Last Updated:

February 29, 2024

Certamen Games, LLC d/b/a Splash Sports and its parents, affiliates, and subsidiaries (collectively “Splash Sports”, “we”, “our”, and “us”) are committed to protecting and maintaining your privacy. This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) is designed to help you understand how we collect, use, and share your Personal Data that is collected by and on SplashSports.com. Since its fantasy games platform and mobile application is available internationally, Splash Sports processes Personal Data in accordance with applicable national, provincial/state, and local laws and regulations.

Splash Sports’ Privacy Principles. Across all of our business activities we seek to base our privacy practices on accepted principles of privacy and data protection. These principles include:

Transparency: To be open about privacy practices, policies, developments, and the details of any processing that takes place and to specify the purposes for which Personal Data is collected and processed before such collection takes place.
Fairness in Processing: To obtain Personal Data in good faith by legitimate, lawful, and fair means and to process Personal Data only in accordance with the purposes for which it was collected.
Privacy by Design: To ensure we create solutions and process data with privacy at the forefront and in accordance with these principles.

Accountability: To be accountable for complying with measures that give effect to these principles, including by ensuring accountability of third parties with whom we interact through appropriate contracts.

Responsiveness to Privacy Requests: To be responsive to individual’s privacy rights afforded by law.
Protection: To protect Personal Data using reasonable security safeguards, to ensure data accuracy, and to limit use to that which is necessary for the processing purpose.

Scope of This Policy. This Policy applies to the processing of your Personal Data when you visit, register for, make purchases on, or use SplashSports.com, the Splash Sports mobile app, and other of our online services (the “Online Services”). This Policy also applies when we process your Personal Data to receive and respond to communications you make with us either online (such as by email) or offline to our physical address. We may also process your Personal Data under this Policy if you are a candidate for employment or apprenticeship with us. Finally, this Policy applies to the processing of Personal Data where you are a principal, employee, agent, or contractor of our business partners.

Splash Sports may have other unique privacy policies that apply to certain specific situations. To the extent you were provided with a different privacy policy and those policies or notices apply, those policies or notices will govern our interactions with you, not this one.
If you provide us with Personal Data of anyone other than yourself (such as a friend or family member), please note that you are responsible for complying with all applicable privacy and data protection laws prior to providing that information to Splash Sports (including obtaining consent, if required).
Please review this Policy carefully. To the extent permitted by applicable law, by providing us your Personal Data or otherwise interacting with us, you are agreeing to this Policy.

Marketing Uses, Cookies, and Other Activities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, including in accordance with your consent where required by applicable law, we may engage in the following activities:

We may use your contact details to contact you to determine whether you would like to initiate a business relationship with us or to send you marketing emails. If you do not wish to receive such marketing emails, you may opt out by declining to receive such emails when registering or in our subsequent communications by following opt-out instructions included in the email or at other information collection points on the Online Services.
We may display advertisements to you regarding the Online Services or other of our products and services that we believe are relevant to you based on your activities on the Online Services or on other web or digital properties. Such advertisements may be shown on our Online Services or the online services of others. We achieve this by using, and allowing third parties (e.g., Facebook, LinkedIn) to use certain cookies, eTags, pixels, web beacons, and other tracking technologies to track your activities on our Online Services and other online services. For more information about these activities and how to manage or opt out of them, please see our Notice on Cookies.

Processing Using Online Services Tracking. On certain of our websites, we use Google Analytics, to help us understand how users engage with this and other of our websites.

Interactive Features of our Online Services.

lawful transfer mechanisms and adequate safeguards, in accordance with applicable legal requirements, to protect your Personal Data.

How Long Your Personal Data Will Be Retained. We generally retain Personal Data for as long as needed for the specific business purpose or purposes for which it was collected. In some cases, we may be required to retain Personal Data for a longer period of time by law or for other necessary business purposes. Whenever possible, we aim to anonymize the information or remove unnecessary identifiers from records that we may need to keep for periods beyond the specified retention period.

When we delete information, it will be deleted from the active database, but may remain in our archives. We may also retain your information to prevent fraud or other unlawful activity or for similar purposes.

Changes to This Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to change this Policy from time to time. We will alert you when changes have been made by indicating the date this Policy was last updated as the date the Policy became effective or as otherwise may be required by law.
