If you choose to stop playing, You, as licensee, may terminate it at any time by removing all copies, full or partial, of the Game Software and removing all of its component parts.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIMITATION ON APPLICABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS OF A CONSUMER, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

9.0 CHOICE OF LAW AND JURISDICTION

THIS AGREEMENT, AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF YOU AND PLAYFUL CONCERNING THE GAME SOFTWARE, SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED UNDER TEXAS LAW AS SUCH LAW IS APPLIED TO AGREEMENTS BETWEEN TEXAS RESIDENTS ENTERED INTO AND TO BE PERFORMED WITHIN TEXAS, WITHOUT REGARD TO TEXAS’ CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES.

10.0 INTEGRATION

This EULA, Privacy Policy, Terms of Use, and Steam™ Subscriber Agreement represent the complete agreement between You and Us concerning the license and Your rights to use the Game Software, and supersedes all prior agreements and representations, warranties or understandings between You and Us (whether negligently or innocently made but excluding those made fraudulently), regarding the same subject matter. If any provision of this EULA is held to be unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions of this EULA shall remain in full force and not be affected.

11.0 ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief, for claims related to the Game Software, any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this EULA, including without limitation, any and all disputes, claims (whether in tort, contract, statutory or otherwise) or disagreements concerning the existence, breach, interpretation, application or termination of this EULA shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) then in effect. There shall be no right or authority for any claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis. The arbitration shall take place in Houston, Texas or at the option of the party seeking relief, online, by telephone, online, or via written submissions alone, and be administered by JAMS. The arbitral tribunal (“Tribunal”) shall be composed of one arbitrator, who shall be independent and impartial. If the parties fail to agree on the arbitrator within twenty (20) calendar days after the initiation of arbitration hereunder, JAMS shall appoint the arbitrator. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding on the parties. Judgment on any award(s) rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking immediate injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate. The parties undertake to keep confidential all awards in their arbitration, together with all confidential information, all materials in the proceedings created for the purpose of the arbitration and all other documents produced by the other party in the proceedings and not otherwise in the public domain, save and to the extent that disclosure may be required of a party by legal duty, to protect or pursue a legal right or to enforce or challenge an award in legal proceedings before a court or other judicial authority. The arbitrator shall award all fees and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, to the prevailing party. Any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

12.0 MISCELLANEOUS

If either party’s performance of any obligation under this EULA, except for the payment of money owed when due, is prevented or delayed by an event beyond such party’s reasonable control, that party will be excused from such performance to the extent it is necessarily prevented or delayed thereby.

Our failure to exercise or enforce in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Us of the same or any other right contained herein in the future. The provisions contained herein which would by their nature survive the termination or expiration of this EULA shall so survive.

We shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside Our reasonable control, including without limitation any failure to perform hereunder due to unforeseen circumstances or cause beyond Our control such as acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, strikes, or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.

Accordingly, this Privacy Policy is provided to explain our practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of information that we receive when you use our Services (as defined in our Terms of Service (the “Terms of Service”), accessible at https://creativersegame.com/legal.html). By using our Services or registering an Account, you hereby agree to this Privacy Policy. Playful reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy, in our sole discretion, at any time for any reason. This Privacy Policy applies only to those websites, services and applications included within our “Services” and doesn’t apply to any third-party websites, services or applications, even if they are accessible through our Services. Also, please note that, unless we define a term in this Privacy Policy, all capitalized words used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Service.

HOW DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION?
Our primary goals in collecting information are to provide and improve our Services, to administer use of the Services (including your Account, if you are an Account holder) and to provide you with an enjoyable use of our Services.

INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE
Account Information
When you create an Account we may collect certain information that can be used to identify you, such as your first name, surname, and email address (“Personally Identifiable Information” or “PII”). We may also collect certain information that is not PII because it cannot be used by itself to identify you, such as your country of residence. We may request additional information in the course of your use of the Services.

Community Participation
When you use the Services to communicate with other users, whether by public forum posting, “personal message,” in-game chat or other communication features available in the Games or community areas of our Site, such communications are transmitted and stored by us. These communications are considered public and there is no expectation of privacy. We may monitor such communications and, by using the communication services in our Games and/or community areas of our Site, you are indicating that you agree to such monitoring.

Note Regarding International Users
Your PII may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located in the United States. By providing us with your information, you are accepting and agreeing to that transfer.

