Cookies
Automated Information Collection Technologies
As described below, when you access our Services, we collect certain technical information and may associate such information with your user or account ID number for our internal use.
Cookies
A “cookie” is a small text file that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. We may use cookies to track general, non-personal information about our users (e.g., user name, pages viewed, time spent on our Site(s), games, and the sites visited just before and just after our Site(s)) for statistical and market research purposes.
We use cookies to gather information about our users’ browser activities in order to constantly improve our Service. This information assists us to design and arrange our web pages in a most user-friendly manner and to continually improve our Service to better meet the needs of our customers, prospective customers, and visitors.
We may also use local shared objects known as “flash cookies”, which help us to prevent fraud, remember your in-game settings and to track your progress on certain in-game tasks.
You have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you have the option to reject all cookies, or limit the type of cookies you allow. Flash cookies operate differently from browser cookies and cookie management tools available in a web browser will not remove flash cookies. To learn more about and manage flash cookies you can visit www.adobe.com. Rejecting or limiting the type of cookies may, however, in limited instances prevent you from accessing certain features on our Service.
Log Files
Like most Internet services, we may also use log files on the server side. The data held in log files includes your computer’s or Mobile Device’s IP (Internet Protocol) address, browser type, browser language, e-mail application, Internet service provider, referring/exit Web pages, computer platform type, date/time stamp, and user activity. Company uses server log data to analyze trends, administer the services offered through our Service. We and our third-party partners may use this information for product and service improvements, and in marketing and advertising services.
The software enabling our Services has associated log and temporary files that are stored on Company’s servers. These files store your account information, preference settings, system notifications as well as other data necessary to enable you to participate on our Service. Your information may also exist within regularly performed server backups.
Tracking Technologies
Our Services may utilize a variety of methods for tracking purposes, including web beacons (also known as Internet tags, pixel tags and clear GIFs). Web beacons are small pieces of data that are embedded in images on the pages of websites to analyze the traffic patterns, such as the frequency users visit various areas of our Services. Pixel tags may allow us to advertise more efficiently by excluding our current users from certain promotional messages or identifying the source of a new installation. These methods may involve transmitting information either directly to us or to another entity authorized by us to collect information on our behalf. We also use these technical methods in HTML e-mails that we send our guests to determine whether our guests have opened those e-mails or clicked on links in those e-mails. With web beacon technology, the information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally identifiable. It does not contain your name, address, telephone number, or email address.
Third Party Advertisers
Many advertisements are managed and placed on the service by third parties. These third-party advertisers may use cookies, web beacons or similar automated information collection technologies on your computer or Mobile Devices to help present, better target, and measure the effectiveness of their advertisements, by collecting non-personally identifiable information when you click on or move your cursor over one of their advertisements. We may share certain non-personally identifiable information about you as a user with certain third-party advertisers to help them deliver more relevant advertisements through their ad networks. In some cases, we may have access to information from cookies, web beacons and similar automated information collection technologies used by third party advertisers on our Services and this information may permit us to identify other sites or services that you have visited that are also associated with the third-party advertiser.
The use of cookies, web beacons, or similar automated information collection technologies by third party advertisers is subject to their own privacy policies. Finally, once you have clicked on an advertisement and have left the Service, our Privacy Policy no longer applies and you must read the privacy policy of the applicable third-party advertiser to see how your personal information will be collected, stored and used as part of their service.
Click Through URLs
Some of our Services, including email messages, use “click-through URLs” linked to other content on our Services. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in topics and use of the Services.
Monitoring/Public Information
You may also choose to disclose personal information in our Forums. Personal information you disclose in such Forums is public information, and there is no expectation of privacy or confidentiality. Please refer to the Terms of Service for additional information relating to the disclosure of personal information in such Forums.

In addition, we will make any legally required disclosures to government authorities and provide notice to you of any breach of security, confidentiality or unauthorized release of personal or private data in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.
