I.INFORMATION WE COLLECT

  • We may collect through the Service both personal information that identifies you and can be used to contact you, and non-personal information, which is data in a form that does not allow direct association with you, which may include technical information, such as the IP address through which you are accessing the Service and the unique mobile device ID or virtual unique device identifier for any mobile device you may be using.
  • A.Personal Information
  • Personal information may include, but is not limited to, your name, e-mail address, physical mailing address, telephone number, date of birth, and any personal photo or image representation. We will collect, use and disclose personal information only as described in this Privacy Policy.
  • For users in the EEA, the legal basis for collection of this information is to provide you with the Services.
  • Please note that some non-personal information would be considered a part of your personal information if it were combined with other information in a way that enables you to be identified, but the same information is considered non-personal information when taken alone or combined only with other non-personal information.
  • B.Non-Personal Information
  • Non-personal information, alone, cannot be used to identify or contact you. CyberStep collects non-personal information about your use of Service and includes aggregated information regarding usage of the Service. The non-personal information collected may include information related to your mobile device or computer system, including mobile device type, IP address, unique mobile device ID or other device identifiers, Media Access Control (MAC) address, telephone number of mobile device, country of registration (together, “Device Information”). It may also include browser type, language, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referring and exit pages, time spent, information searched for, time and date stamp, clickstream data, feature usage, game play statistics, scores and achievements, user rankings, time spent playing our games, and other statistics.
  • CyberStep also collects login information, user ID and other information from any SNS that you may use to access the Service, or that you may interact with through the Service, as described in more detail under the subsection below “Interaction with SNS’s”.
  • Subject to applicable law, non-personal information may be used and shared by CyberStep in its discretion, and is not restricted by this Privacy Policy.

II.HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

  • Generally, we use your information to provide you with an efficient and customized experience. For example, we may use information in the following ways:
    ・To send to you any physical prizes that you have requested we deliver to you, and to communicate with you about sending the prizes.
    ・To send important notices, such as communications about your purchases and changes to our Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy;
    ・To send “push” notifications to your mobile device regarding the Service (for example, suggesting that you open the Service to take certain actions);
    ・To provide in-game information regarding player achievements, such as leader boards;
    ・To allow us to enable you to reset your password if you have forgotten it;
    ・To provide technical support and respond to inquiries from you;
    ・To prevent fraud and potentially illegal activities and enforce our Terms of Service; and
    ・To help us to develop, deliver and improve the Service.
  • For users in the EEA, the legal basis for processing of the above personal information is to provide you with the Service you have requested.
  • Additionally, we may use your information to promote the Service and additional products or services, including:
    ・To inform you about new CyberStep products and services and promote products and services of CyberStep and other companies in our corporate group;
    ・For market research purposes that support our efforts to deliver a more valuable service to our community of CyberStep users;
    ・To deliver and target advertising from third parties;
    ・To gather demographic information about CyberStep users in order to more effectively manage the Service and provide targeted advertising; and
    ・To track clicks or other ad fulfillment metrics.
  • The EEA legal basis for this processing of your personal information is our pursuit of legitimate interests, specifically in this case the legitimate interest to optimize your experience with the Services by avoiding display of recommendations and offers that are irrelevant to you. If you or the relevant Data Controller are located in the EEA, you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to such processing. To exercise this right, you may do so by contacting us as provided in the “Contact” link below.
  • Telephone numbers will be used solely to send SMS messages or to contact you regarding shipment of any prizes you may have asked us to ship. If we send e-mail or SMS messages to you for the purpose of promoting CyberStep products or services, or those of a third-party partner, we will generally provide you with choices about receiving further such promotional messages. Preferences for “push” notifications may in most cases be adjusted through Service or your mobile device.

III. HOW WE COLLECT YOUR INFORMATION AND HOW LONG WE KEEP IT

  • A.Interaction with SNS’s
  • By registering with your SNS login information, you allow CyberStep to access certain information from your profile for that SNS. The information you allow CyberStep to access is affected by the privacy settings you and your friends establish at the SNS. You can control and find out more about these settings directly from the SNS. For example, CyberStep may access and store some or all of the following information, as allowed by you, the SNS and your preferences:
    ·Your full name as provided to the SNS;
    ·Your date of birth;
    ·Your gender;
    ·Your physical location;
    ·Your SNS ID;

    ·The user ID numbers and other public data for your friends that are also connected to Service; and
    ·The login e-mail you provided to that SNS when you registered.
  • In addition, if you are a member of an SNS, the Service may also enable you to log in through an interface provided by that SNS. The Service may also enable you to access the SNS through the Service itself. If you log in to the Service using an SNS, or access an SNS through the Service, we may receive the personal and non-personal information that you have provided (or provide in the future) to that SNS.
  • By connecting the Service to an SNS, you consent to CyberStep's access, use and storage in accordance with this Privacy Policy of any and all of the information provided to CyberStep by the SNS.

  • B.Registration for the Service
  • To register for the Service, we may request that you provide your date of birth, e-mail address and telephone number.
  • You will also be required to create a user name for use in Service. That user name may be visible to other players. If you do not wish for other players to know your real name, do not include your real name in your user name.
  • C Prize Fulfillment
  • If you win a physical prize through the Service and complete the form requesting it to be shipped to you, we will receive your physical mailing address, telephone number (if not previously provided) and other information you provide us.

Any information collected through a Promotion or survey will be subject to this Privacy Policy unless stated otherwise, for example in the official rules of the Promotion or in a separate privacy policy for the Promotion.
  • If you request support relating to the Service, we may request personal information such as your name and e-mail address and your user name for any SNS’s, if that appears necessary to resolving the problem.

In addition, your IP address or Device Information may allow us to determine your approximate geographic location (however, CyberStep does not access or use exact location information that may be transmitted by your mobile device). We may also request or receive personal information in other interactions you may have with CyberStep. Unless otherwise specified in connection with that request or interaction, any such personal information will be subject to this Privacy Policy.
  • E.Cookies and Other Technologies

Other types of cookies exist, but the cookies in the Service are only used to obtain browser or device-specific information.
  • Some cookies are necessary to enable a game to function properly and to allow your gameplay experience to continue from one session another, or to prevent you from having to reenter your region and language each time you access our websites.

Cookies may be linked to your CyberStep user ID. Cookies planted by CyberStep do not collect information from your computer or mobile device that is not related to the Service.

A Pixel Tag is an electronic image, often a single pixel that is ordinarily not visible to users and may be associated with cookies on a user’s device or hard drive. Pixel Tags allow us to count users who have visited certain pages of the Service and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns.
