherlands. We process this data on the basis of the performance of a contract in order to provide you with our customer service.

Analytics

We use analytics services to understand which features you like in Governor of Poker 3 and how you use them. For this purpose, we process purchase events (the amount spent within the game), the purchase segment, the level you reached within the game, your session time, which saloons you played in, how many hands you played, whether you won or lost the game, the features you used (e.g. teams or chats), and how many friends you have in the game. We combine this information with campaign data (including the advertisement device ID, install data, your country and language, the campaign ID, and your user ID) to get an insight into campaign results and to create user segments for new user acquisition and remarketing purposes.

The use of analytics services also helps us to improve the game for you, to find crashes and issues in the game, and to improve the performance of our websites/apps. For this purpose, we process crash information, ANR information (the situation if the game freezes), and device information (battery, Wifi situation, CPU, memory). When you play Governor of Poker 3 from Microsoft Store, Microsoft can provide us data about the performance of the game and any problems you experience, including error reports. Error reports (also known as “crash dumps”) can include details of your software or hardware related to an error. This data will be used solely for finding and fixing bugs and errors and improving the game overall. Please note that we receive crash dumps from other platforms that our game is offered (e.g. Apple App Store and Google Play Store).

We also use Facebook Insights, an analytics service provided by Facebook and implemented through the Facebook SDK (SDK is a collection of software programs for the purpose of creating applications across web and/or mobile platforms for a particular operating system) which allows Facebook to collect your Personal Data when you play Governor of Poker 3. Facebook’s analytics service combines your in-game data (such as the level you reached and the amount you spent within the game), the purchase segment, campaign data (creative views of and clicks on advertisements, advertisement Device ID, installs, your country and language, the campaign ID and your user ID), the session amount and session time, with Facebook's data about demographic data (for example your age, gender, country or language and likes) that Facebook knows from your Facebook profile.

Facebook processes this information to check the Facebook profiles of the respective users for common characteristics of these users (for example, hobbies or the user’s location, using data available only to Facebook and which is not shared with us) and to find similar new users ('lookalikes') which are likely to be interested in our game. These similar users will be shown advertisements (banners/videos) for Governor of Poker 3 to encourage them to click the advertisements and install Governor of Poker 3 through the app- store.

Campaign validation and fraud prevention: In order to prevent fraud and analyze our campaigns we send campaign data we receive from our user acquisition partners in connection with the acquisition of new users (views, clicks and installs, campaign ID) together with analytics reports relating to the game usage to our internal user acquisition service.
