PRIVACY POLICY
Effective Date: June 5, 2019
Introduction
FUERO Games Sp. z o. o. ("FUERO GAMES")
develops and publishes social games for the web and mobile devices (the
"Service"). In this policy, "FUERO GAMES" refers to FUERO
GAMES and its Affiliates, which shall mean subsidiaries, parent companies,
joint ventures and other corporate entities under common ownership. We may also
refer to FUERO GAMES as "We" or "Us".
This Privacy Policy describes:
If you access our games from a third party Social
Networking Site ("SNS"), you may be required to also read and accept
the SNS Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Information We Collect
Information about You Received from an SNS
When you use any FUERO GAMES game at an SNS such as
Facebook, Google +, etc., where our games may also be referred to as
"applications", you allow FUERO GAMES to access certain information
from your profile for that site. The information you allow FUERO GAMES to
access varies by game and SNS, and it is affected by the privacy settings you
and your friends establish at the SNS. You can control and find out more about
these settings at the SNS where you play our games. For example, FUERO GAMES
may access and store some or all of the following information, as allowed by
you, the SNS and your preferences:
By playing a FUERO GAMES game through an SNS, you are authorizing
FUERO GAMES to collect, store, and use in accordance with this Privacy Policy
any and all information that you agreed the SNS could provide to FUERO GAMES
through the SNS Application Programming Interface ("API")
Information We Collect from You Directly
When you interact with the Service (whether or not on
an SNS), at http://www.winionsgame.com/ or any FUERO GAMES-owned website,
We may collect and store information from you directly as described below:
Registration Information
We may allow you to "register" with Us by
using Facebook Connect or other SNS authentication options to create an account
or profile within the Service. We may also provide a more typical registration
flow where you may be required to provide the following information: your age
or birthday (for age screening and/or to better understand who our users are);
your first and last names; your e-mail address; a password and other
information that helps Us confirm that it is you accessing your account.
We may also offer you the option to complete a user
profile that is visible to other FUERO GAMES users. Your user profile may
include: a profile photo; one or more game username(s); your gender; biographic
details that you provide; links to your profiles on various SNS; details about
the games you play; and a FUERO GAMES user ID number that is created by FUERO
GAMES and used to identify your profile.
The FUERO GAMES user ID number used to identify your
account and profile will be public and will appear in the URL of your profile
page, but will only permit access to information that is considered public or
that you have designated as public in your settings.
Your first and last names and profile picture are
considered "public" on FUERO GAMES websites that offer direct access
to FUERO GAMES games and search engines may index
this publicly available information. When We offer profiles, We will also offer
functionality that allows you to opt-out of public indexing of your public
profile information.
Information We Receive or Collect When You Access
FUERO GAMES Games on a Mobile Device
If you play FUERO GAMES games
on your mobile telephone or other mobile device, including iPads and tablets,
We collect mobile device identifiers, including MAC Address, and IP Address. In
certain games We will create and assign to your device an identifier that is
similar to an account number. We may collect the name you have associated with
your device, device type, telephone number, country, and any other information
you choose to provide, such as user name, character name, geo-location or
e-mail address. We may also access your contacts to enable you to invite
friends to join you in the Service.
Payment Information
If you purchase a license to use in-game virtual
currency or virtual items directly from FUERO GAMES, We will collect the
billing and financial information necessary to process your charges, which may
include your postal and e-mail addresses. FUERO GAMES may also receive the
billing and payment information that you provide when your purchase is
processed by another party, such as Facebook (for Facebook Credits) or Apple
(for purchases on iOS devices). Our Terms of Service explain our policies and
terms relevant to our charges and billing practices. Please note that purchases
of third party credits or currencies like Facebook Credits may also be subject
to additional policies.
Customer Support Correspondence
When you ask for assistance from our Customer Support
team, We will collect and store the contact information you provide (generally
your name and e-mail address), information about your game play or activity on
the Service, and your user ID number. We will also store the correspondence and
any information contained within.
SMS Notifications, Push Notifications & Local
Notifications
We receive and store the information you provide,
including your telephone number, when you sign up to have SMS notifications
sent directly to your mobile phone. These messages notify you of in-game
activity and may allow you to play the game from your phone. You can adjust the
types of notifications you receive and when you receive them by editing your
SMS notification settings; just log in to your game account and choose SMS
mobile from the Help menu.
With your consent We may send push notifications to
your mobile device to provide game updates and other relevant messages. You can
manage push notifications from the "options" or "settings"
page within the relevant game. You may also be able to manage them from your
device’s settings page for the relevant game.
We may send local notifications to your mobile device
to provide game updates and other relevant information. You can manage local
notifications from the "options" or "settings" page within
the relevant game.
Technical and Usage Information
When you access our websites or play our games, We
collect (i) certain technical information about your
mobile device or computer system, including MAC Address, IP Address and mobile
device ID; and (ii) usage statistics about your interactions with the Service.
This information is typically collected through the use of server log files or
web log files ("Log Files"), mobile device software development kits
and tracking technologies like browser cookies to collect and analyze certain types
of technical information. Some of the cookies the Service places on your
computer are linked to your user ID number(s). For more information on how We
utilize cookies and other tracking technologies please review the "Cookies
and Automated Information Collection" portion of Section 3 ("How We
Collect Information about You").
How We Collect Information about You
We may collect information about you in any one or
more of the following ways:
Information about Players and Play
When you play one of our games, FUERO GAMES collects
and stores certain information that you provide directly or through the SNS or
other third party website that is offering our game(s). To provide a richer
game play and social experience, We also collect information about your play
and interaction with other players and the Service. The bulk of this
information is collected and stored through the use of Log Files, which are
files on our web servers that record actions taken on our games and websites.
Communications Features
You may be able to take part in certain activities on
our websites or games that give you the opportunity to communicate or share
information not just with FUERO GAMES, but also with other users of our
Service. These include:
We may record and store archives of these
communications on FUERO GAMES's servers to protect the safety and well being of our users and FUERO GAMES's rights and
property in connection with the service. You acknowledge and consent to the
recording and storage of such communications for these purposes.
Cookies and Automated Information Collection
When you access the Service, We collect certain
technical information in order to (i) analyze the
usage of our sites and services; (ii) provide a more personalized experience;
and (iii) manage advertising. We and service providers acting on our behalf,
such as Google Analytics, use Log Files and tracking technologies to collect
and analyze certain types of technical information, including cookies, IP
addresses, device type, device identifiers, browser types, browser language,
referring and exit pages, and URLs, platform type, the number of clicks, domain
names, landing pages, pages viewed and the order of those pages, the amount of
time spent on particular pages, game state and the date and time of activity on
our websites or games, and other similar information. In some cases, We will
associate this information with your user ID number for our internal use.
We may also employ other technologies including (i) web beacons, which allow Us to know if a certain page
was visited or whether an e-mail was opened; (ii) tracking pixels, which allow
Us to advertise more efficiently by excluding our current users from certain
promotional messages, identifying the source of a new installation or delivering
ads to you on other websites; and (iii) local shared objects also known as
flash cookies, which help Us to prevent fraud, remember your in-game
preferences and speed up load times.
You can set your web browser to warn you about
attempts to place cookies on your computer or limit the type of cookies you
allow. Flash cookies operate differently than browser cookies and cookie
management tools available in a web browser may not remove flash cookies. To
learn more about and manage flash cookies you can visit adobe.com and make
changes at the privacy settings panel. If you disable cookies, you may lose
some of the features and functionality of playing our games, as FUERO GAMES
cookies are necessary to track and enhance your game activities. Please note
that companies delivering advertisements in our games or on our websites may
also use cookies or other technologies, and those practices are subject to
their own policies.
Other Sources
We may collect or receive information from other
sources including (i) other FUERO GAMES users who
choose to upload their email contacts; and (ii) third party information
providers. This information will be used to supplement your profile - primarily
to help you and your friends connect. It will be combined with other
information We collect.
How We Use the Information We Collect
In general, We collect, store and use your information
to provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. For
example, We may use information collected from you in any one or more of the
following ways:
One important use of your information is
communication. If you have provided your e-mail address to FUERO GAMES, We'll
use it to respond to (i) customer support inquiries,
and (ii) keep you informed of your in-game activity, including comments from
friends, notifications about in-game status. Some messages, such as invites for
friends to join you in a game, may include your name and profile photo. We may
also send promotional e-mail messages and promotional SMS messages
("Promotional Communications") directly or in partnership with
parties other than FUERO GAMES. Each Promotional Communication will generally
offer recipients choices about receiving additional messages.
