Recipients internal to the Asmodee Group

  • Authorized personnel from the marketing department, departments responsible for customer relations and sales development, the administration and legal departments, the logistics and IT departments and their line managers; 
  • Other Asmodee Group companies acting as processors according to our instructions and solely on our behalf, or as joint controllers to provide you with the same personalized service worldwide.

User data from signing in is collected and transmitted to (Asmodee Digital) an internal recipient.

External recipients

  • The authorized personnel of our service providers, including third parties in charge of managing our communications and alerts, third parties who assist us in the organization of our events, third parties providing IT services including hosting the platform, digital communication and public relations agencies;
  • Social networks (lnstagram, Facebook, Twitter and TikTok) may also establish the “whys” and “hows” for utilization of your Personal Data. They have their own privacy and cookies policies. Accordingly, bear in mind that the Personal Data transmitted by You to such networks is subject to their rules, not ours;
  • To the public: during your communications; 
  • Your Data on forums and blogs; 
  •  With console and platform partners  (e.g. to enhance the gaming experience when You access our games or services via a third-party console supplier);
  • To a subcontractor for tournament management 

Please note that these third-party partners may act as data controllers; in such cases, they have their own privacy policies. 

These third parties include:

  • Third parties in the event of a change of control, for legal reasons, or with your prior consent
  • Third parties or other Asmodee entities wishing to know your main interests to constitute similar audiences and target prospects that match your profile. In the context of this specific data processing, ANA is not the Data Controller relating to prospecting and you will not be subject to prospecting, your data is only used to constitute profiles similar to yours

Please note that this list is not exhaustive and there may be other circumstances in which we share your Data with third parties, provided it is in the legitimate interests of Asmodee, or permitted under applicable laws or is necessary to enable us to comply with our legal obligations.

In this context, your Personal Data may be transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA) to countries that do not provide the same level of protection as that provided within the EEA, such as China and Canada. In the absence of a decision of adequacy being issued by the European Commission, any such transfer of your Personal Data will be governed by standard contractual clauses adopted by the European Commission. You may contact us in order to obtain a copy, although certain details may be omitted for confidentiality reasons.

Note for Quebec Residents and California Residents: We do not share or sell your data to third parties for separate commercial purposes. However, the meaning of “sale” and “share” under the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) is broad and may include sharing information with third parties through cookies and other trackers that we use for performance purposes, targeted advertisements, and social media purposes, as described above. Information disclosed to such third parties includes basic identification information, device information and other unique identifiers, internet activity, and commercial data. ANA uses cookies and other trackers, for purposes defined in our cookies policy. 

You have the right to accept or reject all cookies except strictly necessary cookies (this option will opt you out of all “sales” and “sharing” as defined by CPRA for cross-context behavioral or targeted advertising and of “profiling” cookies as defined in Quebec). To opt-out of all or selected cookies, please visit Your Privacy Choices / Cookies.

Is any Personal Data transferred outside the European Union?

We conduct our business worldwide and may transfer your Personal Data to other companies of the Asmodee Group or to partners in any geographical location. We want You to enjoy the best possible service and customer experience, whether online or in person, wherever You may be located in the world. Consequently, we may share your Personal Data with partners located outside the country in which You shared such Data with us for the first time. In any such case, we will always act in compliance with the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.  

In addition to establishing this Policy, the Asmodee Group also implements appropriate measures to ensure that your Personal Data is securely transferred to an Asmodee entity or external recipient located in a country offering a different level of protection to that of the country in which your Personal Data is collected. Where the recipient is located in a country where the legislation has not been covered by an adequacy decision issued by the European Union, we will ensure that the transfer is governed by standard contractual clauses of the European Commission which guarantee an adequate level of protection of privacy and fundamental personal rights, or equivalent guarantees, and/or appropriate technical and organisational measures.

How do we protect your Personal Data?

The security of your Personal Data is very important to us. The Personal Data collected on our Site is processed in line with secure protocols which considerably limit the risks of Data being intercepted or accessed by third parties. 

We notably use a range of protection technologies, such as encryption, authentication and fraud detection systems in order to protect your online account and payment transactions.

Covered by written commitments, we ensure that service providers and data controllers provide guarantees and implement adequate security measures in order to protect the Personal Data entrusted to them for processing, in accordance with applicable personal data protection law.

Due to the open nature of the internet, however, we are unable to exclude the possibility of piracy or unauthorised access by third parties. You accept these risks by continuing to use our Site. Within the limits of what is permitted under applicable laws, we reject all liability for any direct or indirect damage or loss You may suffer, or costs You may incur, due to any unauthorised access, loss or corruption of your Personal Data, including as a result of negligence.

Password security: We take all necessary measures to ensure that the password associated with your Account is stored securely (encryption via a strong and single flow direction algorithm).

However, password security also depends on its form. In order to be valid, we remind You that your password must be sufficiently complex and difficult to guess, even by someone who knows You well. When creating your AsmoConnect account via the internet, we offer You a password quality analysis tool and ask You to follow its recommendations.

What rights do You enjoy over your Personal Data?

Depending on your applicable data protection legislation, You may enjoy one or more of the following rights which may be exercised by You personally or by a legal representative acting on your behalf. We undertake to protect your rights and enable You to exercise them as You may deem fit.

  • Demand rectification of your Personal Data (e.g. if it requires updating or is inaccurate); 
  • Withdraw consent for the processing of your Personal Data or restrict the scope of its processing; 
  • Demand portability of your Personal Data;

Where processing is based on your consent (for example, newsletter subscriptions), you may withdraw your consent at any time without justification. You can exercise this right by changing your newsletter subscription options by clicking on the hyperlink provided for this purpose in each email we send.

