If you are unclear about what information a third-party application is sharing with us, please go to the third-party application to find out more about their privacy practices.

Cookies and Automated Information Collection We and service providers acting on our behalf, like Google Analytics, store log files and use tracking technologies such as:

cookies, which are small pieces of data transferred to your mobile device or computer for record-keeping purposes; web beacons, which let us know if a certain page was visited or whether an e-mail was opened; tracking pixels, which allow us or our advertising partners to advertise more efficiently and effectively; and local shared objects, also known as flash cookies, which help us to reduce fraud, remember your in-game preferences and speed up load times.

We and our service providers use these log files, tags, and tracking technologies to collect and analyze certain kinds of technical information, including:

IP addresses; the type of computer or mobile device you are using; your operating system version; your mobile device’s identifiers, like your MAC Address, Identifier For Advertising (IDFA), and/or International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI); your browser types; your browser language; referring and exit pages, and URLs; platform type; the number of clicks on a page or feature; domain names; landing pages; pages viewed and the order of those pages; the amount of time spent on particular pages; and app state and the date and time of activity on our websites or apps.

your age or birthday; your first and last names; your e-mail address; a password; and other information that helps us make sure it’s you accessing your account or helps us improve our services.

Other Sources We may collect or receive information about you from other sources like third-party information providers.

How We Use the Information We Collect

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:

to operate, improve and optimize our Services and our users’ experiences; to create your user accounts and allow you to use our apps; to identify and suggest connections with other Tokyo Otaku users and personalize our Services to you; to enable players to communicate with each other; to provide technical support and respond to users inquiries; to protect the safety and well-being of our users; to protect Tokyo Otaku ’s rights and property in connection with our Services; to prevent fraud or potentially illegal activities, and to enforce our Terms of Service; to manage and deliver contextual and behavioral advertising; to notify players of in-game updates, new products or promotional offers; to administer rewards, surveys, sweepstakes, contests, or other promotional activities or events sponsored or managed by us or our business partners; to comply with our legal obligations, resolve any disputes we may have with you or other players, and to enforce our agreements with third parties; and to conduct research. One important use of your information is communication. If you have provided your e-mail address to Tokyo Otaku , 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 Tokyo Otaku having certain contact information from you. If you apps designed for children under 13, you will not be able to provide us with certain contact information. Please see the section on Our Policies Concerning Children for more information.

How We Share Your Information

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 Tokyo Otaku ) or allow third parties to collect this information from our Services in the following circumstances:

Your Consent
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.

Friends and Other Tokyo Otaku Useres
The Service supports and often encourages you to interact with other users. If you register through a social network (for example, Facebook Connect), your social network friends will see your name, profile photo and descriptions of your activity. Similarly, other players, regardless of whether they are your social network friends or not, will be able to see descriptions of your activity , communicate with you within our Services, and view your game profile, which may include your name or a “game name” and your profile photo.

Third-Party Advertising Including Tailored Advertising and Analytics We have advertising on our Services so we can continue to offer many of our Services for free.

We do not actively share personal information with third-party advertisers for their direct marketing purposes unless you give us your consent.

When advertisers or ad networks place ads in our Services, they may collect or we may share the following types of information from within our Services:

performance data (like the number of clicks on an advertisement); aggregated and/or de-identified information about you and other players collectively that is not intended to specifically identify you (like players between the ages of 21 and 25 who live San Francisco); certain technical information (for example, IP addresses, non-persistent device identifiers such as IDFAs, and de-identified persistent device identifiers such as a hashed Android ID); your social network ID; and other contextual data about your game play (for example, your level and session length). The information collected may be used to:

measure how effective ads are, to offer you targeted advertising in order to personalize your experience by showing you advertisements for products and services that are more likely to appeal to you (a practice known as behavioral advertising), and/or undertake web analytics (like Google Analytics which is used to analyze traffic and other player activity to improve your experience). Advertisers or ad networks may collect this information through the use of tracking technologies like browser cookies and web beacons, and they may use a single tracking technology or multiple tracking technologies at the same time.

Please note, after clicking on a third party advertisement, you may no longer be on a site hosted by Tokyo Otaku or the social network through which you are using the Tokyo Otaku app.

