  • Engage with us (or our Partners) in other related ways, including any sales, marketing, or events or participate in the Activate Global League (“AGL”) or Activate Tournament of Champions (“TOC”).

This privacy notice does not describe our Partners’ collection, storage, usage or sharing of your information where Activate is not involved. This includes our Partners’ management of their own booking systems, or their management of HR and applicant data, for example. Please refer to the relevant Partner’s privacy notice available on their country-specific website, or any other privacy notice provided to you by the Partner in the context of these activities.

References to “information” or “personal information” in this notice also cover the term “personal data”, as it is understood under applicable data protection laws.

This privacy notice is issued in English language and translated into respective local languages where applicable local data protection law requires.

Who is the controller?

If you are located in the EEA, UAE, UK, or Switzerland, or any other country with equivalent or similar data protection laws, Activate is the controller of your personal information.

In some scenarios, Activate and its relevant Partner are “joint controllers”, which means both Activate and the Partner are responsible for determining how and why we process and use your personal information. As explained below, this is the case in respect of certain marketing and online advertising activities, and the handling of complaints or accident reporting when you visit one of our Partners’ Sites. For these activities, the relevant Partner will be your primary point of contact for any requests, questions or concerns and you can find their contact information in their privacy notice available on their country-specific website or in Appendix A herein.

For all other processing described in this notice, Activate acts as an “independent controller”.

Questions or concerns? Reading this privacy notice will help you understand your privacy rights and choices. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our Services.

Like many businesses, we also process information through cookies and similar technologies.

The information we process includes:

  • Log and Usage Data. Log and usage data is service-related, diagnostic, usage, and performance information our servers automatically process when you access or use our Services and which we record in log files. Depending on how you interact with us, this log data may include your IP address, device information, browser type, and settings and information about your activity in the Services (such as the date/time stamps associated with your usage, pages and files viewed, searches, and other actions you take such as which features you use), device event information (such as system activity, error reports (sometimes called “crash dumps”), and hardware settings).

  • Location Data. We process location data such as information about your device's location, which can be either precise or imprecise. How much information we process depends on the type and settings of the device you use to access the Services. For example, we may use GPS and other technologies to process geolocation data that tells us your current location (based on your IP address)), if you have upfront provided your consent to do so. You can withdraw your consent in the collection of this information either by refusing access to the information or by disabling your Location setting on your device at any time. However, if you choose to opt out, you may not be able to use certain aspects of the Services.

This information includes mailing addresses, job titles, email addresses, phone numbers, intent data (or user behavior data), Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, social media profiles, social media URLs, and custom profiles, for purposes of targeted advertising and event promotion.

If you make an Activate account at one of our Partner’s Sites or on one of our Partner’s websites, we will receive information such as your name, phone number, email address, postal code, and preferences (and, if relevant, those of your parent or guardian), and we may share some of this information back with our Partners. We may also combine your account information with a record of any bookings you have made on our Partner’s booking system (but we will not receive your payment information).

If you are a staff member of one of our Partners and have made an admin account at one of our Partner’s Sites (for example, to log into our software and systems), we will process your name and email address to administer our Services.

We may also process your information for other purposes with your consent. For more information about our purposes of processing, including what categories of personal data we use for these purposes, see Appendix B. Note, where we process personal data to administer our contract with you or to comply with our legal obligations, this is mandatory, and we will not be able to provide our Services without this information. In other cases, provision of the requested personal data is optional, and based on your consent, but without consent this may affect your ability to procure or access certain functionalities or Services where the information is needed for those purposes.

Joint Controllership

In some (but not all) scenarios we act as joint controllers with the Partner at whose Site or website you set up an account or where you played our games. We do this for direct marketing and online targeting purposes. In particular, we may share your personal information obtained from those locations back with our Partners to facilitate their direct marketing and online targeting campaigns relating to the Services.

We are also joint controllers when we handle complaints made by players (or their parents or guardians) and accident reporting from one of our Partner’s Sites, which has been notified to us by our Partners.

