3. What is our legal basis for the processing
For both analytics and advertising we base the processing of personal data on the legitimate interest of PIXOWL, INC.. For analytics, this is our ability to analyze how players progress through our games to make them better, and to know our player-base on an aggregate level. For advertising, this is our ability to be able to off-set development costs and risk with advertising income.
For the third-parties we use, their legitimate interest is to be able to offer us their services, and for advertising third-parties and advertisers to be able to show you advertising.
