IF YOU ARE USING THE SERVICE ON BEHALF OF AN ORGANIZATION, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND THE ORGANIZATION TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY AND ARE AGREEING TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY FOR THAT ORGANIZATION.

Mirth Turtle operates numerous services via the Website, including but not limited to video games, merchandise, membership systems, social integrations, video streams and more (collectively, the “Service”). In order to provide the Service to Mirth Turtle’s users (each a “User”), Mirth Turtle often has to access personal data that may be sensitive or important to Users. This Privacy Policy describes how we access, collect and use personal data regarding Users.
The Service involves accessing, collecting and processing personal data, which is information about individuals or that can be used to identify them. Subject to legal, contractual and technical requirements, you may choose not to provide Mirth Turtle with certain data or request the deletion of certain data, which may impact essential operations of the Service and/or the Website. In most cases, Mirth Turtle is not the personal data controller and only acts as a data processor. In cases where Mirth Turtle is the data processor and not the controller, please contact your data controller prior to contacting Mirth Turtle, in order to exercise any of your personal data rights.
The following is a description of the personal data that we may access, collect, use and process in connection with the operation of the Service:
Mirth Turtle may also collect anonymous data that does not identify you, including but not limited to responses to anonymous surveys and feedback requests, metrics and other types of statistical data, which could be derived from your use of the Service and analytical data concerning the Service. Mirth Turtle may also aggregate, anonymize and/or de-identify the personal data it collects. We have implemented commercially reasonable security measures to properly encrypt, anonymize and/or de-identify such data. Mirth Turtle does not attempt to re-identify any previously anonymized or de-identified data.
We process personal data for our legitimate business purposes. These uses include but are not limited to:
We may disclose personal data to our parent companies, affiliates, subsidiaries, employees and contractors for the same purposes described above.
This Privacy Policy only applies to personal data that Mirth Turtle accesses, collects, processes and discloses and does not apply to the access, collection, processing and disclosure of data by third parties through third-party services, including PayPal, Streamlabs, Twitch, YouTube, Discord, Twitter (X), Bluesky, SendGrid, GoatCounter, OGS, Steam, and Itch.io, which may be broader than set forth in this Privacy Policy, and that may be embedded into the Service. In many cases, third parties may collect personal data about online activities over time and across different websites and services. We strongly recommend that each User reads each third-party privacy policy carefully before using the Service. Please contact us directly using the information found below to learn more about third-party data practices.
The Service uses tracking technologies, such as cookies, web beacons and Google Analytics, to collect personal data, such as IP addresses and device information. Based on this data, third-parties may be able to resolve identities across multiple devices. This data is collected, used and disclosed in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable third-party privacy policies. Certain Service features may rely on tracking technologies and by declining to accept cookies or by changing certain settings on a device, these features may stop working. You have the right to opt-in and opt-out of certain cookies that are not necessary for the operations of the Service, including but not limited to third-party cookies, and may do so by contacting Mirth Turtle using the information below.

and may do so by requesting deletion by contacting us using the contact information found below. In the event you are not satisfied with Mirth Turtle’s response to your exercise of a privacy right, you may submit an appeal to Mirth Turtle for further information concerning our decision or to seek re-consideration of your request.
While Mirth Turtle is a Canadian company, the personal data provided through the Service may be stored and processed by third parties in countries around the world. You authorize Mirth Turtle and third parties acting on our behalf to process personal data in any country of their choosing, which may cause the data that we access, including personal data, to be subject to privacy protections and legal rights that may not be equivalent to those in your country.
Personal data that is retained by Mirth Turtle is only retained until you request its deletion, until Mirth Turtle no longer requires such data for the purpose for which it was collected, or as long as is legally necessary. Mirth Turtle may aggregate, anonymize and/or de-identify personal data, and retain such de-identified data for purposes and time periods permitted by applicable law.
Mirth Turtle complies with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act and other applicable laws and regulations concerning children and the Internet. The Service and Website are not directed to children under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly solicit or collect any personal data from children under the age of 13. If Mirth Turtle is made aware of the fact that Mirth Turtle may have inadvertently collected data from children under the age of 13, it will promptly take measures to delete the data from our records. If you are the parent or guardian of a child who you believe may have provided Mirth Turtle with personal data without your consent, please contact us using the information below.
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a web or device setting that allows you to request that receivers of personal data stop their tracking activities. When you choose to turn on the DNT setting in your browser or device or use alternative consumer choice mechanisms, your browser or device sends a special signal to websites, analytics companies, advertising networks, plug-in providers and other web services you encounter to stop tracking your activity. Currently, there are no DNT technology standards and, as a result, we do not respond to DNT requests.
If you are a California resident, California Civil Code 1798.83 grants you the right to request disclosure of the categories of personal data we control and provide to third parties, and the names and addresses of these third parties, for direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make this request, please contact us using the contact information set forth below.
Please note that you may only make this request once per year.
If you are a California resident, California Civil Code Section 1798.120 permits you to opt-out of the sale and sharing of your personal data to third parties. Currently, Mirth Turtle does not sell or share your personal data to third parties except as directly requested by Users via consent and as such no opt-out of the sale or sharing of such personal data is necessary. Although Mirth Turtle does not sell or share your personal data to third parties without consent, Mirth Turtle does provide a general opt-out right to all of our users. If you have any other questions about our privacy practices, please email us at Christian [at] MirthTurtle.com.
In the event of, or in preparation for, a change of ownership or control of Mirth Turtle or a business transition such as the sale of some or all Mirth Turtle’s assets, we may disclose and/or transfer your personal and anonymous data to third-parties who will have the right to continue to collect and use such data in the manner set forth in this Privacy Policy.
We are committed to ensuring that your data is secure. To prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, or breach, we have put in place suitable and commercially reasonable physical, electronic, and administrative procedures to safeguard and secure the data we collect and process, including appropriate protections for any sensitive personal data we access, process or collect. Despite Mirth Turtle’s efforts to adequately protect your personal data, no electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be fully secure. As a result, our security measures may be compromised by hackers, cybercriminals and other unauthorized third parties attempting to improperly collect, access, steal and/or modify your information. You acknowledge and agree that the transmission of personal data to and from the Service is at your own risk and that you should only access the Service from a secure environment.
We will communicate with you through the Website, your email address, Service account and/or phone, to respond to support requests or comments. If you have provided us with your email address and would like to change the email preferences we associate with you (for example, unsubscribing from receiving certain types of email) you may do so by clicking a link within certain types of emails that we send to you or, if no link is available, by replying with “unsubscribe” in the email title or body. On rare occasions, some types of email are necessary for the Service and cannot be unsubscribed from if you continue to use the Service.
Mirth Turtle reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify this Privacy Policy at any time (each an “Update”) and shall make each Update available on the Website. You are deemed to accept an Update by continuing to use the Service. Unless Mirth Turtle states otherwise, an Update is automatically effective 30 days after posting on the Website, except where an Update is immaterial to any of your legal rights or legal obligations of Mirth Turtle and such Update is made only to correct a typographical, formatting or grammar inaccuracy, and in such case, an Update is effective immediately after posting on the Website.
