PLAYON GAMES Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 29 December 2025
1.Introduction
Playon Games Limited (together with its partners, parent companies, subsidiaries, licensees, licensors, and affiliates, referred to as the "Company," "we," or "us") develops, publishes, markets, and operates a variety of games across different platforms, including mobile devices (our "Applications"). Through these Applications, we provide gaming experiences and social features, including options to make purchases (collectively, the "Services").
Playon Games Limited determines how and why your personal information is processed as described in this Privacy Policy and therefore acts as the data controller for that information.

6. How We Use Your Information
We use the personal information we collect to provide, improve, and personalize our Services, or for other purposes we explain when collecting your information.
For users in the EU and UK, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases depending on the purpose of collection:
(1) Contract: We may need your information to deliver or support the services you request or purchase.
(2) Consent: In some cases, we ask for your consent separately from any contract. You can freely grant or deny your consent without affecting your access to the Services.
(3) Legitimate Interests:We may use or share your information for legitimate business purposes, as long as your privacy rights are protected. Examples include improving Services, communicating with you, marketing, preventing fraud, and keeping our IT systems and personnel secure. We ensure that these uses are reasonable and do not unfairly impact your rights.
(4) Legal Obligation:Sometimes we must process or retain your information to comply with legal requirements or obligations.
7. How We Share Your Information
We may share de-identified information-data that cannot reasonably identify you-about our players as allowed by law.
We may also share personal information in certain situations, including with your consent or when needed to provide the Services you requested. Here are the main ways we may disclose information:
(1) Public information: Some profile details, like your profile name, image, game level, and virtual items, may be visible to other players. You can edit your name, username, profile picture, and some other details.
(2) Social media platforms: With your permission, we may share your profile name, player ID, profile picture, and specific in-game content with your social media accounts.
(3) Service providers: We share information with trusted vendors, contractors, or agents who help us run the Services, including customer support, gameplay analytics, hosting, and marketing services.
(4) Financial services and payment processing: Payment and transaction information may be shared with banks and other financial partners for processing payments, preventing fraud, reducing credit risk, and related purposes.
(5) Affiliates: We may share information with subsidiaries, affiliates, and related companies to operate our Services efficiently.
(6) Corporate transactions: Personal information may be shared during mergers, acquisitions, bankruptcies, or sales of all or part of our business or assets.
(7) Compliance and law enforcement: We may access, preserve, or share personal information to comply with legal requirements, court orders, or legal processes, or to protect our rights, users, or others.
(8) Security and safety: We may share personal information to protect users, prevent fraud or spam, maintain the security of our Services, or enforce our agreements, terms, and policies.
(9) Analytics and advertising partners: Third-party companies may collect personal information for analytics or advertising purposes. In some U.S. states, including California, this sharing may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information.
Please note: Some of our Services include integrations, references, or links to third-party services with their own privacy policies. Any personal information shared with those third parties is governed by their policies, not ours.

We are committed to complying with applicable laws and regulations regarding the protection of children's personal information. Our services are not directed to children. In games, we implement age restrictions to prevent access by users below a specified age. When a child attempts to access or set up an account for these games, the system may prompt for age information solely to verify eligibility to play. We may collect personal information from children only with parental or guardian consent, in accordance with applicable laws. If we become aware that personal information from a child has been collected without such consent or in violation of our terms, we will take reasonable steps to promptly delete the information.

We will provide your personal information or deletion confirmation in a machine-readable format where feasible. Requests are generally free of charge unless they are excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded.

(2) Data portability: If your data is processed automatically based on consent or a contract, you can request a copy in a usable, portable format.

10. California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) gives you certain rights over your personal information. Here's a summary of what you can do:
(1) Notice at Collection: When we collect your personal information, we will let you know what types of information are collected, why we collect it, whether it is shared or sold, and how long we retain it. You can find all these details in this Privacy Policy.

(4) Right to Opt-Out / Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information: You can opt out of any future "sales" or sharing of your personal information as defined by the CCPA. Please note that CCPA defines "sale" broadly, so some data sharing we describe in this Privacy Policy may fall under that definition. To opt out, use Global Privacy Control or email your request to linjieqiong@playonstudio.com. We do not knowingly sell personal information of minors under 16.
(5) Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Information: You can limit our use of sensitive personal information for purposes beyond providing the services or goods you requested, or as otherwise allowed by law. For example, we may use communication content on our Services to help provide those services, offer customer support, or respond to complaints. For questions about our use of sensitive information, contact us using the details at the bottom of this policy.
(6) Authorized Agents: You may appoint an authorized agent (in writing or via power of attorney) to make CCPA requests on your behalf. We may ask the agent to provide proof of authorization and may verify your identity directly before acting on the request.
(7) Verification: To provide, correct, or delete personal information, we may need to verify your identity as required by law. Verification may include confirming your request from the email linked to your account or providing other necessary information.
(8) Non-Discrimination: Exercising your CCPA rights will not result in discrimination or adverse treatment in your use of our Services.
11. How Long We Keep Your Personal Information
We retain your personal information only for as long as needed to provide the services you request, complete transactions, comply with legal requirements, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and support other legitimate business purposes. How long we keep your data can vary depending on factors like your consent, the sensitivity of the information, automated deletion options, and our legal or contractual obligations.
If you'd like more details about retention periods for different types of personal information, you can contact us using the details in the "Contact Us" section below.
12. Where Your Personal Information Is Stored
Your personal information may be stored and processed in your country or in other locations around the world where we, our affiliates, subsidiaries, or service providers operate. These locations are chosen to ensure efficiency and good performance of our Services. Regardless of where your information is stored, we take measures to protect it in line with this Privacy Policy.
For European Users: When transferring your data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland, or the UK, we rely on legal frameworks recognized as providing adequate data protection, such as European Commission adequacy decisions or UK adequacy regulations. If a transfer falls outside these frameworks, we implement additional safeguards, like the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (June 4, 2021) and the UK Addendum, to keep your data secure.
Upon request, we can provide the Standard Contractual Clauses used with our group companies and third-party partners, though some sensitive business information may be redacted.
13. Keeping Your Information Secure
We take reasonable steps to protect the information we collect from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no security system is completely foolproof.
You can help protect your personal information by:
(1) Using strong, unique passwords,
(2) Keeping your password confidential, and
(3) Avoiding sharing your password or using the same password across multiple accounts.
14. Updates to This Privacy Policy
Every time you use our Services, the latest version of this Privacy Policy applies. We encourage you to check the date at the top of the Policy and review any updates since your last visit. This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically, and unless otherwise stated, the current version applies to all information we have about you.
If we make significant changes, we will provide notice or ask for your consent as required by law.
