For our XR Applications

1. What personal data do you collect and why?

1.1. So that you can use our XR Applications and we are able to repair and improve the applications, we collect the following data about the End User: identification data (avatar, nickname or user pincode under which you are registered); data concerning the use of our XR Application (when and how and how successfully you completed the application’s goals). Additionally, we gather technical data (data about your device etc.), which can only identify the device, but not the End User.

We only use these personal data for the three below-specified purposes: to enable the functioning of the XR Application, to create anonymized statistics contributing to the improvement of the game and reviewing general usage, and to generate reports and dashboards for our corporate clients to review use and training outcomes.

1.2. Firstly, we need personal data of the person using the XR Application described above (identification data, technical data and game use data) so that the XR Application is functional, including leaderboards etc. The reason for such processing is based on the necessity to fulfil the agreement between the end client and us. For people in the EU and United Kingdom under the age of majority (under 18 years in most EU countries) who have a limited ability to enter into an enforceable contract, the reason for such processing is based on our legitimate interests.

1.3. We need to process some of the personal data of the End User for our statistical purposes. These include either purely technical data (i.e. information not containing any personal data at all) or the other above-described data in pseudonymised form, that is, data to which we assign a special number so that nobody except for us is able to match the data to the existing identifier using the given number. This processing is based on our legitimate interest, which is the continuous improvement of the XR Application. The End Client and End User have the right to object to this processing in the manner described below.

2. How will you process my personal data?

2.1. Our application will require the personal data to be able to track performance for an individual using the application. Furthermore, the personal data is used to provide aggregate and personal dashboards and reporting for the end client and end user.

2.2 Aside from the above reasons, we shall process the information (especially statistics) in aggregated (non-identifiable) form as much as possible, and where this is not possible, we shall process the information in pseudonymised form as much as possible. 

3. Do you need my consent for the processing? 

3.1. In fact, we do not need your consent under GDPR as for all forms of processing, we have other legitimate reasons (because this is necessary for fulfillment of agreement or it is in our legitimate interest).

4. For how long will you retain my personal data?

4.1. We will keep your personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected as described above and in accordance with applicable law. When the license expires or is terminated, the data will be destroyed within 30 days. Only backups of the data can remain, which are stored in an encrypted at-rest state.

5 Do I have to give my personal data to you? Do you have to process them?

5.1. If you want to use our XR Applications, you will have to share some personal data as per paragraph 1 above. However, our applications also allow anonymous use, but in such case it will not be possible to track the performance of individual users.

6. To whom do you transfer my personal data?

6.1. We have personal data in our possession for the whole time. The data is stored in a database specific to the End Client. Some aggregated data can be stored in our central database.

6.2. Apart from us, however, personal data is also processed by some of the platforms that are used to run the application. Then, such personal data will be processed in accordance with the relevant platform’s privacy notice: Oculus.

6.3. Furthermore, we use the following tools and services to further enhance your experience, or to provide functionality:

  • Contabo: hosting of the databases (EU)
  • Sentry: incident monitoring (EU)
  • Runcloud: maintenance of our web infrastructure
  • Epic Games: Connect 2 or more users together in a multi-user session
  • Cloudflare: securing our web infrastructure

7. What rights do I have?

You may assert all of the rights in writing at the below-given postal addresses or by email at [email protected].

7.1. You have the right to access the processed personal data concerning you.

7.2. We only need to process your accurate personal data. You may have the right to the rectification of your personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete.

7.3. You may have the right to request that we erase your personal data. For example, if you think that your personal data are no longer needed for the purpose for which they have been processed or if you believe that your personal data are processed by us illegally, you may demand that we erase your personal data. However, it is not always possible to erase the personal data provided by you, for instance, because of the fact that if we erased them, you would no longer be able to use the XR Applications. In such case, we will ask permission from you as a user, and then proceed with erasure of the data. Note that after erasure, all our XR Applications will seize to function.

7.4. Another right that you may assert is the right to data portability based on which we will hand over the personal data provided by you in a commonly used, structured and machine-readable format or, if you require, we will transfer them to another controller of your own choice, where such transfer is technically feasible.

7.5. If you believe that your personal data processed by us are incorrect, you may have the right to demand that we restrict the processing of your personal data for a period necessary to verify the accuracy of your personal data and to rectify them if needed. You also have this right if the processing of your personal data is illegal, but you do not wish for your personal data to be erased; if we no longer need your personal data for the above-specified processing purposes, but you demand that your personal data are preserved for the purposes of the determination, exercise or defense of your legal claims; or if you have objected to the processing of your personal data on the basis of our legitimate interest.

7.6. With regard to the fact that some of your personal data we process on the basis of our legitimate interest, you may have the right to object to this processing. Based on the objection, we will consider whether it really is in our interest to process your personal data for the given purpose. If we conclude that we do not have any significant legitimate reasons that prevail over your interests, rights, or freedoms, we will terminate the processing of and destroy such personal data. However, it needs to be stressed that such objection should be well-founded. Therefore, we recommend you first obtain all of the necessary information at the above-mentioned email address.

7.8. To make a complaint about our handling of your information, please write to us at [email protected]. You may also raise the matter with your local data protection regulator. Additional information for filing complaints can be found at paragraph 8 below.
