Welcome to MOOFUN LTD. (hereinafter referred to as "we", "us", or "the Company"). This Privacy Policy is crafted to comprehensively explain how we collect, utilize, store, and safeguard your personal information when you engage with our casual gaming services. It also details the rights you hold regarding your data. Please read this policy attentively before using our services. By accessing or using our services, you consent to the practices described herein.
At MOOFUN LTD., we are dedicated to offering you top-notch, personalized casual gaming
experiences. To achieve this, we gather different types of information while you are
using our games. The collection of this information is aimed at enhancing service
functionality, improving service quality, and tailoring the gaming experience to your
individual preferences. The information we collect encompasses personal information,
game-related data, automatically-generated technical data, and information obtained from
third-party sources in specific circumstances.
(I) Personal Information
To build a more customized and secure gaming environment for you, we collect
certain personal information when you register for a gaming account, make in-game
purchases, participate in special game events, or interact with our customer support.
This information is crucial for us to precisely identify you and manage your account
effectively.
• Collected Content: We may collect your name, email address,
phone number, date of birth, gender, payment details (such as credit card information or
payment account numbers), and the username and password you create for our gaming
platform. If you choose to log in via third-party social media platforms like Facebook
or Google, we will also obtain some of your publicly available information from those
platforms, such as your profile picture, nickname, and friend list, depending on the
permissions you grant.
• Collection Purpose: The collected personal information is
used to create and maintain your gaming account. It enables us to provide you with
dedicated customer support, efficiently process in-game purchases, and send you
important notifications, including game updates, security alerts, and event reminders.
We also use this information to personalize your gaming experience. For example, we can
recommend games or in-game items based on your age, gender, and gaming history. We are
acutely aware of the significance of privacy protection and only collect the information
that is essential for providing and enhancing our services.
(II) Game Data
To customize your gaming experience and continuously refine our services, we
gather data about your in-game activities. Analyzing this data helps us understand how
you interact with our games, allowing us to offer more relevant content and improve the
game's mechanics.
• Collected Content: This includes your game progress (such as
the levels you've completed, the scores you've achieved), the time you spend playing,
the achievements you've unlocked, your interactions with other players (like chat
messages, trading activities, and team), and your purchase history. We also record which
game features you use frequently, the types of challenges you attempt, and how you
respond to different in-game events.
• Collection Purpose: Our goal is to offer you personalized
gaming content. For instance, if you often play a particular game mode, we can recommend
similar or more advanced modes. By analyzing your game performance, we can optimize the
game's difficulty level to keep it challenging yet enjoyable. We use this data to
monitor your progress and provide targeted advertising or promotions. If you've been
struggling to pass a certain level, we might send you an offer for a power-up item.
Additionally, the data helps us enhance the game's performance, fix bugs, and improve
the overall gaming experience for all users.
(III) Automatically Collected Information
While you use our services, we automatically collect certain technical data
through various technologies. This data is invaluable for analyzing game trends,
monitoring usage patterns, and ensuring the smooth operation of our services.
• Collected Content: We collect your IP address, device
identifier (such as IMEI for mobile devices, MAC address for network devices), browser
type, operating system information (including the version and language settings),
browser language, screen resolution, and details of your browsing activity. The browsing
activity data includes the pages you visit within our gaming platform, the time you
spend on each page, the links you click, and the frequency of your actions. We also
record the time when you start and stop playing a game.
• Collection Purpose: This data is mainly used to offer
technical support. For example, if you encounter a problem with the game, we can use
this information to diagnose and resolve the issue. It helps us ensure that all
functions of our services work properly. By analyzing the data, we can detect potential
problems in advance, such as server-side issues or compatibility problems with certain
devices. We use this information to optimize the performance of our website and games.
For example, if we notice that a large number of users on a particular device are
experiencing lag, we can focus on optimizing the game for that device. Moreover, it
enables us to understand players' usage habits, which is useful for improving our
marketing strategies and detecting potential security threats.
(IV) Information from Third-Party Integrations
Our services may integrate with third-party platforms, such as payment gateways,
social media networks, analytics providers, and advertising partners. These third
parties collect additional information from you according to their own privacy policies.
• Collection Purpose: Integrating with third-party payment
gateways allows for seamless in-game purchases, enhancing your user experience.
Connecting with social media platforms enables you to share your gaming achievements
easily, adding a social aspect to the gaming experience. Third-party analytics providers
help us understand how you interact with our games in more detail, so we can improve the
services. Advertising partners help us deliver relevant ads. We carefully select and
screen these third-party partners to ensure they adhere to our strict privacy and
security standards. We have agreements in place with them to protect your information
and ensure that they use the data only for the purposes specified in our contracts.
The information we collect is primarily used to enhance your gaming experience,
customize content to your preferences, and ensure you have access to the latest features
and updates. Additionally, your data helps us maintain the security of our games,
display relevant advertisements, and comply with legal obligations.
