Protecting your privacy is really important to us. With this in mind, we’re providing this Privacy Policy to explain our practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of information that we receive through our Services. When we say “Services” in this Privacy Policy, we mean our website located at (the “Website”), our mobile device application (the “App”), and our ExaGear Desktop suite of software products available for use via the Apps or via installation on any types computers (collectively, the “Products”). This Privacy Policy applies to only those websites, products, services and applications included within the Services and does not apply to any third-party websites, products, services or applications, even if they are accessible through our Services.

Revisions To This Privacy Policy

Any information that is collected via our Services is covered by the Privacy Policy in effect at the time such information is collected. We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we’ll notify you of those changes by posting them on the Services or by sending you an email or other notification, and we’ll update the “Last Updated Date” above to indicate when those changes will become effective.

Collection And Use Of Information

What Information We Collect from You

Our primary goals in collecting information are to provide and improve our Services, to administer your use of the Services, and to enable you to enjoy and easily navigate our Services.

Registration Information. If you create an account in connection with your use of any of the Services (“Account”), either through our Site or when you set up and register one of our Products, we’ll collect certain information that can be used to identify you, such as your name, email address, postal address, phone number and credit card information (“PII”). If you create an Account using your login credentials from one of your accounts with certain third-party social networking services such as Facebook or Twitter (each, an “SNS Account”), we’ll be able to access and collect your name and email address and other PII that your privacy settings on the SNS Account permit us to access. If you create an Account, we may also collect other information that is not considered PII because it cannot be used by itself to identify you.

Payment Information . When you purchase the Services, we will also collect transaction information, which may include your credit card information, billing and mailing address, and other payment-related information. We describe how Payment Information may be collected and processed in the “Payment Information” section of this Privacy Policy.

Information Collected Using Cookies and other Web Technologies . Like many website owners and operators, we use automated data collection tools such as Cookies and Web Beacons to collect certain information.

“Cookies” are small text files that are placed on your hard drive by a Web server when you access our Services. We may use both session Cookies and persistent Cookies to automatically collect information on how you interact with our Services, such as the IP address from which you access the Services, date and time of your interaction, information about your browser, operating system, and your device, pages viewed and items clicked and identify that you’ve logged in to the Services. We may also collect location information, including location information automatically provided by your device. We use cookies and similar technologies to collect some of this information. For more information, please see our Cookie Policy .

We may also use Cookies to monitor aggregate usage and web traffic routing on our Services and to customize and improve our Services. Unlike persistent Cookies, session Cookies are deleted when you log off from the Services and close your browser. Although most browsers automatically accept Cookies, you can change your browser options to stop automatically accepting Cookies or to prompt you before accepting Cookies. Please note, however, that if you don’t accept Cookies, you may not be able to access all portions or features of the Services. Some third-party services providers that we engage (including third-party analytics services) may also place their own Cookies on your hard drive.

“Web Beacons” (also known as Web bugs, pixel tags or clear GIFs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that may be included on our Services for several purposes, including to deliver or communicate with Cookies, to track and measure the performance of our Services, to monitor how many visitors view our Services, and to monitor the effectiveness of our advertising. Unlike Cookies, which are stored on the user’s hard drive, Web Beacons are typically embedded invisibly on web pages (or in an e-mail).

Information Related to Use of the Services . Our servers automatically record certain information about how a person uses our Services (we refer to this information as “Log Data”), including both Account holders and non-Account holders (either, a “User”). Log Data may include information such as a User’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, operating system, the web page that a User was visiting before accessing our Services, the pages or features of our Services to which a User browsed and the time spent on those pages or features, search terms, the links on our Services that a User clicked on and other statistics. We use Log Data to administer the Services and we analyze (and may engage third parties to analyze) Log Data to improve, customize and enhance our Services by expanding their features and functionality and tailoring them to our Users’ needs and preferences. We may use a person’s IP address to generate aggregate, non-identifying information about how our Services are used.

Information Sent by Your Mobile Device . We may collect certain information that your mobile device sends when you use our Services, like a mobile device identifier, user settings and the operating system of your device, as well as information about your use of our Services.

Location Information . When you use our Services, our third-party services providers (such as Google Analytics) may collect and provide us with information about your location by converting your IP address into a rough geolocation. We may use this location information to improve and personalize our Services for you.

Third Party Platforms . We use side third party services to provide you with the best experience on our website and to offer you the most appropriate and useful content. To reach this goal we need to use third-party services which on their side collect the data to help us reach the goals mentioned above. Among such services the main ones are 9but not limited to)

Other Data . We may collect other information which is not listed here and may use any this information in accordance with this Privacy Policy or whatever you give us your consent for.

