4. How Information Is Shared

We do not sell your personal information. We do not currently process personal information for targeted advertising.

We may share information in the following situations:

4.1 With Other Users

Information you choose to make visible, such as your profile, posts, comments, reactions, public group content, stories, photos, videos, and usernames, may be visible to other users depending on the Service's features and your settings. Direct messages are visible to the participants in that conversation.

4.2 With Service Providers

We may share information with vendors and service providers that help us operate, host, secure, monitor, analyze, and improve the Service. These may include hosting providers, cloud storage providers, database providers, analytics providers, email providers, push notification providers, security tools, customer support tools, and moderation tools. These providers are allowed to use information only to provide services to us and must protect the information they process.

4.5 With Your Consent

We may share information when you direct us to do so or give us consent.

5. User Content and Visibility

Gamifans is a social platform. Content you post or share may be visible to others. Even when you delete content or your account, copies may remain temporarily in backups, caches, moderation records, legal records, or in content already received or saved by other users.

Do not share private, confidential, sensitive, or personal information unless you understand and accept the risks of sharing it through a social platform.

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to:

• Keep you logged in.
• Remember preferences.
• Secure accounts and detect suspicious activity.
• Improve performance.
• Understand usage and diagnose errors.

You can control cookies through your browser or device settings. Blocking cookies may affect some features.

7. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information. However, no internet service, database, or transmission method is completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for using a strong password.

8. Data Retention

We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, maintain security, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, prevent abuse, and improve the Service.

When you delete your account or request deletion of personal information, we will delete or de-identify information as required by applicable law, unless we need to retain certain information for legitimate purposes such as security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, dispute resolution, backup integrity, or enforcement of our policies.

Some content may remain visible to other users if it was sent to them, included in group conversations, quoted, shared, stored by other users, or technically difficult to remove from completed message delivery. Backup copies may remain for a limited time before being overwritten or deleted according to our backup practices.

9. Account Deletion and Data Requests

You may request deletion of your account and associated personal information by using the account deletion feature in the Service, if available, or by contacting us at support@gamifans.com. You may also use the account deletion page at https://www.gamifans.com/account-deletion if available.

To protect your account, we may need to verify your identity before completing deletion, access, correction, or other privacy requests.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to:

• Confirm whether we process your personal information.
• Access personal information we have about you.
• Correct inaccurate personal information.
• Delete personal information.
• Obtain a copy of certain personal information in a portable format.
• Opt out of sale of personal information, targeted advertising, or certain profiling where applicable.
• Appeal a decision we make about a privacy request where required by law.

New Jersey residents may have rights under the New Jersey Data Privacy Law when that law applies, including rights to confirm processing, correct inaccuracies, delete personal data, and opt out of certain processing such as sale, targeted advertising, or certain profiling.

Gamifans does not currently sell personal information or use personal information for targeted advertising. If this changes, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide any required opt-out mechanisms.