(I) Providing and Improving Services
Your personal information and game data are the cornerstones of providing you
with a personalized gaming experience.
• Processing Method: We use this data to customize the game
content specifically for you. If you prefer a certain genre of games, we can recommend
new games or in-game content within that genre. We also use the data to suggest in-game
items that match your playing style. For example, if you often play as a certain
character in a role-playing game, we can recommend items that enhance that character's
abilities. To optimize game performance, we analyze usage data. If we notice that a
particular area of the game is causing performance issues for many players, we can focus
on improving that part of the game. We monitor usage to identify areas for improvement,
such as improving the user interface or adding new features based on player feedback and
data analysis.
• Benefits for You: By tailoring the game to your preferences,
we create a more enjoyable, responsive, and engaging gaming environment. You'll
encounter content that suits your interests, which makes the gaming experience more
fulfilling. The game will run more smoothly, reducing any technical glitches that could
disrupt your gameplay. You'll also benefit from new features and improvements that are
based on the analysis of your usage data, ensuring that the game evolves to meet your
needs.
(II) Advertising and Marketing
Your data enables us to display advertisements and promotions that are relevant
to your interests, both within and outside the game.
• Processing Method: Using advanced data analytics and
algorithms, we analyze your personal information, game data, and browsing history to
understand your interests. Based on this understanding, we display targeted
advertisements and promotional content. We might show you ads for new games that are
similar to the ones you've played, or promotions for in-game items that you're likely to
use. We may also send you emails or in-game notifications about new games, updates, or
special in-game events that align with your interests.
• Benefits for You: You'll receive customized offers and
advertisements that match your gaming style and preferences. This not only makes the
gaming experience more interesting but also helps you discover new games and in-game
content that you might enjoy. For example, if you're a fan of puzzle games, you'll see
ads for new puzzle games or exclusive offers for puzzle-game-related items. If you don't
wish to receive personalized ads, we respect your choice. You can easily opt out through
the in-game settings or the unsubscribe link provided in our promotional emails.
(III) Ensuring Game Security
To maintain the fairness and security of our games, we use the collected
information for security monitoring and risk assessment.
• Processing Method: We analyze your game behavior data, login
information, and device information to identify any abnormal activities. Our security
systems use machine-learning algorithms to detect patterns that may indicate cheating,
such as unusual score increases or repeated attempts to exploit game glitches. If we
detect an abnormal login location or suspicious behavior, we may require you to verify
your identity through additional security measures, such as two-factor authentication.
• Benefits for You: This helps protect your account from
unauthorized access and ensures that you play in a fair and secure environment. You
won't have to worry about cheaters ruining your gaming experience, and your personal
information and gaming progress are better protected. It also contributes to the overall
health of the gaming community, making it more enjoyable for all players.
(IV) Legal Compliance
We use your information in accordance with applicable laws and regulations to
ensure the legality of our business operations.
• Processing Method: We ensure that all our data collection and
processing activities comply with relevant data protection laws, such as obtaining your
consent when required, providing clear information about data collection and use, and
implementing appropriate security measures. We keep records of our data-handling
activities to demonstrate compliance.
• Benefits for You: You can use our services with confidence,
knowing that your information is being handled in a legal and responsible manner. You
have the assurance that your rights under data protection laws are being respected, and
you can seek redress if you believe your rights have been violated.
We understand the critical importance of data security and are committed to storing your
data securely and protecting it from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.
(I) Data Storage
We store your personal information and game data on secure servers protected by
industry-standard encryption protocols and strict access control measures.
• Storage Location: Our data is stored in secure data centers
located in multiple regions. These data centers are equipped with state-of-the-art
physical and digital security measures. The physical security includes surveillance
systems, restricted access areas, and environmental controls. Digital security measures
include firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and data encryption.
• Storage Purpose: Storing your data allows us to continuously
provide services to you. We can access your game progress and settings to resume your
gameplay from where you left off. It enables us to send you personalized updates and
offers based on your gaming history. We can also use the data to provide customer
support and resolve any issues you may encounter. During your use of our services, we
take every possible step to ensure the security of your data.
(II) Data Retention
We retain your personal data for the period necessary to achieve the purposes
stated in this Privacy Policy or as required by law. Typically, depending on the nature
of the information and the services provided, we retain data for 3-5 years.
• Retention Purpose: Retaining data is essential for legal,
business, and operational reasons. Legally, we may need to retain data to comply with
tax regulations, auditing requirements, or to respond to legal requests. From a business
perspective, it helps us analyze long-term user trends, improve our services over time,
and maintain customer relationships. Operationally, it allows us to resolve disputes,
fulfill contractual obligations, and provide historical data for users upon request.
