These terms apply to the use of products and services developed by Zenos Interactive Limited (“Zenos” / ‘we’ / ‘us’). Our registered office is at 71-75 Shelton Street, London, Greater London, United Kingdom, WC2H 9JQ. We are a company registered in England, with company number 12603895.
We are a developer and provider of Zenos Stadium, a virtual Esports Stadium (the “Stadium”). The Stadium offers professional esports organizers, teams or individual creators (together, “Hosts”) the ability to host a virtual stadium and run virtual esports events. Registered users of the Stadium (“Users”) can then experience the esports events in virtual reality. We also operate the website: https://www.Zenosstadium.com/ and various other domains that lead to the same site (the “Website” and together with the Stadium, Zenos’s “Online Services”). This privacy notice (“Privacy Notice”) describes how we will process your personal data when you use the Online Services.
If you have any questions or comments about this Privacy Notice, please contact us at info@Zenosstadium.com
We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. We seek to limit the personal data we handle to only that which is necessary to provide our Online Services and support our Hosts, Users and Website visitors.
This Privacy Notice explains the basis on which personal information we collect from you will be processed by us or on our behalf. Where we decide the purpose or means for which personal data you supply through the Online Services is processed, we are the “data controller.” We will comply with all applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 and the UK GDPR.
Please read this Privacy Notice carefully as it contains important information about the following:
The Stadium is made available to Users through third party application and/or games stores including, without limitation, Steam, Oculus and Epic Games (each a “Store”) and the Stadium makes use of their cloud saving and achievements functionality. That means you need a Store account to use the Stadium. Each Store acts as an independent controller of your personal data, and your use of each Store is subject to the terms of use and privacy policy applicable to that Store (as may change from time to time).
In addition to the Stores, the Online Services may contain hyperlinks to services owned and operated by third parties. These third party services may have their own privacy policies and we recommend that you review them. They will govern the use of personal information that you submit, or which is collected by cookies and other tracking technologies whilst using these services. We do not accept any responsibility or liability for the privacy practices of such third party services or the Stores and your use of these is at your own risk.
We may make changes to this Privacy Notice in future, which will be posted on this page. Where appropriate we will notify you of changes through your Stadium account.
