User Age Limits

Our Games and Our website are not targeted at children under 13 years of age.

What data do we collect?

We collect data in three ways.

  1. Data collected automatically;
  2. Data you provide us; and
  3. Data collected by our partners.

The basis for collecting data is “legitimate interest” under GDPR (Global Data Protection Regulation) and “to support internal operations of the game” 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).

A.        Data collected automatically

Certain data is collected automatically. This includes:

B.        Data you provide us

We collect and store your email where you nominate to specifically allow Our games to collect your player name and your email, including but not limited to when you submit a user created or designed puzzle, i.e., user-generated content (“UGC”), within Our Games. When you choose to share and submit UGC to Us, you are explicitly providing Us with your name and location. This information may then be used to credit you as the creator of the UGC, which will be made publicly available in Our Games to other users. To learn more about submitting UGC, please visit and review our Terms and Conditions here: https://www.bonzapuzzles.com/terms.html.

We note that you may submit UGC anonymously.

We may also keep your contact details if you contact Us for a particular purpose.

Newsletters Mail-Outs and Promotional Materials

When you opt in to join Our mailing list for the purpose of receiving Our newsletter, We will use that to provide you with direct marketing communications about upcoming games, features of Our websites and other events and promotions related to Our products.

You may unsubscribe from Our newsletter at any time. All you need to do is unsubscribe from the link in the letter, or let Us know in writing, via emailing Us at support@minimega.zendesk.com that you want to be removed.

If you wish to receive promotional information from Us, you will be asked to provide your email address to Us.

The third-party partner that We use to create and send promotional information is Mail Chimp. The MailChimp Privacy policy can be found here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/ 

C.        Data we collect from our third-party partners

To operate and manage Our Games and services We need to use third party service providers from time to time. A list of those parties can be found in this privacy policy. The type of information We might collect from them includes:

How do we use the data we collect?

Data collected can be personal to you or non-personal, and sometimes data that doesn’t appear to be personal can become personal if other certain facts are learned. No matter how We come to collect your data, We will always treat it in accordance with this document, and any applicable legislation.

What is Personal Information?

‘Personal Information’ is information that identifies you as an individual. This is only collected by Us if you submit it to Us directly. We note that this does not mean that the Games themselves do not collect data, rather We do not collect personal information from you.

Player Feedback

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

What about Sensitive Information?

Sensitive information includes information about 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.

Advertising

Advertisements from third party ad networks may be displayed in Our Games from time to time. All reasonable endeavours are used to ensure that these ad networks comply with all applicable legislation in the provision of their services towards us. If you click on any advertisements through Our Games, the advertisers may use cookies and other web-tracking technologies to collect data, to provide targeted advertisements to you. Some of this may be personal information, and some of it non-personal information. We recommend that you review the terms of use and privacy policy for any advertiser with whom you are interacting before doing so.

Opting out of Targeted Advertising

You can opt-out of interest-based advertising on mobile applications by checking the privacy settings of your iOS or Android device and selecting "Limit Ad Tracking" (Apple iOS) or "opt-out of interest-based ads" (Android). This will also prevent mobile device identifiers from being collected.

Collection of other ‘Non-Personal’ Information

Some non-personal information may be gathered while you use Our games. 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 games (for example, bug fixes).

Though We do not use cookies in order to track your movement around the web, Our Games use Google Analytics to help analyse how users use Our Games. The tool uses cookies to collect internet log information and general visitor behaviour information in an anonymous form. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the Games, including your IP address, is transmitted to Google. This information is then used to evaluate use of Our website and to compile statistical reports on website activity.
