HATTORIBROWN PRIVACY POLICY
Last updated on December 11th, 2021
The HattoriBrown Privacy Policy is designed to help you better understand the information we may
collect and the different ways we may use or share it.
This policy applies to your use of the HattoriBrown services. By “HattoriBrown services,” we mean
any of our websites, games, applications, or other products or services that link to this policy. The
terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions, which
may also apply to your relationship with HattoriBrown, depending on how you choose to interact
with us. Please read this entire policy to make sure you fully understand it. You should also be sure
to carefully review other terms potentially applicable to your visit and your use of specific
HattoriBrown services (such as the use of your HattoriBrown Player Account (hereinfater BPA) in
case you choose to have one), and confirm that you understand and agree to them, before using
the HattoriBrown services.
Please see “How to Contact Us” below to learn more about sending us any privacy-related
questions or concerns you may have.
Information We May Collect
As a starting point we aim not to collect information, at least not too much information, user
identifiable and particularly not personal information, unless the latter would be unavoidable and
we would anyhow get your consent.
The way modern internet servers operate is that they monitor and register all the traffic, so that
part is unavoidable, yet it does not include personal information. When you play our games those
are either standalone and not interacting with HattoriBrown or they do interact following your
consent.
When we do collect information, we generally may collect information in three ways: (1) you
voluntarily provide information to us, such as by creating an account or signing up for email alerts,
(2) we collect information automatically from your use of the HattoriBrown services, such as
through cookies or our games and other software, and (3) other parties, such as game console
platforms may provide information to us.
Cookies
The use of cookies on our websites is limited to registered users.
There are no 3rd party cookies.
Cookies are files with a small amount of data that are commonly used as anonymous unique
identifiers and often helping carry user preferences for interaction with the website, like the
language selection or similar. These are sent to your browser from the websites that you visit and
are stored on your device's internal memory.
How We Use and Share Information
As a general matter, we may use information, if a must, but do not share information, unless it
would be unavoidable and necessary in order to comply with legal obligations.
We may collect (either individually or in combination with other information collected as described
in this policy) to help us provide, improve, customise, analyse, and market the HattoriBrown
services where we have an appropriate basis to do so.
(1) Use We may use the information:
To communicate with you, respond to your requests, or provide you with updates and information;
To personalise your experience, save your preferences, authenticate you as our user, and provide
similar user-experience features;
To develop, deliver, and improve our products, services, and other offerings;
For security purposes;
For internal purposes such as auditing and data analysis;
To provide services that are subject to terms you have accepted, such as enforcing our agreements,
and terms of service, which may include reasonable monitoring to detect and prevent misuse or
fraud, keep our games fair for all users, and otherwise protect and defend the HattoriBrown
services;
When you give consent, which you can withdraw at any time;
To comply with legal obligations.
We store information for as long as we reasonably need it to fulfil the purposes for which it was
collected. For example, if you create a BPA, we will store the information associated with your BPA
for as long as needed to maintain your account, provide the HattoriBrown services you requested,
enforce any applicable terms that govern your use of the HattoriBrown services, and maintain
appropriate records to reflect our delivery of the HattoriBrown services to you. We periodically
review the information we retain to determine whether continued storage is proper.
(2) Sharing
No sharing, unless legally required.
Your Choices and Controls
We look to provide you with meaningful choices throughout your interaction with HattoriBrown
and we aim to require only the information that is necessary. You are free to choose how you
interact with HattoriBrown and you can always decide not to interact. The latter may however
result in unavailability of certain services and/or features or they may not work as intended. You
would also be able to change your mind with the effects from that point onwards. In case you are
using a BPA, that can be deleted from the interface once you are logged in.
How We Protect Information
We aim to maintain appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the
information from accidental, unlawful, or unauthorised destruction, loss, alteration, access,
disclosure, or use and other unlawful forms of processing. In some cases, your information is
accessible when you log into a feature we offer, and in those cases you need to keep your user
credentials and password confidential and secure so that your information is protected.
Children’s Privacy
HattoriBrown services are intended to be appropriate for general audience and are not directed
specifically towards children (usually considered to be under 13, depending on where you reside).
HattoriBrown does not collect personal information from children.
Updates to Our Privacy Policy
This policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in our personal information practices or
relevant laws. We will indicate at the top of this policy when this policy was last updated. Please
review this policy every time you access or use HattoriBrown services to make sure that you have
reviewed the most recent version.
