We strongly urge you to read this Policy and make sure that you fully understand and agree to it. If you do not agree to this Policy, please discontinue and avoid using our Services. You have the right to cease using our Services, pursuant to this Policy at any time.

 

You are not legally required to provide us with any Personal Data, but without it we will not be able to provide you with the full range or with the best experience of using our Services.

 

This Privacy Policy is integrated into and forms part of the vig labs Terms of Use which are currently available at: https://www.viglabs.xyz/terms-and-conditions.

 

1. What types of data do we collect?

 

We collect two types of data from you: Personal Data ("Personal Data") and non-Personal Data. Personal Data means any information which may potentially allow your identification with reasonable means (for example, email address or name). Non-Personal Data, by contrast, can be defined as any information that does not relate to an identified or identifiable natural person. This may include, for example, your aggregated usage information and technical information transmitted by your device (e.g. the device you use, the type of browser and operating system your device uses, language preference, access time, etc.). This section sets out how and when we collect those types of data from you.

 

 

1.1 Account Information . If you choose to register an account with our Services, we collect your full name, email address, phone number, birth date, and username. If you choose to log in, access or otherwise connect to the Services through a social networking service (such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.), we may collect your user ID and/or username associated with that social networking service, as well as any information you make public using that social networking service or that the social networking service allows us to access.

 

 

 

1.2 Payment Information . When you decide to deposit money in our Apps, you will be required to provide us with your billing information. The information you will need to submit depends on which billing method you choose. For example, if you pay with a credit card, we will collect your card information.

 

 

1.3 Usage Information . When you use our Services, we collect technical information about your interaction with our Services. Such information may include geolocation data, IP address, unique identifiers (e.g. MAC address and UUID) as well as other information which relates to your activity in the Services.

 

 

 

1.4 Communication Information . When you send us an email or contact us via the support in our Apps or Website, we collect the Personal Data you provide us. This may include your name, email address and any other information you choose to provide.



2. Tracking Technologies

 

When you visit or access our Services, we use cookies, pixels, beacons, local storage, and similar technologies ("Tracking Technologies"). These allow us to automatically collect information about you, your device, and your online behavior, in order to enhance your navigation in our Services, improve our Service's performance, perform analytics, customize your experience and offer you, for example, tailored content and advertisements that better correspond with your interests.

 

 

 

2.1 What types of Tracking Technologies do we use?

 

When you use or access our Services, we use the following categories of Tracking Technologies:

 

Strictly Necessary Tracking Technologies – these Tracking Technologies are automatically placed on your computer or device when you access our Services or take certain actions on our Apps or Websites. These Tracking Technologies are essential to enable you to navigate around and use the features of our Services. We do not need to obtain your consent in order to use these Tracking Technologies;

 

Tracking and Advertising Tracking Technologies – These Tracking Technologies collect information about your browsing habits in order to make advertising more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. The Tracking Technologies remember the websites you visit and that information is shared with other parties such as advertisers and/or publishers. Publishers, advertisers, and third-party ad networks may also utilize Tracking Technologies or similar technologies to deliver ads and monitor the performance of such ads. The collection of information through Tracking Technologies by such third parties will be governed by their own privacy policies/cookies policies and principles, which the Company does not control;

 

Functionality Tracking Technologies – These Tracking Technologies allow our Services to remember choices you make (such as your language) and provide enhanced and personalized features. For example, these Tracking Technologies are used for authentication (to remember when you are logged-in) and support other features of our Services;

 

Performance Tracking Technologies – These Tracking Technologies collect information about your online activity (for example the duration of your visit on our Services), including behavioral data and content engagement metrics. These Tracking Technologies are used for analytics, research and to perform statistics (based on aggregated information).

 

 

 

2.2 How and by whom Tracking Technologies are stored on your device?

 

We store Tracking Technologies on your device when you visit or access our Services (for example, when you are visiting our Website) – these are called "First Party Tracking Technologies". In addition, Tracking Technologies are stored by other third parties (for example, our analytics service providers, business partners, and advertisers), who run content on our Services – these are called "Third Party Tracking Technologies". Both types of Tracking Technologies may be stored either for the duration of your visit on our Services or for repeat visits.

 

There are various ways in which you can manage and control your Tracking Technologies settings. You can change your preferences using our cookie settings tool (however, please note that this tool may only be available in certain jurisdictions). Other methods of managing your Tracking Technology preferences includes: changing your browser settings to send a “Do-Not-Track” signal. In such a case, your browser will send us a special signal to stop tracking your activity;. However, please note that certain features of the Website may not work properly or effectively if you delete or disable cookies.

You can withdraw your consent to personalized advertising experience on your device at any time by using your device settings as follows:

 

On iOS, depending on the applicable iOS version, you may withdraw consent across all apps by either enabling the “Limit Ad Tracking” setting or disabling the “Allow Apps to Request to Track” permission in your iOS device settings. Depending on the applicable iOS version, instead of withdrawing consent on a device-wide basis, you may also have the option of withdrawing consent on a per-app basis by disabling tracking permissions for specific apps that appear under the “Allow Apps to Request to Track” setting in your iOS device settings (precise directions may differ depending on the applicable iOS version.)

 

On Android devices, you may withdraw your consent in the Google Ads settings within your Android settings by enabling the “Opt-out of Ads Personalization” setting (precise directions and the name of the setting may differ depending on the applicable Android versions and device manufacturer).

Therefore, we strictly enforce prohibitions against cheating, hacking, account stealing, and any other unauthorized or fraudulent activity. When you create an account, play our games, or otherwise interact with our Services, we may use a variety of anti-cheat and fraud prevention technologies to help us identify and prevent malicious activity. These services may collect and analyze data about the game binary or your computer to detect cheating, and may be provided by us or by third-party service providers.

We do not receive or store your passwords for any of these third-party services.
