Privacy Policy

1. Controller

2. Hosting and delivery

This website is hosted using ChatGPT Sites by OpenAI. The contracting entity for users in the European Economic Area is OpenAI Ireland Limited, 1st Floor, The Liffey Trust Centre, 117–126 Sheriff Street Upper, Dublin 1, D01 YC43, Ireland.

When you access the website, technically necessary connection and log data may be processed. This may include your IP address, access time, requested address, transferred data volume, browser and device information, referrer, and status or error data. This processing is necessary to deliver the website and maintain its stability, security, and protection against misuse.

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the secure, reliable, and efficient operation of this website. OpenAI processes this data as a hosting service provider under the agreements applicable to our account and may use subprocessors.

ChatGPT Sites does not currently support fixed data residency. Processing outside the European Economic Area may therefore occur. Any transfers are governed by the contractual data protection terms and appropriate safeguards applicable to our account. Further information is available in OpenAI’s EU Privacy Policy.

3. Contacting us

If you contact us by email or phone, we process the information you provide to answer your enquiry and manage further communication. Clicking the email address on this website does not itself send a message; it only opens the email application configured on your device.

Depending on the nature of your enquiry, processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR for pre-contractual measures or contract performance, or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR and our legitimate interest in handling business enquiries. Statutory retention obligations remain unaffected.

4. Cookies and local storage

Spacelime Studios currently does not use its own analytics, marketing, or advertising cookies on this website. The hosting provider may use cookies or similar storage technologies that are strictly necessary for operation, security, and access protection. Where these are strictly necessary, access is based on Section 25(2) of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG).

Because no tracking or marketing services requiring consent are currently used, no consent banner is displayed.

5. External links and Steam

This website may link to external services, such as Steam wishlist pages or social media profiles. A connection to the relevant provider is established only when you open such a link. The external provider’s privacy information applies to any subsequent processing.

YouTube videos, social media widgets, and similar external content are not currently embedded directly. Before activating them in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and obtain prior consent where required.

6. Recipients

Personal data is shared only with parties that need it for the purposes described above. These include OpenAI as the hosting provider and its subprocessors and, when you contact us, the communication and email service providers we use. Data may also be disclosed where required by law or where you have consented.

7. Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose. Contact enquiries are deleted after final processing unless statutory retention obligations, contractual claims, or legitimate documentation interests require longer storage. Technical log data is deleted or anonymised according to the retention periods applicable to the hosting service.

8. Your rights

Subject to the applicable legal requirements, you may have the following rights:

• access to your personal data,
• rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data,
• erasure or restriction of processing,
• data portability,
• objection to processing based on legitimate interests, and
• withdrawal of consent with effect for the future.

To exercise your rights, contact hello@spacelimestudios.com.

9. Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. For our registered office, the relevant authority is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information Baden-Württemberg.

10. Updates

We update this Privacy Policy when the website, the services used, or legal requirements change. This applies in particular before activating a contact form, embedded videos, social media widgets, or new analytics features.
