 Cookies 

Automated Information Collection Technologies
As described below, when you access our Services, we collect certain technical information and may associate such information with your user or account ID number for our internal use.

Cookies

A "cookie" is a small text file that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. We may use cookies to track general, non-personal information about our users (e.g., user name, pages viewed, time spent on our Site(s), games, and the sites visited just before and just after our Site(s)) for statistical and market research purposes.

We use cookies to gather information about our users’ browser activities in order to constantly improve our Service. This information assists us to design and arrange our web pages in a most user-friendly manner and to continually improve our Service to better meet the needs of our customers, prospective customers, and visitors.

We may also use local shared objects known as "flash cookies", which help us to prevent fraud, remember your in-game settings and to track your progress on certain in-game tasks.

You have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you have the option to reject all cookies, or limit the type of cookies you allow. Flash cookies operate differently from browser cookies and cookie management tools available in a web browser will not remove flash cookies. To learn more about and manage flash cookies you can visit www.adobe.com. Rejecting or limiting the type of cookies may, however, in limited instances prevent you from accessing certain features on our Service.

Log Files

Like most Internet services, we may also use log files on the server side. The data held in log files includes your computer’s or Mobile Device’s IP (Internet Protocol) address, browser type, browser language, e-mail application, Internet service provider, referring/exit Web pages, computer platform type, date/time stamp, and user activity. Company uses server log data to analyze trends, administer the services offered through our Service. We and our third-party partners may use this information for product and service improvements, and in marketing and advertising services.

The software enabling our Services has associated log and temporary files that are stored on Company’s servers. These files store your account information, preference settings, system notifications as well as other data necessary to enable you to participate on our Service. Your information may also exist within regularly performed server backups.

Tracking Technologies

Our Services may utilize a variety of methods for tracking purposes, including web beacons (also known as Internet tags, pixel tags and clear GIFs). Web beacons are small pieces of data that are embedded in images on the pages of websites to analyze the traffic patterns, such as the frequency users visit various areas of our Services. Pixel tags may allow us to advertise more efficiently by excluding our current users from certain promotional messages or identifying the source of a new installation. These methods may involve transmitting information either directly to us or to another entity authorized by us to collect information on our behalf. We also use these technical methods in HTML e-mails that we send our guests to determine whether our guests have opened those e-mails or clicked on links in those e-mails. With web beacon technology, the information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally identifiable. It does not contain your name, address, telephone number, or email address.

Third Party Advertisers

Many advertisements are managed and placed on the service by third parties. These third-party advertisers may use cookies, web beacons or similar automated information collection technologies on your computer or Mobile Devices to help present, better target, and measure the effectiveness of their advertisements, by collecting non-personally identifiable information when you click on or move your cursor over one of their advertisements. We may share certain non-personally identifiable information about you as a user with certain third-party advertisers to help them deliver more relevant advertisements through their ad networks. In some cases, we may have access to information from cookies, web beacons and similar automated information collection technologies used by third party advertisers on our Services and this information may permit us to identify other sites or services that you have visited that are also associated with the third-party advertiser.

The use of cookies, web beacons, or similar automated information collection technologies by third party advertisers is subject to their own privacy policies. Finally, once you have clicked on an advertisement and have left the Service, our Privacy Policy no longer applies and you must read the privacy policy of the applicable third-party advertiser to see how your personal information will be collected, stored and used as part of their service.

Click Through URLs

Some of our Services, including email messages, use "click-through URLs" linked to other content on our Services. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in topics and use of the Services.