How We Use the Information Collected

When you contact Eltechs, we keep a record of your communication to help solve any issues you might be facing. We may use your email address to inform you about our services, such as letting you know about upcoming changes or improvements.

We use information collected from cookies and other technologies, like pixel tags:

1. To improve your user experience and the overall quality of our services. One of the products we use to do this on our own services is Google Analytics. For example, by saving your language preferences, we’ll be able to have our services appear in the language you prefer.
2. To deliver you advertising, including by serving and managing ads on the Offerings or on third party sites and to tailor ads based on your interests and browsing history. Please, see “User Rights” Section for additional information on how to manage the ads you see.

4. COOKIES AND OTHER SIMILAR DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES

As described in Sections 3 and 5 of this Privacy Policy, we sometimes work with third parties to deliver ads or offers. Sometimes we or these third parties do so through a mobile "SDK." The SDK is a bit of computer code that app developers can include in their apps to enable data to be collected and ads to be shown. We may use this and similar technology to deliver certain advertising through mobile applications and browsers based on data associated with your mobile device, and we may work with third parties who likewise embed their SDKs into our services, for third party advertising. If you"d like to opt-out from having ads tailored to you in this way on your mobile device, please follow the instructions below or in the app (as applicable).

If you wish to opt out of interest-based tracking through your mobile device, you can do so through your device "settings", as follows (but please note that the below is for informational purposes only and Apple, Google, or other device platforms may change the manner in which their "opt out" settings work at any time): Please note that if you opt out through these settings, you will continue to receive advertising after you opt-out, but it may not be tailored to your interests. For instance, that advertising may be based on your real-time or "contextual" application usage or general location inferred from IP address.

Opting Out on iOS Devices Such as iPhones, iPads or iPods
If you have an Apple device, you can opt out of interest-based advertising by updating to iOS 6.0 or higher, and setting Limit Ad Tracking to "ON". On an iPhone 6 for example, you can do this by clicking on Settings -> General -> Privacy -> Advertising and toggling "Limit Ad Tracking" to "ON". Our systems are designed to respect your choice and not use your personal information to provide interest-based advertising when this setting is ON.

• With your consent or at your request
  We may ask for your consent to share your information with third parties. In any such case, we will make it clear why we want to share the information.

7. HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION

The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and after it is received. We work hard to protect you from unauthorized access to or alteration, disclosure or destruction of your personal information. As with all technology companies, although we take steps to secure your information, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information will always remain secure. We regularly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks and regularly review our information collection, storage and processing practices to update our physical, technical and organizational security measures.

We may suspend your use of all or part of the services without notice if we suspect or detect any breach of security. If you believe that your account or information is no longer secure, please notify us immediately at

8. INFORMATION RELATING TO CHILDREN

Our services are intended for general audiences over the age of 13 years old (or over the age of 16 if you are resident in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13 years old, or 16 years old in the EEA. If you are not over 13 years old (or 16 years old in the EEA) then DO NOT DOWNLOAD OR USE THE SERVICES. If you believe that we may have personal information from or about a child under the age of 13 years old (or over the age of 16 if you are resident in the EEA), please contact us at and we will promptly delete that personal information

9. YOUR RIGHTS

We want you to be in control of your information and be aware of your privacy rights, so here are a few key points to remember:

• Depending on your location you may have some or all of the following rights in relation to how we use your personal information:
  . Access: you may request access to your personal information and receive copies of it;
  . Correction: you may have inaccurate/incomplete personal information corrected and updated;
  . Object to, or Limit or Restrict, Use of Data: you can ask us to stop using all or some of your personal information or to limit our use of it.
  . Deletion: in certain circumstances, you can request a right "to be forgotten" (this is a right to have your information deleted or our use of your data restricted). We will honour such requests unless we have to retain this information to comply with a legal obligation or unless we have an overriding interest to retain it.
  . Portability: in certain circumstances, exercise the right to data portability (this is a right to obtain a transferable version of your personal information to transfer to another provider)
  . Consent Management: where we rely on consent to process your personal data, you may withdraw consent at any time. You do not have to provide a reason for your withdrawal where processing is based on consent.
• If you wish to exercise any of these rights, or wish to object to our use of your information, please write to us at the address listed below and we will consider your request in accordance with applicable laws.
• Keep in mind, we may reject requests for certain reasons, including if the request is unlawful or if it may infringe on the rights and freedoms of another person. For example, we may not be able to accommodate certain requests to object to the processing of personal information, notably where such requests would not allow us to provide our service to you anymore.
• For your protection, we may ask you to provide proof of identity before we can answer the above requests.