• Deletion Processing Method: If you request the deletion of
your personal data, we will follow the procedures set by applicable laws to remove the
relevant data from our systems. You can contact our dedicated customer support team at
any time to request the deletion of your account and personal data. We will verify your
identity before processing the request to ensure the security of your data. After
verification, we will permanently delete your data from our servers, making it
unrecoverable.
(III) Data Security
Despite implementing comprehensive and stringent security measures, we
acknowledge that the network environment is complex, and no system can be completely
secure. We use encryption, regular data backups, and secure servers to minimize risks.
• Security Measures: We employ strong encryption algorithms to
protect sensitive data, such as your payment information and login credentials.
Firewalls are set up to block unauthorized external access to our servers. We conduct
regular security audits to identify and address any potential vulnerabilities in our
systems. Our employees are trained on data security best practices to ensure that they
handle your data with care. We also use intrusion prevention systems to detect and
prevent any unauthorized access attempts.
• What Cannot Be Guaranteed: Due to the open nature of the
Internet, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of data transmitted over the
network. Hackers may attempt to breach our security measures, although we do everything
possible to prevent such incidents. We are constantly striving to maintain the highest
security standards. We recommend that you also take steps to protect your own data, such
as using strong passwords, keeping your devices updated with the latest security
patches, and being cautious when sharing information online.
(IV) Legal Compliance and Security
We are firmly committed to protecting your data and complying with all
applicable laws and regulations. In certain situations, we may need to disclose your
data.
• Processing Method: When required by law, such as in response
to a valid court order or a government investigation, or when it is necessary to protect
our legitimate rights and interests (for example, to prevent fraud or protect the
integrity of our games), we will share your data in accordance with the law. We will
ensure that any disclosure is made in a legal and proper manner, and we will only share
the minimum amount of data necessary for the specific purpose.
• Reason for Disclosure: Complying with legal requirements is
essential to maintain the legality of our business operations. Responding to legal
requests helps us cooperate with law-enforcement agencies and uphold the law. Protecting
our legitimate rights and interests, such as preventing cheating in games or protecting
our intellectual property, is crucial for the continued operation and success of our
services. Although we prioritize your privacy, we may share data when legally required
or when it is necessary to protect the safety and well-being of our users.
You have the right to manage your personal data and make choices regarding how it is
used. The following outlines the rights you enjoy under applicable data protection laws.
(I) Access and Update
You can access and update your personal information at any time through the
in-game account settings or by contacting our customer support team.
• Actions: You can view your personal details, such as your
name, email address, and payment information. You can correct any inaccuracies, for
example, if you've changed your email address or if there's an error in your name. You
can also update other information, like your password for security reasons or your
preferences for in-game notifications.
• Importance: Keeping your information accurate and up-to-date
is crucial for us to provide you with the best possible service. It ensures that you
receive important notifications at the correct contact information. Accurate personal
information also allows us to personalize your gaming experience more effectively,
tailoring our recommendations and services to your actual situation.
(II) Account Deletion
If you no longer wish to use our services or want to exercise your right to
delete data, you can choose to delete your account or request that we stop processing
your personal data. Please note that deleting your account will result in the loss of
all your game progress, purchased content, and saved settings.
• Deletion Method: You can submit a deletion request through
the in-game account management section or contact our customer support team. We will
guide you through the process and verify your identity to ensure the security of your
account.
• Reason for Deletion: You may choose to delete your account if
you no longer enjoy our games, want to protect your privacy, or have decided to stop
using our services for any other reason. We respect your decision and will handle your
deletion request in accordance with applicable laws, ensuring that your data is removed
from our systems as required.
(III) Data Portability and Correction
You have the right to request a copy of your personal data and correct any
inaccurate information.
• Request Content: You can ask us to provide you with a copy of
the personal data we hold about you in a commonly used and machine-readable format. If
you notice any inaccuracies in your data, such as incorrect game progress records or
personal details, you can request that we correct them.
• Importance: Obtaining a copy of your data gives you the
ability to transfer it to another service or simply keep a backup for your own records.
Correcting inaccurate data ensures that our services are based on correct information,
which is important for a personalized and accurate gaming experience. It also upholds
your rights under data protection laws, allowing you to have control over your personal
information.
(IV) Restriction of Data Processing
Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we restrict the
processing of your personal data.
• Applicable Situations: If you believe that the data we have
about you is inaccurate and you want us to pause processing until the accuracy is
verified, or if you object to our processing of your data based on our legitimate
interests and are waiting for us to assess your objection, you can request a
restriction. Another situation could be when you have withdrawn your consent for data
processing, but we are still determining if there are other legal grounds for
processing.
• Our Response: When you make a restriction request, we will
stop processing your data, except for activities related to the verification of data
accuracy or as otherwise required by law. We will communicate with you during this
process to address your concerns and resolve the issues promptly. Once the situation is
resolved, we will resume or continue processing your data based on the outcome.