Storage and Security
We employ reasonable measures (both online and offline) to protect the security of information we collect from you. Such information is housed in secure databases, equipment and servers located in the Thailand and/or in other countries.

To prevent unauthorized access, loss, or misuse, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put in place physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we maintain. We use industry-standard technology, such as firewalls, in an effort to protect the confidentiality of your personal information. Moreover, in addition to password protection offered in connection with your Service account, we encrypt your transmission of sensitive information to us (e.g., account passwords and payment-related identifiable information) via SSL (secured socket layer) protocol in the interest of heightened privacy protection and information integrity.

We strongly urge you to take reasonable measures at all times (online and offline) to protect your personal information, including your password and other sensitive information.

We will investigate, attempt to resolve and take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that your personal information and data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We will retain your personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or as needed to provide you with Services.

(b) Additional terms for California Residents
California Consumer Privacy Act. The CCPA requires us to provide our users who reside in California with the additional notice below.
For the purposes of this notice, Personal Information means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household, or as otherwise defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (California Civil Code §§ 1798.100 to 1798.199) and its implementing regulations, as amended or superseded from time to time (“CCPA”).
Personal Information does not include information that is:
* Lawfully made available from government records.
* Deidentified or aggregated.
* Otherwise excluded from the scope of the CCPA.
We collect and disclose the categories of personal information as set out in Section 3(1)(a) above, for the business purposes also set out in Section 3(1)(a).
If you are a California resident, and the processing of personal information about you is subject to the CCPA, you have certain rights with respect to that information:
Notice at Collection.
At or before the time of collection, you have a right to receive notice of our practices, including the categories of personal information and sensitive personal information to be collected, the purposes for which such information is collected or used, whether such information is sold or shared, and how long such information is retained. You can find those details in this Privacy Policy by referring to this and the above-referenced sections.
Right to Know
The right to request a copy of the personal information that we have collected about you in the prior 12 months. You also have a right to request additional information about our collection, use, disclosure, or sale of such personal information. Note that we have provided much of this information in this Privacy Policy. You may make such a “request to know” as described in Section 8(1) of this Privacy Policy.
Rights to Request Correction or Deletion.
You also have rights to request that we correct inaccurate personal information and that we delete personal information under certain circumstances, subject to a number of exceptions.
To make a request to correct or delete, please do so using our game/non-game account information functionality or email us using the contact information in the ‘Contact Us” section of this Privacy Policy.
Right to Opt-Out / “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information”
You have a right to opt-out from future “sales” or “sharing” of personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA. Note that the CCPA defines “sell,” “share,” and “personal information” very broadly, and some of our data disclosures described in this Privacy Policy may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under those definitions.
In particular, we let advertising and analytics providers collect identifiers (IP addresses, cookie IDs, and mobile IDs), activity data (Browse, clicks, app usage), and device data through our sites and apps when you use our online services, but do not “sell” or “share” any other types of personal information. If you do not wish for us or our partners to “sell” or “share” personal information relating to your visits to our sites for advertising purposes, you can make your request by emailing us using the contact information in Section 12 of this Privacy Policy.
If you opt-out using these choices, we will not disclose or make available such personal information in ways that are considered a “sale” or “sharing” under the CCPA. However, we will continue to make available to our partners (acting as our service providers) some personal information to help us perform advertising-related functions. Further, using these choices will not opt you out of the use of previously “sold” or “shared” personal information or stop all interest-based advertising.
We do not knowingly sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age.
Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information.
You have a right to limit our use of sensitive personal information for any purposes other than to provide the services or goods you request or as otherwise permitted by law. Note that we do not use sensitive personal information for any such additional purposes.
You may designate, in writing or through a power of attorney, an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf to exercise your rights under the CCPA. Before accepting such a request from an agent, we will require the agent to provide proof you have authorized them to act on your behalf, and we may need you to verify your identity directly with us.
Further, to provide, correct, or delete specific pieces of personal information we will need to verify your identity to the degree of certainty required by law. We will verify your request through common market practices, including by asking you to send it from the email address associated with your account or requiring you to provide information necessary to verify your account.
