YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

Under California’s “Shine the Light” law, California residents have the right to opt out of disclosing personal information to third parties for the purpose of allowing such third parties to directly market their products and services. If you wish to opt out, you may do so in accordance with the terms set forth in this Policy. Under California law (and as a result of your ability to opt out as set forth in this Policy), we are not required to maintain or disclose a list of third parties that received your personal information for marketing purposes.

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), California consumers have the following rights, which can be exercised directly or in certain cases, through an authorized agent:

Right to Know. California customers have the right to request information about the categories and sources of personal information we collect, our purposes for collecting the information, and the types of third parties that receive that information. Details about our data collection, use and third-party disclosures can be found in this Policy. In addition, they have the right to request a copy of their personal information. They may exercise this right once every twelve (12) months by submitting a request to us at support@versusgame.com.
Right to Delete. California customers have the right to request that we delete some or all of the personal information that we have about them, subject to certain exceptions (i.e. information used to provide services, complete transactions, honor opt-outs, prevent fraud, spam, and other abuse, comply with our legal obligations, cooperate with law enforcement, and to exercise and defend our rights). They may exercise their right to delete by contacting us at support@versusgame.com.
Right to Opt-Out of Sale of Personal Information. California customers have the right to opt out of the sale of their personal information, and to request information about whether we have sold their personal information in the past twelve (12) months. We do not sell personal information. Should such change, we will notify users and provide an ability to opt out as required.
Non-Discrimination. We won’t discriminate against anyone because they exercise any rights herein.

To exercise your rights to know and delete, we must be able to verify your identity as the owner of the Account and/or personal information you are inquiring about. We will not be able to fulfill your request until we can do so. In general, we verify identity by confirming that you are the owner of the email address associated with the Account. An authorized agent submitting a request on your behalf must also have access to the email address associated with the Account, along with sufficient evidence that you have authorized that person to submit the request on your behalf.

DATA SECURITY

We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers behind firewalls. Any payment transactions will be encrypted using commercially reasonable means. We will require any third party to whom we provide your personal information to agree to comply with our Policy in force at that time or requirements substantially similar to such policy. We will make reasonable commercial efforts to ensure that they comply with such policy or requirements, however, where not expressly prohibited by law, we will have no liability to you if any third party fails to do so. We shall require any third party, including without limitation any government or enforcement entity, seeking access to data to obtain a court order, or equivalent proof that they are statutorily empowered to access your data and that their request is valid and within their power.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Website or the Services, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
