1. Who We Are (Data Controller)

The data controller responsible for your personal data is:

9GG LLC
30 N Gould St, Ste R
Sheridan, WY 82801, USA
Email: [email protected]

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you may contact us using the details above regarding any matter relating to the processing of your personal data.

2. What Data We Collect

2.1 Account & Contact-Form Data You Provide

• Account information: name, email address, password, and any profile details you choose to provide when you register for a product.
• Contact-form data: your name, email address, subject, and message content when you contact us through our contact form or by email.
• Communications: records of your correspondence with our support team.

2.2 Server Logs & Technical Data (Collected Automatically)

• Server logs: IP address, date and time of requests, pages or files requested, HTTP status codes, referring URL, and browser/user-agent string. These are recorded by our web server for security, diagnostics, and abuse prevention.
• Device & usage data: browser type, operating system, and approximate location derived from IP address.

2.3 Cookies & Similar Technologies

We use a small number of essential cookies that are necessary for the site to function, and (only with your consent) analytics cookies. For full details, please see our Cookie Policy.

3. Legal Bases for Processing

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)): for analytics cookies and any optional marketing communications. You may withdraw consent at any time.
• Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)): to create and operate your account and provide the services you request.
• Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)): to comply with applicable laws, tax, and record-keeping requirements.
• Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)): to secure our systems, prevent fraud and abuse, maintain server logs, and respond to your enquiries. We balance these interests against your rights and freedoms.

4. How We Use Your Data

• Provide, maintain, secure, and improve our websites and products.
• Create and manage accounts and process the requests you make.
• Respond to contact-form messages and support enquiries.
• Monitor, detect, and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents.
• Understand aggregate usage trends (only where analytics consent is given).
• Comply with our legal obligations and enforce our terms.

We do not sell your personal information.

5. Third-Party Processors & Recipients

We share personal data only with service providers ("processors") who process it on our behalf under appropriate contractual safeguards, and only as needed to operate our services. These may include:

• Hosting and infrastructure providers that store our data and serve our websites.
• Email and communications providers used to deliver and respond to your messages.
• Analytics providers — specifically Google Analytics, where you have consented (see below).

We may also disclose data where required by law, to protect our rights and the safety of others, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

6. Google Analytics & Cookies

We may use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to understand how visitors use our site in aggregate. Google Analytics sets cookies (such as _ga, _gid, and _gat) to distinguish users and throttle request rates.

Analytics is consent-gated: these cookies and the associated data collection load only after you give consent. If you decline or withdraw consent, Google Analytics is not loaded and no analytics cookies are set. You can change your choice at any time — see our Cookie Policy.

To learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see Google's Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can also install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

7. International Data Transfers

9GG LLC is based in the United States, and our processors may store or process data in the United States and other countries. Where we transfer personal data out of the EEA or the UK, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum), or transfers to recipients certified under an applicable adequacy framework. You may request a copy of the relevant safeguards by contacting [email protected].

8. Data Retention

• Account data: retained for as long as your account is active, and then deleted or anonymized within a reasonable period unless we must keep it to meet legal obligations.
• Contact-form messages: retained for up to 24 months to handle follow-up enquiries, then deleted.
• Server logs: retained for a short period (typically up to 90 days) for security and diagnostics, then rotated and deleted.
• Analytics data: retained according to the retention period configured in Google Analytics.