You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of your CCPA privacy rights, subject to certain limitations.
Additionally, under California Civil Code section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine the Light” law, California residents who have provided personal information to a business with which the individual has established a business relationship for personal, family, or household purposes (“California Customers”) may request information about whether the business has disclosed personal information to any third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Please be aware that we do not disclose personal information to any third parties for their direct marketing purposes as defined by this law. California Customers may request further information about our compliance with this law by emailing the address provided in the "Contact Us" section above.
Please note that businesses are required to respond to one request per California Customer each year and may not be required to respond to requests made by means other than through the designated email address.
California residents under the age of 18 who are registered users of online sites, services, or applications have a right under California Business and Professions Code section 22581 to remove, or request and obtain removal of, content or information they have publicly posted. To remove content or information you have publicly posted, or to request that we remove such content or information, please send us a detailed description of the specific content or information you wish to have removed using the details provided in the "Contact Us" section above.
Please be aware that your request does not guarantee complete or comprehensive removal of content or information posted online and that the law may not permit or require removal in certain circumstances.
An authorized agent may submit an access or deletion request on your behalf by sending a written authorization signed by you using the contact information in the “Contact Us” section.
We may still require you to directly verify your identity and confirm that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request
(2) Additional Information for the EEA and UK residents
If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom (UK), the following additional information applies to you in addition to the Privacy Policy set out above.
Data Subject Rights
In addition to the information set out in the "Your rights and choices" section in the Privacy Policy above, you have the right to:
* ask us to restrict the processing of your personal information,
* data portability,
* to object to the processing of personal information.
Legal basis for processing your personal information
Our legal basis for collecting and using the information described in section 1 for the purposes in section 2 of our Privacy Policy above is:
* To establish and perform our contract with you (i.e. our Terms of Service) and to provide our services;
* For our or our partners’ legitimate interests, where those interests are not overridden by your data protection interests of fundamental rights and freedoms, e.g. to protect our legal rights, to pursue or defend legal claims, to improve our services;
* Consent, where obtained separately;
* For compliance with our legal obligations under applicable laws and regulations;
* To protect our or your vital interests or those of another person (for example, another player), e.g. against fraud and violations of our terms;
While we typically do not collect sensitive or special category personal information, where we do this, it will be on the grounds of explicit consent or other applicable lawful basis.
Where we rely on a legitimate interest for the processing of your data, we have performed a legitimate interest assessment to determine whether your interests outweigh our interests in the processing taking place.
You can obtain more information about this balancing test by using the contact details under ‘Contact Us’.
If you have questions, need further information about the legal bases for processing your personal information, or want to withdraw your consent, please see section 12 “Contact Us” in the Privacy Policy above.
Cross-border data transfer
As a global company, we may transfer your personal information to our affiliates, third party service providers and partners that operate around the world, which are located in countries other than the country in which you are resident. These countries may have data protection laws that are different to the laws of your country.
Where we transfer your personal information to countries and territories outside of the European Economic Area and the UK, which have been formally recognised as providing an adequate level of protection for personal information, we rely on the relevant “adequacy decisions” from the European Commission, where applicable. Where the transfer is not subject to an adequacy decision, we have taken appropriate safeguards to require that your personal information will remain protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The safeguards we use are the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses as issued on 4 June 2021, including the UK Addendum, and/or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement permitted under Article 46 of the UK GDPR. This is how transfers of personal information between us and other companies will be safeguarded. All companies are required to protect personal information that they process from Europe in accordance with European Union data protection law. Transferred personal information includes basic information such as your name or contact information such as your email address.
When we transfer your personal information internationally, we comply with relevant laws and regulations, and we enter into Data Processing Agreements (DPA) or Data Sharing Agreements (DSA) with all third-party partners (data recipients) with whom we exchange data. These agreements include limitations on the purposes of personal information processing, implementation of security measures, and cooperation obligations for exercising your rights, incorporating appropriate safeguards such as European Union Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). This ensures that your data receives a high level of protection even in the countries to which it is transferred.
