or services available on other websites or other third party sources
(collectively, the "Service"). Personal information may include, for

This Policy applies only to information collected
or received by Firefly through your use of the Service. Any link to the

services of any third party, the content of any third party site, or the use or

your Internet Protocol ("IP") address), the version
of your operating system ("OS"), your game platform ID ("GPF

(Android) with personal information or with other persistent device identifiers
(for example, IDFA, Advertiser ID, SSAID, MAC address, or IMEI) at any time.
We use this information to assist with
understanding trends in usage and for help with tracking and correcting errors.
We also use (and may provide to third party analytics providers as described
below) country-level geographic location information to enforce our Terms of
Service, customize the user experience and make recommendations to you.
We may also give you the opportunity to opt-in to
location-based services, which utilize a device's GPS coordinates. You may

Android Market. These marketplaces may collect information about you or receive
information from us in the course of providing or analyzing their services. Firefly is not responsible for
these marketplaces, and is not affiliated with or responsible for the actions
of these third parties. You should review these third parties' terms of service
and privacy policies, which are separate from FireflyÕs.

A "cookie" is a data file that is
transferred to a user's computer and is intended to identify that computer.
Cookies also are used to maintain information about a user's visit to a site or
game, such as user names, passwords and individual preferences. The Service
sends cookies to your computer when you access a Firefly game or view content of a
game. Information contained in a cookie may be linked to your personal

more specific to you.
Firefly may also collect

electronic images that may be used on the Site or in email to deliver cookies,
count visits and to tell if an email has been opened and actioned.

services that may be of interest to you.

information, including personal information, to a country and jurisdiction that
does not have the same data protection laws as your jurisdiction, and you

Security
Firefly implements reasonable
security measures to protect the security of your information and is committed
to protect customer information.
It is important that you protect and maintain the
security of your account and that you immediately notify us of any unauthorized
use of your account. If you forget the password to your account, the Site
allows you to ask for instructions on how to reset your password. When you sign
into your account or enter payment information (such as a credit card number
when purchasing virtual currency), the transmission of that information is
encrypted using secure socket layer technology ("SSL").
Although Firefly takes reasonable
precautions against possible security breaches of our websites and records, no
Internet transmission is completely secure. Accordingly, Firefly cannot guarantee that
unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. We
strongly recommend that you take steps to keep your personal information secure
(including your account password), and to log out of your account after use. If
you have questions about security, please visit our support page located at http://www.fireflygames.com/support.html.

Firefly may modify this Policy
from time to time. We will post all changes to this Policy on this page or
