Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 18, 2026
This policy explains how Do Not Monkey (“we”, “us”) handles information when you visit donotmonkey.org or contact us.
1. Who we are
Do Not Monkey is an independent game development studio. For privacy requests, contact us at contact@donotmonkey.org.
2. What we collect
- Contact form: If you use the form, we receive the email address and message you submit. Processing may be handled by our form provider (see “Processors” below).
- Email: If you email us directly, we receive your address and message content.
- Technical data: Like most websites, hosting and infrastructure may log basic data (for example IP address, browser type, date/time) for security and operations. Details depend on your hosting provider’s configuration.
3. Why we use it (legal bases)
- Contact requests: our legitimate interest in responding to you, and/or your consent when you submit the form or write to us.
- Security and service operation: legitimate interests in keeping the site secure and available.
4. Processors (third parties)
We may use service providers to operate the website and handle contact submissions. For example, if you use our contact form powered by Formspree, your submission is processed according to Formspree’s terms and privacy practices. We recommend reviewing their policy on their site.
External links (for example to YouTube) are governed by those platforms’ policies when you leave our site.
5. Retention
We keep messages only as long as needed to respond and handle follow-ups, unless a longer period is required by law.
6. Your rights (EEA / UK)
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, rectify, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise your rights, email contact@donotmonkey.org.
7. International transfers
If data is processed outside your country, we rely on appropriate safeguards where required (such as standard contractual clauses), depending on the providers we use.
8. Children
This site is not directed at children under 16. If you believe we received a child’s data, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date will change when we do.
