6.1 We and others use cookies, web beacons, device IDS, and other tracking mechanisms to ensure that you get the most out of our App. Cookies are small amounts of information in the form of text files which we store on the device you use to access our App. Cookies and other tracking mechanisms such as device IDs allow us and others to monitor your use of the software, simplify your use of our App, and help us and others associate your activities across websites, your browsers, and mobile devices you use for advertising purposes.

For more information about how to reject cookies using your settings, please visit http://www.aboutcookies.org. Please note that if you set your internet browser to reject cookies, you may not be able to access all of the functions of our App. Since certain opt-out preferences are also stored in a cookie on your device (such as opt-outs from advertising companies), please note that if you remove all cookies, you will need to renew your opt-out choices. Some internet browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” signals. Because uniform standards for “Do Not Track” signals have not been adopted, our App may not be aware of or process “Do Not Track” signals.

Our website may contain content and links to other sites that are operated by third parties that may also operate cookies and other tracking mechanisms. We do not control these third-party sites or their tracking activities, and this Privacy Notice does not apply to them.

Actual retention periods depend on a variety of factors such as the type of product, the type and sensitivity of the data, business needs, customer expectations and needs, the types of available user controls, and the form in which the data is stored.

8. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF YOUR INFORMATION

8.1 Our company is located in Japan, and the personal information that we collect from you will predominantly be stored in the EU, the USA, and Japan. This will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

8.2 Whenever we transfer your personal data from inside the EEA out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following transfer solutions is implemented:

  1. Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. For further details, see European Commission: Model contracts for the transfer of personal data to third countries; and

  2. Where we use providers based in the USA, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield, which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between Europe and the USA. For further details, see European Commission: EU-US Privacy Shield.

    For users residing in Asia* (except Japan)

The Pokémon Company, and its affiliates Pokémon Center Co. Ltd., The Pokémon Company International, Inc., and Pokémon Korea Inc. (collectively “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company”), are committed to the protection of your information. We have written this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) to describe what information we collect during your use of Pokémon Duel (“the App”), why we collect it, how we use it, and under what circumstances we might disclose it.

This Privacy Policy and the terms of use (“Terms”) govern your use of the App. By downloading and using the App, you consent to the Terms and Privacy Policy. If you are a minor in your country of residence, you acknowledge that your parent/guardian has reviewed and consents to your use of the App subject to the Terms and this Privacy Policy. If you or your parent/guardian do not agree with the Terms or Privacy Policy, do not use the App.

This Privacy Policy applies only to information submitted and collected via the App, and does not apply to information that may be collected by us offline. Additionally, this Privacy Policy applies only to the App, and we are not responsible for the content or activities provided on linked or affiliates’ services, apps, or websites. Once you have clicked on an advertisement or other link and have left the App, our Privacy Policy no longer applies. Please read the privacy policy at the redirected location to see how your information will be handled.

  8. How to contact us

1. What information may be collected during your use of the App?

  1. “Personal Information” is information about an individual that can be used to personally identify that individual. Examples of Personal Information include: name, address, unique device identifier, date of birth, telephone number, fax number, email address, location information, and video/photo of an individual. Personal Information can also include Non-Personal Information that, when combined with other information, can be used to identify an individual. Some of the technical information that is automatically collected from your mobile device also falls under the category of Personal Information. This includes your unique device identifier (“device ID”), IP address, and identifiers for advertisers.

  2. “Non-Personal Information” is information about an individual that, by itself, does not identify that individual. Some examples of Non-Personal Information include your anonymous transfer ID and in-game nickname, demographic information (age, gender, etc.), device hardware and software data, broad geographic information, App usage statistics, and purchase history.

  3. “Financial Information” is information relating to payments and billing (e.g., account information, billing address, payment processing data). We do not collect Financial Information from you unless you voluntarily provide it—which we encourage you not to do. All financial transactions that may occur within the App are facilitated by a third-party payment service. Please review the third party’s privacy policies to learn more about how our third-party payment processors handle your Personal Information and Financial Information.

2. How do we collect information?

We may receive Personal Information and Non-Personal Information from you directly when you voluntarily give it to us as part of a customer support inquiry or when you access certain features or functions in the App that require personal information.

We also receive Non-Personal Information directly from you when you create a nickname and password or make in-App purchases. You may be able to create a nickname within the App. When creating a nickname, please do not use your actual name, initials, or any other information that could be used to personally identify you.

We also passively collect Non-Personal information about you through technological means like cookies, web beacons, Apple IDs, identifiers for advertisers, IP addresses, log files, analytics software embedded in the App, and other software tools. We may also receive information about you from our third-party service providers or other sources in relation to in-App purchase statistics.

3. How do we use information we collect about you?

We use Personal Information to provide certain features within the App, such as customized push notifications, to respond to customer inquiries, as well as to provide customer support, for internal business operations, and for identity-verification purposes. We also use your location information to assist matchmaking.

We may use Non-Personal Information to monitor system performance, and internal business operations, to send push notifications, to improve the App, to fulfill requests for additional products and services, and marketing activities, to provide customer support, and to conduct research.

Whatever the purpose may be, we will only collect information to the extent reasonably necessary to fulfill your requests and our legitimate business objectives.

4. When will we disclose your information?

We may share information with outside entities that assist with internal operations (including, without limitation, technical support, push notifications, ad serving, hosting, data storage, analytics, and customer support). These entities shall include third parties located in foreign countries. In the course of providing such services, these companies may have access to your Personal Information and Non-Personal Information. These entities have agreed to maintain the confidentiality and security of all the Personal Information they obtain from us.

We do not sell or rent Personal Information to third parties. Additionally, we will not allow third parties to use information about you for their own marketing purposes or the marketing purposes of other unaffiliated third parties without your prior consent. We may share aggregated, Non-Personal Information publicly and with our partners.

We will also disclose information when we believe in good faith that such disclosures (a) are required by law, including, for example, to comply with a court order or subpoena, or (b) will help to enforce our Terms; protect your safety or security, including the safety and security of property that belongs to you; and/or protect the safety and security of the App or third parties.

In the event of a merger, sale of assets, acquisition, dissolution, reorganization, bankruptcy, change of control, or other similar event, your Personal Information may be transferred to our successor or assign, if permitted by and done in accordance with applicable law, or if we sell one or more of our businesses, your Personal Information may be transferred as a part of the sale.

5. Storage and transfer of your information

The information we collect from you will be stored predominantly in Ireland, Japan, and the United States. You acknowledge that your information may be transferred outside of your home territory (including, if you live in the European Economic Area, outside of the European Economic Area) to Ireland, the United States and/or Japan and you consent to this transfer by using the App. You also acknowledge that the applicable laws of the territory in which we store your information may not afford the same level of protection as those in your country of residence.

6. What security measures do we take to safeguard your information?

No security measure is perfect or impenetrable, but we take commercially reasonable measures to protect information that we receive and have implemented technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access and improper use. We will continue to examine our internal policies as needed, and will improve as appropriate.

7. Updates to Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes here with an updated date, and, if there are any material changes in the way we collect, use, or share Personal Information, we will notify you by prominently posting notice with the updated version of the App.
