We may allow selected third parties to use tracking technology which will enable them to collect data about how you interact with the Services Providers over time.

Unless described in this Policy, we do not share, sell, rent or trade any of your information with third parties for their promotional purposes.

No purpose in this policy will require us keeping your personal information for longer than 1 year.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then GAMA-1 will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

GAMA-1 has implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.

You should only access the services within a secure environment.

Cookies and similar technologies: Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you may be able to choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of GAMA-1’s online services or website. Please see our Cookie Policy below.


Controls for do-not-track features

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, GAMA-1 does not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, GAMA-1 will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy policy.
