General information  
Welcome! Thank you for your interest in our website. We are astragon Entertainment GmbH, Am Wehrhahn 33,

Our commitment  
Protecting your privacy is of utmost importance to us. Therefore, complying with the statutory data privacy  
regulations forms a natural foundation of our day-to-day work. It is, however, moreover paramount to us that  
you at all times know which personal data we gather, why we gather it, and how we process it. We will be happy  
to explain to you what rights you have and how to exercise them, as well.  
What is personal data?  
To put it briefly, anything whereby you, as an individual, can be identified, whether due to the information itself  
or in connection with other information. Examples of this include your name, e-mail address, or also a customer  
ID, but even the point in time at which you visit our website if that is saved together with your IP address. We  
constantly endeavour to gather as little personal data as possible. Simultaneously, we are informing you in this  
document, in depth, on your personal data, if we gather any.  
Why is this document so long?  
The legislative authority requires us to describe the following to you in regard to all personal data individually:  
-
-

-
-
-
which personal data we gather (= the nature of the data gathered)  
which law or ordinance or regulation permits us to do so (= the legal basis)  
why we gather said data (= the intended use)  
what exactly happens to your data (= the nature of the processing)  
how long we save your personal data  
what rights you have in regard to your personal data (= the rights of data subjects)  
We need to list all the steps individually. This is why this document is very extensive.

Legal basis  
We gather and process personal data based on the most up-to-date European law. You will find the entire legal  
basis specified below in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Depending upon the purpose for  
gathering the data, one or more of the legal bases below will apply:  
•
Consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).  
Consent is a declaration of intent. This can be given in writing in the form of a statement, or also  
by way of any other clearly affirmative action. In whatever way the consent is given, it needs to  
be given voluntarily, apply to a specific case, and unmistakably express that the data subject is in  
agreement with the processing of the personal data concerned. For that purpose, the data  
subject needs to be adequately informed and understand the consent.  
•
The necessity of fulfilling the contract or taking preparatory measures pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b)  
GDPR  
This means: The data is necessary so that we can fulfil the contractual obligations towards you or  
we need the data to prepare for concluding an agreement with you.  
•
•
Processing to fulfil legal obligations pursuant to Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR  
This means: The processing of the data is, for example, mandatory for us based on a law or other  
regulation.  
Processing in order to preserve legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR  
This means: The processing of the data is necessary in order to, on the one hand, preserve  
legitimate interests on our part or on the part of a third party, as long as your interests or basic  
rights and basic freedoms, which make the protection of personal data necessary, do not  
outweigh the latter.  
3.  
Rights of data subjects  
As far as your personal data is concerned, you are the data subject. You have the following rights in regard to  
the processing of data by us in the scope in accordance with the respective article of the General Data  
Protection Regulation cited:  
•
•
•
•
•

The right to information pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR  
The right to correction pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR  
The right to deletion (“Right to be forgotten”) pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR  
The right to limit the processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR  
The right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR  
The right of opposition pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR  
Notwithstanding any other legal remedy under administrative or judicial law, you are entitled to file an appeal  
with a supervisory authority, in particular in the EU Member State that is your place of residence, your place of  
work or the place of the presumed infringement if you are of the opinion that the processing of the personal  
data concerned infringes the GDPR.  
4.  
Deletion of data and duration of storage  
The personal data of the data subject is deleted or blocked once the purpose of the storage lapses. It may,  
moreover, be stored beyond that time if this has been stipulated by the European or national legislative authority  
in EU ordinances, laws or other regulations to which the Controller is subject. The data may also be blocked or  
deleted if a storage period stipulated by said standards expires, unless the necessity for further storage of the  
data for concluding an agreement or fulfilling an agreement exists.  
II.  
Specific data processing  
1.  
Firebase  
a) Scope of the data processing  
This game uses Firebase, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (“Google”). The software „FireBase“  
was developed by Google, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA  
(hereinafter referred to as "Google"). This software gathers information on how you use the game  
and creates various statistics from that. The usage data gathered in particular includes the specific  
selection of menu items or functions, the time spent on the game or in individual menus or missions,  
and the sequence in which you used the functions of the game, as well as the frequency of playing the  
game. This data is gathered together with your IP address. The IP address transmitted by your browser  
within the context of Firebase is not merged with other data of Google.  
We have activated the so-called IP anonymisation in this game, i.e. the IP address is first truncated by  
Google within Member States of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement  
on the European Economic Area, prior to being transmitted on to the USA.  
Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a server of Google in the USA and truncated  
there.  
https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/ .  
b) Legal basis  
The legal basis for the processing of the data when using the game is Art. 6(1)(1)(f) GDPR.  
Google  
itself  
describes  
its  
data  
processing  
activity  
here:  
The legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR lies in a customer-orientated design of  
the game, which does justice to the user’s requirements and takes the user’s usage preferences into  
consideration.  
The legal basis for the passing on of the data to Google is Art. 28(3) and Art. 45(3) GDPR. The service  
provider is certified under the Privacy Shield Framework and is therefore subject to the adequacy  
decision (Implementing Decision 2016/1250) of the European Commission, i.e. the level of data  
protection with the service provider is recognised as being equivalent to that stipulated by the GDPR,  
even though the service provider has its registered office in the USA.

4.  
Purpose of the data processing  
The processing serves the purpose of analysing our games and the usage pattern of the respective  
players.  
Duration of the storage  
The data is already anonymised directly after being gathered. Personal data is therefore only gathered  
in the course of the transmission, and not permanently.  
The possibility of objection and deletion  
You may prevent the cookies from being saved, including the generation and transmission of data to  
Google, by deactivating “Firebase” in the game settings.  
2.  
Facebook  
While playing the game you can get connected to your Facebook profile. Because of this connection the following  
data collected by Facebook will be provided to astragon: e-mail address; the public profile, (first and last name,  
if filed at Facebook, profile photo, sex and age ); list of friends also using game apps. By creating a link to your  
Facebook profile you agree that the data is processed and transferred for these purposes. astragon has no  
influence on how Facebook uses the collected data. We refer to the following privacy policy:

3.  
Do we gather personal data if you play our games on a mobile phone or tablet?  
When you use our games on a mobile phone or tablet with the Google Android or Apple iOS operating systems,  
we do not gather any personal data. Please infer whether, and to what extent, personal data is gathered and  
processed by Apple or Google in the context of using the games from the respective data privacy policies of the  
relevant provider. This may in particular be the case if you use the convenience functions of Apple or Google that  
are integrated into the game, e.g. logging in to the Game Center, saving game statuses, etc. We have no access  
to such data that is gathered by Apple or Google.