NOTE REGARDING CHILDREN
Our Services are not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect PII from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected PII of a child under 13, we will take steps to delete such information from our files as soon as reasonably possible.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Information Collected Using Cookies
We collect certain information through the use of “cookies,” which are small text files that are saved by your browser when you access our Services via the Site. We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to identify that you’ve logged in to the Services and to tell us how and when you interact with our Services. We may also use cookies to monitor aggregate usage and web traffic routing on our Services in order to customize and improve our Services. Unlike persistent cookies, session cookies are deleted when you log off from the Services and close your browser. Although most browsers automatically accept cookies, you can change your browser options to stop automatically accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting cookies. Please note, however, that if you don’t accept cookies, you may not be able to access all portions or features of the Services. Some third-party service providers that we engage (including third-party advertisers) may also place their own cookies on your browser. Note that this Privacy Policy covers only our use of cookies and does not include use of cookies by such third parties.

Information Related to Use of the Services
Our servers automatically record certain information about how a person uses our Services via the Site, Apps, or Software (we refer to this information as “Log Data”), including both Account holders and non-Account holders (either, a “User”). Log Data may include information such as a User’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, operating system, the web page that a User was visiting before accessing our Services, the pages or features of our Services to which a User browsed and the time spent on those pages or features, search terms, the links on our Services that a User clicked on and other statistics. We use this information to administer the Services and we analyze (and may engage third parties to analyze) this information to improve and enhance the Services by expanding their features and functionality and tailoring them to our Users’ needs and preferences.

Location Information
In some cases we collect and store information about where you are located, such as by converting your IP address into a rough geolocation. We may use location information to improve and personalize our Services for you.

WHERE DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION?
Site
When you visit our Site, we collect PII that you submit to us when you register for an Account and as requested in connection with the Services. We also use cookies on our Site to collect Log Data.

Games
When you use our Apps and Software, we collect PII that you submit to us when you register for an Account and as requested in connection with the Services. We also use code within the Apps and Software to monitor our Games, including collection of certain Log Data. In addition, if you use our in-game communication tools, such communications are stored by us and can be monitored by us.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE SHARE WITH THIRD PARTIES?
We will not share any PII that we have collected from you except as described below:

Information Shared with Our Services Providers.
We may engage third party service providers to work with us to administer and provide the Services. The third-party service providers have access to your PII only for the purpose of performing services on our behalf and are expressly obligated not to disclose or use your PII for any other purpose.

Information Shared with Third Parties.
We may share aggregated information and non-identifying information with third parties for industry analysis, demographic profiling and other similar purposes.

Information Disclosed in Connection with Business Transactions.
Information that we collect from our Users, including PII, is considered to be a business asset. As a result, if we go out of business or enter bankruptcy or if we are acquired as a result of a transaction such as a merger, acquisition or asset sale, your PII may be disclosed or transferred to the third-party acquirer in connection with the transaction.

Information Disclosed for Our Protection and the Protection of Others.
It is our policy to protect you from having your privacy violated through abuse of the legal system, whether by individuals, entities or government, and to contest claims that we believe to be invalid under applicable law. However, it is also our policy to cooperate with government and law enforcement officials and private parties. Accordingly, we reserve the right to disclose any information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary: (i) to satisfy or comply with any applicable law, regulation or legal process or to respond to lawful requests, including subpoenas, warrants or court orders; (ii) to protect our property, rights and safety and the rights, property and safety of third parties or the public in general; and (iv) to prevent or stop activity we consider to be illegal or unethical.

Information We Disclose With Your Consent or at Your Request.
We will share your PII with third-party sites or platforms, such as social networking sites, if you have expressly requested that we do so.

THE SECURITY OF YOUR INFORMATION
We take reasonable measures to protect the information that we collect from or about you (including your PII) from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Please be aware, however, that no method of transmitting information over the Internet or storing information is completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of any information.

LINKS TO OTHER SITES
Our Services may contain links to other websites and services. Any information that you provide on or to a third-party website or service is provided directly to the owner of the website or service and is subject to that party’s privacy policy. Our Privacy Policy does not apply to such websites or services and we’re not responsible for the content, privacy or security practices and policies of those websites or services. To protect your information we recommend that you carefully review the privacy policies of other websites and services that you access.

ACCESSING AND MODIFYING YOUR INFORMATION
You can access and modify the PII associated with your Account by accessing your user profile on the Services. If you want us to deactivate your account, you can contact us at contactus@playfulstudios.com with your request. If you want us to delete your PII, you can contact us at contactus@playfulstudios.com with your request. We’ll take steps to delete your information as soon as is reasonably practicable, but some information may remain in archived/backup copies for our records or as otherwise required by law.

CHANGES TO PRIVACY POLICY
Any information that we collect is subject to the Privacy Policy in effect at the time such information is collected. We may, however, modify and revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we’ll notify you of such changes by posting them on the Services or by sending you an email or other notification, and we’ll indicate when such changes will become effective.
