Please note that over time, non-personal information may become personal information due to regulatory developments, technological advancements, or the co-mingling of personal and non-personal information. In particular, we collect the following information from and about you (automatically collect from the Game):
  • Account information. When you play the Game through Steam, we may collect your Steam account identity, in connection with other information outlined below. For clarity, “Steam” means the game distribution platform operated by Valve Corporation (https://store.steampowered.com/).
  • Device information. When you play the game on your device, we may collect information about your device, including, but not limited to, manufacturer name, model name, model number, international mobile equipment identifier (IMEI), operating system, language used on your device, IP address, UDID, and MAC address;
  • Usage information. When you play the Game, we may collect information, including, but not limited to login dates, login times, and progress status of the Game;
You have choices about the information we collect. When you are asked to provide personal information, you may decline. However, if you choose not to provide information that is necessary to provide the Game, you may not be able to use some of the features of the Game.

I-(2)
If you contact us for any inquiry about the Game, we might ask you to give us your information (for example, your name, your e-mail address and any other information that is necessary for processing your inquiry). With regard to such information, we will try to explain the detail about what we need and why we need, when we ask you to give. In this case, we will use such information only for the purpose of processing your inquiry.

II. Collection of Personal Information from Children
We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 13 or knowingly allow such persons to use the Game. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 13, we will delete that information without undue delay.

We may share or disclose your personal information in the following instances and to the following parties:
  • Our contractors and service providers, for the purpose of operating our business and providing our services;

For example, we may use your email address to send you information about changes to our services and other disclosures as required by law. To the extent the applicable laws permit, generally, users cannot opt-out of these communications, but they will be primarily informational in nature rather than promotional.

VI. Third-Party Websites
This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected through the Game. The Game may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these other websites. If you have any questions about how these other websites use your information, you should review their policies and/or contact them directly.

VII. Public Posting Area
Please note that any information you include in a message you post to any public posting area, such as a chat room, is available to anyone with Internet access. Therefore, we strongly recommend you not to post your personal information (for example, your e-mail address) to such public posting area. PLEASE BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN DISCLOSING ANY INFORMATION IN CHAT ROOMS, FORUMS AND OTHER PUBLIC POSTING AREAS. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE USE BY OTHERS OF THE INFORMATION THAT YOU DISCLOSE IN CHAT ROOMS, FORUMS AND OTHER PUBLIC POSTING AREAS.

VIII. International Data Transfers
If you choose to provide us with personal information, it will be stored in Japan, USA and/or may be stored in other jurisdictions. DMM may transfer that information to its affiliates and subsidiaries, across borders, and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world. If you are using the Game in the European Union or other regions with laws governing data collection and use, please note that your personal information is transferred to Japan and may be transferred to other jurisdictions. Japan and these other jurisdictions may not have the same data protection laws as the European Union and may not afford many of the rights conferred upon data subjects in the European Union. By providing your personal information you consent to:
  • The use of your personal information for the uses identified above in accordance with this Privacy Policy; and
  • The transfer of your personal information to Japan as indicated above.

IX. Security
No data transmissions over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you understand that any information that you transfer to DMM is done at your own risk. DMM specifies rules for the protection of personal information, and incorporates appropriate administrative, technical, organizational and physical security measures that are required under applicable regulations. However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed by breach of secure server software.

If we learn of a security systems breach, we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. By using the Game or providing personal information to us, you agree that we can communicate with you electronically regarding security, privacy and administrative issues relating to your use of the Game. We may post a notice on the Game if a security breach occurs. We may also send an email to you at the email address you have provided to us in these circumstances. Depending on where you live, you may be entitled to receive written notice of a data security breach.

X. Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate
By using the Game, you and we agree that, if there is any controversy, claim, action, or dispute arising out of or related to your use of the Game, or the breach, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of this Privacy Policy or any part of it (“Dispute”), both parties shall first try in good faith to settle such Dispute by providing written notice to the other party describing the facts and circumstances of the Dispute and allowing the receiving party thirty (30) days in which to respond to or settle the Dispute. Notice shall be sent to:
  • Us, at 24F Roppongi Grand Tower, 3-2-1, Roppongi, Minato-ku Tokyo, Japan, or
  • You, at the address we have on file for you.

Both you and we agree that this dispute resolution procedure is a condition precedent that must be satisfied before taking any legal action or filing any claim against the other party. IF ANY DISPUTE CANNOT BE RESOLVED BY THE ABOVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE, YOU AGREE THAT THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION FOR SUCH DISPUTE WILL BE DECIDED BY BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE, AND YOU WAIVE, THE RIGHT FOR A JUDGE OR JURY TO DECIDE YOUR CLAIMS, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. Other rights that you and we would otherwise have in court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including discovery and appeal rights. All such disputes shall be exclusively submitted to JAMS (https://www.jamsadr.com/) for binding arbitration under its rules then in effect, before one arbitrator to be mutually agreed upon by both parties.

The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising under or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Privacy Policy, including any claim that all or any part of this Privacy Policy is void or voidable.
