We do not sell your personal information, share it for cross-context behavioural advertising, or use it to train third-party AI models.
How information is shared
- With other users, as you direct: campaign members can see the characters and campaign content you share with them, and anything you publish to a marketplace is visible to other users along with your username.
- With service providers: companies that host and operate the Services for us, such as cloud hosting, database, identity, email, text message and push notification providers. They may use the information only to provide services to us.
- For legal reasons: when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, or to protect the rights, safety or property of our users, the public or Meridian Labs.
- In a business transfer: if we are involved in a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, in which case we will notify you before your information becomes subject to a different policy.
Text messages
Text notifications are off by default and are sent only if you enable them, enter your own number and agree to receive them. Message frequency depends on your notification settings, and message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. We do not share your phone number or consent data with third parties for their marketing purposes.
Retention
We keep your account information and content for as long as your account is active. When you delete content or your account, we remove it from active systems, and it is purged from backups as they expire. We may keep limited records longer where the law requires it or to resolve disputes.
Your choices and rights
- You can view and update most of your information, and turn each notification channel on or off, in your account settings.
- You can ask us for a copy of your personal information, or to correct or delete it, by emailing info@firstmeridianlabs.com. We will verify the request comes from the account holder and respond within the time the law requires.
- Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under local privacy laws. We will honour them.
Security
Data is encrypted in transit and stored with reputable cloud providers that encrypt data at rest. Access is limited to the people who need it to run the Services. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.
Children
The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child under 13 has given us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
