Introduction

The Creator Good, Inc. is the owner and operator of Artcade, a mobile application and all affiliated websites (“Artcade” or we, us, our, ours, etc.). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it through this Privacy Policy (the “Policy”). This Policy describes the types of personal information we may collect from you, the user, (you, your, yours, etc.) or that you may provide to us when you use the services offered by us on Artcade (the “Services”), and our practices for collecting, using, keeping, protecting, and disclosing your personal information.

Please read this Policy carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal information and how we will treat it. If you do not agree with this Policy, your sole choice is to leave Artcade, unless your jurisdiction provides otherwise. By accessing or using Artcade, you agree to this Policy and consent to our collection, use, disclosure, retention, and protection of your information as described in this Policy.

We reserve the right to revise, amend, or modify this Policy at any time and in any manner. We will consider your continued use of Artcade after we make changes to this Policy as your acceptance of the changes, so you must periodically revisit this Policy and check the “Last Updated” date above. If changed, this Policy has been updated or edited, and the updated or edited version supersedes any prior versions immediately upon posting.

1. How old do you have to be to use the Services?

We prohibit anyone under the age of eighteen (18) from accessing Artcade or using the Services. We do not knowingly market to or collect or solicit any information from or about anyone under the age of eighteen (18). If you are under the age of eighteen (18), you must not submit information to us and must immediately leave Artcade. If we learn that we have collected information from or about a person under the age of eighteen (18), we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have such information, please contact us at inquiries@thecreatorgood.org.

2. What types of information do we collect about you?

We may collect several categories of information that personally identifies you or that could be reasonably linked to you or your household (“personal information”) from and about users of Artcade. However, we limit our collection to personal information that is adequate, relevant, and reasonably necessary to provide the Services to you. All data collection is based on legal or contractual necessity. These categories of personal information may include your name; alias; username or other unique personal identifier, password, and security questions and answers; postal and billing address; email address; IP address and other Internet network activity information such as browsing history, search history, and online interactions; telephone number; device ID; geolocation data; social security number or taxpayer ID number; driver’s license, passport, or other identification card number; credit card or banking information.

To comply with the requirements of our payment processors, we may require you to provide our third-party age verification service providers with a driver’s license, passport, or other identification card number, biometric information including a scan of your facial geometry, and/or other forms of verification information. You understand and agree that the collection and use of such information is governed by the privacy policies of the applicable contractor, not this Policy. We may also require you to provide us with verification information directly. Our collection and use of any verification information that you provide directly to us is governed by this Policy.

However, this Policy does not apply to (i) personal information that has been de-identified or that is otherwise publicly available, nor (ii) any submissions you make to the Contests as described in our Contest Rules (“Submissions”). You understand and agree that the Submissions are non-confidential, may be shared publicly on Artcade, and may be sublicensed to third parties for publication on third party platforms, used as training materials in generative artificial intelligence software, or for any other purpose. You will not include any categories of personal information in your Submissions.

3. How do we collect your personal information?

We may collect all categories of your personal information directly from you when you provide it to us, such as through:

We do not collect personal information from your Submissions, but your Submissions may be attached to your personal information for the purpose of operating the Contests according to our Contest Rules.

We may also collect your personal information automatically from your computer device or mobile phone and through cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies.

This Policy does not apply to information collected by us offline or through any other means, or by any third party that is linked to or accessible through Artcade.

4. Do third parties collect your personal information on Artcade?

Third parties including users, advertisers, content or application providers, and third-party plug-ins may provide materials to Artcade which use cookies, web beacons, or other tracking technologies to collect your personal information, including information about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. Those third parties may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content. We do not control third-party tracking technologies or how third parties use them. Your use of third-party plug-ins are governed by the user terms and privacy policy of the third party that provided that plug-in. If you have any questions about an advertisement or plug-in, you should contact the responsible provider directly.

Please be aware that we do not operate, control, or endorse third-party websites that may be linked on Artcade, nor are we responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party websites. We disclaim any responsibility for your personal information on third-party websites, and we do not make any warranties or representations that any third-party website (or even Artcade) will function without error or interruption, that defects will be corrected, or that any third-party webs or their servers are free of viruses or other problems that may harm your computer. We encourage you to be aware when you leave Artcade and to read the privacy policies of any third-party website that collects your personal information.

5. How do we use your personal information?

6. Do we share your personal information with third parties?

We may also share all categories of your personal information with:

Our subsidiaries, parents, affiliates, contractors, service providers, and other third parties as necessary to provide the Services to you;

7. What choices do you have over your personal information?

We strive to provide you with choices about the personal information you provide directly to us. You can always delete or restrict any personal information that you provided directly to us. In the case of personal information on your profile, you may delete the personal information from your profile. In all other cases, we will delete any personal information that you have provided directly to us, if you request to permanently delete your account. However, we may retain all categories of your personal information for so long as reasonably necessary for any use or purpose set forth herein and as otherwise set forth in our standard retention policies. Further, we may delete any user data if required by law, and we may refuse to accommodate any change if we believe doing so would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

We also strive to provide you with choices about the personal information that we collect from you automatically. You may refuse to accept cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. To learn how you can manage your other cookies, visit www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/. However, if you select this setting, you may be unable to access certain parts of Artcade. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, we will issue cookies when you access Artcade.

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that you can set in your browser. DNT is a way for you to inform websites and services that you do not want certain information about your browser history collected over time and across websites or online services. However, we do not recognize or respond to any DNT signals as the Internet industry works toward defining exactly what DNT means, what it means to comply with DNT, and a common approach to responding to DNT. For more information, visit www.allaboutdnt.com.

We do not control third parties’ collection or use of your personal information to serve interest-based advertising. However, these third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way.

8. How long do we retain your personal information?

Except as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law or regulation, we may retain all categories of your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill any use of your personal information set forth herein. However, we reserve the right to indefinitely retain publicly available information and de-identified information for any legitimate business purpose without further notice to you or your consent.

9. Is your personal information secure?

We are committed to data security, and we have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, change, and disclosure. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers behind firewalls. However, you understand and agree that the transmission of your personal information over the Internet is not completely secure. While we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted through Artcade. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures used by Artcade.
