Privacy Policy
Last updated 17 June 2026
Placeholders in [brackets] must be completed with the real registered details before this site is treated as legally published. Review with a Finnish data protection professional if you begin collecting analytics, accounts or payments.
This policy explains how GabaCool Games processes personal data when you visit gabacool.games or contact us. We process personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, 2016/679) and the Finnish Data Protection Act (tietosuojalaki 1050/2018).
Controller
- Controller: [Registered company name Oy], Business ID [1234567-8]
- Address: [Street address, postal code, Helsinki, Finland]
- Contact for privacy matters: hello@gabacool.games
We have not appointed a statutory Data Protection Officer, as our processing does not meet the thresholds in Article 37 GDPR. Privacy questions can be sent to the address above.
What data we process
This is a static informational website. We keep data collection to a minimum.
- Contact data. If you email us, we receive your email address, name (if given) and the content of your message.
- Technical/server data. When the site is loaded, standard technical data (such as IP address, browser type and timestamps) may be processed by our hosting provider to deliver the page and maintain security.
We do not use advertising trackers or profiling. [If you add analytics or cookies, describe them here, including any consent mechanism.]
Purposes and legal bases
- Responding to enquiries — legal basis: our legitimate interest in answering you, and steps prior to entering a contract where relevant (Art. 6(1)(f) and 6(1)(b) GDPR).
- Operating and securing the website — legal basis: legitimate interest in providing a functional, secure service (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
- Legal compliance — where we must retain or disclose data to meet a legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR).
Recipients and transfers
Personal data may be processed on our behalf by service providers acting as data processors, including our website host [hosting provider, e.g. GitHub Pages] and our email provider [email provider]. We do not sell personal data. Where a provider transfers data outside the EU/EEA, that transfer is protected by an adequacy decision or the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
Retention
We keep email correspondence only as long as needed to handle your matter and to meet any legal record-keeping obligations, after which it is deleted. Server logs held by our host are retained according to that provider's policy.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
- access the personal data we hold about you;
- have inaccurate data corrected, or incomplete data completed;
- have your data erased ("right to be forgotten");
- restrict or object to certain processing;
- data portability, where applicable;
- withdraw any consent at any time, without affecting prior processing.
To exercise these rights, contact hello@gabacool.games. We respond within one month as required by the GDPR.
Supervisory authority
If you believe we have handled your personal data unlawfully, you may lodge a complaint with the Finnish supervisory authority, the Office of the Data Protection Ombudsman (Tietosuojavaltuutetun toimisto), tietosuoja.fi.
Changes
We may update this policy as our services change. The current version is always published on this page with its effective date.
