Information You Generate Using Our Communications Features You may be able to take part in certain activities on our Service that let you communicate or share information not just with Falconjoy Studios, but also with other Falconjoy Studios players. These include:
You acknowledge and expressly agree that we may access in real-time, record and/or store archives of these communications, comments, photos and drawings on Falconjoy Studios's servers to make use of them to protect the safety and well-being of our players and Falconjoy Studios’s rights and property in connection with our Services; to conduct research; to operate, improve, personalize and optimize our Services and our players’ experiences, including through the use of analytics; and to manage and deliver contextual advertising.
If you purchase a license to use in-game virtual currency or virtual items in a game you play on www.falconjoy.com, our third-party payment processor will collect the billing and financial information it needs to process your charges. This may include your postal address, e-mail address and financial information. Falconjoy Studios does not collect or store your financial information, like credit card numbers. However, Falconjoy Studios’s payment processors may share non-financial information with us related to your purchases, like your name, billing address and the items purchased in order to fulfill your order. Falconjoy Studios may also obtain the billing and payment information that you provide when your purchase is processed by someone else (like Facebook, Apple or Google) such as when you purchase something in a game you play on a social network or that you downloaded on your mobile device. Our Terms of Service explain our policies and terms relevant to our charges, billing practices, third-party credits and virtual currencies. Please note that purchases of third party credits or currencies may also be subject to those parties’ policies.
Except as provided herein, when you ask for help from our Customer Support team, we will collect and store the contact information you give them (generally, your name and e-mail address), information about your game play or activity on our Services, and your Falconjoy Studios player and/or social network ID number. We will also store the communications you have with the Customer Service team and any information in those communications in order to provide support and improve the Services.
Information You Give Us For Text Messaging Services We receive and store the information you provide, including your mobile telephone number, when you choose to sign up to receive SMS messages.
We may collect or receive information about you from other sources like third-party information providers. We use this information along with information you provide us directly, for example, to help you and your friends connect or to serve you advertising more tailored to your interests.
The main use of the information we collect and store is to provide a better gaming experience, but there are other uses as well. The uses for which we collect and store your information include:
One important use of your information is communication. If you have provided your e-mail address to Falconjoy Studios, we will use it to respond to customer support inquiries, and keep you informed of your in-game activity, including comments from friends, let you know about in-game status such as “crops ready” as well as tell you about gift and neighbor requests. Some messages, like invites for friends to join you in a game, may include your name and profile photo. We may also send promotional e-mail messages and promotional SMS messages (e.g. text messages) ("Promotional Communications") directly or in partnership with other parties, in accordance with your marketing preferences. Each Promotional Communication will offer you choices about receiving additional messages. Receipt of such communications depends on Falconjoy Studios having certain contact information from you.
We may disclose or publish aggregated information (information about you and other players collectively that is not intended to specifically identify you, for example, players between the ages of 21 and 25 who live San Francisco) and other non-personal information about our players for industry analysis, demographic profiling, marketing, analytics, advertising, and other business purposes.
In addition, we may share your information (which may include personal information) with third parties (in other words, parties other than Falconjoy Studios) or allow third parties to collect this information from our Services in the following circumstances:
With your consent, we may share your information with third parties or allow them to collect your information from our Services in some ways not specifically described in this Privacy Policy.
The Service supports and often encourages you to interact with other players. In most Falconjoy Studios games, if you play through a social network or register through a social network (for example, Facebook Connect), your social network friends will see your name, profile photo and descriptions of your game activity. Similarly, in many Falconjoy Studios games, other players, regardless of whether they are your social network friends or not, will be able to see descriptions of your game activity (including the identification of any Falconjoy Studios games you have played), communicate with you within our Services, and view your game profile, which may include your name or a “game name” and your profile photo. For example, in Falconjoy Studios Poker, any other player may see your game profile if you are playing at the same table. In certain cases, your profile photo can reveal your social network ID or Falconjoy Studios player ID, and access to a social network ID or Falconjoy Studios player ID may allow others to view the public information associated with your related social network profile or Falconjoy Studios account. Other players may also be able to send you game requests or even friend requests through the related social network’s or Falconjoy Studios’s communication channels.
Your information, and the contents of all of your online communications in our Services and between You and Falconjoy Studios may be accessed and monitored as needed to provide our Service and may be disclosed:
We will share your information with third-party companies to perform services on our behalf, like processing payments, analyzing data, optimizing game play, e-mail delivery, hosting services, customer service and to help us in our marketing efforts, including managing and delivering contextual and tailored advertisements. We contractually require these third-party service providers to maintain the confidentiality of the information we share with them, and we contractually require them not use your information for anything other than to provide services on our behalf.
Information We Receive From a Third-Party Application Where You Play Our Games or From Your Mobile Device To manage the information Falconjoy Studios receives about you from a third-party application where you play our games, like Facebook, you will need to follow the instructions for the third-party application for updating your information and changing your privacy settings. To review and update information associated with your Falconjoy Studios game profile in certain games, visit the “settings” page in that game. You also can manage some aspects of information collection and use by visiting the “settings” page of your mobile device and reviewing the permissions of each application or “app.”
Once Falconjoy Studios receives your information from a third-party application or your mobile device, that information is stored and used by Falconjoy Studios in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You may access and update that information as described below.
If you have previously allowed us to access your geolocation data, you can stop making geolocation available to us by visiting your mobile device's settings for the relevant application or the “settings” page for the relevant game.
Opting Out of Ongoing Collection of Information About Non-Falconjoy Studios Apps You Have On Your Device
To the extent that one of our games is collecting information about non-Falconjoy Studios apps you have on your device, the game will provide you with an option to stop making that information available to us in the “settings” page for the relevant game.
When you install our apps on your mobile device you can choose to receive push notifications, which are messages an app sends you on your mobile device even when the app is not on. You can turn off notifications by visiting your mobile device’s “settings” page.
Note that if you opt-out of our Promotional Communications or other forms of communication, we may still e-mail or communicate with you from time to time if we need to provide you with information about the Service or if we need to request information from you with respect to a transaction initiated by you or for other legitimate non-marketing reasons, for example, if we update this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Service.
