Privacy Statement Parents

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Geometry Dash Kids Website is dedicated to providing a safe environment for children under the age of 16 years. We are committed to protecting the privacy of these young Website Visitors. We've simplified this in the Privacy Info page so kids can be clear about it. To provide more transparency into our privacy practices and principles, we have created this "Privacy Statement Parents" as well as the "Cookie Statement Parents" for parents or guardians interested in learning more about how we process data from Website Visitors.

This Privacy Statement Parents provides information on the data we collect and how we use it.

PROCESSING AND USAGE DATA ON THE GEOMETRY DASH KIDS WEBSITE

The Geometry Dash Kids website is designed to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for children under the age of 16. All features on our website are available without registration. We are committed to protecting the privacy of its Website Visitors; besides, Geometry Dash Kids website doesn't have chat box functions or work with accounts, so we do not require any personal information, such as email addresses or phone numbers, from its users. Additionally, Geometry Dash does not permit third-party advertisements to appear on this site.

However, certain electronic data will be processed when someone visits our website for specific purposes, as detailed below:

HOW DO WE GET THE DATA?

The Geometry Dash Kids Website offers its services without requiring Website Visitors to register for an account or share personal data such as email addresses or phone numbers. However, we do collect electronic data from Website Visitors to provide, maintain, and improve our website.

There are two ways that the Geometry Dash Kids website obtains data:

• Provided by the Website Visitor: Some data is provided directly by the Website Visitor or the minor they represent when they contact Geometry Dash Kids via the contact details listed on the website.
• Automatically obtained: The website obtains some data automatically by using cookies and similar techniques. When the Website Visitor’s device contacts the Geometry Dash Kids website's servers, usage information is automatically collected.

While Website Visitors are not obligated to provide any information about themselves to Geometry Dash Kids, refusal to provide certain information via cookie blockers may affect their experience on the website or its functionality. For instance, Website Visitors will not be able to use the "save game" functionality.

HOW GEOMETRY DASH SECURES WEBSITE VISITOR'S DATA

Protecting the privacy and data of Website Visitors is a top priority for Geometry Dash. To prevent breaches of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data, we have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures. All Geometry Dash employees and persons processing a Website Visitor's data are required to maintain confidentiality. We have internal documentation that outlines the necessary measures for ensuring an appropriate level of technical and organizational security. Additionally, we have a data breach procedure in place that describes how potential breaches should be handled. 

DATA RETENTION POLICY

As part of our commitment to protecting the privacy of our website visitors, Geometry Dash only retains their data for as long as necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected, unless there are exceptions that apply.

Shorter retention period exception: We may remove your personal data earlier than the general retention period or retain it for a longer time if you or someone on your behalf exercises certain privacy rights. 

Longer retention period exception: In some cases, we may need to process your data for a longer time than necessary for the processing purposes. This includes situations where we have a legal obligation to retain your data for a certain minimum period of time, or when your data is necessary in relation to a legal procedure or the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information. Please note that this exception does not apply to cookie-related data.

We always ensure that we comply with applicable laws and regulations when determining the retention period for your data. If you have any questions or concerns about our data retention policy, please contact us using the information provided at the bottom of our Privacy Statement Parents.

WHICH PRIVACY RIGHTS APPLY?

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), website visitors have several privacy rights. The extent to which these rights can be exercised may depend on the circumstances of the processing, such as the way personal data is processed by Geometry Dash and the legal basis for processing. To learn more about these rights, visitors can visit the websites of the European Commission and the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.

Geometry Dash will respond to all requests without undue delay. If a response takes more than a month due to complexity or the number of requests, Geometry Dash will inform the requestor. Additionally, Geometry Dash may request more information to confirm the identity of the person filing the request, such as the website visitor or their legal representation, before acting on any request.

Geometry Dash will provide information about the follow-up of the request without undue delay and within one month of receipt, or within two months for complex or numerous requests.
