We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time. Please check the Privacy Policy each time you use our Platforms to ensure you are aware of any changes in our privacy practices. Our Privacy Policy will indicate the date it was last updated.

1- HOW WE PROTECT THE ONLINE PRIVACY OF CHILDREN UNDER 13
Beady System ApS takes many precautions to protect the online privacy of children. Whenever we refer to “children” in this Privacy Policy, we mean children under the age of 13. Please help us in protecting children’s privacy by instructing them to never provide any personal information (full name, email address, home address, phone number, etc.) without your permission.
Beady System ApS follows the principles of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), a U.S. law designed to protect the online privacy of children, in our online services and Apps that are directed to children. If you would like to learn more about COPPA, you can refer to the “Children’s Privacy” section of the Federal Trade Commission’s website.
Currently, Beady System ApS does not knowingly collect any personal information from children or within the child-directed portions of our Platforms except as otherwise outlined in this Privacy Policy. If we were to collect and store personal information from children, we would obtain the consent of a parent or legal guardian before such collection, unless the collection of information falls within an exception that is permitted under COPPA.
Parents who have registered their child to the Beady System ApS should understand that information, including but not limited to the registered email address and behavioral activity within the app, may be collected by Beady System ApS. In addition, any feedback provided by users may be used to make adjustments to and improve upon Beady System ApS products including but not limited to the gameplay, app flow, story, art and animation.
In our Apps directed to children users, we collect information which includes persistent identifiers such as a device identifier (“device ID”) or an Internet Protocol address (“IP address”). This information is collected solely for the purpose of providing functionality and support for our internal operations and optimizing our users’ game experience.
If you believe that we may have unintentionally collected your child’s personal information without your prior consent, you may contact Beady System ApS:
