Personally identifiable information (“PII”) is information that can be used to identify or contact you online or offline, such as your name, address, email, phone number, and payment information, or data that is linked to such identifiers. The Services may collect PII when it is provided to us, such as when you use our Services, attempt to contact us, submit an inquiry, apply for a job, or connect with us on social media or via one of our partners.
We may also create or collect device-identifiable information (“DII”), such as cookies, unique device and advertising identifiers, statistical identifiers, usernames, and similar identifiers that are linkable to a browser or device.

Our Services also collect information about your interactions, including navigation paths, search queries, crashes, timestamps, clicks and shares, and referral URLs. We may combine this data with PII and DII. For efficiency’s sake, information about your interactions may be transmitted to our servers while you are not using the Services.

1.2 Third Party Accounts
By setting up an account on the Services (an “Account”) via a third-party platform, i.e., Steam or the Epic Games Store (“Third-Party Platform”), you are choosing to share information between your Account, and your account on the Third-Party Platform. Through this option, you may choose to have PII and other content about you available from Third-Party Platforms transmitted and shared through the Services. Similarly, you may choose to have PII and other content about you available from your Account transmitted to and shared through the Third-Party Platform.
By setting your Account to interact with Third-Party Platforms, including by accessing your Account through your Third-Party Platform account, you agree to share information (including PII) between Company and such Third-Party Platform, for the purposes provided under this Policy.
The Third-Party Platform’s use of information, including PII, made available by Company is governed by that Third-Party Platform’s privacy policy and controlled by that Third-Party Platform, not by this Policy nor Company.
When you connect to the Third-Party Platform account through the Services for the first time or otherwise make the Services interact with your Third-Party Platform, account, you may be asked by the Third-Party Platform to permit the Third-Party Platform to share your PII stored on such Third-Party Platform with Company. We collect your PII from your Third-Party Platform account only in accordance with the permissions granted by you. Such PII may include your name, email address, list of friends, profile picture and other information available via the applicable Third-Party Platform. You understand and agree that the Services may access, make available and store such PII so that it is available on and through your Account, until your Account is deleted.
Please note that certain PII, which you have defined as private on your Third-Party Network accounts may become public to other users through the Services once you have allowed the Third-Party Platform to share such information with Company.

5. INFORMATION SECURITY
We work hard to protect our users from unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure, or destruction of information we hold and undertake reasonable security measures with appropriate confidentiality, integrity, and availability protections.

Like many other companies, we do not honor DNT flags but instead offer other choices with respect to third parties. Many third parties participate in self-regulation to offer you a choice regarding receiving targeted ads. Please note that you’ll still see generic ads after opting out depending on your browser and settings, but they won’t be based on your activities online. On the web, you can opt out of participating companies by visiting the following sites:
• http://optout.networkadvertising.org/
• http://optout.aboutads.info/
• http://youronlinechoices.eu/
• https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
• https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202074
If you wish to similarly opt out of cross-app advertising on mobile devices, you can enable the Limit Ad Tracking flag on the device. Enabling Limit Ad Tracking sends a flag to third parties that you wish to opt out of targeted advertising on that device, and major mobile platforms require companies to honor this flag. Screenshots on how to find these options on various devices are available here: http://www.networkadvertising.org/mobile-choices. To learn how to opt out on other devices, please visit the platform’s privacy policies for more information.
