Should you have any questions relating to this Privacy Policy, please contact LBG at contact@littlebeargames.com.

LBG reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy at reasonable times, so please review it frequently. Your continued use of Services will signify your acceptance of the changes to this Privacy Policy.

1. Non-personal Data

For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “non-personal data” means information that does not directly identify you. Additionally, non-personal data means “aggregate” and “de-personalized” information, which is data LBG collects about the use of LBG Services, from which any personally identifiable data has been removed.

LBG may use tools or third party analytical software to automatically collect and use certain non-personal data that does not directly enable LBG to identify you.

LBG may use third-party analytics tool, such as Google Analytics, or Flurry Analytics, in order to develop and analyze use of the Services. Analytics companies may access anonymous data (such as your IP address or device ID) to help us understand how Services are used.

LBG may use personal and non-personal data, both individually and combined together, for purposes of analyzing usage of the Services, providing customer and technical support, managing and providing Services (including managing advertisement serving), customizing LBG's communications and to further develop the Services and other LBG services and products. LBG may combine non-personal data with personal data.

From time to time, LBG may ask you to complete a voluntary survey in order to help LBG provide a better user experience. LBG will only request and therefore collect non-personal data.

LBG may use your personal data to send messages to you with informative and/or commercial content about LBG's services or third party products and services LBG thinks may be of interest to you, such as new features and services, special offers and updated information.

3. Ad Serving Technology

LBG reserves the right to use and disclose the collected non-personal data for purposes of advertisement by LBG or LBG's partners and contractors. LBG may employ third party ad serving technologies that use certain methods to collect information as a result of ad serving through Services. LBG or third parties operating the ad serving technology may use demographic and location information as well as information logged from your hardware or device to ensure that appropriate advertising is presented within the Service. LBG or third parties may collect and use data for this purpose including, but not limited to IP address (including but not limited to for purposes of determining your coarse location), Device ID, MAC, software, applications, hardware, and in-game information. The foregoing data may be used and disclosed in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the privacy policy of the company providing the ad serving technology.

You recognize and agree that the advertising companies who deliver ads for LBG may combine the information collected with other information they have independently collected from other services or products. These companies collect and use information under their own privacy policies. These ad serving technologies are integrated into Services; if you do not want to be subject to this technology, do not use or access Services. Although LBG takes commercially reasonable steps to instruct such advertising companies to comply with the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, LBG does not have access to or control of third party technologies.

LBG may display to you behaviorally targeted advertising. If you wish to “opt out” of certain targeted advertising, please visit http://www.youradchoices.com and/or www.networkadvertising.org. If you want to be certain that no behaviorally targeted advertisements are not displayed to you, please do not use or access the Services. Additionally please note that if you “opt out” it does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising. It just means that the advertising you see displayed will not be customized to you and your interests and may be less relevant to you.

4. Location Data

LBG does not use or collect your precise geographic location.

5. Data Retention

LBG retains the data collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Thereafter if the collected data is no longer needed for purposes specified in this Privacy Policy, LBG deletes all aforementioned data in its possession within a reasonable timeframe.

Irrespective of the above, LBG may still retain some of the data to the extent such retention is necessary to resolve disputes, enforce LBG user agreements, and comply with technical and legal requirements and constraints related to the security, integrity, and operation of Services.

Information LBG collects may be stored or processed on computers located in any country where LBG does business.
