• Principle of Proactive Accountability: the Controller shall be responsible for ensuring that the above principles are complied with.

The categories of data processed by Mechanic Games are solely identification data. Under no circumstances are special categories of personal data processed within the meaning of Chapter 9 of the GDPR.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is consent. Mechanic Games undertakes to obtain the express and verifiable consent of the User to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.

The User shall have the right to withdraw consent at any time. It shall be as easy to withdraw consent as it is to give it. As a general rule, withdrawal of consent shall not condition the use of the Website.

On those circumstances where the User must or may provide their data through forms to make enquiries, request information or for reasons related to the content of the Website, they will be informed in the event that the completion of any of them is compulsory due to the fact that they are essential for the correct development of the operation carried out.

The personal data is collected and managed by Mechanic Games in order to facilitate, speed up and fulfil the commitments established between the Website and the User or to maintain the relationship established in the forms that the latter fills in or to attend to a request or query.

Likewise, the data may be used for commercial, personalisation, operational and statistical purposes, as well as for the extraction and storage of data and marketing studies to adapt the Content offered to the User, and to improve the quality, operation and browsing of the Website.

At the time the personal data is collected, the User will be informed about the specific purpose(s) of the processing for which the personal data will be used, i.e. the use(s) of that collected information.

Personal data will only be retained for the minimum time necessary for the purposes of their processing and, in any case, only for the following period: , or until the User requests their deletion.

At the time personal data is obtained, the User will be informed of the period for which the personal data will be retained or, where this is not possible, the criteria used to determine this period.

The User’s personal data will not be shared with third parties. In any case, at the time the personal data is obtained, the User will be informed about the recipients or categories of recipients of the personal data.

In compliance with the provisions of Chapter 8 of the GDPR and Chapter 7 of the Spanish Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and the guarantee of digital rights, only persons over the age of 14 may give their consent to the lawful processing of their personal data by Mechanic Games. In the case of children under the age of 14, the consent of their parents or guardians is required for the processing, and the processing shall only be considered lawful to the extent that they have given their consent.

Mechanic Games undertakes to adopt the necessary technical and organisational measures, according to the level of security appropriate to the risk of the data collected, so as to ensure the security of personal data and to prevent the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or the unauthorised communication of or access to such data.

However, since Mechanic Games cannot guarantee the impregnability of the Internet or the total absence of hackers or others who fraudulently access personal data, the Data Controller undertakes to notify the User without undue delay when a breach of security of personal data occurs that is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. In accordance with Chapter 4 of the GDPR, a breach of security of personal data means any breach of security resulting in the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or the unauthorised disclosure of or access to such data.

Personal data will be treated as confidential by the Data Controller, who undertakes to inform and to ensure by means of a legal or contractual obligation that such confidentiality is respected by its employees, partners, and any other person to whom it makes the information accessible.

The User has some rights over Mechanic Games and may, therefore, exercise against the Data Controller the following rights recognised in the RGPD and Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and guarantee of digital rights:

• Right of Access: This is the User’s right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not Mechanic Games is processing their personal data and, if so, to obtain information on their specific personal data and on the processing which Mechanic Games has carried out or is carrying out, as well as, among other things, the information available on the origin of said data and the recipients of the communications made or planned for said data.
• Right to rectification: This is the User’s right to have their personal data amended if it proves to be inaccurate or incomplete having regard to the purposes of the processing.
• Right to erasure: This is the User’s right, unless otherwise provided for by law, to obtain the erasure of their personal data when they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed; the User has withdrawn their consent to the processing and there is no other lawful basis for the processing; the User objects to the processing and there is no other legitimate reason to continue the processing; the personal data have been processed unlawfully; the personal data must be erased in compliance with a legal obligation; or the personal data have been obtained as a result of a direct offer of information society services to a child under 14 years of age.

The Website may include hyperlinks or links that allow access to third party websites other than Mechanic Games, and which are therefore not operated by Mechanic Games. The owners of such websites will have their own data protection policies, being themselves, in each case, responsible for their own files and their own privacy practices.

In the event that the User considers that there is a problem or infringement of the regulations in force in the way in which their personal data is being processed, they will have the right to effective judicial protection and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular, in the State in which they have their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. In the case of Spain, the supervisory authority is the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos) (https://www.aepd.es/).

It is necessary that the User has read and agrees with the conditions on the protection of personal data contained in this Privacy Policy, as well as that they accept the processing of their personal data so that the Data Controller can proceed in the manner, during the periods and for the purposes indicated. The use of the Website implies acceptance of the Privacy Policy of this Website.

Mechanic Games reserves the right to modify its Privacy Policy, according to its own criteria, or motivated by a legislative, jurisprudential or doctrinal change of the Spanish Data Protection Agency. Changes or updates to this Privacy Policy will not be explicitly notified to the User. The User is recommended to consult this page periodically to keep abreast of the latest changes or updates.

This Privacy Policy was updated to adapt to the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) and to the Spanish Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and the guarantee of digital rights.
