Game210 is committed to protecting
your privacy. This policy describes the ways that personally
identifiable and anonymous information about our online
users, event registrants and print subscribers is gathered,
our information sharing practices, and how online users
and print subscribers may request changes to the way this
information is shared.
Personally Identifiable Information
We Collect
We collect personally identifiable information when you
provide it to us, such as when you subscribe to our magazines
(either directly with us or through another company such
as a subscription agency), sign up for email newsletters,
enter a contest, register for site membership, participate
in surveys, or to otherwise communicate with us. Several
of the services that we offer, including but not limited
to file downloads and message boards, require registration
as a condition of use; when you register with one of our
sites you are no longer anonymous. We may also receive
information about you from other sources and add it to
the information you have provided to us.
Information You Volunteer and How it Is Displayed to Others
Online
กค Game210 is not responsible for the information you volunteer
about yourself in the course of discussions in our forums,
chat rooms, or other forms of publicly accessible interaction,
or information that you choose to make public in your
member profile. As a member, you can view, correct or
change your publicly available information at any time
via your member profile page.
Personally identifiable information you provide as a subscriber
to the Microsoft Watch newsletter is not shared with anyone
except on an aggregate, statistical basis, except for
the purposes of fulfillment and email deployment.
Game210 Magazines, Seminars, Events, Sites and Other Publications
and Services
As a Game210 customer you can also expect to receive relevant
email and postal offers for Game210 publications, seminars,
events, web sites and other services. From time to time
we are also able to secure and offer to our customers
specially-negotiated discounts and new products from other
leading companies. If you would prefer not to receive
such mailings in the future, you can change your preference
via the links in the previous section ("Mailing Lists").
Change of Ownership of Game210
Properties
The mailing list(s) associated with Game210 properties may
also be subject to transfer to another company in the
event of a change of ownership. In this event, Game210 or
the new owner of the affected properties will use commercially
reasonable efforts to notify you and provide the opportunity
to remove your name from the associated mailing list(s).
Anonymous Information We
Collect
Cookies
As you probably know, cookies are small pieces of information
that many Web sites store on your computer's hard drive
when you visit them. They don't tell us who you are unless
you've specifically given us personally identifiable information.
Cookies stored on your hard drive by a Game210 site are
not accessible to other sites.
Like many other web sites, Game210 sites use cookies to
improve your experience with our online content. For example,
we may use a cookie to identify members so they don't
have to re-enter a user id and password when they wish
to download a utility or post to a discussion. As another
example, cookies can be used to control the number of
times you see advertisements, like pop-ups. By allowing
us to better understand how users interact with the site
over time, cookies also help us improve your experience
and deliver more relevant content to you. Cookies may
be created directly by our sites for these purposes, or
by third-party companies operating on our behalf. However,
our cookies do not contain any information that is, in
itself, personally identifying. Some of our advertisers
occasionally serve you cookies as well. We do not have
control over cookies placed by advertisers. You need not
have cookies turned on to visit our sites, though cookies
may be required in order for you to participate in certain
areas. If you choose to become a member of a Game210 web
site, you must have cookies enabled to access any member
related pages (i.e. Discussion Boards, Member Profile
pages, Search for a Member).
Most web browsers automatically accept cookies but allow
you to modify security settings so you can approve or
reject cookies on a case-by-case basis.
Pixel
Tags
Like many web sites, Game210 may also use pixel tags, also
known as beacons, spotlight tags or web bugs, to improve
our understanding of site traffic, visitor behavior, and
response to promotional campaigns, as a supplement to
our server logs and other methods of traffic and response
measurement. Pixel tags are sometimes used in conjunction
with small Javascript-based applications, also for the
purpose of traffic measurement. We may also implement
pixel tags provided by other companies, for the same purpose.
You can disable pixel tags by changing your browser settings
to omit images and disable Javascript; or there are commercial
software packages available that can omit pixel tags and
most advertisements.

Please allow 2-4 weeks for changes to take effect.
Security
We use reasonable precautions to keep the personal information
you disclose to our magazines and websites secure and
to only release this information to third parties we believe
share our commitment to privacy. However, we are not responsible
for any breach of security or for the actions of these
parties.
Children
Game210 web sites are not intended for use by children,
especially those under 13. No one under age 13 is allowed
to provide any personal information or use our public
discussion areas, forums, and chats. Minors under the
age of 18 are prohibited from making purchases, including
subscriptions, on our sites.
If your children disclose information about themselves
in our public discussion areas, they may get unsolicited
messages from other parties. Accordingly, you should tell
them not to do so.
Changes
to the Game210 Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be modified from time to time.
Any modifications to our privacy policy will be reflected
first on this page, so check back often. If there is a
significant change, we will indicate on our sites that
our privacy policy has changed and provide a link to the
new policy.
