Navigating GDPR Compliance: How Uckers International Ltd Protects Your Data

In today's digital age, protecting your personal data is paramount. At Uckers International Ltd, we not only prioritize the security of your data but also uphold your rights as outlined by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Let's delve deeper into how we ensure compliance with GDPR while empowering you with control over your data.

Understanding GDPR Compliance

GDPR, enacted to safeguard individuals' privacy rights, sets strict guidelines for how companies handle personal data. At Uckers International Ltd, we adhere to GDPR principles, ensuring that your data is processed lawfully, transparently, and for specific purposes. We're dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of data protection.

Transparent Data Processing

When you use our mobile apps—available on both Android and iOS platforms—we may collect and process certain data necessary for the app's functionality. This includes information such as preferences, moves you make in a game or the fact that you have made a purchase. Having this information allows online game functionality for example, or gives you access to features you have paid for.  Rest assured, this data is utilised solely to enhance your user experience, and we never share it with third parties for advertising purposes.

Consent-driven Data Processing

In addition to essential data processing, we may use a small number of data processors with your explicit consent. We believe in empowering our users to make informed decisions about their data. Therefore, we seek your permission before engaging any data processors beyond what is necessary for the app's basic functioning. Your consent matters to us, and we're transparent about how your data is used. Any additional data processors we engage are purely for the purpose of improving the user experience of Uckers.com (eg. app analytics). We do not sell or transfer this data outside Uckers.com and our data processors.

Your Rights Under GDPR

GDPR grants individuals several rights concerning their personal data. These rights include:

  • Right to Access: Obtain confirmation from us as to whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed, and, if so, access to that data and certain information about its processing.

  • Right to Rectification: Correct or complete inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.

  • Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): Request the deletion of your personal data under certain circumstances, such as when it's no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or if you withdraw your consent.

  • Right to Restrict Processing: Request the restriction of processing of your personal data in certain situations.

  • Right to Data Portability: Receive your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and have the right to transmit that data to another controller.

  • Right to Object: Object to the processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

Empowering You with Control

At Uckers International Ltd, we empower you to exercise these rights seamlessly. Through our platform, you can easily initiate requests to delete your personal data. Additionally, you have the option to manage your consent preferences and opt out of non-essential data processing activities from the menu page (tap on 'Privacy'). For any other queries about your personal data, please contact support@uckers.com.

Deletion of Personal Data

As part of our commitment to GDPR compliance, we recognize your right to erasure. If you wish to have your personal data deleted from our systems, you can do so by editing your profile (tap you avatar on the menu page) and selecting 'Delete Account'. This will delete both your account and any additional data we or our data processors hold that is identifiable to you, ensuring compliance with GDPR requirements.

Transparency and Accountability

Transparency is key to our data processing practices. We're committed to providing clear and concise information about how your data is processed, who it's shared with (if applicable), and the purposes for which it's used. Additionally, we maintain detailed records of our data processing activities, demonstrating accountability and compliance with GDPR regulations. From the privacy page (found on the menu), you can see details of all the data processors we use and for what purpose.

Continuous Improvement

Our commitment to GDPR compliance extends beyond mere adherence to regulations. We continuously evaluate and enhance our data protection measures to ensure the highest standards of security and privacy for our users. Your feedback and insights are invaluable in this ongoing endeavor to safeguard your data and uphold your rights.
