Decisions made independently by a bank, payment card issuer, payment service provider, or other independent provider may be outside our control. You may need to contact the relevant provider directly regarding such a decision.

Information entered into the chat, together with related technical information, may be processed through JivoChat systems.

When online payment options are available, we share only the transaction, contact, billing, and technical information reasonably necessary to process or support the payment with the payment service provider identified during checkout.

10. International Data Transfers
Some service providers may process personal data outside Lithuania or the European Economic Area (“EEA”).
Where personal data is transferred to a country that has not been recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection, we will rely on an appropriate legal transfer mechanism where required, such as:
- A European Commission adequacy decision;
- Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission;
- Appropriate contractual, technical, and organizational safeguards; or
- Another legally recognized transfer mechanism.
You may contact us to request additional information about safeguards applicable to a particular international transfer.
11. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose or as required by applicable law.
Different retention periods may apply to different categories of personal data.
11.1 Orders and Accounting Records
Order, invoice, payment, transaction, and accounting records may generally be retained for 10 years or for another period required by applicable tax, accounting, or other law.
11.2 Delivery Evidence
Delivery records, screenshots, confirmations, relevant chat extracts, and other fulfilment evidence may generally be retained for up to 18 months after the order is completed.
If a refund, chargeback, complaint, fraud investigation, or legal dispute occurs, relevant information may be retained until the matter and any applicable legal claim period have ended.
11.3 Customer Support Communications
Customer support emails, exported chat records, and related attachments may generally be retained for up to 18 months after the request is resolved, unless longer retention is necessary for an unresolved dispute, legal obligation, fraud-prevention purpose, or legal claim.
Live chat history retained directly through JivoChat may also be subject to the functionality and retention settings of the applicable JivoChat service.
11.4 Customer Accounts
Account information may be retained while the account remains active and for a reasonable period after the last activity.
If an account is deleted, information that is not legally required may be deleted or anonymized.
Order, accounting, fraud-prevention, security, and dispute records may still be retained where legally necessary.
11.5 Technical and Security Logs
Technical, security, and server logs may generally be retained for up to 12 months, unless a security incident, fraud investigation, legal obligation, or technical issue requires longer retention.
11.6 Marketing Information
Marketing consent information may be retained until consent is withdrawn or the information is no longer required.
A minimal record of an unsubscribe request may be retained to prevent further marketing messages from being sent.
After the relevant retention period, personal data will be deleted, anonymized, or securely restricted unless continued retention is required or permitted by applicable law.
12. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data, including, where appropriate:

No Website, email service, chat system, payment system, storage system, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You are responsible for keeping your email account, Darkidox account, payment information, game account, and device secure.
Never send us your game account password, complete payment card details, authentication code, backup code, or account recovery code.
13. Children and Minors
The Services are not intended for children under 14 to use independently.
Where the processing of personal data in connection with an information society service is based on consent, a child in Lithuania may generally provide their own consent from the age of 14. Where the child is under 14, consent or authorization from a parent or legal guardian may be required.
Customers who are under the age of legal majority in their country may use the Services only with the authorization and supervision of a parent or legal guardian where required by applicable law.
We do not knowingly enter into contracts directly with children who do not have the legal capacity to enter into those contracts.
Where we become aware that personal data was collected from a child without the required authorization or another lawful basis, we will take appropriate steps to delete or restrict that personal data.
A parent or legal guardian who believes that a child has provided personal data without the required authorization may contact support@darkidox.com.
14. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to:
- Request confirmation of whether we process your personal data;

- Withdraw consent at any time;
- Object to direct marketing;

- Request human review of certain automated decisions; and
- Submit a complaint to a data protection authority.
These rights are not absolute.
For example, we may need to retain personal data to comply with accounting law, complete an order, investigate fraud, resolve a dispute, or establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim.
15. How to Exercise Your Rights
To submit a privacy request, email:
Please state the type of request and provide enough information for us to locate the relevant records.
We may request reasonable verification to ensure that personal data is not disclosed, altered, or deleted at the request of an unauthorized person.

For complex or numerous requests, this period may be extended where permitted by law. If an extension applies, we will inform you of the extension and the reason for it.
Requests are generally handled free of charge.
A reasonable fee may be charged, or a request may be refused, only where permitted by applicable law, including where a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
16. Complaints
If you have a privacy concern, please contact us first at support@darkidox.com so that we can investigate and attempt to resolve the matter.

Address: L. Sapiegos str. 17, LT-10312 Vilnius, Lithuania
Website: vdai.lrv.lt/en
You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in the European Union or European Economic Area country where you live, work, or believe an infringement occurred.

We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their separate privacy, security, or data processing practices.