Sharing of Your Information
We will share your information (in some cases personal
information) with third parties, that is parties other than FUERO GAMES, in the
following circumstances:
Third Party Service Providers
We will provide your information to third party
companies to perform services on our behalf, including payment processing, data
analysis, e-mail delivery, hosting services, customer service and to assist Us
in our marketing efforts. We direct all such third party service providers to
maintain the confidentiality of the information disclosed to them and to not
use your information for any purpose other than to provide services on FUERO
GAMES's behalf.
Friends and Other FUERO GAMES Players
The Service supports and may encourage interaction
among players. In most FUERO GAMES games your SNS
friends will see your name, profile photo and descriptions of your game
activity. In many FUERO GAMES games friends and other
players will be able to see your game profile, which may include your name or a
"game name" and your profile photo, which in certain cases can reveal
your SNS User ID number or FUERO GAMES ID. For example, in FUERO GAMES Poker
any other player may encounter your game profile, if you are playing at the
same table. Access to a FUERO GAMES ID or your SNS User ID may allow others to
view the public information associated with your related SNS or FUERO GAMES
account. Other players may also be able to send you game requests or even
friend requests through the related SNS' communication channels.
Advertising of Third Party Products and Services
We do not actively share personal information with
third party advertisers for their direct marketing purposes unless you give Us
your consent.
We may share (i) aggregated
information (information about you and other users collectively, but not
specifically identifiable to you); (ii) anonymous information; and (iii)
certain technical information (including IP Addresses, MAC Addresses for mobile
devices and mobile device IDs) to develop and deliver targeted advertising in
the Service and on the websites of third parties. We may also allow advertisers
to collect these types of information within the Service and they may share it
with Us. Advertisers may collect this information through the use of tracking
technologies like browser cookies and web beacons. The information collected may
be used to offer you targeted ad-selection and delivery in order to personalize
your user experience by ensuring that advertisements for products and services
you see will appeal to you, a practice known as behavioral advertising, and to
undertake web analytics (i.e. to analyze traffic and other end user activity to
improve your experience).
Our collection, use, and disclosure of anonymous or
aggregated information are not subject to any of the restrictions in this
Privacy Policy.
Offer Walls
FUERO GAMES games or their
purchase pages may display an "offer wall" that is hosted by an offer
wall provider. The offer wall allows third party advertisers to provide virtual
currency to users in exchange for interacting with an advertisement or for
completing a marketing offer that may include signing up for an account with
one of those advertisers. These are not offers made by FUERO GAMES. These
offers may be displayed to you based on certain technical information, such as
your geographic area or anonymous demographic information. After clicking on
one of these advertisements, you will no longer be on a site hosted by FUERO
GAMES or a partnering SNS. To properly credit user accounts and to prevent
fraud, a unique identifier, in some cases your user ID number, will be shared
with the offer wall provider.
Safety, Security and Compliance with Law
Your information, and the contents of all of your
online communications (including without limitation chat text, voice
communications, IP addresses and your personal information) may be accessed and
monitored as necessary to provide the Service and may be disclosed: (i) when We have a good faith belief that We are required to
disclose the information in response to legal process (for example, a court
order, search warrant or subpoena); (ii) to satisfy any applicable laws or
regulations (iii) where We believe that the Service is being used in the
commission of a crime, including to report such criminal activity or to
exchange information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of
fraud protection and credit risk reduction; (iv) when We have a good faith
belief that there is an emergency that poses a threat to the health and/or
safety of you, another person or the public generally; and (v) in order to
protect the rights or property of FUERO GAMES, including to enforce our Terms
of Service.
Sale or Merger
In the event that FUERO GAMES undergoes a business
transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or
a portion of its assets, We may transfer all of your information, including
personal information, to the successor organization in such transition. If
material changes to FUERO GAMES's privacy practices will occur as a result of
the business transition, We will notify you and other users (in the manner
described in Section 12) of the business transition prior to transferring your
personal information.
Our Policies Concerning Children
Our websites and games are not intended for children
under the age of 13 and We do not knowingly collect any personal information
from such children. Children under the age of 13 should not use our websites or
games at any time. In the event that We learn that We have inadvertently
gathered personal information from children under the age of 13, We will take
reasonable measures to promptly erase such information from our records.