[Supplement: DSA Related Content for Cross-Border Data Transfer]

Automated Information Collection Technologies
As described below, when you access our Services, we collect certain technical information and may associate such information with your user or account ID number for our internal use.
Cookies
A “cookie” is a small text file that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. We may use cookies to track general, non-personal information about our users (e.g., user name, pages viewed, time spent on our Site(s), games, and the sites visited just before and just after our Site(s)) for statistical and market research purposes.
We use cookies to gather information about our users’ browser activities in order to constantly improve our Service. This information assists us to design and arrange our web pages in a most user-friendly manner and to continually improve our Service to better meet the needs of our customers, prospective customers, and visitors.
We may also use local shared objects known as “flash cookies”, which help us to prevent fraud, remember your in-game settings and to track your progress on certain in-game tasks.
You have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you have the option to reject all cookies, or limit the type of cookies you allow. Flash cookies operate differently from browser cookies and cookie management tools available in a web browser will not remove flash cookies. To learn more about and manage flash cookies you can visit www.adobe.com. Rejecting or limiting the type of cookies may, however, in limited instances prevent you from accessing certain features on our Service.
Log Files
Like most Internet services, we may also use log files on the server side. The data held in log files includes your computer’s or Mobile Device’s IP (Internet Protocol) address, browser type, browser language, e-mail application, Internet service provider, referring/exit Web pages, computer platform type, date/time stamp, and user activity.

The software enabling our Services has associated log and temporary files that are stored on Company’s servers. These files store your account information, preference settings, system notifications as well as other data necessary to enable you to participate on our Service. Your information may also exist within regularly performed server backups.
Tracking Technologies
Our Services may utilize a variety of methods for tracking purposes, including web beacons (also known as Internet tags, pixel tags and clear GIFs). Web beacons are small pieces of data that are embedded in images on the pages of websites to analyze the traffic patterns, such as the frequency users visit various areas of our Services. Pixel tags may allow us to advertise more efficiently by excluding our current users from certain promotional messages or identifying the source of a new installation. These methods may involve transmitting information either directly to us or to another entity authorized by us to collect information on our behalf. We also use these technical methods in HTML e-mails that we send our guests to determine whether our guests have opened those e-mails or clicked on links in those e-mails. With web beacon technology, the information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally identifiable. It does not contain your name, address, telephone number, or email address.
Third Party Advertisers
Many advertisements are managed and placed on the service by third parties. These third-party advertisers may use cookies, web beacons or similar automated information collection technologies on your computer or Mobile Devices to help present, better target, and measure the effectiveness of their advertisements, by collecting non-personally identifiable information when you click on or move your cursor over one of their advertisements. We may share certain non-personally identifiable information about you as a user with certain third-party advertisers to help them deliver more relevant advertisements through their ad networks. In some cases, we may have access to information from cookies, web beacons and similar automated information collection technologies used by third party advertisers on our Services and this information may permit us to identify other sites or services that you have visited that are also associated with the third-party advertiser.
The use of cookies, web beacons, or similar automated information collection technologies by third party advertisers is subject to their own privacy policies. Finally, once you have clicked on an advertisement and have left the Service, our Privacy Policy no longer applies and you must read the privacy policy of the applicable third-party advertiser to see how your personal information will be collected, stored and used as part of their service.
Click Through URLs
Some of our Services, including email messages, use “click-through URLs” linked to other content on our Services. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in topics and use of the Services.

Please refer to the Terms of Service for additional information relating to the disclosure of personal information in such Forums.

For example, we receive and store the information you provide when you enter any promotion, sweepstakes or loyalty program.

