We will, for example, inform the competent supervisory authority and involved data subjects when this is required by the applicable law.

If your data is transferred from the EU to a party located outside the EU, we call this an 'EU transfer'. If your data is transferred from the UK to a party located outside the UK, we call this a 'UK transfer'. EU transfers and UK transfers are legitimized in the manner described below. You may contact us for information on the legitimization of other data transfers.

EU transfers. An EU transfer EUcan in the first place be legitimized based on an adequacy decision of the European Commission, in which it is decided that the (part within the) third country in question ensures an adequate level of data protection. See this link for a summary of the applicable adequacy decisions.

UK transfers. A UK transfer can in the first place be legitimized based on an adequacy regulation of the UK government. See this link for an overview of the applicable adequacy regulations.

If an EU transfer and/or UK transfer takes place for which there is no adequacy decision or adequacy regulation in place, we agree on the applicability of the relevant version of the Standard Contractual Clauses with the relevant party. This is a standard contract to safeguard the protection of your data, which is approved by the European Commission in which the parties fill out the appendices. See this link for the various versions of the Standard Contractual Clauses for the EU. Where appropriate, additional safeguards should be taken. Where the UK GDPR is applicable, a UK Addendum will be added to the Standard Contractual Clauses mentioned above, as required by UK law and regulations.

In specific situations we can also rely on the derogations as specified in applicable law to legitimize the EU transfer and/or UK data transfer. This could mean that we may transfer your data: (i) with your explicit consent, (ii) if this is necessary for the performance of a contract that has been concluded with you or has been concluded in your interest, or (iii) if this is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims. Lastly, in exceptional cases we may also transfer your data if the data transfer is necessary for our compelling legitimate interests and is not overridden by your interests or rights and freedoms.

We will then also provide you with further information on our processing of your personal data.

GameHUB is in principle responsible for the processing of your data in the context of the GameHUB Website, but other parties may also be involved and responsible themselves, as specified below.

9.1 Developers.

The developers of the games on the GameHUB Website are in principle required to remove all outgoing links and branding/advertisements (e.g. splash-screens, social links and app-store links) from their game(s). If developers do gather personal data for their own purposes, GameHUB is not responsible for this processing: only the developer decides what (personal) data is processed and for what purpose. However, because GameHUB feels it is important that your data is also safe when you play a game, we took two measures. In the first place, we included contractual safeguards with the developers. They are only allowed to include cookies and similar technologies in their game if no consent for this is required under the applicable law. In the second place, we have prepared this list of the cookies used by our game developers, categorized per game, to inform you on behalf of the developers.* For further information on developers cookies, please refer to our Cookie Statement. Furthermore, if you notice any possible undue processing by a developer of your data, please inform us so that we can investigate.

9.2 Advertisement partners.

GameHUB uses the services of several advertising parties. These parties provide us with advertisements for the GameHUB Website and are responsible for their part of the processing of your data in this context. To nevertheless safeguard your privacy in this respect as much as possible, GameHUB has, amongst other things, ensured that suitable contractual measures are in place. Further information regarding the use of cookies, also in the context of advertising partners, can be found in our Cookie Statement.

9.3 Externally hosted games, third party games and other websites.

This Privacy Statement does not apply to usage of your data by other parties that are themselves responsible for such usage of your data, such as providers of third-party games available on the GameHUB Website. The relevant provider of such third-party game is responsible for ensuring that any processing of your data by them in the context of a game complies with the applicable law. In principle, GameHUB does not permit third party content providers to collect personal data about Website Visitors. However, if any personal data will be collected by a third-party content provider, GameHUB will require that the processing of such data by them complies with the applicable law.
* Please note that this list may not be complete, since randomized cookies that are placed with less than 100 Website Visitors are not included in the list. Furthermore, the cookies used by developers may change over time. Therefore, we automatically update this list daily.

If you have any questions concerning this Privacy Statement, or our usage of your data, please contact us atprivacy@GameHUB.com

Please let us know by e-mail in advance if you prefer to have further contact over the phone in another language. We will then try to facilitate your request.

We may change this Privacy Statement from time to time to accommodate new technologies, industry practices, regulatory requirements or for other purposes. The latest version can always be consulted via the GameHUB Website. Important changes will also be communicated to you.
