Such disclosure or access may occur if we have a good faith belief that we are legally compelled to do so, or that disclosure is appropriate in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding actual or suspected illegal activity, fraud, or other substantial wrongdoing.

5.Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Pix Brix and some of our Service Providers utilize “cookies”, anonymous identifiers and other tracking technologies which help us provide and improve our Services, personalize your experience, monitor the performance of our activities and campaigns, and enhance the stability, security and functionality of our Services.

In order for some of these technologies to work properly, a small data file (“cookie”) must be downloaded and stored on your device. Some cookies and other technologies serve to recall Personal Data, such as an IP address, and are used for purposes of session and user authentication, security, keeping the user’s preferences, connection stability, monitoring performance and generally providing and improving our Services.

While we do not change our practices in response to a “Do Not Track” signal in the HTTP header from a browser or mobile application, most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether or not to accept them and to remove them. You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with your browser.

We conduct tracking in the Pix Brix App via tracking technologies and third party tracking services.

Such additional data will then be retained by us for legal purposes (e.g. so we have proof of the identity of the person submitting the request), in accordance with our data retention policy.

9.Children’s Privacy

As the Pix Brix App may be used by children, we do not knowingly collect Personal Data from children for our own purposes, and do not wish to do so. If we learn that any children data was collected or processed via the Pix Brix App without obtaining the necessary approvals and consent under applicable law, we will make all efforts to promptly delete any Personal Data stored with us with regard to such child. If you believe that we might have any such data, please contact us at info@pix-brix.com.

We recognize the requirement to provide further privacy protections with respect to personal information collected from children.

Even though the Pix Brix app targets children, please be advised that we do not collect, store, use or disclose any personal information with respect to children under the age of 16 as detailed in the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) [see: https://www.ftc.gov/enforcement/rules/rulemaking-regulatory-reform-proceedings/childrens-online-privacy-protection-rule]

In order for us to maintain such condition, the registration process to all Services including Customer apps require you to choose whether you are under the age of 16 or not. In case you have chosen the option that you are under the age of 16, certain features in the applications will be disabled, such as: email and notifications communication, commenting on projects and audio in uploaded videos. In addition, uploaded projects of children under the age of 13 go through a strict screening process.

In any case, if you are under the age of consent in your jurisdiction, you may not use our App without adult supervision. We do not provide privacy measures designed to protect children when using the internet unsupervised.

Data Controller and Data Processor

Certain data protection laws and regulations typically distinguish between two main roles for parties processing Personal Data: the “Data Controller”, who determines the purposes and means of processing, and the “Data Processor”, who processes the data on behalf of the Data Controller. Below we explain how these roles apply to our Services, to the extent that such laws and regulations apply.

Pix Brix is the “Data Controller” of their End Users’ Personal Data, as Makeree processes such data solely on such Pix Brix’s behalf. This means that in such cases, Makeree will only process such End Users’ data in accordance with the reasonable instructions Pix Brix, subject to Makeree’s Terms of Service and Data Processing Agreement, and strictly on Pix Brix’s behalf. Pix Brix will be solely responsible for meeting any legal requirements applicable to Data Controllers (such as establishing a legal basis for processing, obtaining any necessary consents and approvals, and responding to Data Subject Rights requests concerning the data Pix Brix controls).

We will give you prior notice if any substantial changes are involved, via any of the communication means available to us, or on the Services. After such period, all amendments shall be deemed accepted by you.