Disclosure and Transfer to Third Parties
We generally do not disclose or transfer any personal information about our customers, prospects, or visitors to any third parties. We may however, disclose and transfer data which does not contain or reveal any personally identifiable information or is specifically attributable to you to our business partners, third party analytics service providers, ad networks and advertisers (collectively, “Partners”). Provided, however, some Partners may also act as third party service providers (described below) to us and may have access to your personally identifiable information. Moreover, Partners may obtain public information about you from your profile or other public sources.
We may also periodically engage in co-marketing activities, where we work with a complementary solution provider to launch a joint marketing program. In these situations, we will only send information to you on behalf of the other; we do not provide your personally identifiable information to such partner. We may also enter into business partnerships with other parties to provide specific services. If a user signs up for these services or responds to a particular marketing offer, we may share personally identifiable information such as your name or other contact information that is necessary for our business partner to provide these services or get in contact with you.
Disclosure of your personally identifiable information may occur when we engage or employ service providers, vendors or other third parties to facilitate the provision of our Services (including, without limitation, payment processing, data analysis, e-mail delivery, hosting services, customer service and promotional services) to provide the Services on our behalf, or to assist us in analyzing how our Services are being used. Such third party service provider (“Third Party Partner”) may have access to your personally identifiable information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
Currently, the name of Third-Party Partner, services performed by it on our behalf, service territory of it, and period of retention and use by it of Personal Information are as follows:
In the event Company combines with another company in the future through a corporate merger, sale, acquisition, liquidation or other similar process, your personally identifiable information may be transferred with the business or a part of it, or may be sold as an asset of the business, to the successor organization in such transaction. If material changes to the Company’s privacy practices will occur as a result of such transaction, we will notify you and other users in the manner described in this Privacy Policy.
In addition, upon the expiration or termination of any third-party license arrangements involving one or more parts of the Service, your personal information (including name, email address and other personally identifiable information) may be transferred to the subject third party licensor in accordance with the terms of the applicable license agreement. In advance of such transfer to a third-party licensor, the Company will notify you and other users in writing in the manner described in this Privacy Policy.
Safety, Security and Legally Required Disclosures
Your personally identifiable information, and communications you make within the Service, may be accessed and disclosed if we believe that our Service is being used in the commission of a crime, when we believe in good faith that there is an emergency that poses a threat to the safety of you or another person and when necessary either to protect our rights or property including to enforce our Terms of Service, or for us to render the service you have requested.
We may also disclose personally identifiable information when required by law, regulation, court order, or in response to a subpoena or litigation discovery request, or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary in order to conform to the edicts of the law or comply with a legal process served on us. In addition, we will make any legally required disclosures to government authorities and provide notice to you of any breach of security, confidentiality or unauthorized release of personal or private data in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.
Storage and Security
We employ reasonable measures (both online and offline) to protect the security of information we collect from you. Such information is housed in secure databases, equipment and servers located in the Thailand and/or in other countries. The databases, equipment and servers we utilize may be owned by third party providers. To prevent unauthorized access, loss, or misuse, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put in place physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we maintain. We use industry-standard technology, such as firewalls, in an effort to protect the confidentiality of your personal information. Moreover, in addition to password protection offered in connection with your Service account, we encrypt your transmission of sensitive information to us (e.g., account passwords and payment-related identifiable information) via SSL (secured socket layer) protocol in the interest of heightened privacy protection and information integrity.
Although we take reasonable precautions against possible security breaches of our Service, databases, equipment or servers, and records, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other security breaches and factors beyond our control will never take place and result in disclosure of your personal information. Accordingly, we disclaim any guarantees, warranties or representations relating to maintenance or nondisclosure of any personal information collected from you. We strongly urge you to take reasonable measures at all times (online and offline) to protect your personal information, including your password and other sensitive information.
In addition, while we strive to protect your personal information, you should know that information sent over the Internet, whether by e-mail or by using one of our on-line forms, is not necessarily secure against interception. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for such interception and cannot guarantee the security of such information.