10. CROSS-BORDER DATA TRANSFERS

Sharing of information sometimes involves cross-border data transfers, for instance to the United States of America and other jurisdictions. The United States, European Economic Area ("EEA") Member States, and other countries all have different laws. When your information is moved from your home country to another country, the laws and rules that protect your personal information in the country to which your information is transferred may be different from those in the country in which you live.

The European Commission has adopted standard contractual clauses (also known as Model Clauses), which provide safeguards for personal information that is transferred outside of the EEA. We use these Model Clauses or other suitable safeguards (such as EU-US Privacy Shield to send personal information to some of our third party service providers in the United States, where they are certified to receive such information under the Privacy Shield Program) to permit data transfers from the EEA to other countries.

11. HOW LONG WE STORE YOUR INFORMATION

We retain your information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the services to you. We will also retain and use your information to the extent necessary:

• to comply with applicable law;
• to evidence our compliance with applicable law;
• if there is an outstanding issue, claim or dispute requiring us to keep the relevant information until it is resolved; or
• if the information must be kept for our legitimate business interests, such as enforcing our terms or fraud prevention. For example, information may need to be kept to prevent a user who was banned for security incidents from opening a new account.

Keep in mind that even though our systems are designed to carry out data deletion processes according to the above guidelines, we cannot promise that all data will be deleted within a specific timeframe due to technical constraints.

12. PRIVACY POLICY CHANGES

Because we"re always looking for new and innovative ways to help you enjoy our services, this policy may change over time. We will notify you of any material changes so that you have time to review the changes.

13. DATA PROTECTION OFFICER

For our European users, our Data Protection Officer is responsible for ensuring your rights are respected and to review and oversee how we collect and use your personal information. They can be reached by contacting

(General Data Protection Regulation) — общем регламенте по защите персональных данных, который вот-вот вступит в силу в ЕС и который придется соблюдать украинским предпринимателям, если они хотят вести бизнес с европейскими гражданами.

Юрист практики Juscutum Владислав Некрутенко в своей колонке рассказал о том, что на самом деле меняет GDPR, каким он должен быть и какую информацию должен раскрывать интернет-пользователям.

Наверное, каждый человек хоть раз давал согласие на обработку персональных данных при регистрации на веб-сайте. При этом указывается, что обработка будет осуществляться согласно «Политике Конфиденциальности» сайта. Что это значит?

За последние годы персональные данные стали эффективным экономическим активом. Их грамотное использование приносит компаниям коммерческое преимущество и прибыль.

С другой стороны, злоупотребление выгодой с персональных данных и незнание пользователей об этом приводят к государственным ограничениям в этой сфере. Поэтому законодательство развитых стран требует, чтобы компания:

• в полной мере проинформировала пользователя о характере и деталях использования его данных;


• после чего получила от него согласие на их сбор и обработку.

Privacy Policy - это внутренний документ, который устанавливает правила сбора и обработки персональных данных пользователей на определенном веб-ресурсе.

Пользователь должен ознакомиться с Privacy Policy во время первого визита на сайт либо при регистрации. Кроме того, этот документ размещается публично на сайте с постоянным доступом к нему. Прежде чем дать согласие на обработку данных, пользователь должен прочитать Privacy Policy (или хотя бы поставить галочку, что прочитал). На сегодня это одна из самых распространенных практик по информированию на веб-ресурсах.

Требования GDPR к информированию пользователя
Само требование оповестить пользователей веб-сайта об использовании их данных - не ново. Тем не менее, при его реализации возникают проблемы.

Можно часто встретить длинные версии Privacy Policy ресурсов, написанные на непонятном языке, которые описывают лишь отдельные аспекты обработки персональных данных. Такая политика не несет информационной функции для пользователей, а служит скорее формальным соблюдением законодательства. Соответственно, пользователь не в состоянии понять, на что он соглашается.

Из-за этого и других введений пользователя в заблуждение, Европейский союз принял новый акт по защите персональных данных — General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). GDPR ставит требования по обработке персональных данных на территории Европейского союза. Кроме того, действие документа распространяется на компании вне ЕС, если те обрабатывают персональную информацию европейских граждан.

Основные нововведения - открытость и прозрачность сбора персональных данных, информированность субъекта, а также свобода согласия на их сбор и обработку. В связи с этим, GDPR ставит более высокие требования по объему и качеству информирования пользователей об обработке их данных.

