2. HOW WE USE PERSONAL DATA

2.1 Personal data - Beta Registration Data

Our Services may be offered as a closed or open beta, in which case only certain players can participate. To control access to the beta, we may ask you to register an account with us, in which case we may collect:

  • name;
  • email address; and
  • your wallet address.

How long we keep it

We store this data for up to 6 years after our relationship with you ends. However, data published to the Ethereum blockchain will be available perpetually.

How we use it

We process this information to control who can participate in our beta Services. In particular, we collect name and email addresses to send invitations to the beta. If you are accepted, we include your wallet address in a public “whitelist” on the blockchain which is then used by our software to decide which wallets are treated as players in the game.

Legal basis

We process this information in accordance with the terms of our contract with you (where we need this information to provide you Services under a contract) or to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract. We also use this information to pursue our legitimate interests in monitoring and controlling access to our beta and other in-development Services.

More information

You may be required to provide us with certain information in order to participate in beta projects.

Sources and recipients

2.2 Personal data - Game Data

We monitor transactions on the Ethereum blockchain including:

  • sender and recipient wallet addresses; and
  • the type and content of transactions (including what tokens are sent, how many, and meta data and messages attached) which includes the username you choose for your account.

How long we keep it

We only store this data temporarily while our server software is running, for as long as necessary to deliver our Services. The underlying data is however stored perpetually on the public Ethereum blockchain.

How we use it

These transactions, including details of the sender, recipient and their content (including tokens, metadata) are monitored and interpreted by our software as in-game actions. Our software determines game state from the blockchain and may show you information about the game’s state. We may also analyse this data to improve the game and fix problems with our software.

Legal basis

We process this personal data to pursue our legitimate interests (and those of users) in delivering our decentralised game, improving it and fixing problems.

2.5 Personal data - Analytics

We may use analytics data (e.g. browser type, IP address, device info, usage patterns) to understand how users interact with our Services, improve performance, and fix errors.

How long we keep it

After 26 months underlying analytics data is deleted, but we may retain anonymous aggregated statistics.

How we use it

We use analytics to understand traffic and interactions on our Services, and to improve user experience.

Legal basis

We rely on consent for cookies-based analytics. Otherwise, we rely on legitimate interests to improve our Services.