If you do not want to receive tailored in-application advertisements from third parties, please see How to Access, Update and Manage Your Information. Please note that no tailored advertisements will be delivered for Tokyo Otaku users designed for children under 13, though Tokyo Otaku may allow contextual advertisements to be displayed.

Safety, Security and Compliance with Law Your information, and the contents of all of your online communications in our Services and between You and Tokyo Otaku may be accessed and monitored as needed to provide our Service and may be disclosed:

when we have a good faith belief that we have to disclose the information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, or legal process (for example, a court order, search warrant or subpoena); to satisfy any laws or regulations that apply; where we believe in our sole discretion that the Service is being used in committing a crime, including to report such criminal activity or to share information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection, credit risk reduction, and other security precautions; when we have a good faith belief that there is an emergency that poses a threat to the health and/or safety of you, another person or the public generally; and to protect the rights or property of Tokyo Otaku and other applicable third parties, including to enforce our Terms of Service. Offer Walls

Tokyo Otaku may display an “offer wall” that is hosted by an offer wall provider. The offer wall allows third-party advertisers to provide virtual currency to players in exchange for interacting with an advertisement or for completing a marketing offer that may include signing up for an account with one of those advertisers. These offers are not made by Tokyo Otaku . These offers may be shown to you based on certain technical information, like your geographic area or de-identified demographic information. After clicking on one of these offers, you will no longer be on a site hosted by Tokyo Otaku or the social network through which you are using the Tokyo Otaku app. To properly credit player accounts and to prevent fraud, a unique identifier, in some cases your social network ID or Delirium player ID, will be shared with the offer wall provider.

Third-Party Service Providers
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.

Sale or Merger
In the event that Tokyo Otaku undergoes a business transition (including proposed transactions), like a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or part its assets, we may disclose or transfer all of your information, including personal information, to the successor organization in the transition. We will make reasonable efforts to let you and other players know (in the way described in Changes to Our Privacy Policy) of the business transition before transferring your personal information.

How to Access, Update and Manage Your Information

The privacy management tools for applications on Facebook can be found here. To review and update information associated with your Tokyo Otaku user profile, visit the “settings” page in that app. 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 Tokyo Otaku receives your information from a third-party application or your mobile device, that information is stored and used by Tokyo Otaku in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You may access and update that information as described below.

Accessing and Updating Your Information Held by Tokyo Otaku If you want to review, delete, or change the information Tokyo Otaku has about you or have additional questions, e-mail us at support@TokyoOtaku app.com We will respond to your request within thirty days.

Stopping Use of Your Information
If you no longer want Tokyo Otaku to make active use of your information, you may send an e-mail to help@paperpeoplespellingbee.com Place “Delete My Account” in the subject line and include your first name, last name, e-mail address and your social network ID for the social network from which you access our Services (if applicable) in the body of the e-mail (for example, your Facebook user ID). We will respond to your request within thirty days.

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 Promotional Emails from Tokyo Otaku
If you want to stop receiving promotional e-mails from Tokyo Otaku , click on the “unsubscribe” link in any promotional email from Tokyo Otaku or visit the e-mail preference page. Please note that once we receive your request, it may take an additional period of time for your opt-out to become effective. Your unsubscribe or e-mail preference change will be processed promptly, and in no event longer than ten business days.

Opting Out of Other Communications
You can opt out of receiving SMS messages (for example, text messages) by texting back STOP to the number we send the text from for that particular SMS message program. In some cases a preferences management page will also be available. When we receive an opt-out message from you for SMS messages, we may send a message confirming our receipt of your opt-out.

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.

Opting Out of Third-Party Tailored Advertising
If you are interested in more information about tailored advertising and your choices to prevent third parties from delivering tailored web and mobile web advertising you may visit the following websites:

Network Advertising Initiative Consumer Opt-Out Page or the Digital Advertising Alliance Opt-Out Page for U.S.-based advertising; and Your Online Choices UK website for EU-based advertising. These opt-out tools are provided by third parties, not Tokyo Otaku . Tokyo Otaku does not control or operate these tools or the choices that advertisers and others provide through these tools.

