Your Rights
You have the right to access, rectify, erase, or restrict processing of your data. Submit requests via email to exercise these rights under GDPR and UK Data Protection Act 2018.
Data Security
We implement industry-standard encryption and access controls. Our pixel-space infrastructure ensures minimal data retention with algorithmic precision.
1. Information We Collect
We collect data necessary to deliver our gaming concepts, charting capabilities, and subscription services. Our collection is surgical—only what is essential for functionality and legal compliance.
Identity & Contact Data
When you subscribe to our Christmas offer or contact us, we collect your name, email address, and phone number. This data enables account management and support. We never store payment credentials—these are handled by certified PCI-DSS processors.
Technical & Usage Data
We automatically log IP addresses, browser types, and interaction patterns with our games and charts. This helps us optimize the dark canvas interface and detect anomalies. Session data is retained for 30 days maximum.
Newsletter & Marketing Preferences
By subscribing, you consent to receive updates about new game releases and charting tools. You can unsubscribe anytime via the link in our emails. We track engagement (open rates) to improve content relevance.
Prohibited Data Collection
We strictly avoid collecting sensitive data such as biometric identifiers, political opinions, or health information. Our minimalist approach respects user boundaries—no hidden trackers or third-party data brokers.
2. How We Use Your Data
Your data powers the Kancady Studio ecosystem—from rendering interactive game concepts to delivering precise charting visualizations. We use it lawfully, transparently, and only for specified purposes.

3. Data Sharing & Transfers
Kancady Studio operates with transparency. We do not sell your personal data. Sharing is limited to trusted processors under strict contractual safeguards.
Service Providers
Cloud hosting (UK-based servers), email delivery services, and payment processors. All providers are GDPR-compliant and process data only on our instructions.
Legal Obligations
We may disclose data if required by law, such as responding to court orders or regulatory requests from UK authorities. We will notify you unless legally prohibited.
International Transfers
Data stays within the UK/EEA. If transfers occur (e.g., to US cloud providers), we use Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.
4. Data Retention & Security
We retain data only as long as necessary. Our algorithmic precision ensures timely deletion, reducing risk and respecting privacy.
