Effective Date: 31 August 2026

This Privacy Policy governs the collection, use, disclosure, storage and other processing of information in connection with use of the myminigt.com platform, including its website, user accounts, catalogues, marketplace, model-exchange services, chats, fan clubs, subscriptions, payment features, weekly competitions, seasonal leaderboard, Season Cup and other digital services of the platform. The platform is operated by Global Collector Network Limited, a company registered in Hong Kong, Business Registration No. 80480616-000-05-26-4, with its registered address at Room 803, 8/F, Easey Commercial Building, 253–261 Hennessy Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong (the “Company”, the “Platform”, “myMiniGT”, “we”, “us” or “our”). For privacy and personal-data matters, please contact: admin@myminigt.com. By using myminigt.com, the user (the “User”, “you” or “your”) confirms that they have reviewed this Privacy Policy and understand the information-processing practices described below.

1. General Provisions

1.1. The Platform is intended for collectors, dealers, sellers and other users interested in scale model vehicles, catalogues, statistics, transactions, exchanges, analytics and the myMiniGT community.

1.2. This Privacy Policy applies to all sections and services of myminigt.com, including web and mobile interfaces, APIs, chats, the marketplace, loyalty programmes, referral mechanisms, subscriptions, payment features, weekly competitions, the seasonal leaderboard, the Season Cup and prize fulfilment.

1.3. For particular features, the Platform may publish supplementary privacy notices, competition rules or separate consent forms. Such documents apply together with this Privacy Policy.

1.4. Where a particular feature requires separate consent, the Company will obtain such consent before processing personal data for that feature.

2. Categories of Data We May Process

The Company seeks to avoid collecting excessive data and to retain information no longer than reasonably necessary for operation of the Platform. Depending on the features used, we may process the following categories of information:

Payment and Internal-Unit Data: information concerning purchases of Lite, Pro and Max subscriptions; purchases of MGTcredits; transactions involving paid features; accrual and spending of MGTcoins; order history; refunds; and anti-fraud review records. Payment-card data is generally processed by payment providers rather than by the Platform, unless expressly stated otherwise at the time of payment.

The Company may process data on one or more of the following legal bases:

5.1. the User’s consent, expressed through registration, use of Platform features, submission of a form, activation of options or payment;

5.2. the necessity of performing a contract, the Platform’s user rules and the rules of a weekly competition or the Season Cup;

5.3. the Company’s legitimate interests, including protection of the Platform, fraud prevention, result verification, service development, internal analytics and security; and

5.4. the necessity of complying with applicable law and lawful requests of courts, regulators, law-enforcement authorities and tax authorities.

To obtain a winner’s address and contact details and to disclose those details to participants in the prize-delivery process, the Company obtains a separate confirmation through the prize-claim form.

6. Weekly Competition, Seasonal Leaderboard and Season Cup

6.1. Recording Competition Results

The weekly competition is based on a User’s verified contribution to the Platform. Verified results from a weekly competition may be taken into account in the seasonal leaderboard, in meeting qualification requirements and in determining the outcome of the Season Cup, in accordance with the rules of the relevant activity.

For the purpose of recording results, the Company may process the information listed in Section 2.8 of this Privacy Policy, including data concerning task completion, addition or correction of catalogue data, collection materials, photographs, videos, quizzes, community activity and other actions expressly provided for in the weekly announcement or competition rules.

Internal Mileage, progress and other competition indicators are internal operational metrics of the Platform. They do not constitute money, electronic money, securities, digital financial assets, a means of payment or a proprietary right. They may not be sold, exchanged for money, transferred between users or withdrawn from the Platform, unless expressly provided otherwise in the terms of a separate feature.

6.2. Verification and Integrity Protection

To ensure the integrity of the weekly competition, seasonal leaderboard and Season Cup, the Company may use automated verification, manual moderation, anti-fraud checks and technical analysis of activity within the Service.

The Company may verify the uniqueness, origin, relevance, quality and reliability of data, photographs, videos, answers, links, descriptions and other materials submitted for result recognition. The Company may also compare User activity with technical logs, account history and other available security signals.

If the Company identifies duplicate or third-party content, inaccurate information, artificial activity generation, spam, use of multiple accounts, bots or scripts, duplicate recognition of the same event, circumvention of restrictions or any other bad-faith acquisition of an advantage, it may decline to recognise, cancel or adjust the relevant result; conduct additional review; restrict participation in current or future activities; or apply other measures provided for under the Platform rules.

6.3. Leaderboards, Public Results and Operational Data

In connection with the weekly competition, seasonal leaderboard and Season Cup, the Platform may display to other users a nickname, avatar where available, public status, achievements, badges, leaderboard position, qualification status, stage result, fact of winning and other information contemplated by the interface or rules of the relevant activity.

The Company does not publish a winner’s address, telephone number, email address, full legal name or other non-public contact details without separate consent, except where such disclosure is required by applicable law.

Exact internal action weights, anti-fraud parameters, verification materials, operational logs and other information whose disclosure may create a risk of manipulation, circumvention of restrictions or infringement of third-party rights may not be publicly displayed. This does not relieve the Company of its obligation to comply with the published rules for determining results.

6.4. Seasonal Leaderboard and Season Cup

The seasonal leaderboard is compiled on the basis of verified results achieved during the season. For the purpose of conducting the Season Cup, the Company may process and display information relating to eligibility, qualification, seasonal leaderboard position, stage results, final placement, winner status and prize status to the extent necessary to conduct the activity and implement the published rules.

The procedure for recording weekly results, the composition of metrics taken into account, participation conditions, tie-breaking criteria, prize periods and prize composition are determined by the rules and announcement for the relevant season. Where the rules provide for determination of a winner on the basis of verified results, the Company will not use a random selection as the criterion for determining the Season Cup winner.

7. User Public Content

7.1. Photographs of models and collections, descriptions, comments, reviews, lists, listings, fan-club posts, chat messages, marketplace materials and other content uploaded by the User are provided voluntarily.

7.2. The User understands that publicly posted content may be available to other users, indexed by search engines and used by the Platform to the extent necessary for operation, display, moderation, archiving, promotion of the service and preparation of editorial or statistical materials.

8.2. These technologies may be used for authentication, security, storage of preferences, analytics, anti-fraud functions, A/B testing, interface stability and product development.

8.3. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of certain Platform features.

9. Payments and Digital Units

9.2. MGTcredits may be purchased using fiat currency at a base rate of 10 MGTcredits = USD 1.00, unless a different rate, promotion, tax or fee is specified at the time of purchase.

9.3. MGTcoins are a promotional, non-transferable internal unit of the Platform. Their accrual is not guaranteed. They are not electronic money, securities, a banking product, a deposit or property subject to mandatory redemption for fiat currency.

9.4. The Company may analyse transactions involving MGTcoins and MGTcredits for anti-fraud reviews, accounting, technical operations, dispute resolution, refunds and monitoring compliance with the rules.

10. Analytics, Prices and Forecasts

10.1. The Platform may publish historical model-price data, transaction trends, forecasts, statistical estimates, charts, indices, rankings, ownership information, collection statistics, ownership geography and other analytical materials.

10.2. Any forecasts, estimates, rankings and analytical materials are provided for informational purposes only, do not guarantee any outcome, may not be fully accurate and do not constitute investment, financial, legal or other professional advice.

10.3. The User independently makes decisions concerning the purchase, sale, exchange, storage or collection of models and assumes all associated risks.

The Company may disclose information to third parties in the following circumstances:
