Joyking GAMES
PRIVACY POLICY
Joyking Games and its websites, games and other
applications ("we," "our" or "us") believe that
your privacy is very important. This Policy outlines the types of personally
identifiable information and other data that we will collect from you through
the various websites, games and applications we provide
("Websites/Apps"), and how we will use and when we might disclose
such information and data to third parties. Your installation and/or use of
these Websites/Apps and/or submission of information to us constitute your
consent to this Privacy Policy and the processing of your information (personal
and non-personal) as described in this Policy. This Privacy Policy is effective
as of January 1, 2016 and was last modified on December 21, 2016.
There are two
types of information we may collect through your use of the Websites/Apps:
1.
“Personal
Information,” which is the type of information that specifically identifies
you personally and/or can be used alone to contact you online or offline, such
as your full name, physical address, email address, telephone number,
photograph, precise geolocation information (i.e., your specific location), Joyking player ID, credit card, and in some cases, usernames;
and
2.
“Non-Personal
Information,” which is information that does not identify you and cannot be
used to contact you personally, including information about you such as your
date of birth, age, non-precise geolocation information (e.g., your city), and
gender, as well as information about your computer and mobile device, such as
your unique device ID, Internet Protocol (IP) address, or other persistent
identifiers, and their hardware/software/firmware. Non-Personal Information
also includes “Usage Data,” which is anonymous data tied to your
computer and/or device, such as the actions you take within and outside of the
Websites/Apps, the browser you use, the identity of other apps included on your
device, the date and time of your use of the Websites/Apps, your game progress,
play time, score and achievements, and the URLs you visited and/or apps you
used before and after using our Websites/Apps.

Your Rights
We ask that you keep the Personal
Information that you provide to us current and that you correct any information
you have provided us by contacting us at shucndz@gmail.com. You represent and warrant that all Personal Information
you provide us is true and correct and relates to you and not to any other
person.
If you wish to opt out of further communications from us, or if you wish to
review, delete and/or revise the Personal Information we have stored about you,
please contact us with your specific request at shucndz@gmail.com; provided, however, that we reserve the right to retain

If you have previously consented to our

You can decline to permit cookies or other tracking technologies, but in that

If you use the Websites/Apps, you are
responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and for
restricting access to your computer or device, and you agree to accept
responsibility for all activities that occur under your account.
Children
Many of our Websites/Apps are intended for
general audiences, and we do not knowingly collect or use any Personal
Information from children under the age of 17. When users are identified as
under 17, we will block such users from providing Personal Information or make
sure to get prior parental consent before collecting Personal Information. To
the extent we feel that any of our Websites/Apps are directed to children under
the age of 17, we will not collect Personal Information from users of those
Websites/Apps.
If you are a parent of a child under 17 years
of age and you believe your child has provided us with Personal Information,
please contact us at shucndz@gmail.com and we will delete the information
from our system.
We may collect Non-Personal Information,
such as a device ID or other persistent identifier linked to the device or
computer, which may be used by a child to play our Websites/Apps.
The data collected will be anonymous and not tied to any Personal Information.
In addition, this data will be used solely for internal purposes such as
personalization of content, security, and contextual (not behavioral)
advertising.
Certain of our Websites/Apps may permit
in-game purchases, even if the applicable game was free to download. Such
purchases do not always require the re-entry of credit card information because
they may be made through an existing third-party account (such as an iTunes
account). If you are a parent who is concerned about this feature, you may
disable the ability to make in-game purchases by selecting the Settings tab for
the applicable Website/App, and following the necessary prompts to prohibit
such purchases.

We reserve the right to change this Privacy
Policy at any time. In the event we make material changes to this Privacy
Policy, such policy will be re-posted in the "Privacy" section of our
Websites/Apps with the date such modifications were made indicated on the top
of the page. Therefore, please review this Privacy Policy from time to time so
that you are aware when any changes are made to this Privacy Policy. Your
continued use of the Websites/Apps after such change constitutes your
acceptance of any such change(s), and if you do not accept any changes, you may
choose not to use the Websites/Apps or opt out by sending us an appropriate
notice. If you would like further information about any recent changes made,
please send your request to shucndz@gmail.com and include “Information about
Changes” in the subject line.
