Privacy Policy
ugnd.wrld is built with privacy as a core principle. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information and how we comply with applicable privacy regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA).
1. Data Collection & Use
ugnd.wrld does not passively track, profile, or harvest personal data. We do not collect any personal information from visitors except where voluntarily provided, as described below.
We do not use first-party cookies, analytics tools, tracking pixels, fingerprinting, behavioral profiling, advertising trackers, or data harvesting technologies of our own.
We do not collect names, IP addresses, device identifiers, precise location data, or usage behavior.
Email Collection via Kit.com: ugnd.wrld uses Kit.com (kit.com) to collect email addresses through opt-in forms attached to event pages and link trees. Email addresses submitted through these forms are added to a ugnd.wrld mailing list and processed by Kit.com on our behalf. This is the only personal data collected by ugnd.wrld. Submission is always voluntary.
Third-Party Embedded Content: ugnd.wrld embeds media content from third-party platforms including, but not limited to, YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Twitch, SoundCloud, and Internet Archive. When you interact with embedded content, these third-party services may set cookies, collect data, and track your activity according to their own privacy policies. This data collection is performed by the third-party platforms, not by ugnd.wrld. See Section 5 for more information.
2. Legal Basis (GDPR)
Under GDPR Article 6, a lawful basis is required when personal data is processed. For email addresses collected through opt-in forms, ugnd.wrld relies on consent (Article 6(1)(a)) as the lawful basis for processing. Users voluntarily submit their email address and may withdraw consent at any time by unsubscribing via any ugnd.wrld email or by contacting us directly.
For embedded third-party content that may process personal data, the respective third-party platforms act as independent data controllers and are responsible for establishing their own lawful bases for processing.
3. User Rights (GDPR & CCPA/CPRA)
Privacy laws grant users rights regarding personal data, including the right to access, correct, delete, restrict processing, request portability, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.
ugnd.wrld collects only email addresses, submitted voluntarily through opt-in forms. You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your email address at any time by contacting us through the information provided on this website, or by unsubscribing directly from any ugnd.wrld mailing list communication.
For data collected by third-party embedded content providers, users must exercise their rights directly with those providers. See Section 5 for links to third-party privacy policies.
4. Data Sharing & Sale
ugnd.wrld does not sell, rent, or disclose personal data to third parties for their own use or for monetary consideration. Email addresses collected through opt-in forms are transmitted to Kit.com solely in its capacity as a data processor acting on ugnd.wrld's behalf for mailing list management. This transmission is governed by Kit.com's data processing terms and does not constitute a sale or unauthorized disclosure of personal data.
5. Third-Party Content, Links & Embedded Media
External Links: ugnd.wrld may contain links to external websites for reference or convenience. These third-party sites operate independently and are governed by their own privacy policies and practices. ugnd.wrld is not responsible for their content or data handling.
Embedded Media Content: ugnd.wrld displays video, audio, and media content embedded from third-party platforms. When embedded content loads or is played, your browser connects directly to the third-party platform's servers. These platforms may:
- Set cookies on your device
- Collect IP addresses and device information
- Track viewing and listening behavior and preferences
- Use data for advertising and analytics purposes
- Process data according to their own privacy policies
