LUDA PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: July 22, 2022

This Privacy Policy is designed to help you understand how Luda Studios, Inc. (“Luda,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, processes, and shares your personal information, and to help you understand and exercise your privacy rights.

1. SCOPE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information processed by us through the development of any of our Luda projects, such as Neo Fairies, as well as our website or other online or offline offerings. To make this Privacy Policy easier to read, our projects and the development of our projects, as well as our website and other online or offline offerings, will be called the “Projects.”

An Important Note regarding Blockchain Technologies: If you participate in our Projects relating to the creation and management of a decentralized autonomous organization (“DAO”) or non-fungible tokens (“NFT”), smart contracts will be employed that necessarily collect information, such as your digital wallet address (which some legal jurisdictions may consider personal information), and that information will be stored on a public blockchain that we do not control. A smart contract is computer code that automatically processes events when certain conditions are met; for example, when a proposal is presented to a member’s DAO and after all needed votes are made by respective DAO member, the smart contract will automatically execute the proposed action. In these situations, your personal information will be stored on that blockchain through the execution of a smart contract and may not be able to be modified or deleted due to the immutable nature of the blockchain.

Changes to our Privacy Policy. We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time in our sole discretion. If there are any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you as required by applicable law. You understand and agree that you will be deemed to have accepted the updated Privacy Policy if you continue to use our Projects after the new Privacy Policy takes effect.