How to Access and Update Your Information
Information We Receive From an SNS Where You Play Our
Games

instructions at that site for updating your information and changing your
privacy settings. The privacy management tools for applications on Facebook can
be found here. The privacy
management tools for Google + can be found here. You can manage
certain aspects of information collection and use by going to the settings of
your (mobile) device and reviewing the permissions of each application.
Once FUERO GAMES receives your information from an
SNS, that information is stored and used by FUERO GAMES in accordance with this
Privacy Policy, and you may access and update that information as described
below. Game or other accounts created with FUERO GAMES are considered active
until We receive a user request to delete them or deactivate them.
Other Methods of Accessing and Controlling your

Your Sharing and Messaging Options
Information We Receive from Third Party SNS Where You
play a FUERO GAMES Game
If you play our games at a third-party SNS, FUERO
GAMES will be able to access and store profile and other information about you
as described above. The categories of information you share with Us will
depend, in part, on the permissions you grant Us and the privacy settings you
have established at the SNS where you access the application. FUERO GAMES does
not offer an "opt out" option for specific fields that are shared by
the SNS where you access and play the game(s).
Opting out of Promotional Communications
You can choose to opt out of receiving additional
promotional e-mails from FUERO GAMES by clicking on the "unsubscribe"
link in any such e-mail, or visiting the e-mail preference page. Please note
that once We receive your request, it may take an additional period of time for
your opt-out to become effective. Your unsubscribe or e-mail preference change
will be processed promptly, and in no event longer than 10 business days.
Opting Out of Other Communications
You can opt out of receiving SMS messages by texting
STOP to the number We send from for that particular SMS program. In some cases
a preference management page will also be available under the "Help"
menu of the game that is offering the SMS program. When We receive an opt-out
message from you for SMS messages, We may send a message confirming our receipt
of your opt-out.
When you install our apps on your mobile device you
can choose to receive push notifications. You can turn off push notifications by
visiting the "options" or "settings" page within the
relevant game. You may also receive local notifications. You can turn off local
notifications by visiting the "options" or "settings" page
within the relevant game.
Note that if you opt-out of our Promotional
Communications or other forms of communication, We may still e-mail or
communicate with you from time to time if We need to provide you with
information or if We need to request information from you with respect to a
transaction initiated by you or for other legitimate non-marketing reasons.
Privacy Policies of Linked Sites and Advertisers
Our websites and games may contain advertisements from
companies other than FUERO GAMES that may link to their own websites. We are
not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites. If
you have any questions about how these other websites use your information, you
should review their policies and contact them directly.
Security of Your Information
FUERO GAMES implements reasonable security measures to
protect the security of your information both online and offline, and We are
committed to the protection of customer information.
For user accounts registered directly with FUERO GAMES
profile information is protected by the password each member uses to access
their online account. It is important that you protect and maintain the
security of your account and that you immediately notify Us of any unauthorized
use of your account. If you forget the password to your FUERO GAMES account,
the website allows you to request that instructions be sent to you that explain
how to reset your password. When you sign into your account or enter payment
information (such as a credit card number when purchasing virtual currency), We
encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket layer
technology ("SSL").
While We take reasonable precautions against possible
security breaches of our websites and our customer databases and records, no
website or Internet transmission is completely secure, and We cannot guarantee
that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never
occur. We urge you to take steps to keep your personal information safe
(including your account password), and to log out of your account after use. If
your SNS account is hacked, this may lead to unauthorized play of your FUERO
GAMES games, so be careful to keep your account
information secure. If you have questions about the security of our websites,
please contact Us at support@fuerogames.com
Unfortunately, the transmission of information over
the Internet is not completely secure. Although We strive to protect your
personal data, We cannot guarantee the security of your data while it is being
transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once We have
received your information, We have procedures and security features in place to
try to prevent unauthorized access.
Changes to Our Privacy Policy
If We decide to make material changes to our Privacy
Policy, We will notify you and other users by placing a notice on FUERO
GAMES.com or by sending you a notice to the e-mail address We have on file for
you. We may supplement this process by placing notices in our games and on
other FUERO GAMES websites. You should periodically check www.FUEROGAMES.com and this privacy page for updates.
Contact Us
If you have any questions, comments or concerns
regarding our Privacy Policy and/or practices, please send an e-mail to: support@fuerogames.com All
other inquiries should be directed to FUERO GAMES's Support Page.
