1. When does ZoneK collect your personal information?
ZoneK collects your personal information at different times when you interact with our Services, including when you buy our products, or otherwise contact us. Generally, personal information is collected when (a) you use a Service, (b) you create an Account, (c) you make a purchase within our Services, (d) you create user generated content, (e) you watch advertisements within our Services, (f) you sign up to a newsletter, (g) you contact ZoneK customer service and during technical support sessions, (h) you enter into a contest or sweepstake, (i) you chat with other users of the Services, (j) you wish to participate in a beta or otherwise download a patch or a demo and (k) you share or otherwise contribute to our social media channels and other community websites.
Whatever the activity may be, we will only collect personal information to the extent deemed reasonably necessary to fulfil your requests and our legitimate business objectives.
2. What personal information does ZoneK collect?
To access certain Services, you will need a ZoneK Account. During the creation of your Account, we will ask your nickname, password, email address, date of birth (or age) and country of origin. This information is mandatory to create an Account. On other Services, ZoneK may ask you additional personal information relevant to the Service such as your phone number, home address or geo-location information (for example, you will be asked your home address when purchasing a product within our online shop, in order for ZoneK to deliver the product to your home address). Visitors purchasing goods or services through our online store will need to provide a valid credit card number and expiration date, in addition to the credit card holder's name, date of birth, mailing address, phone number and e-mail address. In addition, we may collect demographic information such as your age, gender, favourite styles of gaming and the device you own or plan to buy. Note that ZoneK does not collect nor store any credit or debit card or other banking data.
ZoneK collects personal information via internet forms. For example, a new user to any of the Services may be asked to register by providing his or her name, date of birth or age, phone number, and home address. This information will then be associated with your Account, so that you may identify yourself during future visits to each of the Services. ZoneK also stores and maintains personal information that you submit to us in an e-mail or that you post on our bulletin board.
ZoneK may also collect personal information on third party network, platform or service: by playing a ZoneK game through a social network or other third party platform, or by connecting to such a third party network, platform or service via one of our products and/or Services, you are authorizing ZoneK to (1) collect, store, and use, in accordance with this Privacy Policy, any and all personal information that you agreed the social network or other third party platform could provide to ZoneK based on your settings on the third party social network or platform and (2) share any and all of your personal information with the social network or other third party platform, through the social network/third party platform’s Application Programming Interface (API). Your agreement to this takes place when you connect with the third party network, platform or service via our products and/or services, and/or when you connect with, "accept" or "allow" (or similar terms) one of our applications through a social network, or other third party platform or service.
3. What happens if I refuse to provide my personal information?
If you do not submit personal information when asked by ZoneK, your refusal may limit our ability to process your online product registration, Account creation, contest registration, purchase via our online store, or request for technical support.
4. What about other websites?
This Privacy Policy applies only to the Services on which this Privacy Policy is made available by ZoneK and not to websites, networks or platforms maintained by other companies or organizations to which we may provide links. Please note, however, that when you link to foreign sites or any other third party sites from our Services, this Privacy Policy no longer applies. ZoneK does not control the activities on those third party services and cannot and does not guarantee the security of any personal information disclosed on those third party services.
5. Does ZoneK make my personal information public? Who can see my personal information?
ZoneK Services, including Uplay.com, may offer a public profile feature ("Public Profile") that allows you to publish information, including personal information, to the public Internet. Other than as stated on the applicable Public Profile site, the information you upload or input to your Public Profile will default to the privacy level you choose at sign-in, and you can choose to change the privacy settings at any time. By default, certain aspects of the Public Profile are set to "public". Those aspects of the Public Profile that are designated as "public" will be visible by everyone, including people not registered within the ZoneK environment, and may be indexed and displayed through public search engines when someone searches for you. If you post your personal information to a Public Profile, including a video, image or photo, you should be aware that these may be viewed, collected, copied and/or used by other users without your consent. We are not responsible for disclosure by other users of your Personal Information, including without limitation, videos, images or photos that you choose to submit on the ZoneK Services. Also, please remember that the Personal Information you provide to us as part of your Public Profile may reveal or allow others to identify aspects of your life that you may not choose to state on your Public Profile directly (for example, your picture may reveal your gender).
Certain Services may feature a friend finder tool. By using our friend finder tools, you acknowledge that use of these tools will help you find your contacts and will also allow your contacts to associate your Uplay Account, other ZoneK accounts if any (and related gaming entitlements, including games played on PC, mobile and console platforms) with your social networking profile and/or email address. Your resulting friends' list, which may be accessible across ZoneK sites, will be subject to this Privacy Policy. Note that the friends that you choose to include on any friends' list may be able to find and/or identify you in the context of different ZoneK products and Services, and may see the profiles and information you have made visible to them or to everyone. Similarly, ZoneK may also collect or receive information about you from other ZoneK users who choose to upload their email and other contacts. This information will be stored by us and used primarily to help you and your friends connect.
6. Does ZoneK Use Cookies, Track IP Addresses or Use Other Passive Means to Collect Information?
Cookies. ZoneK uses cookies on the Services. A "cookie" is a small bit of record-keeping information that web sites often store on a user's computer. Cookies do not include people's names, e-mail addresses, or other information that is personally identifiable; they are typically used to quickly identify a user's computer and to "remember" things about the user's visit. ZoneK may set cookies for your web browser as you visit our websites, use our products or visit a website where ZoneK provides ads, content or analytics. For example, ZoneK uses cookies to keep track of selected items in your shopping cart on our online store and to remember your Account identifier. You can disable cookies or set your browser to alert you when cookies are being sent to your computer, although this may affect your ability to shop online or to access certain features of our Services. Each browser is different, so check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences. In addition to ZoneK using cookies on our network of websites, ZoneK may allow certain partners to set and access their cookies on your computer. These companies use of cookies is subject to their own privacy policies, not the ZoneK Privacy Policy. Please review them carefully. For more information about cookies, please see http://www.allaboutcookies.org. You can see the list of companies that may implement and/or access cookies on your computer, mobile or device, and how to opt-out to such cookies at /
IP addresses. ZoneK also keep tracks of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for safety and security reasons. An IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer every time you log on to the Internet.
Other passively collected information. ZONEK may on its own, or with the help of third party analytics tools, collect non-personally identifiable information concerning your and other users’ gaming hardware, habits, behaviours and use of our Services. ZONEK collects such information to better adapt our Services to users’ interests and for a better quality of our Services. The information collected may contain the following, without limitation: device unique identity, including MAC address, console, mobile, tablet and console unique identifier or other device identifiers and settings, internet provider, carrier, operating system, hardware information, localization information, date and time spent on the Services, game scores, game metrics, achievements, rankings, time played and statistics, feature usage, advertising conversion rates, monetization rate, purchase history and other similar information.