Где он выступал с докладом. В его выступлении особое внимание уделялось важной для нас теме трактовки gambling для social casino. В ходе разговора, в котором участвовали и другие коллеги, выяснилось, что юридическим моментам в своей работе инди-девелоперы уделяют очень мало внимания, создавая необходимые документы по остаточному принципу. Мы решили восполнить этот пробел и провести вместе с практикующим юристом небольшой “ликбез”.

Privacy Policy определяют политику разработчика в отношении персональных (личных) и других данных пользователей приложения, которые разработчик получает в процессе использования приложения. Основная задача этого документа – проинформировать пользователя, как минимум, о том, какая информация о нем собирается при использовании приложения, как эта информация используется и в каких случаях она может быть раскрыта третьим лицам, в том числе, государственным органам. Персональным данным во всем мире придается все больше и больше значения, поэтому разработчику особенно важно получить подтверждение того, что пользователь ознакомился с данным документом (впрочем, других документов это тоже касается).

Правовое регулирование оборота персональных данных различается от юрисдикции к юрисдикции. Более того, до сих пор остается много вопросов относительно того, в каком объеме и каким образом законодательство о защите персональных данных применяется к отношениям в сети Интернет (в том числе, и в связи с приложениями), где сложно или практически невозможно достоверно определить пользователя, который должен давать верифицируемое согласие на обработку персональных данных в ряде случаев. Тем не менее, общий принцип один: пользователь должен понимать, каким образом информация, которую он вольно или невольно передает разработчику, может быть использована, и выразить свое согласие с этим, либо, как правило, отказаться от сервиса (приложения) в принципе, а разработчик должен максимально убедительно суметь доказать, что такое понимание у пользователя есть.

При разработке Privacy Policy российским компаниям следует помнить, что наименьшие риски связаны со случаями, когда персональные данные используются только для взаимодействия конкретно разработчика и пользователя в рамках одного приложения – это, во многих случаях, может подпадать под категорию обработки персональных данных для исполнения договора, стороной которого является субъект персональных данных, о которой говорится в п. 5 ч. 1 ст. 6 Федерального закона «О персональных данных», что не требует согласия субъекта персональных данных, то есть пользователя, по особой форме. Более сложные, с юридической точки зрения, ситуации возникают тогда, когда разработчик обрабатывает персональные данные для широкого круга целей, например, в целях маркетинга, и, особенно, при этом осуществляет передачу персональных данных для обработки третьим лицам и (или) за рубеж. Для таких ситуаций российское законодательство требует развернутое согласие пользователя в письменной форме, с учетом требования законодательства об электронных подписях.

Общие рекомендации здесь дать сложно и каждый проект надо анализировать отдельно – очень многое зависит от деталей. Вместе с тем, можно сказать, что во многих случаях риски будут ниже, если в рамках архитектуры проекта персональные данные сделаны общедоступными самими пользователями и (или) если происходит их обезличивание – так, что на их основании в принципе нельзя установить то или иное лицо. С развитием сервисов, которые позволяют активно использовать изображение пользователя, дополнительно стоит отметить, что существенные риски могут быть связаны и с обработкой биометрических персональных данных, т.е. сведений, которые характеризуют физиологические особенности человека и на основании которых можно установить его личность.

License Agreement , наверное, наиболее понятный, с юридической точки зрения, документ – он определяет то, в каких пределах пользователь может использовать приложение как результат интеллектуальной деятельности, т.е. предоставляет пользователю ту или иную лицензию. Думаю, не будет ошибкой сказать, что исторически этот документ, из числа рассматриваемых, появился по отношению к компьютерным играм первым, поскольку законодательство об интеллектуальной собственности было наиболее разработанным на момент появления первых компьютерных игр. Более того, для однопользовательских игр, распространяемых на физических носителях без «живой» поддержки, это и сейчас может быть единственным документом, хотя таких игр, конечно, уже крайне мало (вероятно, это уже по большей части только нераспроданные «антикварные» экземпляры). Часто можно встретить более развернутое название данного документа – End User License Agreement, т.е. «Лицензионное соглашение с конечным пользователем».

Практически всегда пользователям предоставляется простая (неисключительная) лицензия, посредством которой правообладатель, в нашем случае условно – разработчик как лицензиар предоставляет пользователю как лицензиату права использования результата интеллектуальной деятельности с сохранением за собой права выдачи лицензий другим лицам. Исключительные лицензии, которые не предполагают сохранения такого права, распространены уже не в отношениях с пользователями, а в рамках сугубо деловых отношений, например, при разработке. Согласно российскому законодательству, если иное прямо не предусмотрено лицензионным договором, то лицензия предполагается как раз простой (неисключительной), и это следует иметь в виду тогда, когда вы получаете права на какой-либо продукт, используемый при разработке. Иными словами, если к договору применяется российское право и если при этом прямо не оговориться, что только вы имеете право на использование соответствующего продукта, то лицензиар (тот, кто права предоставляет), может эти права предоставить и другим лицам, а движок, например, который вы используете по данной лицензии, будет «неэксклюзивным», вне зависимости от того, что вам обещали раньше.