In addition, if you do not want to receive tailored in-application advertisements from third parties that relate to your interests in apps on your mobile device, you may opt- ut by adjusting the ad tracking settings on your device. You can also reset the “Advertising Identifier” (like an IDFA) from your mobile device’s settings page, which will prevent continued use of existing behavioral data tied to the previous “Advertising Identifier.” Further, depending on the platform provider (such as Apple or Google), you may be able to download apps, such as the Digital Advertising Alliance’s “AppChoices” app, that offer to provide you with control regarding the collection and use of cross-app data for tailored advertising. Like the opt-out tools mentioned above for web, these mobile opt-out tools are provided by third parties, not Tokyo Otaku . Tokyo Otaku does not control or operate these tools or the choices that advertisers and others provide through these tools.

Please note that you may still receive advertisements from third parties within the Tokyo Otaku app even if you opt out of tailored advertising but they will not be based on your activity across unrelated web sites or apps.

Opting Out of Cookie Tracking

You can set your web browser to warn you about attempts to place cookies on your computer or limit the type of cookies you allow. Flash cookies operate differently than browser cookies and cookie management tools available in a web browser may not remove flash cookies. To learn more about and manage flash cookies you can visit the Adobe website and make changes at the Global Privacy Settings Panel.

If you disable cookies, you may lose some of the features and functionality of our Services because Tokyo Otaku cookies are necessary to track and enhance your game activities.

International Operations and Transfers Out of Switzerland and the EEA

IMPORTANT: When you use Our Services, your data may be sent to the United States and possibly other countries.

If you don’t live in the United States, Skydea K.K. will control your personal data.

As part of our international operations, we may transfer data to our Affiliates (which means subsidiaries, parent companies, joint ventures and other corporate entities under common ownership with Skydea K.K.) from time to time for our legitimate business purposes. For example, Skydea K.K. provides certain services to its Affiliates.

We store information about players and visitors to our sites on servers located in the United States, and we may also store this information on servers and equipment in other countries. Personal data collected within Switzerland and the European Economic Area (“EEA”) may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside of Switzerland and the EEA. The data we hold may also be processed by employees operating outside of Switzerland and the EEA who work for us or one of our Affiliates or for one of our vendors. This staff may be engaged in, among other things, (i) the processing of transactions and your payment details and (ii) the provision of support services. When we transfer your personal information internationally we will take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely, lawfully and in the manner we describe here. Please note that laws vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and so the privacy laws applicable to the places where your information is transferred to or stored, used or processed in, may be different from the privacy laws applicable to the place where you are resident.

Tokyo Otaku has certified compliance with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, effective as of the date our certification is posted at https://www.privacyshield.gov/list. We adhere to the relevant Privacy Shield Principles for all personal data received from participating European countries in reliance on the Privacy Shield framework.

How Long We Keep Your Information

How long we retain your information depends on why we collected it and how we use it. We will not retain your personal information for longer than is necessary for our business purposes or for legal requirements. For instance, we may retain some information for a few years after you have closed your account with us if this is necessary to meet our legal obligations or to exercise, defend or establish legal rights.

Security of Your Information

We implement security measures to help protect the security of your information both online and offline. We take steps to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. These measures vary based upon the sensitivity of your information.

If you have an account registered directly with Delirium, your profile information is protected by the password you use to access your Delirium account. It is important that you protect and maintain your Delirium account’s security and that you immediately tell us of any unauthorized use of your account. If you forget the password to your Delirium account, the Service allows you to request that instructions be sent to you that explain how to reset your password. If you access our Services through a social network and your social network account is hacked, this may lead to someone using your Tokyo Otaku app without your permission. So, be careful to keep your social network account information, including your social network account password, secure as well. We urge you to log out of your Tokyo Otaku account and any social network account you have used to access our Services after you use it.

When you sign into your Tokyo Otaku account or enter payment information, we or our third party payment processor use encryption to transmit that information. While we take precautions against possible security breaches of our Services and our customer databases and records, no website or Internet transmission is completely secure. We cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information while it is being transmitted to our Service. Any transmission is at your own risk. If you have questions about the security of our websites, please contact us at help@paperpeoplespellingbee.com (link sends e-mail).

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

If we decide to make material changes to our Privacy Policy, we will tell you and other players by placing a notice on Tokyo Otaku worldapp.com or its equivalent in-game, or by sending you a notice to the e-mail address we have on file for you prior to the change becoming effective. We may supplement this process by placing notices on our website, social network pages, and/or forums and on other Tokyo Otaku websites. You should periodically check www.TokyoOtaku.app and this privacy page for updates.
