Place of Business
We
may store or process your Personal Data outside of the country where
we collect the information or the country in which you reside. Our
primary place of business is in the United States. You should
understand that we may transfer some or all of your Personal Data to
the United States to carry out certain operational and processing
needs as described in this Policy.
Transfer
Mechanisms
When
transferring Personal Data out of foreign countries, we implement
technical, organizational, and physical safeguards to protect your
Personal Data. We use European Commission approved standard
contractual clauses and implement related measures where required by
applicable law. Please contact us if you have questions related to
the relevant transfer mechanism for your Personal Data.
9. How is my Personal Data protected?
Our
Retention, Purpose Limitation, and Security Policies
We
protect your Personal Data through a combination of collection,
security, and retention policies.
- Limited retention: We retain each category of Personal Data
only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the
Personal Data was provided to us or, if longer, to comply with any
legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce contracts.
For example, we may retain Personal Data collected about you to
prevent repeated violations or suspected violations of our Terms
of Service if your account has been banned or your
access to our Services has been disabled for any reason. To
determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Data, we
consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the Personal Data,
the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of
the Personal Data, the purposes for which we process the Personal
Data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means,
and the applicable legal requirements. For example, subject to the
foregoing considerations, it is our policy to delete your Personal
Data if we stop operating our Game or the feature through which the
Personal Data was acquired.
- Purpose limitation: We will use your Personal Data only for
our Services you choose to access and for the purposes notified to
you, unless we otherwise obtain your consent. We limit the
collection of Personal Data to what is adequate, relevant, and
reasonably necessary for those purposes.
- Security measures: We use reasonable security measures to
ensure a level of security appropriate to the volume and nature of
Personal Data processed and risk involved, considering the size,
scope, and type of our business, and have implemented contractual,
technical, administrative, and physical security measures designed
to protect your Personal Data from unauthorized access, disclosure,
use, and modification, including industry-standard encryption for
the transmitting of Personal Data and industry-standard hashing
techniques for the retention of Personal Data. As part of our
privacy compliance processes, we review these security procedures on
an ongoing basis to consider new technology and methods as
necessary. However, please understand that our implementation of
security measures as described in this Policy does not guarantee the
security of your Personal Data. In the event of a security breach,
we will notify the proper regulatory authorities and any affected
users of the breach within 72 hours after we become aware of the
breach to the extent required by applicable law.
Your
Practices and Activities
Your
practices and activities are likewise very important for the
protection of your Personal Data. You should take certain steps to
help protect your Personal Data, such as being mindful of what you
share publicly in our Game, including the below.
- Do not use your real name when selecting a username.
- Do not share your real name or anything private about yourself or
anyone else with other users of our Game.
- Do not pick a password that is easy to guess, and do not share your
password.
Please
remember that we have no control over what other users do with the
content of your communications and no responsibility or obligation
regarding other users.
10. What rights do you have to your Personal Data?
Right
to Access, Correct, Delete, or Restrict Processing
Subject
to any limitations and exceptions under applicable law, you may have
the right to request access to your Personal Data and exercise the
below rights.
- You may have the right to correct or update certain types of
Personal Data. In many cases, you can review or update your account
information by accessing your account online.
- You may have the right to request deletion of your Personal Data. If
you choose to have your Personal Data removed from our Services, we
will carry out your request within 30 days of account verification,
subject to extension, and we will only retain minimal Personal Data
to document your request and the actions we took to carry out your
request.
- You may have the right to restrict certain processing of your
Personal Data and the right to object to some types of processing of
your Personal Data.
- You may have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
- You may have the right to lodge a complaint regarding our
collection, storage, or processing of your Personal Data with a data
protection supervisory authority in the country where you live or

will comply with your requests in accordance with, and subject to,
applicable law. For example, we are not required to delete your
Personal Data if we have an overriding legitimate ground for
retaining that information, such as to prevent fraud. Please note
that we are legally prohibited from carrying out requested actions in
some instances, including (1) when we are unable to confirm your
identity or (2) where doing so would adversely affect the rights or
freedoms of others. Further, we are not required to carry out a
requested action in some instances, including where the request is
considered excessive.

websites or online services and therefore do not respond to Do Not
Track signals. We are not aware of any third party that tracks users
of our Services over time and across third party websites or online

mechanism than the Global Privacy Control, a legally recognized
browser-based control that indicates whether you would like to opt
out of the processing of your Personal Data for certain purposes.
