War of the Words Terms & Privacy

Terms, Conditions & Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to me. Accordingly, I have developed this policy in order for you to understand how I collect, use, communicate and make use of personal information.  The following outlines my privacy policy, but in short I respect your privacy and will do anything in my power to protect your data. 

Similar to other commercial websites, our website utilises a standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation below) and server logs to collect information about how our site/app is used. Information gathered through cookies and server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages/screens viewed, time spent at our site/app, and the websites visited just before and just after our own, as well as your IP address.

Cookies

A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website, that site"s server asks your device for permission to store this file in a part of your device specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.

IP Address

IP addresses are used by your device every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a number that is used by nodes on the network to identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by my servers as part of demographic and profile data known as “traffic data” so that data (such as the Web pages you request) can be sent to you.

Email

If you choose to correspond with me through email, I may retain the content of your email messages together with your email address and our responses. I provide the same protections for these electronic communications that I employ in the maintenance of information received online, mail and telephone. This also applies when you register for the WOW website/game, sign up through any of the forms using your email address or making a purchase on this site or game. I hate spam as much as you do and commit to not ever send you any spam and keep your email safe! I am committed to keeping your e-mail address confidential. I do not sell, rent, or lease my subscription lists to third parties, and I will not provide your personal information to any third party individual, government agency, or company at any time unless strictly compelled to do so by law. I will use your e-mail address solely to provide timely information about War Of The Words. I will maintain the information you send via e-mail in accordance with applicable federal law.

Log Data

In a case of an error in WOTW I may collect data and information (through third party products) on your device called Log Data. This Log Data may include information such as your device Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, device name, operating system version, the current configuration of the WOTW, the time and date and other statistics. I use this data to understand the error and improve the game. I make use Unity Analytics to collect game data. This data is completely anonymous and is used to improve the game play experience. More information on Unity's Privacy Policies can be found here.

CAN-SPAM Compliance

In compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act, all e-mail sent by me will clearly state who the e-mail is from and provide clear information on how to contact me.
