1. Data Controller & Contact
The organization responsible for personal information processed through nickelcityspins.com is Nickel City Assay & Geodetic Archive Inc. (NEQ 1179482634 (Québec Enterprise Register)), located at 580 Grande Allée Est, Quebec City, QC G1R 2K2, Canada.
Our designated Privacy Officer can be reached directly at privacy@nickelcityspins.com or by telephone at +1 902 555 0156.
2. Information We Collect
Because Nickel City Spins is a zero-monetisation recreational archive, we never collect banking details, payment card numbers, or financial records. We process only:
- Account Registry Data: Email address, chosen Screen Name, bcrypt-hashed password, and Date of Birth (used solely to verify 19+ eligibility and authenticate password resets).
- Conservatory Preferences: Selected lighting scene, session reminder interval, Account Break timestamps, and fictional Play Credit ledger entries.
- Support Correspondence: Name, email address, topic, and message content submitted via our Support Dispatch form.
3. Lawful Principles for Processing
We process personal information in strict adherence to the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and Québec’s Law 25:
- Age Verification & Service Delivery
- Processing your registration details is necessary to enforce our 19+ charter and maintain your account ledger.
- Explicit Consent for Telemetry
- Optional analytics telemetry remains strictly disabled (`denied`) unless you provide affirmative consent via Google Consent Mode v2.
4. Data Retention & Storage Security
All passwords are hashed using adaptive one-way `password_hash()` algorithms before storage in access-restricted server files protected by atomic file locks (`flock`). Account records are retained only while your profile remains active or until you request erasure.
5. Your Statutory Rights
Under PIPEDA and Québec Law 25, you have the right to request access to your personal information, rectify inaccurate records, withdraw optional analytics consent at any time, and request complete deletion of your curator profile.
You also hold the statutory right to lodge a privacy inquiry with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) or the Commission d’accès à l’information du Québec (CAI).
6. Third-Party Data Sharing
Nickel City Assay & Geodetic Archive Inc. never sells, rents, or trades curator email addresses or profile data to third-party marketers or data brokers. When you launch an interactive practice iframe, the game studio’s demo server receives standard HTTP request headers solely to render the simulation canvas.
