IP Addresses

AdoreStudio Ltd may also collect your IP address for safety and security purposes. An IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer every time you log on to the Internet.

Log Files

Other non-personal information collected by AdoreStudio Ltd is in the form of log files that record website activity, including how many “hits” a particular web page is getting (a.k.a., “click-through data”).

Through the use of log files, we may also collect certain demographic information such as the type of browser you are using (e.g., Firefox, Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using (e.g., Windows 8 or Mac OS), and the domain name of your Internet service provider.

When you purchase Services on our website, we may collect certain payment information from you on behalf of our payment service providers, but this information is temporarily cached in a way that is unreadable by AdoreStudio. When you purchase items via our apps (such as those you can purchase in the App Store or on Google Play) we do not collect or store any payment information from you.

AdoreStudio Ltd is committed to protecting your privacy online. To further this commitment, we have adopted an Online Privacy Policy that guides how we collect, store, and use the information collected about you online.

How will AdoreStudio Ltd use your Personal Information?

You agree that we (or a supplier or group company acting on our behalf and only under our instructions) may use your Personal Information for the purposes of: contacting you, for example as part of customer service or to send you updates about our Services; managing your account and relationship with us and improving your experience when you use our Services; research, surveying, and engaging with you, for example by sending you communications (including by email) for these purposes; marketing and promotion of our Services or related products, for example sending you communications (including by email) for these purposes on our, or a third party’s behalf.

We may also need to pass your information to fraud prevention agencies and other organisations involved in crime and fraud prevention; and as otherwise expressly set out in this Privacy Policy or as required by law.

Interaction with third party social networks or platforms

We will only share your data with third parties (for example, our group companies or suppliers): with your consent (including as set out in this Privacy Policy); as reasonably necessary in order to provide the Services to you (for example, by providing your Personal Information to suppliers we may use to fulfil the Services or to communicate with you); where it is necessary to carry out your instructions (for example, to process a payment instruction we must provide your Personal Information to our payment processors); where your data is on an anonymous and aggregated basis, meaning you could not be personally identified from it; when you submit information as part of a competition or otherwise interact with our social media channels (for example, by providing a testimonial about one of our Services) we may publish the information you submitted, alongside your name and home country on our website and social media channels; as we reasonably believe is permitted by law or regulation; in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to enforce or apply our terms and conditions and/or any other agreement with you. We will not sell or rent your information to any third party outside of these circumstances.

You may allow our Services to interact with a third party social network or platform, which will provide data about you to us. These applications or websites are created and maintained by a third party which is not a part of, or controlled by AdoreStudio. You should ensure that you read their terms of service and privacy policies to understand how they treat your data and what data they might share with us.

You understand that where you allow your account with us to interact with any third party social network or platform, we may share data about you with your contacts (and vice versa) in order that you may enjoy playing socially. This data includes your name, your social media profile picture and your scores and/or progress in our games.

You can make changes to what data a third party social network or platform shares with us, or stop our Services interacting with that social network or platform by adjusting your settings with that third party provider, however you may find you are not able to enjoy all of the same features of our Services.

For how long will AdoreStudio Ltd retain your information?

We will retain your Personal Information for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected or as needed to provide you with Services. We may retain your Personal Information after you have closed any account you have with us or after we have ceased providing Services to you if retention of your Personal Information is reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations, meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes between members, prevent fraud, cheating or abuse, or enforce this Privacy Policy or any other agreement we may have with a user.

The protection of your Personal Information

The security of your Personal Information is important to us. We maintain appropriate technical and physical safeguards to protect your Personal Information against accidental or unlawful destruction or loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access, use and all other unlawful forms of processing of the data in our possession. We use the same level of skill in protecting your Personal Information as other similar games developers. However, since the internet is not a completely secure environment we cannot guarantee that information you transmit via our Games will not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed by breach of any of our safeguards.

Questions and Complaints

We hope that you won’t have any complaints about us or our Services. If you are unhappy with our use of your Personal Information then please contact our customer services department by emailing [email protected] You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority if there is a problem.

This Privacy Policy is governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of England. Any dispute arising in connection with this Privacy Policy will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England unless you choose the courts of your home country. We are constantly innovating and looking for new ways to improve our Services and our games. We may therefore amend this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect such improvements or any other changes to our business. Please check back from time to time to ensure that you are aware of these changes. If you object to any of the changes you should immediately stop using our Services.
