  1. Definitions

  • Game: It is an interactive educational platform that combines engaging storytelling with problem-solving to facilitate a deep conceptual understanding of academic concepts. This approach aims to create an emotionally rich and immersive learning environment that motivates students to actively participate in the learning process. The platform utilizes an innovative teaching method that presents academic material through a series of interconnected stories, with students being encouraged to interact with the characters and help solve the problems they encounter. This approach is designed to enhance students' motivation and engagement, promoting a deeper understanding and retention of the academic material.

  • Privacy Dashboard: A Privacy Dashboard is a feature within a user account that provides users with control over their personal data and privacy settings. It allows users to view their personal data collected by the platform, such as their name, email address, and account activity. Users can access the Privacy Dashboard from their user account to review and modify their privacy settings, including opting in or out of certain data collection and processing activities.

  • UserID: A User ID is a unique identification number assigned to an individual or supervisor of underaged individual or supervisor of a group of individuals in the Mastory Application. This ID is used to keep track of the user's progress and data within the platform, which is stored separately from their personal information for privacy and security purposes. The User ID is created once the user's data is connected to the "auth0" account, and it serves as a secure identifier for the user's account.

  • User Account: A User Account is a personalized profile created by an individual or a supervisor of an underaged individual or a group of individuals in the Mastory application that enables them to access and engage with the educational content or supervise the progress of one or multiple individuals with the educational content. The User Account includes personal information, such as the individual's name and email address, and is secured with a password or the Single Sign-On (SSO) system to ensure account security. Once logged in, the user can track their progress through the educational material, save their progress, and resume from where they left off. Users must maintain the confidentiality of their account information and comply with the platform's terms and conditions while using the User Account.

  • Personal Data: mean any information that can either itself identify you as an individual ("Personally Identifying Information") or that can be connected to you indirectly by linking it to Personally Identifying Information. Mastory also processes anonymous data, aggregated or not, to analyze and produce statistics related to the habits, usage patterns, and demographics of customers as a group or as individuals. Such anonymous data does not allow the identification of the customers to which it relates.

  • Cookies: Cookies are text files placed on your computer, and similar technologies (e.g. web beacons, pixels, ad tags and device identifiers)

  1. Your rights and control mechanisms

The data protection laws of the European Union grant their residents certain rights in relation to their Personal Data. While other jurisdictions may provide fewer statutory rights, we make the tools designed to exercise such rights available to our customers worldwide. 

To allow you to exercise your data protection rights in a simple way we are providing a dedicated section on the page of the UserAccount. This gives you access to your Personal Data, allows you to rectify and delete it where necessary and to object to its use where you feel necessary. To access it, log into your UserAccount. To delete your personal data, you should use the implemented function detailed as following. To use this function, it is available as a mailto: dpo@mastory.io with the pre-filled text "Please delete my personal data". You just must click the send button and we'll get an email with the delete request. In most cases, you can access, manage, or delete Personal Data in the Privacy Dashboard, but you may also contact Mastory with questions or requests via the contact processes described in sections 15. below.

As a visitor to the Website without being logged in, you can control Cookies through the process described in section 11. above. You can also contact Mastory or its European representative through the contact info provided in section 15. below to exercise your rights or use this web form.

As a resident of the European Union, you have the following rights in relation to your Personal Data:


13.1. Right of Access.

You have the right to access your Personal Data that we hold about you, i.e. the right to require free of charge 

  1. information whether your Personal Data is retained, 

  2. access to and/or 

  3. duplicates of the Personal Data retained. 

You can use the right to access to your Personal Data through the UserAccount. To access your personal data, you should use the implemented function detailed as following. To use this function, it is available as a mailto:dpo@mastory.io to our email with the pre-filled text "Please provide me an access about my personal data". You just have to click the send button and we'll get an email with the access request. If the request affects the rights and freedoms of others or is manifestly unfounded or excessive, we reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee (taking into account the administrative costs of providing the information or communication or taking the action requested) or refuse to act on the request.


13.2 Right to Rectification

If we process your Personal Data, we shall endeavor to ensure by implementing suitable measures that your Personal Data is accurate and up-to-date for the purposes for which it was collected. If your Personal Data is inaccurate or incomplete, you can change the information you provided via the dpo@mastory.io 


13.3. Right to Cancellation

You have the right to obtain deletion of Personal Data concerning you if the reason why we could collect it (see section 2. above) does not exist anymore or if there is another legal ground for its deletion. For individual items of Personal Data please edit them through the Privacy Dashboard or request the deletion via the Gamesupport page. You can also request the cancellation of your User Account via dpo@mastory.io email address.

As a result of deleting your User Account, you will lose access to Gameservices, including the User Account, Subscriptions and game-related information linked to the User Account and the possibility to access other services you are using the User Account for.

We allow you to restore your User Account during a grace period of 30 (thirty) days from the moment you request deletion of your User Account. This functionality allows you not to lose your account by mistake, because of your loss of your account credentials or due to hacking. During the suspension period, we will be able to finalize financial and other activities that you may have initiated before sending the User Account deletion request. After the grace period, Personal Data associated with your account will be deleted subject to section 4. above.

In some cases, deletion of your User Account, and therefore Personal Data deletion, is complicated. Namely, if your account has a business relationship with Mastory, such as due to your work for a game developer, you will only be able to delete your User Account after you have transferred this role to another user or have dissolved the business relationship. In some cases, considering the complexity and number of the requests, the period for Personal Data erasure may be extended, but for no longer than two further months.


13.4 Right to Objection

When our processing of your Personal Data is based on legitimate interests according to Article 6. section (1) paragraph (f) of the GDPR / section 4. of this Privacy Policy, you have the right to object to this processing. If you object, we will no longer process your Personal Data unless there are compelling and prevailing legitimate grounds for the processing as described in Article 21 of the GDPR; in particular if the data is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims. You also have the right to lodge a complaint at a supervisory authority.


13.5 Right to restriction of processing of your Personal Data

You have the right to obtain restriction of processing of your Personal Data under the conditions set out in article 18 of the GDPR.


13.6 Right to Personal Data portability

You have the right to receive your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit those data to another controller under the conditions set out in article 20 of the GDPR. Mastory makes your Personal Data available in structured HTML format through the Privacy Dashboard as described above.


  1. Children

The minimum age to create a User Account is 13 years. Mastory will not knowingly collect Personal Data from children under this age. Where certain countries apply a higher age of consent for the collection of Personal Data, Mastory requires parental consent before a User Account can be created and Personal Data associated with it collected. Mastory encourages parents to instruct their children to never give out personal information online.

We ensure that we comply with the age limitation according to the GDPR Article 8 by the following process.

Before starting the registration, you will be taken to the login page where a checkbox must be ticked, explicitly stating that you are over 13. If the User is not over 13 years, there is a redirection link to collect their parents’ consent before the registration. By using this method Mastory can ensure to comply with the data-protection requirements.


  1. Contact info

You can contact Mastory's data protection officer at the address mentioned at section 1. of this Privacy Policy. 

While we review any request sent by mail, please be aware that to combat fraud, harassment and identity theft, the only way to access, rectify or delete your data is through logging in with your User Account at https://app.mastory.io.
