Last revised: December 15, 2011

At FarSight, we recognize that privacy is important. This Policy applies to your use of the Pinball Arcade application on all platforms (the “Application”).

FarSight Studios (“FarSight,” “us” or “we”) has created this privacy policy (this “Policy”) to explain our privacy practices so you will understand what information about you is collected, used and disclosed with respect to the Application.

By using the Application, you consent to the privacy practices described in this Policy.

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify or otherwise alter this Policy at any time. You can find the most recent version of this Policy at www.www.pinballarcade.com, with the date of last modification noted above. Such modifications shall become effective immediately upon the posting thereof. Therefore, we encourage you to check the date of this Policy whenever you use the Application to check if they have been updated. You must review this Policy on a regular basis to keep yourself apprised of any changes. If you do not agree to the revised Policy, your sole recourse is to immediately stop all use of the Application. Your continued use of the Application following the posting of any modifications will constitute your acceptance of the revised Policy. Should you have any questions regarding the use of the Policy, please contact us at the contact information listed at the end of this Policy. Please note that none of our employees or agents has the authority to vary any of our Policies.

This Policy covers the Application. It does not cover any applications, websites, products or services that we do not control or own, or any third party features or services made available on the Application. All trademarks, trade names, and logos of third parties featured on the Application belong to their respective owners.

1. WHAT KIND OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect the following types of information below through your use of the Application.

Personal Information. “Personal Information” is information that identifies you or another person, which may be transmitted or received when you use the Application. Personal Information includes names, physical addresses, email addresses, telephone and fax numbers, files, content, photographs, and other information you transmit or receive using the Application which identifies you or another person.

We collect Personal Information if you provide it directly to us via email or the Application. We may collect Personal Information when you send us messages, comments, questions or suggestions or if you participate in blogs, forums, message boards, chat rooms, profile pages and other services to which you are able to post information, if any, related to the Application (collectively, “Forums”).

Non-Personal Information. “Non-Personal Information” is information that does not identify you or any other individual, and includes Session and Usage Data, Log Data and Aggregate Information, each as described below.

Session and Usage Data. “Session and Usage Data” is information about your use of the Application, and includes, without limitation, connection and service-related data submitted to us through your use of the Application. Session and Usage Data includes information relating to the connection request, server communication and data sharing, including network measurements, quality of service, and date, time and location. We also may aggregate Session and Usage data as described in Aggregate Information below. Please note that Session and Usage Data does not include any Personal Information.

Log Data. When you interact with us or use the Application, our systems may automatically collect your unique computer, cell phone or wireless device (collectively, “User Devices”) number, the IP address, type of browser or operating system you use, and the dates and times of your use (“Log Data”).

Aggregate Information. “Aggregate Information” is data we collect about a group or category of services or users from which individual user identities have been removed. In other words, information on how you use the Application may be collected and combined with information about how others use the Application, but no personally identifiable information will be included in the resulting Aggregate Information. Aggregate Information helps us understand trends in our users’ needs so that we can better consider new features or otherwise tailor the Application.

2. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

Personal Information. We may use your Personal Information:

  • to respond to your inquiries, fulfill your requests, provide services, or complete transactions you have requested.
  • to send you information regarding the Application, changes to our terms, conditions, and policies and/or other administrative information.
  • to resolve problems with the Application.
  • to create an individual profile and provide personalized services, and to create and inform you of new products and services from us that better meet your needs.
  • as we believe to be necessary or appropriate: (a) in any manner permitted under applicable law, including laws outside your country of residence; (b) to comply with legal process; (c) to respond to requests from public and government authorities, including public and government authorities outside your country of residence; (d) to enforce our terms and conditions; (e) to protect our operations; (f) to protect our rights, privacy, safety or property, and/or that of our affiliates, you or others; and (g) to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain.

Non-Personal Information. We may use Non-Personal Information for any purpose, including for our own internal purposes; to measure traffic patterns; to understand demographics, customer interest, and other trends among our users; to provide, improve and modify the Application; and for promotion and marketing purposes. In some instances, we may combine Non-Personal Information with Personal Information (such as combining your name with your unique User Device number). If we combine any Non-Personal Information with Personal Information, the combined information will be treated by us as Personal Information as long as it is combined.

We may display targeted advertisements based on Personal Information. Advertisers (including ad serving companies) may assume that people who interact with, view, or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria; for example, women ages 18-24 from a particular geographic area. We do not provide any Personal Information to the advertiser when you interact with or view a targeted ad. However, by interacting with or viewing an ad you are consenting to the possibility that the advertiser will assume that you meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad.

3. HOW YOUR INFORMATION MAY BE DISCLOSED

Personal Information. In general, we use Session and Usage Data internally to serve our users and enable them to take maximum advantage of the Application. We also store Personal Information to improve the functionality of the Application. All information collected is stored in our database and may be archived elsewhere.

  • to identify you to anyone to whom you send messages through the Application.
