7.2Some or all of your data may be stored outside of the European Economic Area (“the EEA”) (The EEA consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein). You are deemed to accept and agree to this by using Our Services and submitting information to Us.

8. Do We Share Your Data?
8.1We may sometimes contract with third parties to supply products and services to you on Our behalf. These may include payment processing, delivery of goods, search engine facilities, advertising, and marketing. In some cases, the third parties may require access to some or all of your data. Where any of your data is required for such a purpose, We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data will be handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, Our obligations, and the obligations of the third party under the law. Subject to your settings, we provide certain Information to advertisers who will use them to serve you with ads in our Games, and we measure who sees and clicks on their ads. We also share advertising identifiers, along with the interests or other characteristics of a device or the person using it, to help partners decide whether to serve an ad to that device or to enable them to conduct marketing, brand analysis, personalise advertising, or similar activities. For our mobile games (Art of Solitaire on iOS and Android only), advertising is delivered through AppLovin MAX, our ad mediation platform, which serves ads from multiple ad networks. Our current ad partners are: AppLovin, Google AdMob, Google Ad Manager, DT Exchange, Ad4Game, ReklamUp, InMobi, ironSource, Liftoff/Vungle, Meta, Mintegral, Unity, and Potensus. This list may change over time as networks are added or removed. For Goalman (web), advertising is delivered through Google AdSense (H5). Ads served in Goalman are non-personalised: they are not based on a profile of your past behaviour. We also show “house ads” in Goalman that promote our own games (currently Art of Solitaire), and from time to time these promotions may feature selected third parties. In Goalman, we also work with MomentScience (AdsPostX, Inc., based in the United States) to present optional offers and promotions at certain in-game moments. If you view or interact with an offer, your browser and device information, IP address, and interaction data are shared with MomentScience to deliver and measure it. If you choose to redeem an offer, any email address or phone number you enter is provided directly to MomentScience and processed under its own privacy policy, available at https://momentscience.com/privacy-policy. For more information on how to limit or opt-out from personalized advertisement, please see Section 13 (Our Use of Cookies) below.
8.2We may compile statistics about the use of Our Services including data on traffic, usage patterns, user numbers, sales, and other information. All such data will be anonymised and will not include any personally identifying data, or any anonymised data that can be combined with other data and used to identify you. We may from time to time share such data with third parties such as prospective investors, affiliates, partners, and advertisers. Data will only be shared and used within the bounds of the law.
8.3We may sometimes use third party data processors that are located outside of the European Economic Area (“the EEA”) (The EEA consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein). Where We transfer any personal data outside the EEA, We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data is treated as safely and securely as it would be within the UK and under the GDPR including:
8.3.1Analytics, infrastructure, and related service providers, including: Mixpanel (EU region) for in-game and Reddit-game analytics; Google Analytics and Google Search Console for the flick.games studio site; Cloudflare Web Analytics for the flick.games and goalman.club sites; Supabase for game backend and authentication services; Bugsnag for crash and error reporting; Smartlook, a tool used to record user experience within Art of Solitaire; and Meta (Facebook), to which we send certain analytics events. Crash and diagnostic data may also be sent to Apple and Google by default as part of the iOS and Android platforms. We may also use attribution providers (such as Singular) to understand how users find our games.
8.3.2Ad networks for the purposes of serving ads.
8.3.3Offer and promotion providers, currently MomentScience (AdsPostX, Inc.), which delivers optional offers in Goalman as described in section 8.1.
8.4In certain circumstances, We may be legally required to share certain data held by Us, which may include your personal data, for example, where We are involved in legal proceedings, where We are complying with legal requirements, a court order, or a governmental authority.
8.5From time to time we may share fully anonymised analytics data from Art of Solitaire (data from which you cannot be identified, directly or indirectly) with Worldmodeldata Limited for the purpose of training their artificial-intelligence models. We only share data in anonymised form for this purpose. We do not share any data that identifies you, and we never share Google sign-in data (see section 8A) for this or any artificial-intelligence training purpose.
8A. Google Sign-In (Goalman)
When you choose to sign in to Goalman using your Google account, Google provides us with your email address, your name, and your profile picture (if you have one). We use this information solely to create and authenticate your Goalman account. It is stored in our authentication system (Supabase) for that purpose only.
We handle Google user data in line with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. In particular, we do not:
- use your Google sign-in data to serve or personalise advertising;
- share, transfer, or sell your Google sign-in data to any third party, including ad networks, analytics providers, or data and artificial-intelligence partners;
- use your Google sign-in data to train artificial-intelligence or machine-learning models;
- use your Google sign-in data for any purpose other than providing and improving the Goalman sign-in and account features you have requested.
You can delete your Goalman account and the associated data at any time using the “Delete Account / Data” option on the Goalman settings page.
8B. Goalman Browser Notifications
Goalman may ask your permission to send browser notifications (for example, to let you know when it is your turn or when a game event occurs). These are delivered through your web browser’s standard notification feature and only after you grant permission. You can withdraw this permission at any time in your browser settings. We do not use a third-party push-notification provider for these notifications.
8C. Username Moderation (Goalman)
When you choose a username in Goalman, we check it using an automated moderation process, including a large language model provided by Google (Gemini), to help ensure usernames are appropriate. If you sign in with Google, we may offer your Google account name as an editable suggestion for your username, but we do not send your Google account information to the moderation provider; only the username you choose is processed for this purpose. Goalman does not include player-to-player messaging.
9. What Happens If Our Business Changes Hands?
9.1We may, from time to time, expand or reduce Our business and this may involve the sale and/or the transfer of control of all or part of Our business. Any personal data that you have provided will, where it is relevant to any part of Our business that is being transferred, be transferred along with that part and the new owner or newly controlling party will, under the terms of this Privacy Policy, be permitted to use that data only for the same purposes for which it was originally collected by Us.
9.2In the event that any of your data is to be transferred in such a manner, you will not be contacted in advance and informed of the changes.
10. How Can You Control Your Data?
10.1When you submit personal data via Our Services, you may be given options to restrict Our use of your data. In particular, We aim to give you strong controls on Our use of your data for direct marketing purposes (including the ability to opt-out of receiving emails from Us which you may do by unsubscribing using the links provided in Our emails and at the point of providing your details and by managing your Account).
10.2You may also wish to sign up to one or more of the preference services operating in the UK: The Telephone Preference Service (“the TPS”), the Corporate Telephone Preference Service (“the CTPS”), and the Mailing Preference Service (“the MPS”). These may help to prevent you receiving unsolicited marketing. Please note, however, that these services will not prevent you from receiving marketing communications that you have consented to receiving.
10.3We use profiling to tailor ads; this uses your app activity and device identifiers. You can switch off personalised ads in in-app settings or via your device. (This applies to Art of Solitaire on mobile. Ads in Goalman are non-personalised, as described in section 8.1.)
