PRIVACY POLICY – BAD HAIRCUT GAMES


Bad Haircut Games Pty Ltd (Australian Business Number: 54 682 019 209) (defined here as ‘We’, ‘Us’ or ‘Our’) recognise the importance of your privacy and understand the concerns surrounding security of personal information.

This Privacy Policy sets out how We collect, use and disclose “personal information” and other “non-personal information” We have gathered about you in relation to our website: www.badhaircutgames.com (“Website”).

By interacting with Our Website, you acknowledge and consent to the terms of this privacy policy.

This policy will let you know:
• What information (often referred to as ‘data’) is collected from you;
• How your information is used;
• With whom your information may be shared;
• How you can access, update, or delete your information.

We will comply with all relevant and applicable legislative requirements, and, in the event of any inconsistency, the legislative requirements will override the provisions of this document.

User Age Limits

We do not collect any personally identifiable information from children, nor do We intentionally direct interest-based advertising to anyone under the age of 13 years.

If you believe that We have inadvertently collected information from a person under the age of 13, please contact Us at the email address below and the information will be permanently deleted. We do not permit behaviourally targeted advertising to children under the age of 13 years.

What data do we collect?


We collect data in three ways.

A. Data collected automatically;
B. Data you provide us; and
C. Data collected by our third-party partners.

The basis for collecting data is “legitimate interest” under GDPR (Global Data Protection Regulation) and “to support internal operations of our company” under COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act). Any data collected is done solely for internal uses that are reasonably and directly related to your relationship with Us, in accordance with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

We may collect two types of information that relate to you, namely, ‘personal information’ and ‘non-personal information’.

Personal information is information that identifies you as an individual (“Personal Information”). Personal Information is only collected by Us if you submit it to Us directly. We do not collect personal information from you, unless you provide it to us directly.

Please note that we do not sell your Personal Information to anyone.

Collection of ‘Non-Personal’ Information

Non-personal information is information that does not identify, distinguish or trace you (or your device) (“Non-Personal Information”).

Some Non-Personal Information may be gathered while you use Our Website. Non-Personal Information is general, non-identifiable and anonymous information that is gathered for statistical, analytical and research purposes such as the improvement of our website.

Sometimes if Personal Information and Non-Personal Information are collected and read together, the Non-Personal Information may become identifiable information.

Additionally, sometimes data that doesn’t appear to be personal can become personal if certain other facts are learned.

What about Sensitive Information?

Sensitive information includes information about such things as an individual’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, membership of a political association, religious or philosophical beliefs, membership of a professional body, criminal records or health information.

We will not attempt to obtain nor record any sensitive information.

How do we use the data we collect?

We may collect and use your information in order to deliver the services you request, manage your account settings, and help safeguard against unauthorized use. We also use it to keep you informed about the services you use, respond to your support inquiries, share updates or relevant offers, invite feedback, and notify you of changes to our policies. This information helps us gain insights into user preferences and improve our sites and services.

No matter how We come to collect or have access to your data, We will always treat it in accordance with this policy, and any applicable legislation. We collect data to improve our Website.

A. Data collected automatically
Certain data may be collected automatically through Us or our third-party partners. Currently, we do not collect any data automatically when you visit our Website or receive e-mails from us, and We will update Our Privacy Policy if this changes.

B. Data you provide us

If you contact Us with a comment or query, We keep a copy of any personal information you provide in such communication. This is so that We can respond to your comments, feedback, crash reports and questions, as a part of Our commitment to providing you with end-user support. If you contact Us directly for any reason, We also keep a copy of that correspondence.

We will also keep your contact details if you contact Us for another purpose.

C. Data we collect from our third-party partners
To operate and manage Our Website and any future games we create, We may use third party service providers from time to time. A list of those parties can be found in this privacy policy.

• You have provided your consent; or
• We believe that the recipient of such information is subject to a law, or a binding scheme, that has the effect of protecting your information in a way that, overall, is at least substantially similar to the way in which the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) protect information; and there are mechanisms you can access to take action to enforce that protection of the law or binding scheme; or
• where otherwise allowed by any applicable legislation.
