We do not share your contact details (such as your name, phone number, email, or postal address) with independent third parties without your knowledge, except for limited purposes as described in this Privacy Policy (such as enforcing the Terms of Use, securing the Services, or if we are required to do so by law or legal process). We do not sell your information.

We share personal information with third parties as described below:

Social media and gaming platforms. When you choose to bind, connect, or log in with your third-party social media or gaming platform account, the third-party service may receive information about how you interact with our Services in accordance with their own privacy policies. (For example, if you use an Xbox account to log in to one of our games, Microsoft may receive information that you logged into the game.) We do not control the privacy practices of these third parties, so please be sure to review the policies of any third-party services you use.
Service providers. We share your information with service providers who operate on our behalf for the purposes discussed above (see How We Use Personal Information). Service providers support our Services according to our instructions and are required to process information securely. (Examples of service providers include cloud services, payment processors, user research providers, and marketing and advertising networks.)
Related companies. We share your information with corporate affiliates and subsidiaries for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy.

To learn more about how we use cookies, or to opt out of the collection and use of cookies, please see the Cookie Policy applicable to the specific Service(s) that you are using.

Your browser may allow you to delete all cookies, allow cookies only from specific sites, or indicate when a cookie is being sent. Instructions on how to manage cookies in popular browsers are available at: Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari (iOS), Safari (Mac), and Opera. You may not disable necessary cookies as the site will not be able to function properly otherwise.

INFORMATION FOR PARENTS & GUARDIANS

Our Services are intended for a general audience. For certain Services that may appeal to younger players, we take measures to verify player ages, require verifiable parental consent for processing of children’s personal information, and implement high privacy-by-default settings to protect children’s privacy. These measures also include:

Providing Service-specific privacy notices to parents and guardians about what personal information we may collect, use, and disclose from their child.
Seeking verifiable parental consent to process a child’s personal information as required by law.
Limiting the processing of a child’s personal information to what is reasonably necessary to provide the Service(s).
Providing parental controls to enable visibility and granular control over a child’s privacy settings.
Providing privacy information specifically for younger players.

At any time, parents and guardians can withdraw permission for further processing of personal information from their child or ask us to delete the personal information we have collected in connection with their child’s account by contacting us at privacy@asmax2017.com.

If you think that your child is using a Service that processes their personal information without your consent, please contact us at privacy@asmax2017.com.

For the purpose of this section, “child” or “children” means a minor who is under the age of digital consent required by local applicable law. (For example, the age of digital consent in the UK is 13.)

REGIONAL INFORMATION

Additional Information for U.S. Residents

This section supplements the information above and further describes how we collect, use, and disclose personal information we collect about U.S. consumers who use our Services.

Our Collection & Use of Personal Information. As detailed above, we collect personal information for a range of different purposes, but the main reason we collect information is to provide and operate the Services. We collect the following categories of personal information:

Identifiers (contact information and unique personal identifiers, including username, privacy@asmax2017.com, IP address, device identifiers, and other similar identifiers);
Personal information as defined in California’s customer records law (such as contact information and – if you choose to provide it – physical characteristics or description);
Characteristics of protected classifications in the form of demographic information (date of birth / gender), if you choose to provide them;
Commercial information (purchase or consuming histories, tendencies, or preferences);
Internet or electronic network activity (information related to app, game, or website usage);
Approximate geolocation data (country / region);
Audio, electronic, visual, or similar information (such as profile photo, user-generated content, or voice chat);
Other “personal information” as defined under applicable law (such as your credit or debit card information);
Inferences drawn from any of these categories (for example, your city / country / region based on IP address); and
Sensitive personal information relating to account log-in combined with access credentials.

The section “How We Use Personal Information” describes the business and commercial purposes for collecting your personal information. The section “How We Share Personal Information” describes the third parties with whom we share personal information and for what purposes.

Your Rights. In addition to the privacy rights described in “Exercising Your Rights” above, you may have the following rights:

Right to Opt Out of Sale: You have the right to know whether we sell your data and to opt out of such sale if we do. We do not sell the personal information of our users.
Right to Opt Out of Sharing for Behavioral Advertising: You have the right to opt out of the sharing of your personal information for purposes of behavioral advertising. You may opt out of this sharing by contacting us via in-app customer service or email at privacy@asmax2017.com
Authorized Agents: Designate, in writing or through a power of attorney document, an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf to exercise your rights. Before accepting such a request from an agent, we will require that the agent provide proof you have authorized them to act on your behalf.

Certain browser plug-ins provide options for communicating opt-out preference signals, such as the Global Privacy Control (“GPC“). We treat GPC signals as a request to opt-out of targeted advertising or the “sharing” of personal information in relation to your browser or device that sends the GPC signal. If you are not logged into your account, the request through the GPC signal will not extend to any account information, as the connection between your browser or device and account is not known to us.

We do not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

We do not knowingly “sell” or “share” personal information of minors under 16 years of age.

Removal of Publicly-Posted Content. If you are a resident of California and a registered user of the Services, you may ask us to remove content or information that you have posted to the Services when you were under the age of 18 by emailing us at privacy@asmax2017.com or by contacting in-game customer service. Please note that your request does not ensure complete or comprehensive removal of the content or information, as, for example, some of your content may have been reposted by another user.
