Below is a summary of our Privacy Policy. This summary aims to help young people below the age of 18 understand what information we collect about you, how we use it, and what your rights are.

We hope that this summary will help you but if you have any questions, you can contact us by email at support@salto.games.

2. Introduction

Privacy rules can be tricky, so we have summarised our Privacy Policy to help you to understand what information we collect about you (sometimes referred to as "personal data" or "personal information"), how and why we use it, and your rights relating to your information. 

We do our very best to keep your information safe and private and will only use your information when the law allows us to. 

We hope that this will help you but if you have any questions, you can contact us at the contact details above. You can also read our full Privacy Policy for more information and you should speak to your parent(s) or guardian(s) if you are unsure about any of the information below. 

We may update our Privacy Policy (including this summary) if there is a change to the way in which we use your information or where there are changes in law. You should regularly check our websites to check for any changes. If we make any important changes to our Privacy Policy, we will tell you by email or in-game messaging.

3. What information do we collect about you? 

If you play our games, use our website, or contact us, we may collect some or all of the following information about you:

• your name and account details;

• your date of birth;

• your email address;

• your gender;

• your game profile, including your profile picture, game progress and usage;

• ID numbers we assign to your account;

• technical information from your computer, mobile phone or other device which you use to access our websites or play our games (including your location);

• data collected by cookies used on our websites (please see paragraph 14 below); and

• marketing and communications data, including any preferences you set on your account.

4. How we collect information about you

We collect your personal information in three ways: 

• through our direct interactions with you (for example if you ask to be added to our mailing list); 

• through your use of our games and websites (for example we collect data relating to how you use our websites); and 

• through third parties such as Google and YouTube  and third-party service providers which we use to provide you additional services. 

5. How we use your information

We use your personal information to:

• provide you access to our websites and games;

• comply with any legal requirements. 

We may offer a number of social features within our games from time to time, including the ability to interact with social media tools. This means that other players may see your profile data, in-game activities and read messages you have posted. Where you are able to interact with third-party websites (such as a social media platform), we encourage you to read their privacy policies carefully before uploading any content to that platform.

If you are in the UK or a country within the European Economic Area (EEA), your information may be shared with companies located outside of your country. Where we transfer your data outside of the UK or EEA, we follow data protection laws to make sure that any company we share your information with follows the same rules we follow to protect your information and keep it secure. 

6. Why we collect your information

We only collect your information where we need to and are allowed to by law. Typically, this will be for the following reasons: 

• Consent. You have agreed that we can use your information in a certain way (such as where you subscribe to receive marketing updates by email from us about our games). 

• Legitimate Interests. We use your information to help our business, improve our websites, games and services as long as we do this in a way that respects your privacy rights. 

• Legal Obligations. We need to collect your information by law.

If we do request any special category data from you, we will ask for your specific consent to the processing of that information.

A lot of the information we request from you is needed to provide you with our services and games. You are not required to provide your personal information to us but you may be unable to use our services and games if you do not provide this information to us.
