Privacy policy
Spicy Yoghurt services
Spicy Yoghurt operates this website, including the games, apps and tools that run on it. This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal information we receive from users of the site and apps.
Who is responsible for your data
Spicy Yoghurt, based in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, is responsible for the processing of your personal data as described on this page. You can reach us at info@spicyyoghurt.com.
How we collect and use your data
- Cookies and similar technologies - Cookies are small text files stored on the device you use our services on. We don't set any cookies of our own to follow you. The cookies on this site come from the analytics and ad serving technologies described below. You can delete cookies at any time in your browser settings.
- Analytics technologies - We use Google Analytics to collect information about how you use our services and with what device, such as the pages you visit, how long you stay, your browser, device type and approximate location. Google Analytics places cookies for this (_ga and _ga_ followed by a code) as soon as you visit the site. We only use this information to optimize our own services.
- Ad serving technologies - We show ads through Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve appropriate advertising to you and help track results and measure effectiveness. On your first visit a consent message from Google asks whether you agree to this. Personalised ads are only shown with your consent.
- Comment sections - You can leave a comment on our tutorials, news articles and tools without an account. We store the name and comment you enter, together with the page and the time. We check every comment before it appears, and once published it is visible to everyone. To prevent spam, we also store a scrambled code (a hash) of your IP address for 30 days; we never store the IP address itself. The comment sections don't use cookies and don't load anything from other companies. After you post a comment, your browser keeps a key for it in its local storage, so you can still edit or delete the comment on that device while it waits for approval. We only store a scrambled version of this key with your comment.
- Email - If you email us, we use your email address and your message only to answer you.
- Server logs - Like any website, our web server processes technical data such as your IP address to deliver the site to you and keep it secure.
Legal basis
- Analytics - Our legitimate interest in understanding how our services are used, so we can improve them.
- Personalised ads - Your consent, given through the consent message. Some ad partners process data on the basis of their legitimate interest. You can object to that in the same message, under "Manage options".
- Comment sections - Our legitimate interest in letting visitors discuss our content, and in keeping the comment sections free of spam.
- Email and server logs - Our legitimate interest in answering your questions and in running a working, secure website.
Who we share your data with
We don't sell your personal information. We share the bare minimum with the third parties that provide our analytics and ads: Google and its advertising partners through Google's consent message. You can see the full list of ad partners in the consent message. Our hosting provider processes the server logs and stores the comments on our behalf.
Transfers outside the European Union
Google is based in the United States, so data collected by Google may be processed there. Google participates in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, which the European Commission recognises as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data.
How long we keep your data
- Analytics - The Google Analytics cookies expire after at most two years. Google Analytics keeps data about the pages you visit and the actions you take for 2 months, and data linked to the Analytics cookies for 14 months.
- Ads - Google and its partners keep ad data for the periods they set. You can find these in the consent message under "Manage options".
- Comment sections - A published comment stays on the site until we remove it, or until you ask us to. Comments we don't publish are deleted within 30 days. The hash of your IP address is deleted after 30 days. The key in your browser stops working once the comment is approved, and your browser removes it when the comment is approved or deleted, and after 30 days at the latest.
- Email - We keep emails as long as needed to answer your question and handle any follow-up.
Your rights
You have the right to access your personal data, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to its processing, and to receive it in a portable format. Where we process data based on your consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time. To change or withdraw your choice for ads, delete the cookies for this site in your browser. The consent message will then appear again on your next visit. To stop analytics, you can block or delete cookies in your browser. To have a comment changed or removed, email us at info@spicyyoghurt.com with the page and the name you used.
Third party services
Our websites and services may contain advertising or links to third party services. If you use those services or click on those links, including an advertisement, you might leave the Spicy Yoghurt service and go to the site you selected. If you visit a third-party website, you should consult that site's or service's privacy policy.
Security
The security of your personal information is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Changes to this privacy policy
We may update this privacy policy, for example when our services change. The latest version is always on this page, and the date at the top shows when it was last updated.
