We use this information to optimize our services and ensure they function correctly across different platforms.
1.2 Personal Data
Personal Data refers to information that can be used to identify you as an individual. This may include your IP address, online identifiers, and any other data that could be linked to your identity. For your protection, we anonymize this data where possible, particularly in cases where the data is only needed for operational purposes.
2. Purpose and Legal Basis for Processing Data

We take this responsibility seriously and implement robust measures to ensure that your data is handled in compliance with GDPR standards.

To protect your privacy, we anonymize IP addresses and other identifying information as soon as it is collected. This anonymized data is then used for security purposes, such as detecting and preventing fraudulent activities, as well as for improving our services.