For individuals seeking access to their data, we also require authentication to ensure that we are not providing personal data to an unauthorized person. 

See below for additional protections provided for those individuals in particular regions.

Right to submit a complaint to a supervisory authority:

We inform You of your right to submit a complaint to a competent supervisory authority in relation to the processing of your Personal Data.

UNITED STATES CONSUMER PRIVACY RIGHTS

While ANA applies the GDPR benchmark globally, there are specific privacy laws in the U.S., including California’s CCPA, as amended by the CPRA, and certain similar consumer privacy laws in other states. To this effect, ANAcomplies with rights of consumers regarding the personal data that we collect and hold about them.  Those rights vary by region, and by state within the U.S.

Your California Privacy Rights:

California residents have certain additional rights in relation to their personal data, subject to certain exceptions. For example, as a Client of ANA and a resident, you may have the right to:

Transparency. Businesses that collect personal data subject to the California CCPA and CPRA or the laws of certain other States, have a responsibility to provide you with notice regarding the categories of personal data to be collected (see “WHAT Personal data do we collect?” above), the purposes for which the categories of personal data are collected or used (see “What use do we make of the information collected ?” above), whether that information is sold or shared (see “WITH  whom do we share your data?” above), and the length of time we intend to retain each category of personal data, or if that is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period (see “FOR HOW LONG will it be retained?” above), among other information.

Access the categories and specific pieces of personal data we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which the personal data is collected, the business purpose for collecting the personal data, and the categories of third parties with whom ANA shares personal data.

Correct inaccurate or obsolete personal data that We may maintain.

Delete the personal data under certain circumstances.

Opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal data.

California residents can contact us by using one of the contact methods below, or you may accept or reject all cookies except strictly necessary cookies (this option will opt you out of all “sales” and “sharing” as defined by CPRA for cross-context behavioral or targeted advertising) by visiting Your Privacy Choices / Cookies.

Right to non discrimination. We do not discriminate against customers who exercise any of their rights described in our privacy policy.

California’s Shine the Light Law:

California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as "Shine The Light" law, permits California residents to annually request information regarding the disclosure of your personal data (if any) to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year. We do not share personal data with third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes.

CANADA CONSUMER PRIVACY RIGHTS

While ANA applies the GDPR benchmark globally, there are specific privacy laws in Canada, including the Quebec Act, and certain similar consumer privacy laws at the federal and provincial levels. To this effect, ANA complies with rights of consumers regarding the personal data that we collect and hold about them.  Those rights vary by province.

Your Quebec Privacy Rights:

 Transparency. Upon request, ANA shall inform the individual of:

  • The personal information collected from the individual;
  • The categories of individuals who have access to the information within the organization;
  • How long the information will be retained;
  • The contact information for the Privacy Officer.

Correction and Erasure.  When you are informed of the existence in a file or record of inaccurate, incomplete or equivocal information about you, or if its collection, communication or retention is not authorized by law, you may make a request for its correction or erasure.

Deindexation. Individuals can ask organizations to stop posting their personal information or to de-index any hyperlinks to their name that provide access to information if such posting causes harm to the individual or contravenes a law or court order (right to erasure or to be forgotten).

Portability. The right to portability allows an individual to obtain access to computerized personal information that he or she has provided to an organization, for example, when creating an account online, in a structured and commonly used technological format. An individual may request access to his or her personal information for his or her own use, including for the purpose of retaining the information in a private storage space or disclosing it to a third party of his or her choice. At the request of the individual, the information may also be disclosed to any person or organization authorized by law to collect it.

Assistance. Asmodee has delegated the internal management and oversight of its privacy program to its Privacy Officer. It is the Privacy Officer who approves and implements privacy policies and procedures, ensures their proper functioning and reports to Asmodee’s senior management on the effectiveness of the program.

The Privacy Officer is also responsible for providing you with the necessary support in the event of a privacy-related question, complaint or request. For more information, please consult the "Contact us" section.

Exercise of your rights:

We have appointed a Data Protection Officer.

The contact details of the Data Protection Officer are as follows:

E-mail address: dataprivacy@asmodee.com         
Tel: 01 76 21 80 20

In any such case, a black and white copy of the front side or photo page of one of these documents will suffice.

Either in writing or via power of attorney, You may designate an agent authorised to issue requests on your behalf for the exercise of your rights under the CCPA. Before accepting any such request from an agent, we will require the agent to provide proof of You having authorised them to act on your behalf and may require You to substantiate your identity directly with us.

A response will be issued within one (1) month of receiving any such request.

If required, this period may be extended to two (2) months by Asmodee subject to providing You with notification, depending on the complexity and/or the number of requests.

In the case of a request for the erasure of your Personal Data and/or in the event of You exercising your right to demand the deletion of your Personal Data, Asmodee may retain such Data in Temporary Storage for a period enabling it to meet its legal obligations or for evidentiary purposes during the applicable period of statutory limitation.

We may occasionally update the Policy. We will notify You of any such change by amending the date placed at the very start of the Policy and, in certain cases, we may issue other forms of notification (e.g. by publishing a declaration on our Site homepage or by sending You an e-mail). We encourage You to consult the Privacy Policy whenever You interact with us in order to be kept informed about our personal data protection practices and about the methods at your disposal for controlling how your Personal Data is used and in order to protect your privacy.
