4. Cookies and Similar Technologies (“Tracking Technologies”)

1. What are cookies and tracking technologies?

Cookies are small data files, typically of letters and numbers, that are placed by a web server on your device. We and companies we work with may use cookies and similar technologies, including pixel tags, web beacons, mobile analytics features, and mobile identifiers (collectively, “tracking technologies”) to collect information for many reasons, such as to keep you logged in to your account, remember your preferences and settings, analyze usage of our Services, measure the performance of our Services and advertising campaigns, and ensure security on our Services. Some of the functions performed by tracking technologies are strictly necessary for us to be able to offer you our Services, while others provide us with valuable insight about how we can improve or market our Services.

2. What types of tracking technologies do we use?

We use the types of tracking technologies described below on our Services:

3. How to manage tracking technologies

We use third-party tracking technologies that allow us to automatically collect information through our Services that can recognize your device both when it visits our Services and when it visits other websites or mobile apps. We encourage you to check the websites of any third-party tracking technology providers for more information about how they use the information they collect.

Below we describe how you can manage tracking technologies on our Services:

1. Through Your Browser

You can enable, disable or delete tracking technologies via your browser settings. To do this, follow the instructions provided by your browser, usually located within the “Help”, “Tools” or “Edit” settings of your browser or mobile device. Please be aware that if you set disable tracking technologies on your browser, you may not be able to access secure areas of the Services and parts of the Services may also not work properly (e.g., preferences, referral links).

Many browser manufacturers provide helpful information about cookie management, including, but not limited to:

• Google Chrome
• Internet Explorer
• Mozilla Firefox
• Safari (Desktop) or Safari (Mobile)
• Android Browser
• Opera

If you use a different browser than those listed above, please refer to your specific browser’s documentation or check out http://www.allaboutcookies.org/browsers/index.html to learn more about different browsers. You can also find out more information about how to change your browser cookie settings at www.allaboutcookies.org. If you reside in European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, you may opt-out of online behavioral advertising served by the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance’s participating member organizations by visiting youronlinechoices.eu/.

You may also opt-out of cookies within web browsers by visiting industry-created opt-out platforms such as http://networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp and/or https://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2&lang=EN, or if you are in the European Union, http://www.youronlinechoices.eu/. You can also click on the AdChoices logo within an advertisement (where available).

2. Through Your Mobile Settings

When you use our Apps, we or our third-party marketing partners may use one or more of several different identifiers for your mobile device, including Apple Identifier For Advertising (IDFA) or Android Advertising ID (AAID), to target and deliver ads to you in our app or other apps. This means that your device identifier may be accessed by third-party ad networks and used to (a) help manage the number and types of ads you see; (b) track the source of installs related to ads seen in other apps; and (c) identify your interests and behavior and target advertising to you based on those interests and behavior. You may be able to control or limit mobile tracking technologies in your mobile device settings.

Apple requires app developers to ask for permission before they can track your activity across third-party apps or websites in order to target advertising to you, measure your actions due to advertising, or to share your information with data brokers. If you previously gave our mobile app permission to track, you can tell our app to stop tracking your activity. On iOS or iPadOS, go to Settings, tap on our app, then tap to turn off Allow Tracking. You can also reset your IDFA from your mobile device’s settings page, which will prevent continued use of existing behavioral data tied to your previous IDFA.

If you have an Android device, and are running Android 12 or above, you can delete your AAID permanently by opening Settings, navigating to Privacy > Ads, tapping “Delete advertising ID,” then tapping it again on the next page to confirm. This will prevent any app on your phone from accessing it in the future. Please note that if you do so, you will still see advertisements, but they will not be tailored to your inferred interests.

Additionally, you may also access industry-provided opt-out tools, although they are not tailored to our mobile applications. For instance, you may visit http://aboutads.info/appchoices to learn about and download the Digital Advertising Alliance’s free consumer choice app, AppChoices, which allows you to opt-out directly from companies listed in the app. Where applicable, the AppChoices app also allows California residents to submit requests to opt-out of the sale of personal information to the companies listed in the AppChoices app under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

3. Through Third Parties

Within  the “Service Providers and Partners” section below, which lists our service providers and partners, you may find links to each third party’s website for information about how they use tracking technologies to collect and use your information, and how you may be able to opt-out of their tracking.