We will investigate, attempt to resolve and take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that your personal information and data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We will retain your personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or as needed to provide you with Services. We may retain your personal information after you have closed any account you have with us or after we have ceased providing Services to you if retention of your Personal Information is reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations, meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes between members, prevent fraud, cheating or abuse, or enforce this Privacy Policy or any other agreement we may have with a user.

Some privacy laws define “sale” broadly to include some of the data disclosures described in Section 6 above – in particular certain sharing with third party providers for targeted advertising purposes. To opt-out from targeted advertising and any related data “sales,” you have several options.
You can use browser or device-level controls as follows:

(b) Additional terms for California Residents
California Consumer Privacy Act. The CCPA requires us to provide our users who reside in California with the additional notice below.
For the purposes of this notice, Personal Information means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household, or as otherwise defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (California Civil Code §§ 1798.100 to 1798.199) and its implementing regulations, as amended or superseded from time to time (“CCPA”).
Personal Information does not include information that is:
* Lawfully made available from government records.
* Deidentified or aggregated.
* Otherwise excluded from the scope of the CCPA.
We collect and disclose the categories of personal information as set out in Section 3(1)(a) above, for the business purposes also set out in Section 3(1)(a).
If you are a California resident, and the processing of personal information about you is subject to the CCPA, you have certain rights with respect to that information:
Notice at Collection.
At or before the time of collection, you have a right to receive notice of our practices, including the categories of personal information and sensitive personal information to be collected, the purposes for which such information is collected or used, whether such information is sold or shared, and how long such information is retained. You can find those details in this Privacy Policy by referring to this and the above-referenced sections.
Right to Know
The right to request a copy of the personal information that we have collected about you in the prior 12 months. You also have a right to request additional information about our collection, use, disclosure, or sale of such personal information. Note that we have provided much of this information in this Privacy Policy. You may make such a “request to know” as described in Section 8(1) of this Privacy Policy.
Rights to Request Correction or Deletion.
You also have rights to request that we correct inaccurate personal information and that we delete personal information under certain circumstances, subject to a number of exceptions.
To make a request to correct or delete, please do so using our game/non-game account information functionality or email us using the contact information in the ‘Contact Us” section of this Privacy Policy.
Right to Opt-Out / “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information”
You have a right to opt-out from future “sales” or “sharing” of personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA. Note that the CCPA defines “sell,” “share,” and “personal information” very broadly, and some of our data disclosures described in this Privacy Policy may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under those definitions.
In particular, we let advertising and analytics providers collect identifiers (IP addresses, cookie IDs, and mobile IDs), activity data (Browse, clicks, app usage), and device data through our sites and apps when you use our online services, but do not “sell” or “share” any other types of personal information. If you do not wish for us or our partners to “sell” or “share” personal information relating to your visits to our sites for advertising purposes, you can make your request by emailing us using the contact information in Section 12 of this Privacy Policy.
If you opt-out using these choices, we will not disclose or make available such personal information in ways that are considered a “sale” or “sharing” under the CCPA. However, we will continue to make available to our partners (acting as our service providers) some personal information to help us perform advertising-related functions. Further, using these choices will not opt you out of the use of previously “sold” or “shared” personal information or stop all interest-based advertising.
We do not knowingly sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age.
Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information.
You have a right to limit our use of sensitive personal information for any purposes other than to provide the services or goods you request or as otherwise permitted by law. Note that we do not use sensitive personal information for any such additional purposes.
You may designate, in writing or through a power of attorney, an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf to exercise your rights under the CCPA. Before accepting such a request from an agent, we will require the agent to provide proof you have authorized them to act on your behalf, and we may need you to verify your identity directly with us.
Further, to provide, correct, or delete specific pieces of personal information we will need to verify your identity to the degree of certainty required by law. We will verify your request through common market practices, including by asking you to send it from the email address associated with your account or requiring you to provide information necessary to verify your account.
You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of your CCPA privacy rights, subject to certain limitations.
