What Personal Information About Customers Does FatFreeGames.com Gather?
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually
improve your experience at FatFreeGames.com. Here are the types of information
we gather.
- Information You Give Us:
We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, improving our site and communicating with you.
- Automatic Information:
We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites, we use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses FatFreeGames.com. A number of companies offer utilities designed to help you visit Web sites anonymously. Although we will not be able to provide you with a personalized experience at FatFreeGames.com if we cannot recognize you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.
- Information from Other Sources:
We might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our account information.
What About Cookies?
- Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide features such as storage of scores and other information.
- The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, cookies allow you to take full advantage of some of FatFreeGames.com's coolest features, and we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Member Accounts, Passwords, and Invitations
You are responsible for keeping the confidentiality of your Member ID and password. FatFreeGames representatives will never ask you for your password.
Does FatFreeGames.com Share the Information It Receives?
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. We share customer information only as described below.
- Agents: We may employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
- Promotional Offers: Sometimes we send offers or announcements to selected groups of FatFreeGames.com users. These offers and announcements will only be for FatFreeGames.com related items and activities.
- Protection of FatFreeGames.com and Others: We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of FatFreeGames.com, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
- With Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
- Any information we collect will be securely stored and processed in a database that resides in the United States.
- It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
Which Information Can I Access?
FatFreeGames.com will give you access to a broad range of information about your account and your interactions with FatFreeGames.com for the limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases, updating that information as our Web site evolves.
What Choices Do I Have?
- As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide information, even though it might be needed to make a purchase or to take advantage of specific FatFreeGames.com features.
- If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please visit http://www.fatfreegames.com/main/edit_settings.
