Photon
For multi-user and real-time functions (motion, position, and interaction data, audio transmission), we use services from Photon Engine. In this context, technical connection and session data, as well as interaction and synchronization data, may be processed as required for multiplayer functions. Photon is used as a technical service provider. Further information on Photon’s data protection and compliance can be found at: https://www.photonengine.com/compliance
Meta Horizon and Quest Platform Services
For the distribution, provision, and operation of our Meta Quest applications, we use—insofar as implemented in the respective app—platform services from Meta Horizon / Meta Quest. This may include entitlement checks for authorization and license control, platform-related account and ID data, download and provisioning functions, as well as multiplayer and social features such as invites, Group Presence, Rosters, Rejoin, or Leaderboards.
In this context, app- and platform-specific identifiers, usage or entitlement status, technical device information, and session, presence, interaction, or leaderboard data required for the respective function may be processed.
To the extent we receive data via these services or transmit it to Meta, this occurs exclusively to the extent necessary for the operation of the respective app and the activated platform functions.
Which Meta platform functions are actually used depends on the specific app and its configuration. Further information on the platform services provided by Meta for Quest and Horizon apps can be found in Meta’s developer documentation for Platform Services / Platform Solutions.
8. Data Transfer to Third Countries
If personal data is transferred to third countries, this occurs only in compliance with applicable data protection requirements, particularly on the basis of adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses.
9. Data Retention Period
We store personal data only as long as necessary for the respective purposes or as required by legal retention periods.
-
Technical log and error data are regularly deleted or anonymized once they are no longer required for operation, security, or troubleshooting.
-
Support data is stored only as long as necessary to process the request and comply with legal obligations.
-
Usage data is deleted or anonymized as soon as the purpose of processing no longer applies.