Additionally, under California Civil Code section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine the Light” law, California residents who have provided personal information to a business with which the individual has established a business relationship for personal, family, or household purposes (“California Customers”) may request information about whether the business has disclosed personal information to any third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Please be aware that we do not disclose personal information to any third parties for their direct marketing purposes as defined by this law. California Customers may request further information about our compliance with this law by emailing the address provided in the "Contact Us" section above.
Please note that businesses are required to respond to one request per California Customer each year and may not be required to respond to requests made by means other than through the designated email address.
California residents under the age of 18 who are registered users of online sites, services, or applications have a right under California Business and Professions Code section 22581 to remove, or request and obtain removal of, content or information they have publicly posted. To remove content or information you have publicly posted, or to request that we remove such content or information, please send us a detailed description of the specific content or information you wish to have removed using the details provided in the "Contact Us" section above.
Please be aware that your request does not guarantee complete or comprehensive removal of content or information posted online and that the law may not permit or require removal in certain circumstances.
An authorized agent may submit an access or deletion request on your behalf by sending a written authorization signed by you using the contact information in the “Contact Us” section.
We may still require you to directly verify your identity and confirm that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request
(2) Additional Information for the EEA and UK residents
If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom (UK), the following additional information applies to you in addition to the Privacy Policy set out above.
Data Subject Rights
In addition to the information set out in the "Your rights and choices" section in the Privacy Policy above, you have the right to:
* ask us to restrict the processing of your personal information,
* data portability,
* to object to the processing of personal information.
Legal basis for processing your personal information
Our legal basis for collecting and using the information described in section 1 for the purposes in section 2 of our Privacy Policy above is:
* To establish and perform our contract with you (i.e. our Terms of Service) and to provide our services;
* For our or our partners’ legitimate interests, where those interests are not overridden by your data protection interests of fundamental rights and freedoms, e.g. to protect our legal rights, to pursue or defend legal claims, to improve our services;
* Consent, where obtained separately;
* For compliance with our legal obligations under applicable laws and regulations;
* To protect our or your vital interests or those of another person (for example, another player), e.g. against fraud and violations of our terms;
While we typically do not collect sensitive or special category personal information, where we do this, it will be on the grounds of explicit consent or other applicable lawful basis.
Where we rely on a legitimate interest for the processing of your data, we have performed a legitimate interest assessment to determine whether your interests outweigh our interests in the processing taking place.
You can obtain more information about this balancing test by using the contact details under ‘Contact Us’.
If you have questions, need further information about the legal bases for processing your personal information, or want to withdraw your consent, please see section 12 “Contact Us” in the Privacy Policy above.
Cross-border data transfer
As a global company, we may transfer your personal information to our affiliates, third party service providers and partners that operate around the world, which are located in countries other than the country in which you are resident. These countries may have data protection laws that are different to the laws of your country.
Where we transfer your personal information to countries and territories outside of the European Economic Area and the UK, which have been formally recognised as providing an adequate level of protection for personal information, we rely on the relevant “adequacy decisions” from the European Commission, where applicable. Where the transfer is not subject to an adequacy decision, we have taken appropriate safeguards to require that your personal information will remain protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The safeguards we use are the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses as issued on 4 June 2021, including the UK Addendum, and/or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement permitted under Article 46 of the UK GDPR. This is how transfers of personal information between us and other companies will be safeguarded. All companies are required to protect personal information that they process from Europe in accordance with European Union data protection law. Transferred personal information includes basic information such as your name or contact information such as your email address.
When we transfer your personal information internationally, we comply with relevant laws and regulations, and we enter into Data Processing Agreements (DPA) or Data Sharing Agreements (DSA) with all third-party partners (data recipients) with whom we exchange data. These agreements include limitations on the purposes of personal information processing, implementation of security measures, and cooperation obligations for exercising your rights, incorporating appropriate safeguards such as European Union Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). This ensures that your data receives a high level of protection even in the countries to which it is transferred.
[Supplement: DSA Related Content for Cross-Border Data Transfer]
