1. Introduction to the Biosphere
Welcome to the Papaya Splash Arcade privacy policy. Neo-Eden Entertainment Ltd acts as the data controller for any information collected while you explore our solarpunk social casino. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
2. Data We Harvest
Because Papaya Splash Arcade requires no accounts or registration, the data we collect is minimal. We only harvest technical data, such as your IP address, browser type, and device information, strictly to ensure games like Luminescent Vines and Spore Sweeper function correctly on your device.
3. Lawful Basis for Processing
We process this technical data under the lawful basis of legitimate interests. It is essential for us to monitor the performance of the website, prevent fraudulent disruption of our free games, and ensure your Nectar Drops balance remains stable during your session.
4. Your Virtual Economy
Your Nectar Drops balance and progress in games like Nectar Cascade are stored locally on your device. We do not track your individual gameplay history on our servers, nor do we profile your gaming habits.
5. Data Retention
Any technical server logs collected by Neo-Eden Entertainment Ltd are kept only for as long as necessary to maintain website security, typically no longer than 30 days. After this period, the data is permanently erased.
6. Third-Party Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your data to outside parties for marketing purposes. We may share anonymised technical data with our UK-based hosting providers solely for the purpose of keeping Papaya Splash Arcade operational.
7. Your Data Subject Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to request access to, rectification, or erasure of your personal data. You also have the right to object to processing and the right to data portability. Since we do not hold identifiable user accounts, fulfilling these requests may require you to provide specific technical identifiers.
8. Cookies and Tracking
Our platform relies on small data files known as cookies to function. Please refer to our dedicated Cookie Policy for detailed information on how we use these files to save your Nectar Drops balance and preferences.
9. Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)
If you have any concerns about our data harvesting practices, please contact us at support@papayasplasharcade.com. If you remain dissatisfied, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues.
