We may also use information to ensure that Our Users are in compliance with our Terms. We do not retain any Personal Information beyond the time it is needed.

(c) Information we share

We do not share Your Googami Account information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of the Company unless one of the following circumstances apply:

With Your consent

We will share Your Googami Account information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of the Company when We have your consent to do so. We also share Your Information to third party games that use Googami Account login system. We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any Personal Information.

We share Personal Information with companies, organizations or individuals, outside the Company, if We have a reasonable belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:

  • meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request (including legal requests from jurisdictions outside of Hong Kong)
  • enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; or

III. Our Websites and other websites

(a) About Our Websites

Our Websites use a single-login system that let You connect among the Websites, including games and social interaction. In this way, We can provide You with a personalized experience on the Websites.

You are reminded that the links contained or included in Our Websites and Services may direct You to third party websites and they are created and maintained by other businesses and developers who are not part of the Company, so it is important that You read their terms of service and privacy policies as this is Your responsibility.

(b) Logging in to another website using Googami Account

In some circumstances, You may be able to log into third party websites using Googami Account identity. This means that You have the possibility to use the default Googami Account identities or create new ones to log in to third party websites. You can determine under which identity You want to access third party websites. When You log in using Googami Account, Your account information will never be transferred to the third party website without Your consent (Section II (c)). In order for third party websites to uniquely identify Your account among other accounts, We send a unique identifier named ‘PID’ (personal identification). Your PID is different for each third party website so as to preserver your anonymity.

Be aware that there is a probability that third party websites, games or services may require from You different information than the one in the fields you have chosen to fill for Your Googami Account identity. For instance, You have filled in Your name and country but the third party website requires You to provide Your nickname as well. The extra information required may vary from one third party website, game or service to another. Once you do so, the extra information provided will be automatically added to the identity you have accessed that website with. As a result, all the websites linked to that identity will also benefit from that additional information. Nonetheless, You are able to view which third party website has access to which information You provided by going on the “Sites” section of Your Googami Account.

If You already have an account on a third party website, that website may also allow You to connect and link it to Your Googami Account. Your information will be sent to Us when You use Your Googami Account to register or login to a third party website.

(c) Privacy Practices of Third Parties

This privacy statement only addresses the use and disclosure of information by Us through Your interaction with Our Websites and Services. Other websites that may be accessible from Our Websites may have their own privacy statements and Personal Information collection, use and disclosure practices. For instance, and purely as an example, some websites require an over eighteen (18) years of age access.

We are not responsible for the privacy policies, practices or content of Third party websites. Please be advised that the practices described in this Privacy Policy do not apply to information gathered through other websites. When You leave the Website, the privacy policies and practices of that other website apply; We encourage You to be aware of those privacy policies and practices when You are on those other websites and submitting personally identifiable information. You are responsible for reviewing the privacy policies and practices of each and every site that You visit.

IV. Cookies and other technologies

Our Websites and Service may use cookies and other technologies. This collection of data is used for statistical analysis about Our Websites for analytical purposes. These technologies help Us better understand user behavior, tell Us which parts of Our Websites people have visited, and facilitate and measure the effectiveness of advertisements and web searches. We treat information collected by cookies and other technologies as non‑personal information.

Any information shared or known to Us will not and cannot be used to identify Your identity as they are non-specific. They are merely mathematical or analytical data about Our visitors and their use on Our Websites. The data does not give out any personal details. Cookies may be used to gather this general internet data. When used, cookies are downloaded to Your computer without prompting. The cookie file is stored on Your hard drive, where files are transferred to. This information helps Us improve Our Websites and services provided to You. If you want to disable cookies, please consult the relevant guidelines of the browser that You use and adjust the relevant browser settings. Please note that some features of the Websites may not be available once cookies are disabled.

Due to the communication standards on the Internet, when You visit the Website We automatically receive the URL of the site from which You came and the site to which You are going when You leave the Website. We also receive Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type and language, Internet service provider (ISP), referring and exit websites and applications, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.

We may use this information for marketing and advertising purposes.

V. Protection of Personal Information

We take the security of your Personal Information very seriously. We work hard to protect the Website and Our users from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of information within Our control.

In particular:

  • We encrypt many of Our services using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
  • We review Our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems.
  • We restrict access to Personal Information to the Company’s employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to process it for Us, and who are subject to contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.

Data you provide Us with will be stored on secure servers. We take all reasonable steps to ensure the safety of the data transfer in agreement with this Policy. Transmission of data via the Internet is never completely secure, thus a guarantee of data sent electronically or transmitted cannot be given. Information offered is therefore at Your own risk.

We use a reasonably secure method to destroy Personal Information.

VI. Accessing and changing your Personal Information

You can access and change any Personal Information You provided to Us in registration through Your Googami Account page.

We might need to verify that You are in fact the data subject before We can proceed with such a request.

Sometimes We may not be able to process a request to change your Personal Information due to technical or other reasons. We will inform You when this is the case. You are then advised to delete Your current Googami Account and open a new one.

Please note that correcting information from Your Googami Account, i.e. changes You have made to any information, will automatically apply to all the linked websites to that Googami Account and identity.

Children under the age of 13, or equivalent minimum age in the relevant jurisdiction, are not permitted to create their own Googami Account, unless their parent or legal guardian provided verifiable consent.

If We learn that We have collected the Personal Information of a child under 13, or equivalent minimum age depending on jurisdiction, without his/her parent’s or legal guardian’s consent, We will take steps to delete the information as soon as possible.

If the User is a minor, i.e. under the age of 18, his/her parent or legal guardian can request access, change or delete of the Personal Information We have, or refuse to allow any further reception or use of the information by a written letter to Us at [email protected].

In order to protect the Users’ privacy and security, reasonable steps will be taken to verify the parent’s or legal guardian’s identity before granting access to the Personal Information. Therefore, it is very important to include, in Your letter, Your email address as well as a telephone number where we can reach you.
