Privacy Policy
Dated 11/06/20
We (OpenLX SP Ltd through the quizit.net Website) collect your data to allow us to
operate the Website and/or provide services to you. We take your privacy and security seriously. By
using the Website, registering for an account, and/or taking out a subscription you are accepting and
consenting to the collection, use, disclosure and processing as detailed below.
Please read the policy carefully and check you understand it before accepting it. Our
contact details can be found below.
The type of personal information we collect, how we get it and
why we have it
We collect information when you register for a subscription or use the Website. When
you register or login we collect username, email address and password so we can provide you with an account.
At registration we also collect your name. To take payment we use Stripe Inc. You can view their terms and
privacy here https://stripe.com/gb/privacy. We do not collect or hold any card payment details ourselves.
Stripe Inc. informs us when they attempt to take payment and the outcome.
When you host a quiz we record the progress of the quiz so you can return to it at a
later stage and so we can associate players' answers with a particular question. As a player we record
your chosen player name (which can be a pseudonym), your answers to each question and the time taken to
answer. From player answers we will compute a score to be displayed in the score table.
Like many site operators, we collect information that your browser sends whenever you
visit our Website ("Log Data").
This Log Data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol
("IP") address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Website that you visit, the time
and date of your visit. We use the Log Data to monitor, analyse and improve the performance of the
Website.

processing this information are:
We have a contractual obligation
We use your data to provide you with the Services (including creating and maintaining
an account, and providing the appropriate features based on your subscription status).
We use your data to be able to provide you with notifications and service messages,
e.g. to inform you of changes to your subscription plan/terms etc.
When you join a plan with a subscription fee we will direct you to provide payment
details with Stripe Inc. and we will associate your account with the Stripe customer reference id Stripe
Inc. provides so we can manage your subscription.
We have a legal obligation or a legitimate interest
We use your data to ensure compliance with the Terms, to monitor the performance of
the Website and to prevent, detect and investigate fraud, misuse of the Website, or other potentially
illegal activities (including copyright infringement).
We need to be able to confirm your identity to protect your data and be confident it
is really you communicating with us.
Your consent
Where we don’t have a contractual or legal obligation or legitimate interest we
use your data with your consent.
How we store your personal information
Your information is securely stored on our servers in the UK.
Our Log Data is automatically rotated. We keep game data

player data for a quiz. We store account information after you close your account for a period necessary for
administration and financial record keeping.

complete information you think is incomplete.
