Cookies, Analytics and Interest-Based Advertising

In addition to third parties providing content, advertising or other functionality on the Services, we may use cookies, pixel tags, local storage and other technologies ("Technologies") to automatically collect information through the Services. Technologies are essentially small data files placed on your computer, tablet, mobile phone or other devices that allow us to record certain pieces of information when you visit or interact with our Services.

​

Cookies are small text files placed on visitors' device browsers to store their preferences. Most browsers allow you to block and delete cookies. However, if you do so, the Services may not function properly.

 

A pixel tag (also known as a web beacon) is a piece of code embedded in the Services that collects information about users' interaction on that web page. The use of a pixel allows us to record, for example, that a user has visited a particular web page or clicked on a particular advertisement. We can also add web beacons to emails to recognise whether messages have been opened, acted upon or forwarded.

​

We may share the advertising identifier associated with your mobile device or tablet (such as Apple IDFA and Google Advertising ID) with advertisers. An advertising identifier is an alphanumeric string that can be used to identify your device so that advertisers can serve you relevant ads. We only use the Apple IDFA as permitted by Apple. Likewise, we only use the Google Advertising ID as permitted by Google. An advertising identifier is assigned by default on your mobile device and ad tracking is enabled. You can limit or even reset the use of your advertising device ID using the privacy settings on your mobile device. In some cases, you may need to reset the operating system to reset the advertising device ID.

 

We may also use Google Analytics to collect information about visitor behaviour and visitor demographics on our Services.

​

Cookies and Interest-Based Advertising

You can stop or restrict the placement of technologies on your device or remove them by adjusting your preferences as permitted by your browser or device. Please note that cookie-based opt-outs are not effective on mobile applications. To make individual choices for mobile apps on a mobile device, you can download DAA's AppChoices app from your device's app store. Additionally, you can use your device's platform controls in your settings to make choices on some devices (e.g. Android, iOS, and others). You can also email us at info@lugalgames.com; We will do our best to assist you with your request.

 

Opting Out of Email and Electronic Communications

If you receive an unsolicited email from us, you can use the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email to opt out of receiving future emails. Please note that you will continue to receive emails regarding transactions regarding the product or Services you have requested. Regardless of your marketing preferences, we may also send you certain non-promotional communications about us and our Services (for example, communications regarding the Services or updates to this Privacy Policy). We will obtain your consent where required by applicable law before sending you our promotional emails. We may send you notifications through our mobile application.

Third Party Websites/Apps and Software Development Kits

The Services may contain links to other websites/applications, and other websites/applications may reference or link to our Services. These other domains and websites are not controlled by us. We encourage our users to read the privacy policies of every website and application they interact with. We cannot endorse and are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such other websites or applications. You visit these other websites or applications at your own risk.

We may use third-party APIs and software development kits (“SDKs”) as part of the functionality of our Services.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

However, to provide a more relevant advertising experience, we may allow third-party advertising partners to set Technologies and other tracking tools on our Services that collect information about your activities and your device (e.g., your IP address, mobile identifiers, page).

We may also combine and share this and other information (such as demographic information and past purchase history) with our third-party advertising partners. These advertising partners may use this information (and similar information collected from other websites) to serve you targeted ads in our games or when you visit third-party websites or applications that use their networks. This practice is often referred to as “interest-based advertising” or “personalized advertising.” If you prefer not to share your Personal Data with third-party advertising partners, you can follow the instructions in the “Cookies and Interest-Based Advertising” section above.
