  56.     This Privacy Policy explains to you how your personal information is collected and stored and what happens to it regarding The Indie Stone Services. Because we know legal wording isn&#39;t much fun, and certainly not as much fun as being a Community Raccoon, we&#39;ve included a short and informal summary for each section (but the full version is the legally binding one). We&#39;ve flagged these bits by putting <span style="color: #ff0000;">them in a loving, garish red that&#39;s also been put into <strong>bold</strong></span>. If you have any queries you can contact us at <a href="mailto:info@theindiestone.com">info@theindiestone.com</a>.

  113. </p>
  114.  
  115. <p style="margin-left: 40px;">
  116.     Specifically, this Privacy Policy governs personal data (or, in the USA, personally identifiable information) and applicable non-personal information (or, in the USA, non-personally identifiable information), which we collect from you when you are using The Indie Stone Services (&quot;personal data&quot; means information which, on its own or in combination with other information, can be used to identify you).

  124.     <strong>1.4<em>&nbsp;What about children?&nbsp;</em></strong>
  125. </p>
  126.  
  127. <p style="margin-left: 40px;">
  128.     We recognise we have a special obligation to protect personal information obtained from children. Legally you must be at least 13 years old to use The Indie Stone Services (but this might be older depending on whether or not a particular The Indie Stone Service has a required minimum age rating). We do not knowingly collect personal information from any child under the age of 13 without consent from their parent or guardian. If you are a parent or guardian and are concerned about the transfer of personal information about your child, please contact info@theindiestone.com.

  166.  
  167. <p style="margin-left: 40px;">
  168.     When you sign up for, download, use or play The Indie Stone Services then we will collect certain information from you. The information that we collect varies depending on the particular The Indie Stone Services used, but this may include:
  169. </p>
  170.  
  171. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  172.     <strong>A.&nbsp;<u>Technical Details.</u></strong>
  173. </p>
  174.  
  175. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  176.     When you use, play or access The Indie Stone Services, third parties (such as platforms like Steam or GOG) may on our behalf collect technical details about the device you are using, including: internet and/or network connection (including IP address); MAC address, any console device identifier; your operating system, browser type or other software; and your hardware or other technical details.
  177. </p>
  178.  
  179. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  180.     <strong>B. <u>Your Activities.</u></strong>
  181. </p>
  182.  
  183. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  184.     When you use, play or access The Indie Stone Services third parties (such as platforms like Steam or GOG) may on our behalf collect details of how you use our services, including: metrics information about when and how you use the services; traffic data; language preferences; achievements; scores; gameplay statistics; and time spent playing.
  185. </p>
  186.  
  187. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  188.     <strong>C.&nbsp;<u>Your Communications.</u></strong>
  189. </p>
  190.  
  191. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  192.     If you contact us (e.g. via email or call for customer support) or post in chat sessions, forums or other areas of The Indie Stone Services, we may collect and maintain a record of your contact details and the content of your communications.
  193. </p>
  194.  
  195. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  196.     <strong>D.&nbsp;<u>User Accounts and Newsletters.</u></strong>
  197. </p>
  198.  
  199. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  200.     To access certain The Indie Stone Services (e.g. games or forums) you may need to create a user account. Or if you sign up to a newsletter, you will be asked to provide us with certain information. This will be displayed to you at the time you start to use the applicable The Indie Stone Services (e.g. when you sign up for a newsletter) and may include your name, gender, username, age, birthdate, a photo or avatar, email address, country of residence and contact information. <em>Some of the information types referred to above may be collected on an aggregated or anonymised (e.g. hashed) basis, or we may use it or share it in an aggregated or anonymised way, for research or analysis into the way our services operate and are used.</em>
  201. </p>
  202.  
  203. <p style="margin-left: 80px;">
  204.     &nbsp;
  205. </p>
  206.  
  207. <p style="margin-left: 40px;">
  208.     <strong>2.2 <em>What about the storage of payment details?</em></strong>
  209. </p>
  210.  
  211. <p style="margin-left: 40px;">
  212.     The processing and storage of payment details is a matter for the relevant platform and the applicable payment methods/processors. The Indie Stone will not receive, process or store any of your payment details. This is because the payment transactions themselves are completed through the relevant platforms (e.g. Steam, Apple&rsquo;s App Store or Google Play) via the user account you have associated with that platform account. If you make in-game purchases within a The Indie Stone game or product, we are notified by the payment processor once a transaction takes place but we will not receive any of your actual payment details.

  249. </p>
  250.  
  251. <p style="margin-left: 40px;">
  252.     The information we hold will primarily be stored and processed in the EU, but there may be circumstances where we need to work with trusted third parties outside of the EU in order to provide The Indie Stone Services to you (e.g. where we run game servers in the US). By submitting your personal information, you explicitly agree to such transfer, storing or processing of data outside the EU. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that this information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. All information we hold is stored on our secure servers which we own or license from appropriate third parties. We use industry standard procedures and security standards to prevent unauthorised access to our servers, however no online service or website can be completely secure, so please protect the account information in your possession as well.

  408.     <strong>7.3</strong> <strong>Under California law:</strong> California residents who have an established business relationship with us have the right to request certain information with respect to the types of personal information we have shared with third parties for their direct marketing purposes, and the identities of those third parties, within the immediately preceding calendar year, subject to certain exceptions. All requests for such information must be in writing and sent to:&nbsp;The Indie Stone Ltd of Northern Design Centre Abbott&#39;s Hill, Baltic Business Quarter, Gateshead, Tyne And Wear, NE8 3DF, United Kingdom. This same California law permits us to provide you, in response to your written request, with a cost-free means to choose not to have your information shared rather than providing the above described information. You may exercise that choice by contacting us at the address above.

  448.     Possibly, but if we do we will make the changed Privacy Policy available online, make reasonable efforts to notify you of this and update the &ldquo;Last updated&rdquo; date. Once we change the Privacy Policy, it will become legally binding on you as of the date of publication (i.e. the new &ldquo;Last updated&rdquo; date). You are welcome to contact us if you have specific questions about the changes at <a href="mailto:info@theindiestone.com">info@theindiestone.com</a>. If you do not agree to those changes, regardless of whether you email us then unfortunately you must cease using all The Indie Stone Services.
