\u00a0(Last Updated: October 9, 2024)<\/span><\/p>\n What we Consider Your Personal Information<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n This covers information that directly identifies you: name, email, physical address, etc. Some laws also include things like your device ID or gamer tag if these can be easily linked back to you, so we consider that, too.<\/span><\/p>\n What we DON\u2019T Consider your Personal Information<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n General gameplay data. Things like your favourite character choice, level of difficulty you play, time spent in-game\u2026 these help us improve our games and your experience, but aren\u2019t tied to you as a real person.<\/span><\/p>\n Business contact info. If you work at a game publication and reach out from your work email, that\u2019s different from your private gamer account.<\/span><\/p>\n Truly anonymous stuff. Surveys where we never ask for your name, aggregated numbers on how players beat a boss, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n Here\u2019s the important part!<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n We only collect your personal information for specific reasons (account creation, support tickets, merch purchases, newsletters, bug reporting, etc.) and we promise to be open about it (and careful!). Laws about online privacy are always changing, and we\u2019ll try our best to keep up and adjust this policy when needed.<\/span><\/p>\n At the end of the day, it\u2019s YOUR data. You\u2019ll always have options to see what we collect, request changes, or ask us to delete it within reason.<\/span><\/p>\n And as a general rule, be smart about what info you share in public chats or on profiles others can see. We will NEVER ask you for personal information in a game chat, for instance. Be safe\u2013if you\u2019re not sure, reach out to us directly at <\/span>privacy@braceyourselfgames.com<\/span><\/a> and we\u2019ll help you out!<\/span><\/p>\n The rest of this document goes into more details. We aim for clarity, but full legal accuracy sometimes gets technical. Questions? Contact us here: <\/span>privacy@braceyourselfgames.com<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n All right, on to the legalese!<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n This privacy policy (this \u201cPolicy\u201d) describes the practices of Brace Yourself Games Inc. and its corporate affiliates (collectively, \u201cwe\u201d, \u201cus\u201d, \u201cour\u201d) with respect to our collection, use, storage and disclosure of personal information provided to us from users of (a) the websites operated at <\/span>www.braceyourselfgames.com<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>www.necrodancer.com<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>www.phantombrigade.com<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>www.industriesoftitan.com<\/span><\/a> and such other web locations associated with our products as made available from time to time (collectively, the \u201cWebsite\u201d), (b) any game, \u201capp\u201d or other front-end software provided by us (for greater certainty, excluding third party software that may interact with the Website or the Service, as defined below) that interacts or interfaces with the Website (the \u201cSoftware\u201d), and (c) the services we provide through the Website and\/or the Software (collectively, with the provision of the Software, the \u201cService\u201d). It also describes the choices available to you regarding our use of your personal information and how you can access and update this information.<\/span><\/p>\n We respect and uphold individual rights to privacy and the protection of personal information.\u00a0 We know how important it is to protect your personal information and want to make every customer experience safe and secure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We will only collect, use or disclose personal information in accordance with this Policy, and in accordance with laws applicable to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information by us (\u201cApplicable Privacy Laws\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n a. Personal Information<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n For the purposes of this Policy, \u201cpersonal information\u201d means any information about an individual that could be used to identify an individual.\u00a0 Examples of personal information include, for example, an individual\u2019s name, home address, telephone number, e-mail address, social insurance number, sex, income and family status. Applicable Privacy Laws for your region may contain more robust definitions (including exclusions). Please consult those for more information..<\/span><\/p>\n b. Non-Personal Information<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Applicable Privacy Laws may allow for some exceptions to what is considered personal information.\u00a0 \u201cNon-personal information\u201d is any type of information other than personal information, and is excluded from this Policy. For example, non-personal information would include reasonably available business information, or information that enables an individual to be contacted at a place of business, for example an employee\u2019s name, position or title, business telephone number, or business address. Non-personal information also includes information that is anonymous or not about an identifiable individual, such statistical information about web browsing (such as the domains used to access the Website, or the type and version of devices, browsers or operating systems being used to access the Service), or aggregate information that anonymizes the underlying data (like the number of visitors, what pages users visit, average time spent on the Website or on various parts of the Service). We will collect, use or disclose non-personal information in accordance with our ordinary business practices, but always in accordance with any applicable laws. This Policy, however, only covers our collection, use and disclosure of personal information.<\/span><\/p>\n c. Information about Minors Under 13 Years of Age<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n This site is intended solely for users who are 13 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information about any person under the age of 13, and no such person, nor any parent or guardian as it relates to such person, should submit their personal information to us for any reason. <\/span>Please do not submit personal information about minors under 13 years of age to us, whether through the Website, the Service or otherwise.<\/b><\/p>\n As indicated above, we collect two types of information through our Service: personal information and non-personal information. The types of information we collect about you will depend on the nature of your interaction with us or the Service.<\/span><\/p>\n a. Information we collect from you<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n We may collect the following personal information from you:<\/span><\/p>\n We may also automatically gather information about your computer or through your platform such as your IP address, browser type, referring\/exit pages, and operating system, as well as which aspects of our performance metric indicators are available with our technology or Services you prefer using.\u00a0 Some of this may be personal information, but in some cases, it is non-personal information.\u00a0 Specific examples follow:<\/span><\/p>\n We may use your personal information, in combination with your non-personal information, for a variety of business purposes, for example to do the following:<\/span><\/p>\n We will collect, use, or disclose your personal information where we are required or permitted to collect, use or disclose your personal information by Applicable Privacy Laws. This Policy is designed to give you knowledge of how we collect, use and disclose it.\u00a0 When you choose to provide us with your personal information, you consent to the use of your personal information as identified in this Policy and as may be further identified at the time of collection.<\/span><\/p>\n a. Express Consent<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Sometimes you will be asked to give your <\/span>express consent<\/b> to our collection, use or disclosure of personal information. For example, being asked to check a box to indicate your consent to receive marketing communications in compliance with Canada\u2019s anti-spam laws.<\/span><\/p>\n b. Implied Consent<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Other times, you may provide your <\/span>implied consent<\/b> to our collection, use or disclosure of personal information when we can reasonably conclude that you have given consent by some action you have taken or an action you have decided not to take.\u00a0 Generally, this occurs where the purpose for the use of your personal information would be reasonably apparent to you. For example, when you provide us with your email address through a form or email seeking information, you provide us with implied consent to use that email address in order to respond to your request.<\/span><\/p>\n c. Withdrawing Your Consent<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n You may notify us at any time that you wish to <\/span>withdraw or change your consent<\/b> to our use and disclosure or your personal information.\u00a0 We will accommodate your request subject to legal and contractual restrictions.\u00a0 The most common way of indicating this withdrawal of consent is (i) by changing your privacy preferences to the extent such functionality is made available through the Service, or (ii) deleting your account with the Service and stopping use of the Service.\u00a0 In other situations, you may be able to opt out of the use of your personal information.\u00a0 For example, if you have \u201copted in\u201d or subscribed to one of our mailing lists, we will always provide you the opportunity to \u201copt out\u201d or unsubscribe. If you receive emails from us, we will provide a link in the email which you can use to unsubscribe from that mailing list, or you may contact us at <\/span>privacy@braceyourselfgames.com<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n0.