Note this does not apply to processing done by our Partners as independent controller, for instance the management by our Partner of their booking system, HR data, and other on-site processing not covered above.

For requests, questions or concerns related to the joint control activities, the relevant Partner will be responsible for this and the main point of contact. Please refer to the Partner’s privacy notice, accessible https://playactivate.com/privacy-policy.

These advertisements may appear within our Services, on social media platforms, or through other digital advertising networks.

In connection with these activities, we may disclose limited personal information about our existing customers, such as email addresses and phone numbers, to our advertising service providers for audience-matching purposes. Before disclosure, this information is pseudonymized using industry-standard SHA-256 hashing, which converts identifiers into non-reversible hash values prior to transmission.

We may use this information to: (i) create custom audiences so that advertisements for certain Services may be shown to existing customers; (ii) suppress or exclude existing customers or other individuals from particular advertising campaigns; and (iii) create "lookalike," "similar," or other modeled audiences by enabling advertising service providers to identify individuals who may share characteristics, interests, preferences, or behaviours similar to those of our existing customers and deliver advertisements to those individuals.

We use Braze, Inc. as our customer relationship management and marketing automation platform, which facilitates the secure transfer of hashed customer information to advertising platforms on our behalf as a service provider. Where Meta is used for audience matching, Meta is contractually restricted from using the data we provide for any purpose other than the audience-matching process and from sharing that data with third parties or other advertisers. Meta deletes the customer list data after the matching process is complete; however, the resulting matched audience may remain available until we delete it.

We may, in our discretion, exclude certain individuals from the targeted advertising activities described above. You may withdraw your consent to the use of your personal information for targeted advertising purposes. Please see the "What Are Your Privacy Rights?" section below for more information on how to exercise your rights.

COOKIE POLICY

Last updated July 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Activate ("Company", "we", "us", and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://playactivate.com ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

This Cookie Policy is issued in English language and translated into respective local languages where applicable local data protection law requires. Alll language versions are accurate and equally authoritative.

We may use and disclose information processed via cookies and similar technologies for the purpose set out in Schedule B, except where we are required to do otherwise under applicable law. If we are required to treat the information as personal information under applicable law, we may use and disclose it for the purposes for which we use and disclose personal information, as detailed in our Privacy Policy. In some instances, we may combine information processed via cookies and similar technologies with personal information. If we do, we will treat the combined information as personal information so long as it is combined.

What Are Cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that our Website saves onto your computer or device when you use the Website that provides us certain information about your activities. Cookies allow the Site to remember your actions and preferences and recognize you or your browser. Web beacons / pixel tags are small graphics on a webpage that monitor your activity when viewing a webpage.

We use cookies to:

  • tailor our interactions with you;
  • help with our marketing efforts;
  • provide us with valuable data and statistics about the usage and effectiveness of our Website and to help us improve our Website; and
  • help us improve our services.

The cookies and similar technologies on our Website may collect information such as:

  • the websites you access before and after visiting the Website, and
  • data related to how and when you use the Website.

We may combine information from cookies with Personal Information, including data obtained from other sources.

A cookie can either be a “session” cookie or a “persistent” cookie. Session cookies exist only for so long as you are visiting the applicable Website and are typically deleted when you exit your web browser. Persistent cookies exist for a set period of time, for example, up to several months or years. Each time you visit a website that has implemented a persistent cookie, the persistent cookie is renewed, and that cookie will remain active until its predetermined expiration date. You can manually delete persistent cookies through your browser settings.

First-party versus third-party cookies. Cookies may either be “first-party” or “third-party” cookies. A first-party cookie allows your web browser to talk to the actual Site that you are visiting (i.e. this Website). A third-party cookie allows your web browser to talk to a third-party website, such as the source of an ad that appears on the website you are visiting or a third-party analytics provider. We do not have control over how information gathered by third-party cookies is used by third parties.

Managing Cookies and Opting Out

Most browsers automatically accept cookies. You can disable this function by changing your browser settings, but disabling cookies may impact your use and enjoyment of the Website. Not all features or functions of the Website may work properly if you disable cookies. You cannot disable all cookies, such as cookies that are essential to the functioning of the Website.

