Last updated: 23 December, 2021
This policy applies to personal information held about our customers, our suppliers and prospective suppliers, people who visit our websites, and anyone else whose personal information we hold.
In this policy, “we,” “us,” and “our” means Universal Insight Limited (trading as Universal), and its affiliates (collectively and severally trading as Universal), a group of companies which are devoted to developing and publishing video games globally.. This policy deals with where we are acting as a ‘data controller’ under the data protection legislation: which essentially means where we are responsible for deciding what personal information we collect and how we use it. We also often operate as a ‘data processor’, meaning that we are processing personal information on behalf of another entity (for example a publisher of one of our games). When we refer to “personal information”, we mean “personal” relating to you personally or from which you can be identified. Some of the information mentioned in this policy is not “personal information” as is meant under data protection legislation, but we may refer to it to help you understand what we do.
According to applicable laws and regulations in the country of your residency, the minimum age for you to access our Services unsupervised is 18 years of age. We will not knowingly collect personal data from children under this age without prior consent from their parents or legal representative. If you are a child under the age abovementioned, we will require parental consent before an account is created for you and personal data associated with it collected and use all reasonable efforts to verify that the consent was given by the child’s parents or legal representative, considering available technologies. We encourage parents to instruct their children to never give out personal data when online.
We are committed to protecting and respecting the personal information of everyone we deal with – that is important to us and we know it is important to you.
In this policy you will find information about what types of personal information we hold about you, how and why we collect it, how we use it, and how we keep it secure. You will also find the information about your rights and how you may exercise them.
Please read this policy carefully and if you need to contact us about anything that is in here, or for anything else related to your personal information, you can reach us by email at aof22062@gmail.com.

6. CHILDREN
Protecting children’s privacy is of high importance for us. Our websites and our games are not intended for children under the age determined by data protection regulations or applicable laws in your country of residency, and we do not knowingly collect data relating to children. In respect of games that are not directed at children, but which may nonetheless appeal to them, we take additional steps to limit access to the Services based on the player’s age.
