them. To request removal of your personal information from our blog or
community forum, contact us at support(at)kyygames.com. In some cases, we

iOS and Android
Platforms
When you use any of the Powerco games or applications on a
mobile platform, we may collect and record certain information such as your
unique device ID (persistent / non-persistent), hardware type, media access
control (“MAC”) address, international mobile equipment identity (“IMEI”), the
version of your operating system (“OS”), your device name and your location
(based on your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address). This information is useful to
us for troubleshooting and helps us understand usage trends.
We may collect your location based information for the purpose
of providing you with the correct version of the application. We will not share
this information with any third party. If you no longer wish to allow us to
track or use this information, you may turn it off at the device level. Please
note, the application may not work properly if we are unable to tell where you
are coming from (Country specific).
Customer Service
We may collect your email address when you contact our customer
service group and we may use that email address to contact you about your
gaming experience with Powerco games and notify you about company news and
promotions. If you no longer wish to receive certain email notifications you
may opt-out at any time by following the unsubscribe link located at the bottom
of each communication or by emailing us at support(at)kyygames.com.
Push Notifications
We may occasionally send you push notifications through our
mobile applications to send you game updates and other service related
notifications that may be of importance to you. You may at any time opt-out
from receiving these types of communications by turning them off at the device
level through your settings.
Other Collection
We may also acquire information from you through (1) your
access and participation in message boards on the Service, (2) your
participation in surveys regarding the Service or (3) your participation in a
sweepstakes or contest through the Service.
We may provide you the opportunity to participate in a
sweepstakes or contest through our Service. If you participate, we will request
certain personal information from you. Participation in these sweepstakes and
contests are voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to
disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact
information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information
(such as zip code).
We use this information to notify winners and award prizes, to
monitor traffic or personalize the Service. We may use a third party service
provider to conduct these sweepstakes or contests; that company is prohibited
from using your users’ personal information for any other purpose.
Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that we transfer to your computer
and/or device, to identify a user's computer/device and to "remember"
things about your visit, such as your preferences or a username and password.
Information contained in a cookie may be linked to your personal information,
such as your user ID, for purposes such as improving the quality of our
Service, tailoring recommendations to your interests, and making the Service
easier to use. You can disable cookies at any time, although you may not be
able to access or use features of the Service.
Clear Gifs (Web
Beacons/Web Bugs)
We or our third party tracking utility partner may employ a
software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that help
us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective.
Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to
cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast
to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are
embedded invisibly on Web pages or e-mails and are about the size of the period
at the end of this sentence. We may associate this information with your IP
address or device identifier but do not tie the information gathered by clear
gifs to our customers’ personal information.
Mobile Analytics
We use mobile analytics software to allow us to better
understand the functionality of our Mobile Software on your device. This
software may record information such as how often you use the application, the
events that occur within the application, aggregated usage, performance data,
and where the application was downloaded from. We do not link the information
we store within the analytics software to any personal information you submit
within the mobile application.
Third Party Services
Our services may contain third party tracking tools from our
service providers, examples of which include Flurry from Yahoo! and Google
Analytics. Such third parties may use cookies, APIs, and SDKs in our services
to enable them to collect and analyze user information on our behalf. The third
parties may have access to information such as your device identifier, MAC
address, IMEI, locale (specific location where a given language is spoken),
geo-location information, and IP address for the purpose of providing their
services under their respective privacy policies. Our privacy policy does not
cover the use of tracking tools from third parties. We do not have access or
control over these third parties.
Please refer to our list of analytics partners within the
Services and for more information on how to opt out at: http://www.trulonuniverse.com/partner-opt-out.

Security
Powerco takes reasonable measures to protect your information
from unauthorized access or against loss, misuse or alteration by third
parties.
Although we make good faith efforts to store the information
collected on the Service in a secure operating environment that is not
available to the public, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of that
information during its transmission or its storage on our systems. Further,
while we attempt to ensure the integrity and security of our network and
systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent
third-party “hackers" from illegally obtaining access to this information.
We do not warrant or represent that your information will be protected against,
loss, misuse, or alteration by third parties. No method of transmission over
the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however.
Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

active or as needed to provide you services. If you wish to cancel your account
or request that we no longer use your information to provide you services,

as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and
enforce our agreements.
