Privacy Policy

UK GDPR & Data Protection Act 2018 Compliant. Effective Date: 1 January 2026. Discover how FuturePace Sport LLC processes, protects, and respects your personal information.

1. Data Controller Identification & Regulatory Framework

This Privacy Policy explains how FuturePace Sport LLC ("Company", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and safeguards information obtained from visitors to futurepacesportsocial.com.

For the purposes of the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 2018), FuturePace Sport LLC operates as the Data Controller responsible for your personal data.

Corporate Office: 15801 NE 24th St, Bellevue, WA 98008 • Privacy Officer Email: [email protected].

2. Principles of Lawful Processing Under UK GDPR

In accordance with Article 5 of the UK GDPR, we adhere strictly to the fundamental principles of data protection:

  • Lawfulness, fairness, and transparency: Personal data is processed fairly, lawfully, and in an open manner.
  • Purpose limitation: Data is collected solely for specified, explicit, and legitimate studio operations.
  • Data minimization: We collect only the minimum personal data strictly necessary for our interactions.
  • Accuracy: Reasonable steps are taken to ensure personal information remains accurate and current.
  • Storage limitation: Records are maintained only as long as necessary for business correspondence.
  • Integrity and confidentiality: Appropriate technical safeguards protect data from unauthorized access or accidental loss.

3. Categories of Personal Data Collected

Because our social games do not require accounts, sign-ups, or payment instruments, the volume of personal data processed by FuturePace Sport LLC is minimal:

  • Inquiry & Contact Information: Your full name, email address, corporate entity (if provided), project category, and message contents submitted through our application forms.
  • Verification Affirmations: Confirmation that you are at least 18 years of age and agree to our processing conditions.
  • Technical Metadata: Non-personally identifiable server logs including browser type, operating system version, and timestamp of access.

4. Technical Telemetry & Server Log Files

When your browser requests resources from futurepacesportsocial.com, our web servers automatically generate standard temporary connection logs. These logs capture technical telemetry including truncated IP addresses, user-agent strings, referring URLs, and resource latency metrics.

This technical telemetry is analyzed strictly to diagnose infrastructure issues, defend against denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, and verify that game assets render at target 60 FPS performance thresholds. Server logs are never cross-referenced to build personal marketing profiles.

5. Browser Local Storage & Cookie Architecture

Unlike conventional online portals that utilize intrusive third-party cross-site cookies, futurepacesportsocial.com relies primarily on lightweight browser localStorage keys:

  • futurepace_age_verified: Stores your affirmation that you are 18 years or older, preventing repetitive gate prompts during your visit.
  • futurepace_cookie_consent: Stores your preference regarding cookie categories.
  • Game Audio / UI State: Saves mute toggles and screen aspect preferences directly inside your local browser sandbox.

Local storage keys remain entirely within your device's web browser and are never transmitted across commercial tracking networks. You may purge this storage at any time through your browser's history and site settings.

6. Purpose & Lawful Basis for Processing Inquiries

When you submit a project brief or general inquiry through our Game Development or Contact pages, we process your information under the following legal bases:

  • Article 6(1)(b) UK GDPR (Contractual Inquiries): To evaluate your project specifications, prepare commercial engineering proposals, and respond to your direct request.
  • Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR (Legitimate Interests): To maintain professional studio communications, document commercial leads, and prevent abusive form flooding.
  • Article 6(1)(c) UK GDPR (Legal Compliance): To verify and uphold our strict 18+ age restrictions under UK advertising and social entertainment codes.

7. Zero Advertising Networks & No Commercial Tracking

FuturePace Sport LLC does NOT deploy third-party advertising pixels, programmatic ad networks (such as Google AdSense, Meta Pixel, or Criteo), or behavioural tracking beacons on futurepacesportsocial.com.

We do not sell, rent, monetize, or trade your personal data to data brokers or advertising syndicates under any circumstances.

8. Protection of Minors & Zero Tolerance for Under-18 Data

Our website and social games are exclusively engineered for adults aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly solicit, collect, or store personal information from individuals under the age of 18.

If we become aware that personal data belonging to a minor has been transmitted through our contact forms, we will take immediate steps to permanently expunge that information from our mailboxes and database records. Parents or guardians who believe their child has submitted personal details should alert us immediately at [email protected].

9. Third-Party Service Providers & Technical Processors

To maintain reliable website availability and secure message delivery, FuturePace Sport LLC partners with select technical processors:

  • Web Hosting & Content Delivery: Secure hosting facilities providing server infrastructure and DDoS mitigation.
  • SMTP Transmission Services: Secure authenticated mail transport agents used strictly to deliver your form submissions to our corporate mailbox at [email protected].

All technical processors are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and Data Processing Addendums (DPAs) requiring adherence to UK GDPR data protection standards.

10. International Data Transfers & Cross-Border Safeguards

FuturePace Sport LLC is based in the United States, while our service serves audiences within the United Kingdom and internationally. When you submit personal information through our platform, your data may be transferred to and processed within the United States.

We implement appropriate cross-border safeguards in accordance with Chapter V of the UK GDPR, utilizing UK International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTAs) and Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) to ensure your data receives an equivalent standard of protection as guaranteed under UK law.

11. Data Retention & Scheduled Erasure

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the operational purposes for which it was gathered:

  • B2B Inquiries: Communications regarding prospective game development engagements are retained for up to 24 months from the date of last contact for project reference, unless you request earlier deletion.
  • General Messages: Support and feedback messages are erased within 12 months after resolution.
  • Server Logs: Temporary connection log files are automatically overwritten or purged within 30 days.

12. Technical Security Measures & Encryption Standards

Technical Security and Data Flow Architecture

FuturePace Sport LLC enforces comprehensive physical, electronic, and organizational safeguards to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction:

  • All web traffic between your browser and our servers is secured via Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3) with 256-bit encryption.
  • Mail transmission channels utilize authenticated SSL/TLS SMTP protocols.
  • Server access is strictly restricted to authorized engineering personnel through multi-factor authentication and role-based permissions.
