Such information is used primarily to ensure the operation and security of the websites and to analyze their performance.

4. Why we use personal data

Personal data may be processed for the following purposes.

4.1. Handling inquiries

In order to:

  • receive a request;
  • contact the user;
  • clarify requirements;
  • arrange a meeting or consultation;
  • answer a question;

  • preparing a commercial proposal;
  • preparing a technical specification;
  • concluding an agreement;
  • performing contractual obligations;
  • communication during the project;

  • delivering work results.

4.3. Operation of the search bar and knowledge base

If search is available on a website, the user’s query may be processed for:

  • searching for information;
  • identifying relevant materials;
  • generating suggestions;
  • improving search results;
  • analyzing the quality of the knowledge base.

5. Use of artificial intelligence

5.1. Use of AI

Gamechanger may use artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to perform certain tasks, including:

  • searching for information;
  • generating responses;
  • processing user queries;
  • text analysis;
  • classification of information;
  • summarization;
  • drafting;
  • technical analysis;
  • software development;
  • working with images;
  • document recognition;
  • business process automation;
  • improving the quality of services.

Depending on the specific task, different AI models and technology providers may be used.

5.2. Transfer of queries to AI services

To perform an AI function, the necessary query text or part of it may be technically transferred to a third-party AI service provider.

Gamechanger seeks to transfer only the amount of information necessary to perform the specific operation.

If the function does not require identification of the user, data may, where possible, be transferred without direct identifiers.

5.3. Use of different AI providers

Gamechanger may use different artificial intelligence technology providers depending on:

  • the nature of the task;
  • the quality of the model;
  • security requirements;
  • cost;
  • availability;
  • speed;
  • technical compatibility.

Connecting a particular AI service does not in itself mean that all information held by Gamechanger is transferred to it.

Only the information necessary to perform the relevant operation is transferred.

5.4. Confidential information in AI

The user should not enter the following into a public AI interface unless necessary:

  • passwords;
  • access keys;
  • API tokens;
  • banking details;
  • trade secrets;
  • third-party data;
  • personal data of employees or customers;
  • confidential documents;
  • restricted-access information.

Separate secure procedures and technical solutions may be applied to handle confidential information within a commercial project.

5.5. Limitations of AI

An output generated by artificial intelligence:

  • may contain inaccuracies;
  • may be incomplete;
  • may require review by a specialist;
  • does not automatically constitute a legal, financial, medical or other professional opinion.

The use of AI does not eliminate the need for human review of decisions where an error may lead to material consequences.

6. Analytics, cookies and technical services

The following may be used to operate and analyze Gamechanger websites:

  • web analytics systems;
  • tag management systems;
  • monitoring tools;
  • advertising tools;
  • error detection tools;
  • information security systems;
  • services protecting against automated requests.

In particular, certain websites may use:

  • Yandex Metrica;
  • Google Tag Manager;
  • other similar services.

The specific set of tools may vary between websites.

Such systems may receive technical information about website visits, including cookies, IP address and information about interaction with the page, within the functionality of the relevant service and Gamechanger’s settings.

The detailed procedure for the use of cookies is set out in a separate Cookie Policy.

7. Legal grounds for processing personal data

Gamechanger collects and processes personal data where there is a legal ground provided for by law.

Depending on the situation, such a ground may be:

  • the user’s consent;
  • the need to process an inquiry submitted by the user;
  • the conclusion or performance of an agreement;
  • the performance of an obligation imposed by law;
  • another ground provided for by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Where the law requires the user’s consent, such consent must be obtained before the relevant processing.

8. User consent

When submitting a form, the user must be able to review:

  • this Policy;
  • the terms of the consent to the collection and processing of personal data.

Where processing is based on consent, the fact that consent was given may be recorded by technical means.

In particular, the following may be stored:

  • date and time;
  • the website;
  • the form through which consent was given;
  • the version of the document;
  • technical information that makes it possible to confirm that consent was given.

The user’s consent to the processing of a request and consent to receive advertising messages serve different purposes and may be obtained separately.

9. Transfer to third parties

Gamechanger does not sell databases of users’ personal data.

Personal data may be transferred to third parties only where there is a legal ground and to the extent necessary for a specific purpose.

Such third parties may potentially include:

  • hosting providers;
  • data centers;
  • email service providers;
  • CRM systems;
  • telephony services;
  • messaging apps;
  • analytics services;
  • information security systems;
  • cloud services;
  • contractors directly involved in the performance of a project;
  • AI providers;
  • government authorities in cases provided for by law.

Gamechanger takes reasonable measures to limit the amount of information transferred.

10. Cross-border data transfer

Personal data under Gamechanger’s control is primarily stored in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

At the same time, the use of certain international technology services, including:

  • AI platforms;
  • analytics tools;
  • cloud services;
  • communication tools;
  • other international IT platforms

may technically involve the processing or transfer of certain information outside the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Cross-border transfer of personal data is carried out only where there is a ground provided for by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

If specific processing requires the user’s consent to the cross-border transfer of personal data, such consent must be obtained in the prescribed manner.

