Hardcore Bot makes every effort to protect your privacy. Our Privacy Guidelines detail our commitment to protecting your information, how we treat the personal information you provide us, and what choices you have. If you have any questions regarding this policy please contact info@Hardcore Bot.

OUR POLICY

1. Hardcore Bot does not believe or endorse spam or any type of unsolicited email or postal mail. It is our promise to our members that we will never give out any type of member contact information to an outside party unless required to do so by law. This includes name, address, phone and fax number, and email addresses. Our number one goal at Hardcore Bot to keep our members happy, and selling personal information is not a way of doing this. It is our guarantee that all member contact information will be kept 100 percent confidential. We may, however, post the names of contest winners for the specific purpose of prize fulfillment.

2. Advertisers and other partners do not receive any specific personal information. Hardcore Bot only provides our advertisers and other partners with aggregate information (mass information used to show trends and patterns) about the people using our site.

3. Hardcore Bot will divulge your private information if required to do so by law. If served with a subpoena, search warrant, or court order, Hardcore Bot would provide the necessary information.

4. Hardcore Bot does track certain general usage pattern information. Hardcore Bot tracks information including what games people play, how long they have been Hardcore Bot members ("Member") and if they have won. This information is used in aggregate form to improve www.Hardcore Bot.com (the "Hardcore Bot Site") and is provided (also in aggregate form) to advertisers and partners. On the registration page, Hardcore Bot requires members to fill in certain Member information ("Member Information") including month/year of birth, zip code, e-mail address, gender and country. Hardcore Bot also requires the Member to choose a screen name and password. An activated Hardcore Bot member can change or update their information by visiting the Member Services area of our site. With targeted advertising, we deliver advertising messages to the types of audience our advertisers most want to reach. We use the Member Information that our Members provide to assist in the identification of Members who meet these criteria. (For example, females between the ages of 25 and 35 years old). However, our advertisers are not provided with access to Members' personal information.

5. Hardcore Bot does use your registration information to custom tailor information for you. This is done to customize your Hardcore Bot experience and provide you with the most appropriate information. The actual targeting is done via our servers and your information is not seen by the advertiser.

6. Hardcore Bot uses "cookie" technology to better serve our users. Cookies are pieces of information transferred to your hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Cookies are an industry standard and can be found at most major Web sites. Hardcore Bot will never use cookies to retrieve information from your computer that was not originally sent in a cookie. In order to use the Hardcore Bot Site, you must use a browser that accepts cookies.

7. Hardcore Bot has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. The servers for our site are stored in a physically secured and climate controlled facility. Beyond the physical protection of the servers, we protect against data loss by regularly backing up data, performing consistency checks with independently recorded log files to prevent tampering, and restricting access to information on our servers via several user authentication technologies.

While it is a goal of Hardcore Bot to safeguard all Members' personal information, Hardcore Bot cannot ensure or warrant, the security of any information Members transmit to us, and Members submit such information at their own risk and absolve Hardcore Bot of any liability.

Members are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of their usernames, passwords and /or any other account information.

8. You do not have to be sent Hardcore Bot updates and newsletters. You can sign up to receive a weekly Hardcore Bot newsletter during the member activation process. If at any time you wish to discontinue receiving the newsletter, simply click the link at the bottom of the newsletter to unsubscribe. At no time will an Hardcore Bot employee or company representative ask for your password via e-mail. If you ever receive such an inquiry, please notify Hardcore Bot Member services immediately at info@Hardcore Bot.

9. Hardcore Bot logs Members' IP addresses (the group of four numbers separated by periods, such as 123.45.64.89, that identifies a particular host computer) for the purposes of system administration, diagnostic, site tracking and reporting of aggregate usage information to our advertisers as well as tracking acquisition of PrizePoints. Hardcore Bot does not link IP addresses to information identifying Members individually.

10. You do not have to participate in any surveys. From time to time, Hardcore Bot may solicit your opinion to help us determine what you like and don't like. You can choose to not participate in any of these surveys without affecting your status as an Hardcore Bot Member. Should you choose to participate, any information you give us may be used for further marketing purposes. In games developed with a partner, we may share the information with the partner. We will clearly inform you in advance that the information will be shared. All third parties associated with Hardcore Bot (including but not limited to advertisers, sponsors and other Internet sites) with whom we share information have independent privacy and data collection practices. Hardcore Bot has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions.

11. Any personal information voluntarily disclosed by Members and posted on our Web site (i.e. message boards and /or chat areas) can be viewed and used by others. If Members post personal information that is accessible to the public online, they may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.

12. You can unregister from Hardcore Bot at any time. If for some reason you no longer want to be a registered Hardcore Bot member, please use our Close My Account form, or send an email to info@Hardcore Bot.

13. While Hardcore Bot is careful in choosing its partners and advertisers, the company is only responsible for content on Hardcore Bot.com and any affiliate sites owned or managed by Hardcore Bot.

14. We will keep you informed about changes in our privacy policy. Please check this space regularly for any changes.
