The information we collect may include personal information such as your name, date of birth, e-mail address, phone number, fax number and 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, 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 systems you own or plan to buy. App Wave Studios collects personal information via conventional Internet forms. For example, a new user to any of the Services may be asked to register by providing his or her name, phone number, fax number, and home address. This information will then be associated with your e-mail account, so that you may identify yourself during future visits to each of the Services. App Wave Studios also stores and maintains personal information that you submit to us in an e-mail or that you post on our bulletin board.

What happens if I refuse to provide my personal information?
If you do not submit personal information when asked by App Wave Studios, your refusal may limit our ability to process your online product registration, contest registration, purchase via our online store, or request for technical support. However, you do not need to provide personal information to App Wave Studios in order to access and use the Services.

What about other websites?
In addition to the Services, App Wave Studios also owns several other domain names that may provide links to the Services. We may from time to time also offer new websites that may or may not be Services. Please note, however, that this policy applies only to the Services on which this Privacy Statement is made available by App Wave Studios and not to websites 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. App Wave Studios 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.

Does App Wave Studios Use Cookies, Track IP Addresses or Use Other Passive Means to Collect Information?
App Wave Studios 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. For example, App Wave Studios uses cookies to keep track of selected items in your shopping cart and to remember your login name and password. Any information collected this way is held only up until midnight of the same day, at which point, the information is deleted. 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. For more information about cookies, please see http://www.allaboutcookies.org

App Wave Studios 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. The only other information passively collected by App Wave Studios is in the form of logs - files that record web site activity, including how many "hits" a particular web page is getting (a.k.a. "click-through data"). This information is used in an aggregated form and not to identify specific use patterns of you or any individual. These entries enable App Wave Studios to assess overall site activity, track interest in advertised sales, and troubleshoot technical concerns. We also use the log file entries for our internal marketing and demographic studies, so we can constantly improve the referral services we provide you.

App Wave Studios may collect information regarding the user's behaviour, and his/her use of App Wave Studios's demos and in-game data such as achievements, rankings, time played to better adapt our products and services to users' interests and for a better quality of our services.

Does App Wave Studios Collect Personal Information from Children Under 12?
App Wave Studios encourages parents and guardians to spend time online with their children. We urge parents to instruct their children to never give out their real names, addresses or phone numbers, without permission, when using the Internet. We recognize a special obligation to protect personal information obtained from young children. Therefore, in order for children under 12 years old to register on any Service, , we require that the child provides the email address of a parent or guardian who will be contacted by App Wave Studios in order to confirm, modify or refuse his or her child’s registration. App Wave Studios reserves the right to request written proof of the parent or guardian's authorization at any time. If the parent or guardian does not answer within 30 days of App Wave Studios’s email, the child's personal information will be deleted and his or her registration refused.'