(V) Objection to Data Processing
You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data under
certain conditions, especially when we process your data based on our legitimate
interests.
• Conditions and Process: If you believe that our data
processing is causing you harm or is not in line with your legitimate interests, you can
object. You can send us a written objection through email or other communication
channels specified by us. We will then review your objection and assess whether our
legitimate interests still justify the processing.
• Consequences: If we determine that your objection is valid,
we will stop the relevant data-processing activities. If we believe that we still have a
legitimate reason to continue processing, we will explain our reasons to you. You have
the right to seek further legal remedies if you are not satisfied with our decision.
We are committed to safeguarding your personal data and will not sell it to third
parties for their independent marketing purposes. However, in specific circumstances, we
may share your personal data with third parties while ensuring strict compliance with
privacy and security standards.
(I) Sharing with Third Parties
We collaborate with various third-party service providers to enhance our
services, and in the process, some of your data may be shared. These third-party
partners include payment processors, customer support service providers, and data
analytics firms.
• Shared Content: We may share your account-related information
such as your username, account creation date, and account status. Payment-related
details like transaction amounts, payment methods, and payment timestamps are shared
with payment processors to facilitate in-game purchases. Game-related data, including
your progress, achievements, and in-game behavior patterns, may be shared with analytics
providers for service improvement. Also, if you contact our customer support, the
communication records, including your messages and the details of your issues, might be
shared with relevant support service providers to resolve your problems.
• Reason for Sharing: Sharing data with payment processors is
essential for seamless and secure in-game transactions. By sharing information with
customer support service providers, we can ensure that your inquiries and issues are
addressed promptly and effectively. Data analytics firms help us understand user
behavior and preferences, enabling us to enhance our games, develop new features, and
improve the overall user experience. We have strict contracts with these third-party
partners, obliging them to protect your data with the same level of security and privacy
as we do. They are not permitted to use your data for any purpose other than fulfilling
the services they provide to us.
(II) Third-Party Advertising
Our services may incorporate advertising from third-party networks. To enable
these advertisers to deliver targeted ads based on your interests and activities, we
share certain non-personal data.
• Shared Content: The non-personal data shared typically
includes your device-related information such as device type, model, and screen
resolution. We also share information about your browsing and gaming activities, like
the games you play, the time spent in each game, and the pages you visit within our
gaming platforms. However, this data is anonymized and aggregated, meaning it cannot be
directly linked back to you as an individual.
• Reason for Sharing: Third-party advertising helps us generate
revenue to support the development and improvement of our games. By sharing non-personal
data, advertisers can create more relevant ads, which in turn benefits you by showing
you products and services that might genuinely interest you. You have control over this
aspect. You can manage your advertising preferences through your device settings or
opt-out of targeted advertising altogether. For example, on mobile devices, you can
adjust your privacy settings to limit ad tracking, and in our games, there are often
options to manage ad-related preferences.
(III) Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or other business transactions such as a
sale of company assets, your personal data may be transferred as part of the deal.
• What Happens: When such a business transfer occurs, your
personal data will be transferred to the acquiring or successor entity. We are committed
to notifying you of any changes to the privacy policy that may result from the transfer.
The notice will include details about how your data will be handled differently under
the new entity, if at all.
• Reason for Occurrence: This transfer is necessary to ensure
the continuity of services. The new business entity will need access to your data to
continue providing you with the gaming services you are accustomed to. For example, they
will need your game progress data to let you resume playing from where you left off. It
also helps in maintaining the integrity of your account, ensuring that your purchased
content and account settings remain intact.
We are acutely aware of the importance of protecting children's privacy. Our services
are not intended for children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect
personal information from them.
• Protection Measures: We implement several measures to prevent
the collection of children's data. Our registration processes include age-verification
mechanisms, such as asking for date of birth. We also regularly review and update our
data collection practices to ensure compliance with laws related to children's privacy
protection, like the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in relevant
regions. Our privacy-related user interfaces are designed to be clear and easy to
understand for users of all ages, with specific warnings and restrictions for those who
may be underage.
• Importance: Complying with children's privacy laws is not
only a legal obligation but also a moral responsibility. By ensuring that our services
are not accessible to children under 13, we protect their personal information from
potential misuse. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that we have inadvertently
collected data from a child under 13, please contact us immediately. We will take swift
action to delete the data and ensure that such an incident does not recur.

advertising experience more engaging.
• Management Method: You can manage your cookie preferences
through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to control which cookies are

be saved. We respect your choices regarding cookies, and you can change your settings at
any time.
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our business
practices, technological advancements, or legal requirements.
• Notification of Changes: When we update the policy, we will
notify you through in-game notifications, emails, or by posting a notice on our official
website. The updated policy will also be available on our website, and we will clearly
