PRIVACY POLICY
Effective: March 1st, 2019
Last update: November 30th, 2022
At Triple Boris, we take our users’ privacy very seriously. We commit to being fully transparent about our privacy practices, including how we treat and process your personal information (“personal information” or “data”). We know that you take your privacy seriously as well, so we provide you with the following concise, clear and accessible information about your rights and how we process your data. The terms below explain our processes regarding our privacy practices and are as a whole our privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”). This Privacy Policy is legally binding. Please read it carefully.
1. Parties
This Privacy Policy describes how Triple Boris Inc. (“Triple Boris”, “we” or “us”) processes your personal information in connection with the services offered by Triple Boris as a data controller and/or processor, including but not limited to mobile and other software applications developed and/or sold by Triple Boris (the “Applications”). This Privacy Policy applies when you (“you”, “User”) access, visit or use any of our Applications. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, a User is a person who downloaded and/or uses a Triple Boris mobile Application. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party applications or software used through Triple Boris’ Applications, or the products, services or activities of others.
2. Consent to the Terms of This Privacy Policy
Triple Boris does not collect any personal information except when Users register an Account with us. Third-party service providers and business partners such as Unity Technologies Inc. (see Section 6 of this Privacy Policy) may collect personal information but Triple Boris does not have access to this personal information.
The use of Triple Boris’ Applications is purely voluntary. You are not required to provide any personal information to us, unless you choose to access features of the Applications that require such personal information.
In such a case, if you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, then please do not provide us with any personal information, exit the Applications immediately, and refrain from using the Applications.
Accordingly, by registering an Account with Triple Boris or by otherwise accessing, visiting or using the Applications, you expressly consent to our collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation
or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, alignment or combination restriction, erasure or destruction (collectively “processing”) of your personal information as described
in this Privacy Policy and understand that we may transfer your data outside of the European Economic Area (EEA).
3. Changes to the Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to change our practices and may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. You may be required to accept the amended Privacy Policy upon logging in to your Account to keep using our Applications. Alternatively, we may post any material changes to this Privacy Policy on our website with a notice advising of the changes in advance and of the effective date of said changes, by sending you an email or any other means of electronic communication. We encourage you to check this page regularly so that you know what our current practices are. If you do not agree with the changes to this Privacy Policy, you may stop using our Applications and delete your Account.

5. Personnal Information about Users
5.1 Information We May Collect or Receive
We receive personal information about Users of our Applications primarily in two ways:
- Actively: When Users voluntarily provide us with personal information. For example, when a User registers an account with us, he or she will type in a name, username, email address and may be required to provide a date of birth and/or other information.

Our payment systems are not designed to store credit card numbers or any financial information.
- Social network information: When you log in to our Applications with a social network account, you may have the option to share information such as the name you use on that network and your friends list or other information that the third-party social network chooses to share with us, depending on their privacy policy.

(e.g. city, state or province and country) of the User’s point of access to the Applications.
- Usage data: We collect usage data about Users whenever they use our Applications, including date and time of access and information they have elected to make publicly available.
- Referral data: If Users download our Applications from an external source (such as a third-party website redirecting Users to the Application downloading page), we collect information about the source that referred said Users to us.

We may combine information that we collect from you with information about you that we obtain from such third parties and information derived from any other subscription, product or service we provide.
5.2 Triple Boris’ Obligations to Users as Data Controller and Data Processor
For the processing of Users data, Triple Boris undertakes to fulfil the following obligations:
a) To treat at any given time your data only in connection with the services offered through our Applications (unless there is a legal rule that requires complementary processing, in such a case,
Triple Boris will inform the User of that legal requirement prior to the processing, unless the law prohibits it on public interest grounds).
b) To maintain the duty of secrecy with respect to Users data which Triple Boris has access to, even after you stop using the Applications and/or delete their Accounts, and to ensure that our employees
and third-party processors have committed in writing to maintain the confidentiality of the data being processed.
c) To ensure, taking into account the available technology, the costs of implementation, and the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing, that we apply adequate technical and organizational
measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including, where appropriate, among other things:
- Pseudonymization and encryption of data;
- The ability to ensure the continued confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of the systems and Applications;
- The ability to restore the availability and access to data quickly and resilience of the systems and Applications;

When evaluating the adequacy of the security level, special account shall be taken of the risks presented by data processing, in particular as a consequence of the destruction, loss or accidental or unlawful
alteration of the data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or the communication or unauthorized access to such data.
In the event that the implementation of specific and concrete security measures is needed, those measures will be added to this Privacy Policy.
d) To keep under our control and custody the data to which we have access in relation with the use of the Applications, and not to disclose them, neither transfer or otherwise communicate them, not even for their preservation, to persons unrelated with the use of the Applications covered by this Privacy Policy.
However, we may authorize, expressly and in writing, third-party service providers and business partners, whose details are listed at paragraph 6.5 of this Privacy Policy. We will notify you of any expected change to
the aforementioned list.
In any case, access to the data made by natural persons who render services to Triple Boris, acting within the organizational framework of the latter by a commercial non-labour relationship and having agreed in writing to maintain the confidentiality of the data processed is authorized. In addition, access to the data is granted to companies and/or professionals that Triple Boris hires in its internal organizational framework to provide general maintenance services (computer, services, consulting, audits, etc.).
e) To delete or return to Users, at their discretion, all data to which we have access, unless there is a legal rule that requires the preservation of data.
f) To notify Users, without delay, of any personal security breach of which we are aware, to provide support to Users in notifying the competent control authority and, if applicable, the interested parties of the security breach that occur, as well as to provide support, where necessary or appropriate, in the carrying out of privacy impact assessments and in the prior consultation to the control authority.
g) To make available to Users all the information necessary to demonstrate the fulfilment of the obligations established under the Privacy Policy.