Gamechanger seeks to minimize the transfer of identifying and confidential information to external technology services.

11. Storage of personal data

Personal data that Gamechanger is required to store in electronic information resources is stored in a database located in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Data is stored for no longer than is necessary to achieve the purpose of its collection and processing, unless a longer period is:

  • provided for by law;
  • necessary for the performance of an agreement;
  • necessary for the performance of legal obligations;
  • determined by another legal ground.

Once the purposes of processing have been achieved, the data is subject to deletion, destruction, anonymization or cessation of processing in accordance with applicable requirements.

12. Data processing periods

The processing period depends on the purpose.

For example:

Project request
Data may be stored for the period necessary for communication, preparation of a proposal and a decision on cooperation.
Contractual relationship
Information may be stored during the term of the agreement and after its expiry to the extent and for the periods necessary to comply with legal requirements and to protect the rights of the parties.
Technical logs
May be stored for the period necessary to ensure information security, investigate errors and prevent abuse.
Marketing communications
Where separate consent has been given, until it is withdrawn or the relevant purpose is achieved.

13. Protection of personal data

Gamechanger applies legal, organizational and technical measures to protect personal data.

Depending on the system and the nature of the data, such measures may include:

  • access control;
  • identification and authentication of users with access to data;
  • use of secure connections;
  • management of employee permissions;
  • protection of server infrastructure;
  • backups;
  • event logging;
  • security monitoring;
  • software updates;
  • restriction of access to databases;
  • protection of credentials;
  • management of secrets and keys;
  • control of third-party integrations;
  • restriction of contractor access;
  • detection of suspicious activity;
  • incident response.

When selecting protective measures, the nature of the data, the purpose of the information system and potential risks are taken into account.

14. Personal data security breaches

If an information security incident is detected, Gamechanger takes the necessary measures to:

  • establish the nature of the incident;
  • contain unauthorized access;
  • prevent further dissemination of data;
  • preserve information required for the investigation;
  • eliminate the cause of the incident;
  • restore the secure operation of systems;
  • fulfill notification obligations in the cases and within the time limits provided for by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

15. Access by Gamechanger employees

Access to personal data is granted only to employees and other authorized persons who need such access to perform their job or contractual duties.

Access must not be granted on a “just in case” basis.

Gamechanger may restrict the permissions of users of internal systems depending on their position, role and functions.

16. User rights

To the extent provided for by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the user has the right to:

  • obtain information on whether the Operator holds their personal data;
  • obtain information about its processing;
  • request the correction of inaccurate or outdated data;
  • request the deletion or blocking of data where there are relevant grounds;
  • withdraw previously given consent in cases where such withdrawal is permitted by law;
  • obtain information on the transfer of data to third parties in cases provided for by law;
  • exercise rights relating to cross-border data transfer;
  • protect their rights and legitimate interests by the means provided for by law.

17. How to withdraw consent or submit a request

To exercise their rights, the user may contact Gamechanger LLP.

Phone
+7 700 221 4996
Mailing address
17/1 Zavodskaya St., Karaganda, Republic of Kazakhstan

The request should preferably include:

  • name;
  • contact details for a reply;
  • the substance of the request;
  • information that makes it possible to determine through which service the data was submitted.

To prevent access to another person’s data, Gamechanger may request reasonable confirmation that the request actually comes from the relevant data subject.

18. Advertising and informational messages

The user providing a phone number or email address to receive a reply to a request does not in itself constitute automatic consent to receive unlimited advertising mailings.

If Gamechanger uses separate marketing mailings, the relevant consent may be requested separately.

The user may opt out of marketing messages by the method indicated in the message or by contacting Gamechanger.

Service messages directly related to an inquiry or an existing agreement are not considered advertising mailings.

19. Links to third-party resources

Gamechanger websites may contain links to:

  • messaging apps;
  • social networks;
  • partner websites;
  • payment services;
  • maps;
  • video hosting platforms;
  • other third-party platforms.

After the user follows a link to a third-party resource, data may be processed by its owner in accordance with that owner’s own documents and rules.

Gamechanger does not determine the data processing policies of independent third-party resources.

20. Third-party data

The user must refrain from transferring another person’s personal data without a legal ground.

If the user sends Gamechanger documents or information containing personal data of third parties, the user confirms that there is a legal ground for such transfer to the extent such confirmation is required by law.

21. Data of minors

Gamechanger websites are aimed primarily at business users and are not specifically intended for collecting personal data of minors.

If the law requires the involvement or consent of a legal representative for the processing of a minor’s data, such processing is carried out in compliance with the relevant requirements.

22. Amendments to the Policy

Gamechanger may amend this Policy in the event of:

  • changes in legislation;
  • changes in the operation of the websites;
  • the introduction of new features;
  • changes in data processing procedures;
  • changes in information security requirements.

The current version is published on Gamechanger websites or on a single page linked from the relevant websites.

The date of the latest version is indicated at the beginning of the document.

If an amendment materially affects the procedure for processing personal data, Gamechanger takes the necessary measures to inform users and to obtain new consent where required by law.
