Certain information we collect in connection with the use of our Websites may be processed in an automatic manner (including, in the form of profiling), but it will not lead to any legal effects for you, or similarly have significant influence on your situation. We pay particular attention to the issue of profiling, and indicate that:

  • for the needs of profiling we do not process any sensitive data,

  • for the needs of profiling we usually process data which have already been subject to pseudonimisation or data which have been aggregated by us.

  • if we are not able to achieve a purpose by other means than profiling of personal data which have not been pseudonimised or aggregated, we use typical data: e-mail address and IP or cookies;

  • we conduct profiling in order to analyse or forecast personal preferences and interests of the persons who use our Websites, products or services, and match the content of our Websites or products to those preferences;

  • we conduct profiling for marketing purposes, i.e. to match the marketing offer to the above-mentioned preferences.

Cookie files

In order to ensure top quality of the services and adapt the Websites to your needs, the Data Controller uses cookie files.

Cookie files (also referred to as cookies) are small pieces of information in the form of a short sequence of characters which are stored in the memory of your device. Access to those files allows the Data Controller to identify, at a later date, your device and adapt the website’s settings to it. The information stored does not introduce any configuration changes to your device and software. They can be deleted at any moment by means of the internet browser’s appropriate function.

There are various types of cookies. The website uses “session” and “persistent” cookies. “Session” cookies are removed from your computer immediately after you close the internet browser. On the other hand, “persistent” cookies are stored on your computer also after your browser is closed – the maximum period of such storage is determined separately for each cookie.

  • they remember action taken by the Websites’ user, thanks to which after leaving them the user does not have to e.g. fill in forms,

  • they allow personalisation of ads and marketing communication during the visit to a Website and in messages sent to the Websites’ users,

  • they allow sending Data Controller’s ads outside the Website, e.g. to persons who have already visited the Website and/or can be potentially interested in the Data Controller’s services.

  • they allow measuring the effectiveness and settlement of marketing activities’ effects.

  • they collect statistical information about the traffic on the Websites.

On the basis of the above-mentioned rules and for the purposes described above, there are also other mechanisms used by the Websites, such as localStorage, which works on the basis of the same rules as persistent cookie files, but is able to store more information.

The Websites also feature scripts of external partners which can also store data on your device. The storage mechanisms and rules used may differ from those which are provided for in this privacy and cookies policy. More information on that can be found on the websites of our respective partners. They include, among others:

  • Google

  • Facebook

  • Brand24.com

  • Nintendo

  • Sony Computer Entertainment

  • Microsoft

The list of the above-mentioned entities keeps changing, and is up to date as of the day on which this document was drawn up.

You can decide about whether you want to store cookies on your device and which ones. Relevant details can be found on the website of the internet browser’s provider. 

At the same time, we would like to inform you that disabling or limiting the use of cookies may hinder or even prevent the use of our Website and the services provided in it.

Server logs

  • Information on some of your behaviour is logged in the server layer. These data are used only to manage the Websites and in order to ensure the smoothest possible handling of the hosting services provided.
