Our advertising partners may combine this Information with information which they have collected about you when you use their services (or the websites or services of third parties) to serve you more relevant ads in our mobile games or to improve the accuracy of their targeting and measurement systems. We recommend that you review our advertising partners’ privacy policies for more information, accessible in our Cookie Policy at https://rittenhousegame.com/cookies.
You can review your options to manage and opt-out of mobile advertising by (1) visiting your mobile device developer's website or reviewing your device manual.

Vendors use your Information to execute, deliver and/or occasionally improve the services they provide.

We also share some of our players’ Information (for example, gameplay information) with our third party partners and licensees who create applications and websites that benefit our player community (for example, tournaments, leaderboards and gameplay statistic tools).
2. Law
We will disclose your Information in the good faith belief we must do so by law, including but not limited to disclosure to law enforcement or other government officials in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose you or us to legal liability.

For example, we will review your gameplay, communications, and other account information to investigate allegations of cheating, hacking or any other breach or alleged breach of any applicable Terms of Use or this Privacy Policy and disclose your personal information, including communications, to our legal advisors, consultants and law enforcement or other government officials.
4. Protecting Others
We disclose your Information with third parties where we believe this is necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of any person.

As set out in detail below, Mint Studios takes a range of security measures designed to help protect your Information. However, complete online and offline security can never be guaranteed, so you should always take care when sharing your information online.
Mint Studios takes a range of security measures designed to protect your personal information and keep it confidential (unless it is non-confidential by nature, for example, publicly-available information like user generated content, leaderboard rankings, and scores, etc.). We also take steps to ensure that the personal information collected is protected from misuse and alteration. In addition, we request vendors who process personal information on our behalf to themselves take a range of security measures designed to help protect your personal information. However, the Internet by its nature is not a secure environment and the nature of security risks is constantly evolving, as are the technical and organizational industry standards relating to management of those risks. The complete security of any personal information collected, stored or used by us or our vendors cannot therefore be guaranteed.
As set out in more detail below, you can view, correct, update, or request the deletion of your personal information in any of your Mint Studios accounts at any time.
If for any reason you wish to view, correct, or update personal information collected about you, or if you want to deactivate your Mint Studios account, simply access your Mint Studios account through Mint Studios account settings or another product or service as applicable and edit your personal information. You will need your password to access your personal account. You may also send us an email asking us to deactivate your account at [email protected].
If for any reason you are concerned with the way we are using your personal information, or would like to correct or request that we delete such personal information, you can send your request to us at [email protected].
Retention Period
We delete your personal information which we process for the performance of the contract or based on your consent in case you terminate your contract with us, deactivate your Mint Studios account, withdraw your consent or where you request us to delete your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. As an exception, we will not delete your personal information where we still have a legitimate interest to use your personal information. For example, we may still retain your Information to resolve disputes, enforce our Terms of Use or other user agreements, or comply with legal requirements; in this case, your personal information will be blocked from use for any other purpose. In any case, we will not retain or use your personal information longer than necessary for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. Due to technical reasons, residual copies of Information that has been removed from your account and/or the Properties may remain in our backup systems for approximately one month.
To contact us, you can send us an email at [email protected], or write to us at: 15390 W. Centerra Dr. Unit 56, Goodyear, AZ 85338, Attn: Privacy Policy Team. For visitors from the EEA and the UK, you may also contact our Data Protection Officer by email at [email protected].

Without being discriminated against for exercising these rights, California residents have the right to request that we disclose what personal information we collect from you, to delete that information, and to opt-out of the sale of your personal information, subject to certain restrictions.

Right to Request Deletion of Your Personal Information
You may also request that we delete personal information that we collected from you. Some information may be exempt from such requests under California law.

How to Exercise Your Access and Deletion Rights
California residents may exercise their California privacy rights by submitting your request to us by email to [email protected].
For security purposes, we will verify your identity – including requesting information from you – when you request to exercise your California privacy rights. If you have an online account you use to interact with us, logging into your account will serve to verify your identity and request. We may request additional information if we believe your account has been compromised. If you do not have an account with us, or if we have reason to suspect that the security of your account is compromised, then we will request additional information from you to match with our existing records to verify your identity, depending on the nature of the request and the sensitivity of the information sought.
Once we have verified your identity (and your agent, as applicable), we will respond to your request as appropriate. If we are unable to complete your requests, we will provide you information about the reasons that we could not comply with your request.
Right to Nondiscrimination
We will not deny, charge different prices for, or provide a different level of quality of goods or services if you choose to exercise these rights.
Sale of Personal Information
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) gives California residents the right to opt out of the sale of personal information.
We do not sell information that directly identifies you such as your name, telephone number, mailing address or email address. We also do not provide customer personal information to third parties for monetary or other valuable consideration.
We share certain information with third parties who do work on our behalf for the business purposes we describe above.
We also may allow third-party advertising companies to collect information about your activity on our websites and in our apps, for example through cookies, mobile ad identifiers, pixels, web beacons and social network plugins. These advertising entities use information they collect to help us provide more relevant advertisements and for other purposes described in our Privacy Policy. You can set up cookie controls and opt-out of advertising cookies, including third-party advertising cookies, by clicking https://rittenhousegame.com/cookies. You can also set up cookie controls through many browser settings and you can use industry-wide opt outs to control the use of cookies for interest-based advertising purposes. You may also opt out through the settings page of our mobile applications that may share your data for these purposes. You can find additional information in the Mobile Advertising section above and in our Cookie Policy.
The personal information collected through these methods is associated with your browser or device, so if you would like to opt-out for this information you will need to disable cookies or trackers as described above. Because your opt-out preference is stored in a cookie, if you reset your advertising ID or clear your cookies then we will not recognize your device or your choices, so you must opt-out again.
In addition to the opt outs related to advertising above, we support the CCPA by allowing California residents to opt out of any other future sale of their personal information by submitting a sale opt-out request by emailing us at [email protected].
Authorized Agents
You may also designate an agent to make requests to exercise your rights under the CCPA as described above. We will take steps both to verify the identity of the person seeking to exercise their rights as listed above, and to verify that your agent has been authorized to make a request on your behalf through providing us with a signed written authorization or a copy of a power of attorney.
