Information Collected

Some of the areas of the World Wide Federation of Gaming web site are freely available to all visitors. However, use of certain areas of the web site, such as our Forums requires registration with World Wide Federation of Gaming. Our registration form requires you to provide contact information (your name and address) and demographic information (your gender and age). As a registered user you can correct and update your user information at any time by following the link marked "My Account” and logging in.

This site supplements the information you provide with information received from third parties. We also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer the web site, and to gather broad demographic information (for example, what percent of our users come to us through AOL).

Use of Information Collected

This web site has security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control.

Your contact information is used to send you information about World Wide Federation of Gaming and promotional materials from some of our partner companies. It is also used to contact you directly when necessary. You may decline to receive future mailings by opting out our contact page.

Demographic and profile data is also collected by World Wide Federation of Gaming. This data is used to tailor your World Wide Federation of Gaming experience, including showing content we think you may be interested in viewing, displaying content according to your preferences, and for other purposes. This demographic and profile data is shared with our advertisers on an aggregate basis.

In special cases, we may disclose user information when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating World Wide Federation of Gaming' Terms of Service or may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) the World Wide Federation of Gaming web site, other World Wide Federation of Gaming users, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities. World Wide Federation of Gaming may disclose or access user information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

Contests and Surveys

We occasionally run contests on our site in which we ask visitors for contact information, such as e-mail address, and demographic information, such as zip code or age. We use this data to send users information about World Wide Federation of Gaming and promotional materials from some of our partner companies. It is also used to contact the visitor when necessary. Our online surveys ask visitors for demographic information such as zip code or age.

Some of the contests or surveys running on World Wide Federation of Gaming may be sponsored by third-party companies or may be co-sponsored by World Wide Federation of Gaming and a third-party company. In such cases, the third-party company may need to collect personal identifier information from you. If the contest or survey is being co-sponsored, some or all of the data collected may be shared with the co-sponsor. If data will be shared, you will be notified prior to the time of data collection or transfer. If you do not want your personal information handled by other companies, you can choose not to participate in the contest or survey.

Cookies

World Wide Federation of Gaming may use cookies (small files that are stored on your computer's hard drive and are accessible by our web server) to store and sometimes track information about you. We may also use cookies to deliver content that is specific to your interests and to save your password so you do not need to re-enter it each time you visit our site.

Outside companies display their advertising on our site. These ads may contain cookies, which are collected and maintained by the advertising company. World Wide Federation of Gaming does not have access to these cookies. Some of the customer data collected by World Wide Federation of Gaming is shared with the advertising companies.

Most web browsers default to accepting cookies from web servers. If you choose, you can set your browser to refuse all cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being sent. Please be aware that some parts of the World Wide Federation of Gaming web site may not function properly or may operate at a slower speed if you refuse to accept cookies.

World Wide Federation of Gaming occasionally provides links to third-party web sites. World Wide Federation of Gaming is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such third-party web sites.

Public Forums

World Wide Federation of Gaming makes chat rooms, forums, message boards, and/or newsgroups available to its users. Please remember that any information disclosed in these areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution when revealing personal details. Such information can be collected and used by people not affiliated with World Wide Federation of Gaming, and therefore we cannot guarantee the security of any information disclosed in these public forums.

Children's Guidelines

World Wide Federation of Gaming cares about the safety of children online. This site is a general audience web site that complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). We only collect personal information from members.