Do Not Track. We do not currently employ a process for automatically responding to “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals sent by web browsers, mobile devices, or other mechanisms. Per industry standards, third parties may be able to collect information, including personal information, about your online activities over time and across different websites or online services when you use the Website.

Global Privacy Control. You can use the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) through a supported browser to signal certain of your opt-out preferences. You may opt-out of the processing of your Personal Information for purposes of targeted advertising or certain sales of your personal information by broadcasting the Global Privacy Control Signal through a supported browser. If you use the GPC, we will process your request for your browser, but it will not apply outside of that browser to your device. You will need to use the GPC for each browser you use to access the website If you clear your cookies in your browser after using the GPC, you will need to use the GPC again for us to process your opt out for that browser.

Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to collect and process information about your use of the Website. Google sets cookies on your browser or device, and then your web browser will automatically send information to Google. Google uses this information to provide us with reports that we use to better understand and measure how users interact with our Website.

To learn more about how Google uses data, visit Google’s Privacy Policy and Google’s page on “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps.” You may download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for each web browser you use, but this does not prevent the use of other analytics tools. To learn more about Google Analytics cookies, visit Google Analytics Cookie Usage on Websites.

Meta Pixel. Our Website may use the Meta Pixel (formerly Facebook Pixel), a tool provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. This technology helps us understand actions that visitors take on our Website after viewing or interacting with our ads on Facebook or Instagram, measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, and create audiences for future advertising. The information collected through the Meta Pixel may include your IP address, browser information, and information about your actions on our Website (such as pages visited) and may be linked by Meta to your Facebook or Instagram account if you have one. Meta uses this information in accordance with its own Data Policy. You can learn more about Meta's advertising and how to manage your preferences within your Facebook and Instagram account settings, or by visiting Meta’s Privacy Center. You may opt out of Meta's use of cookies and pixels by visiting Meta's Ad Settings.

Why Do We Use Cookies and Similar Technologies?

We use first- and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. The processing of essential/strictly necessary cookies is based on our legal obligations and/or our legitimate interests. Other cookies are "non-essential" and only processed based on your prior voluntary consent.

Non-essential cookies may enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website.

Cookies also allow us to collect such information as browser type, time spent on the Website, pages visited, language preferences, and traffic data. We use essetial cookies in this regardfor security purposes, to facilitate navigation and to display necessary information more effectively, as well as non-essential cookies to personalize your experience. We also gather statistical information about use of the Website in order to continually improve its design and functionality, understand how it is used, and assist us with resolving questions regarding the Website.

Non-essential cookies further allow us to select which of our advertisements or offers are most likely to appeal to you and display them while you are on the Website or reach out to you directly with personalized marketing communications. We may also use non-essential cookies or other technologies in online advertising to track responses to our ads.

Non-essential cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar non-essential technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs").

These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the Website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on non-essential cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

How Can I Control Cookies and Similar Technologies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies and similar technologies. You can exercise your choices by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of non-essential cookies and similar technologies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services. Other categories of cookies, such as marketing and analysis cookies, will only be used if you give your express consent.

The Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on our Website. In addition, most browsers allow you to automatically decline cookies or be given the choice of declining or accepting particular cookies from a particular website. You may also wish to refer to http://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/index.html. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website though your access to some functionality and areas of our Website may be restricted.

As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information. The following is information about how to manage cookies on the most popular browsers:

Chrome Firefox Safari on iPhone and iPad Safari on Mac Edge Opera Internet Explorer: Internet Explorer is no longer supported by Microsoft and is not recommended.

The specific types of first- and third-party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are described table below and in the Cookie Policy accessible via the Cookie Consent Manager.

If you are visiting one of our partner’s websites, the cookies placed on that website may be different. For details of the specific cookies placed on the relevant partner’s website, please see the Cookie Policy accessible via the Cookie Consent Manager on that website.
