5. Cookies and similar technologies

Both we and our third-party tracking partners use browser storage, app storage, cookies and similar technologies like pixels, beacons, scripts and tags to operate our websites and apps, and provided you have given consent, where required, we use these to analyze your use and market products and services to you.

Cookies are small data files that your browser sets on your computer or device. A cookie itself does not contain or collect information. However, when it is read by a server via a web browser or similar, it can help a website deliver a more user-friendly service – for example, remembering previous purchases or account details.

An example of another technology similar to cookies is a pixel. A pixel is a small piece of code that is embedded in an email or on a website. Pixels are used to track user behavior, such as whether an email was opened or a link was clicked. They work by loading a tiny image that sends a signal back to the server when it is loaded. This signal can be used to track user activity and provide analytics data to the website or email sender.

When we use cookies and similar technologies we collect information about among others your IP-address, browser type, device, operative system, how you use our websites, what pages you visited prior to landing on our websites or where you traveled after visiting our website and whether you read our emails or other direct messages channels.

We only use your data to the extent you have given us your consent, where required, to use the data. 

If you do not give your consent to certain cookies, please note that some parts of our website or apps may become inaccessible or not function properly.

We use various types of cookies which can be categorized into four different categories:

Necessary Cookies: Necessary cookies help make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. Further, necessary cookies keep you logged in, provide security and fraud prevention, hold your digital shopping bag stored while you browse and remember volume settings and more. The website cannot function properly without these cookies. This category of cookies cannot be disabled and does not require a consent.

Statistical Cookies: Statistical cookies collect data for statistical purposes only, such as analyzing and reporting visitor interactions with a website.

Preference Cookies: Preference cookies are used to enable a website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, like your preferred language. 

Marketing Cookies: We use both first-party (GN) cookies and third-party cookies. 

The first-party cookies are used to learn more about your interest, including which sites and adds you click on, which products and services you are interested in, or purchase, on our websites or apps. We use this data to show you more personal marketing and product recommendations on our websites or in our apps, in our membership and program offerings and to make the content of any marketing messages we send you more relevant based on your interest and site behavior.

Third-party cookies allow third parties to collect cookies allowing us to make targeted marketing/ads of our products and services on other websites, apps and on social media. The third parties will set cookies tracking your interests and behavior including which products and services you are interested in, or purchase, on this and other websites, social media, apps and devices. Be aware that these third parties are either joint or independent data controllers of the personal data tracked via the cookies and they will also use the data for their own purposes.

You can read more about our use of cookies, including which specific cookies we use, the relevant privacy policies of third-parties and more in our cookie policy which is available on the relevant website or in the app you are using.  

Necessary cookies are essential for the website, and you cannot opt out of them, but you can delete necessary cookies after use – see how below.

For all other cookies, you can adjust your settings and revoke your consent.

However, cookies are placed on your device. This means that we cannot delete any cookies already placed. You must do that yourself in the way prescribed by your specific device. If you are on a website operated by us, you can also avoid cookies being placed by adjusting the browser settings on your device. If you use an app published by us, please note that cookies set in an app work in a different way and you will have to control this via your device directly. Browser cookies are set to expire. Similar types of technologies like local storage on your device, do not have expiration built-in but must be deleted by you. We have linked to instructions on how to adjust/delete cookies on some of the more common devices below.

Please find examples of guides on how to block cookies and how to remove cookies in the various browsers for PCs and Macs:

Internet Explorer

7. Legal basis

 

Applicable personal data legislation may require us to outline the legal basis on which we collect and use your personal data. This is for example a requirement under the EU General Data Protection Regulation and similar national legislation.

Below we have outlined the legal basis we rely on to collect and use your data. We have also identified what our legitimate interests are where appropriate. Note that we may process your personal data for more than one lawful ground depending on the specific purpose for which we use your data.  

We will use your personal data based on the following legal bases:

 

• where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests, we base our use on our legitimate interest;
• where the information is needed to perform a contract, we are about to enter into or have entered into, we rely on the performance of the contract as a legal basis; 
• where the information is needed to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation, we rely on this as a legal basis; 
• where your consent is required as a legal basis for processing your personal data, we strictly use your data based on your consent;
• Where it is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

 

When we rely on our legitimate interest, we do this to:   

• manage our relationship with you and comply with any obligations towards you and/or third parties;
• study how e.g. customers purchase, return, use or react to our products/services in order to provide you with better products and services;
• run our business and ensure provision of administration and IT services and hereby provide you with the products and services you have purchased, and to provide effective service and support to you;
• ensure your safety when using our products and services and visiting our websites;

To the extent use of your personal data is governed by national regulation requiring explicit or deemed consent for the use described in an applicable privacy policy we only do this based on your consent. Consent may be required when we for example

 

• send you newsletters;
• use cookies, pixels or similar technologies; or
• transfer your data to a third-party or affiliate inside or outside your country;

 

We will only use and transfer your personal data when applicable law allows us to.

8. Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, such as accounting, tax or other reporting requirements.

 

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the nature, the sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

 

Details of retention periods for different aspects of your personal data are available upon request.

Please use the contact information outlined in section 1 above.

 

9. Your rights concerning the processing of your personal data

You have a number of rights in relation to the personal data that we hold about you and you can exercise your rights by contacting us using the details set out below.

These rights include:

• Obtaining information regarding the processing of your personal data and access to the personal data which we hold about you. Please note that there may be circumstances in which we are entitled to refuse requests for access to copies of personal data, among others for the sake of another person’s right to privacy.
• Requesting that we correct your personal data if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
• Requesting that we erase your personal data in certain circumstances. Please note that there may be circumstances where you ask us to erase your personal data, but we are legally entitled or obligated to retain it. A user can actively delete dersonal data that is connected to his or her user profile by deleting this profile on some websites.
• Objecting to, and requesting that we restrict, our processing of your personal data in certain circumstances. Again, there may be circumstances where you object to, or ask us to restrict, our processing of your personal data but we are legally entitled to refuse that request.
• In some circumstances, receiving some personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and/or requesting that we transmit that information to a third party where this is technically feasible. Please note that this right only applies to personal data which you have provided to us.
• Withdrawing your consent, although in certain circumstances it may be lawful for us to continue processing without your consent if we have another legitimate reason (other than consent) for doing so.

Users can also opt-out of having us use their data to personalize anyservices. Our users have access to download our GG Desktop Application, which provides direct access to some of our services. In the settings menu of the GG Desktop Application, users may opt out of having us use their data to personalize the services. This does not stop our automatic collection of data when users access our services, however it breaks the association to your SteelSeries account and thus makes the data collected completely anonymous. By turning off this feature you will lose access to personalized content within our websites and services, alerts about new product announcements, and access to software betas and early access.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

 

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month and shorter where required.  Occasionally, it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

Please be aware that you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Danish Data Protection Agency and with your national data protection authority or other public authority governing the protection of your personal data comprised by this privacy policy. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the relevant data protection authority or other public authority, so please contact us in the first instance.

The contact information of the Danish Data Protection Agency is dt@datatilsynet.dk, www.datatilsynet.dk, telephone +45 33193200.

 

10. Unsubscribe to marketing communication

 

We provide you with the opportunity to unsubscribe to communications from us if you receive newsletters etc. via e-mail, text (SMS) or other direct message channels. At the end of each message, instructions on how to unsubscribe and be removed from the mailing list are included.

 

11. International transfers

 

In some cases, we will transfer personal data to recipients which may be located in countries outside of your jurisdiction. Such transfers will be conducted in strict accordance with applicable laws, and where required we will provide appropriate safeguards for such transfers.

When transferring personal data out of the European Union or other jurisdictions requiring similar appropriate safeguards, we will use either the standard contractual clauses as approved by the European Commission or equivalent national bodies, or any other contractual agreement approved by the competent authorities as a basis for the transfer and where necessary, implement additional supplementary safeguards to ensure an adequate level of protection.

Your personal data will be stored in your jurisdiction if the applicable law requires so.

Please contact us by using the contact details in section 1 above, if you would like further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the European Union and/or other jurisdictions requiring appropriate safeguards.

12. SECURITY

Personal data is used and stored in accordance with applicable data protection legislation. We take steps to ensure that the information we process is dealt with in accordance with this privacy notice and in accordance with applicable laws.

When required or appropriate, we shall obtain written assurances from third parties that may access your data that they will protect the data with equivalent safeguards to those adopted by GN.

To protect the privacy of your information we maintain both appropriate technical and organizational safeguards, and we regularly update and test our security measures.

13. What happens if you fail to provide us with the required data?

Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you or your company and you fail to provide us with the data when requested, or choose to withdraw a former given consent, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with goods or services). In this case, we may have to cancel a product or service you or your organization have with us; but we will duly notify you about this if relevant. 

14. Third-party links

Our websites may include links to third-party websites. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you.