5. Your Privacy Rights and Choices

What Rights Apply

To determine which rights you have, please refer to the table below that references the rights as described above. U.S. States not listed either do not have a law providing such rights, or it does not apply to our operations.

Submitting a Request to Exercise Your Privacy Rights

To assert your applicable privacy rights, please contact us at Support@pivotgame.net.. Please note that to protect your privacy and security, we must be able to verify your identity before we can process your request to exercise any of the privacy rights that you may be entitled to under the applicable law. We may ask you to provide information such as your name, contact information, and any additional relevant information based on your relationship with us. Residents of California, Colorado, and Connecticut may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf to access or delete your personal information. To do so, you must: (1) provide that authorized agent written and signed permission to submit such request; and (2) verify your own identity directly with us.

Your Opt-out Rights

If you reside in California, Colorado, Connecticut, or Virginia, you may have the right to opt-out of certain types of processing of your personal information.

1. Right to Opt-Out of Sale. You may have the right to opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information, as defined under applicable laws. We generally do not sell your personal information for profit, but like many businesses, we may use cookies, pixels, and similar technology on our Sites and Services, and we share certain personal information, such as your IP address or device identifiers, with third-party advertisers in order to improve your user experience and to optimize our marketing activities. Under the broad definition of “sell” contained in some jurisdictions’ privacy laws, this could be considered a sale.
2. Right to Opt-Out of Targeted Advertising. You may have the right to opt-out of the sharing of your personal information to third parties for behavior or cross-contextual advertising purposes. Like many businesses, we use cookies, pixels, and similar technology on our Services, and we share certain information, such as your IP address or devise identifiers, to certain third-party advertisers in order to improve your user experience and to optimize and personalize our marketing activities. You have the right to direct us not to share or use your personal information for targeted advertising purposes.

To exercise your right to opt-out of sales and targeted advertising, please click the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link in the website footer and click the opt-out link contained within. Please note that, if you do not have an account with us or if you are not logged into your account, your request to opt-out of sale/sharing will be linked to your browser identifier only and not linked to any account information because the connection between your browser and the account is not known to us. Additionally, you may still receive generalized ads after opting out of targeted advertising.

[You may also opt-out of sharing and sales by using an opt-out preference signal for each participating browser system that you use. The Global Privacy Control signal is currently the only opt-out preference signal we can recognize. You can visit the Global Privacy Control official site at https://globalprivacycontrol.org/#about to learn how to configure your device to send such signals. We will honor and process the opt-out preference signal in a frictionless manner. Please note that the opt-out choice will only apply to your use of our Sites through the current browser or device you are  using and only so long as that browser’s cookies are not erased. You will need to submit a separate opt-out of sharing request on each device and browser you use to visit our Sites to completely opt-out using this method.  Please note that you may still receive generalized ads after opting out of targeted advertising.]

6. Security

We take the security of your personal information very seriously. We strive to adopt reasonable measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, use, alteration, and corruption or loss. We shall take reasonable measures to protect your personal information and to ensure the accuracy and timely update of the personal information collected about you.

Please understand that due to the nature of the internet industry, it is impossible to ensure that systems are 100% secure. You should understand that the systems may encounter issues due to the factors beyond our control, such as malicious actors. We also depend on you to keep your account information and other personal information secure by keeping your password confidential and taking precautions to keep others from accessing your account. In the event that we are required by law to inform you of a breach to your personal information we may notify you electronically (e.g., via email we have on file for you or via a posting on our website or digital properties), in writing, or by telephone, if required or permitted to do so by law.

When you access or use our Services, your personal information may be processed in Hong Kong, the People’s Republic of China, or any other country in which we, our Affiliates, or service providers maintain facilities. Such countries or jurisdictions may have data protection laws that are less protective than the laws of the jurisdiction in which you reside. If you do not want your information transferred to, processed, or maintained outside of the country or jurisdiction where you are located, you should immediately stop accessing or using the Services.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, please refer to the section below entitled Additional Notice to Individuals in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland.

We will not delete any personal information about individuals other than yourself, unless such other individual also wishes to delete their personal information at the same time.

We will not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under the age of sixteen (16) without parental consent.

Your browser may allow you to adjust your browser settings so that “do not track” requests are sent to the websites that you visit.

This section only applies to individuals located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland (collectively, the “Designated Countries”) at the time of data collection.