Регулирование лицензионных отношений в целом имеет нюансы в разных странах, но общие принципы сохраняются, поскольку данное регулирование основано на одних и тех же международных соглашениях. В России общие положения о лицензионных договорах закреплены в ст. 1235 Гражданского кодекса Российской Федерации. Так, результат интеллектуальной деятельности может быть передан только в тех пределах и теми способами, которые предусмотрены лицензионным договором. По общему правилу, лицензионный договор должен быть заключен в письменной форме, иначе он считается недействительным. В лицензионном договоре должна быть указана территория, на которой допускается использование результата интеллектуальной деятельности, а если такая территория не указана, то лицензиат вправе осуществлять использование лицензируемого продукта на всей территории Российской Федерации (но не за рубежом). Срок лицензионного договора не может превышать срок действия исключительных прав. Для компьютерных программ, права на которые регулируются также как и литературные произведения (за исключением некоторых дополнительных положений), этот срок, по общему правилу, составляет жизнь автора и 70 лет с момента смерти автора, считая с 1 января года, следующего за годом смерти автора. Если срок не определен, то договор считается заключенным на пять лет, если иное не предусмотрено Гражданским кодексом. При отсутствии указания размера вознаграждения или порядка его определения договор считается незаключенным. Кроме того, лицензионный договор должен определять предмет договора и способы использования лицензируемого результата интеллектуальной деятельности.

Нужно ли эти документы создавать в обязательном порядке всегда или это опциональное требование?

В тех случаях, когда нужно создавать – как это сделать «наименьшей кровью»? Ведь далеко не все инди-разработчики могут себе позволить услуги хорошего юриста.

В идеальной ситуации, на мой взгляд, юрист должен участвовать в консультировании проекта уже на этапе разработки дизайн-документа, чтобы заранее «отфильтровать» излишне рискованные в условиях современного законодательства и практики аспекты гейм-дизайна и контента либо порекомендовать способы снижения рисков за счет дизайнерских (архитектурных) решений. Наиболее качественные услуги здесь могут оказать юридические фирмы и отдельные практикующие юристы, уже имеющие значительный опыт на рынке IT и медиа в России и за рубежом, но я понимаю, что этот вариант жизнеспособен только при хороших инвестициях в проект и оценке актуальности юридических рисков, скорее, уже самим инвестором.

Второй возможный вариант – найти юриста, с которым ИР может обсудить возможность участия в проекте юриста на «рисковых» началах, при которых юрист получит свое вознаграждение в случае получения прибыли от проекта. Не все юридические фирмы и частнопрактикующие юристы, если они исходят из того, что выполняют функции независимого советника по правовым вопросам (а для адвокатов такая позиция определена законом и кодексом профессиональной этики) могут на это согласиться, поскольку в такой ситуации юрист фактически становится частью команды, а это налагает дополнительные, по крайней мере, моральные обязательства. Однако, в общем, такой вариант возможен.

Наконец, имея определенный опыт и знания в юридических вопросах, теоретически, можно попытаться обойтись своими силами – например, написав свои документы на основе примеров, полученных от коллег. Но этот вариант достаточно рискован – не владея системными знаниями в области права, есть большая опасность не только не снизить риски, но и создать дополнительные. Кроме того, крайне нежелательно прямое копирование чужих документов, поскольку они сами по себе могут представлять собой результаты интеллектуальной деятельности, ведь объектами авторских прав, по крайней мере, по российскому законодательству, из числа юридических документов не являются только официальные документы органов государственной власти, местного самоуправления и международных организаций. «Частные» документы охраняются. Не менее важно и то, что документ по другому проекту может просто не отражать критические, с точки зрения закона, аспекты вашего проекта.

Плюс ко всему, можно представить и смешанный вариант, предполагающий меньшие затраты – создать проект документа(-ов) самому, а потом дать его на проверку юристу, и если не потребуются изменения, это может сократить бюджет на правовое сопровождение.

И последний вопрос. Указанные документы располагаются то в сторе, то в самом приложении, то на сайте поддержки. Есть ли какое-либо требование или стандарт, которого нужно придерживаться?
