While we do not disclose personal information in exchange for monetary compensation, we may make certain categories of personal information available in order to receive certain benefits or services, such as when we make browsing information available to third party ad companies (through third party tags on our sites) in order to improve and measure our ad campaigns and reach users with more relevant ads and content.

We may share your information with other players (your in-game nickname and avatar only), our business partners, service providers, affiliates and subsidiaries, advertising and promotional agencies and networks, consultants and those organisations or online platforms selected by us to carry out marketing campaigns on our behalf and to advertise their own products or services that may be of interest to you.

B. CCPA Rights

In general, California residents have the following rights with respect to your personal information:

Do-not-sell (opt-out): to opt-out of our sale of your personal information. While we may "sell" personal information as defined by the CCPA, we do not sell personal information about California consumers who we know are younger than 13 years old.

Right of deletion: to request deletion of their personal information that we have collected about you and to have such personal information deleted (without charge), subject to certain exceptions.

Right to know: with respect to the personal information we have collected about you in the prior 12 months, to require that we disclose the following to you (up to twice per year and subject to certain exemptions):

When you submit any request, we will take steps to verify your request by asking you some questions about in-game experience and matching the information provided by you with the information we have in our records. You must answer the questions to verify your request. In some cases, we may request additional information in order to verify your request or where necessary to process your request. If we are unable to adequately verify a request, we will notify the requestor. Authorized agents may initiate a request on behalf of another individual by contacting us via as set forth above. Authorized agents will be required to provide proof of their authorization and we may also require that the relevant consumer directly verify their identity and the authority of the authorized agent.

A cookie is a small text file that we transfer to your computer or mobile devices' hard disk, to quickly identify a user's computer or mobile devices and to "remember" things about your visit, such as your preferences or a user name and password.

If our use of cookies changes, we will post the changes to this policy. Please check frequently as online information collection practices and our use of them continue to evolve. To contact us about this policy, you may email app@cookingfuns.com.

11. SECURITY

We take reasonable administrative, logical, physical and managerial measures in order to protect your personal information against loss, theft and unauthorized access, use and modification. These measures are designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risks of processing your personal information. For example, we use firewalls, encryption technology and other automated software designed to protect against fraud and identity theft. We strictly prohibit any user unreasonably using the privacy of others obtained during the use of the Services.

We do not knowingly collect any personal information from such children. In the event that we learn that we have inadvertently gathered personal information from children under the age of 13, we will take reasonable measures to promptly erase such information from our records.