The analytics tools and ad serving technologies may use server log files, web beacons, cookies, tracking pixels and other technologies to collect said information and may combine the information collected on other ZONEK Services with information collected from other third party websites, products and services and with demographic, advertisement, market and other analytics surveys. Standing alone, this information is not personal data; however, if ZONEK combines any of this information with personal data, ZONEK will treat this information as personal data pursuant to this Privacy Policy. You will find a list of our partners whose analytic tools and ad serving technologies are used in our Services at /. ZONEK makes its best efforts to provide You with the links to our partners’ own privacy policies according to which their tools and technologies are used and when available the link to allow You to opt-out from their services
Information passively collected by ZoneK may be used in an aggregated form or to identify specific patterns of you or any individual.
7. Who is collecting my personal information and how will it be used?
The information you submit to our Services is collected and used by ZoneK as set out in this Privacy Policy. In addition, ZoneK may use the submitted information to send you advertising or promotional materials, including information about special rebates, promotional offers and other events of interest in accordance with your choices.

Additionally, ZoneK may use your personal information outside of its Services to provide you with products, services or advertisements we believe may be of interest to you.
From time to time, ZoneK may employ third-party vendors, to collect personal information on ZoneK's behalf for technical purposes. These third parties provide internal support to ZoneK by operating some of the Services we provide you, including without limitation email services, payment processing within our Services or our online shop, and for online product fulfilment. If we solicit third parties to collect personal information on our behalf, we require all such third parties to comply with and adhere to this Privacy Policy.

Please be aware that your personal information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in Canada.

Please be aware that ZoneK may duplicate your information within ZoneK’s own databases for technical purposes or for the uses described in this Privacy Policy.
8. With whom does ZoneK share my personal information?
ZoneK may share your personal information among the ZoneK group of companies and with its technical partners described in Section 7. This sharing enables us to provide you with information about our Services, which might interest you. To the extent that our corporate affiliates and/or technical partners have access to your information, they will follow practices that are at least as restrictive as the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
From time to time, we are approached by companies and organizations that provide products or services that we believe may be of interest to you, and we may share your personal information with such third parties in accordance with your choices and after we received your consent. We strive to limit use of the information you provide to those offers that we think you would appreciate receiving. If you do not wish to receive information from these third party partners, you can opt out at any time, including at the time of registration, by sending a request to us (see Section 13) or by modifying our preferences in your Account preferences page.

No other personal information such as your credit card information or address will be exchanged with such parties.
Custom Content. We may work with trusted marketing partners to bring you more useful and interesting advertising content on our Services and on third party sites and services. We may do this by sharing or matching the personal information you have provided us on the Services with the information (which may include personal information) you have provided third parties marketing partners. If you do not want ZoneK to match your personal information with trusted partners in order for us to tailor ads or other custom content for you on our Services and third party sites and services, please do not check the box labelled "Share my information with selected third parties" at the moment of creation of your Account or within your Account settings at any time.

ZoneK reserves the right to request written proof of the parent or guardian’s authorization at any time.
