To protect your Personal Information, Plug In Digital has set up a series of technological and organizational security measures to guarantee the security, integrity and confidentiality of your Personal Information.

The IP address and console ID may be used to identify you with the aim of enforcing Plug In Digital’s Terms of Service.
We may use your date of birth or age to screen access to our forums according to their official age restrictions. Plug In Digital cannot monitor every chat room and therefore makes no such warranty. However, Plug In Digital reserves the right at its sole discretion to delete any content in your posts without prior notice. All such data collected may be used by Plug In Digital to enforce its Terms of Service, uphold the law and protect its rights and those of its subsidiaries and other users, as well as for the security of its employees and users.

Sharing your Personal Information with third-party companies
When navigating on Plug In Digital Websites or using Plug In Digital games, external service providers may collect your Personal Information on behalf of Plug In Digital. These third parties are contracted by Plug In Digital to effectively provide such services as processing credit card payments, delivering products and awarding prizes or free products as part of special offers, and other services provided as part of Plug In Digital’s Services. Except where a third party asks you to accept its own Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, these third parties will only share your Personal Information with Plug In Digital.
Plug In Digital will never share Personal Information with external companies for marketing and/or commercial purposes without having first obtained your authorization or the consent of a parent or guardian in case of users under the age of 13 (thirteen).
Offer walls
Plug In Digital games and their purchase pages feature an “offer wall” hosted by an offer wall provider. The offer wall allows third-party advertisers to give users virtual money in return for interacting with an ad or carry out a marketing campaign that includes opening an account with one of the advertisers. Such offers do not come from Plug In Digital. These offers are presented according to certain technical information, such as the geographic area or anonymous demographic information. If you click on an ad, you will leave the site hosted by Plug In Digital or its partner social networking site. To correctly credit the User Account and avoid any fraud, a unique identifier (sometimes your user name) will be shared with the offer wall provider.
Sharing with authorities
Plug In Digital may need to disclose Personal Information to law enforcement and government officials when required to identify, question and prosecute any individual likely to violate the rights of Plug In Digital, any user or third party. Finally, Plug In Digital may be legally required and forced to disclose Personal Information.
Your information and all the content of your posts (including but not limited to chat, voice calls, IP addresses and your Personal Information) may be viewed and monitored in accordance with the requirements of the Service and may be disclosed:
When we have a good-faith belief that disclosure is required in pursuance of legal process (for example, a court order, search warrant or subpoena). To meet any applicable law or regulation. When we believe that the Service is being use to commit a criminal offence (including the exchange of information with other companies for the purpose of preventing fraud or the risk of insolvency). When we have a good-faith belief that there is an emergency representing a threat to your health and/or safety or to the health and safety of another person or the public in general.

If Plug In Digital’s business activities are transferred, such as through a merger, acquisition by another company or the sale of all or part of its products or assets, your Personal Information could potentially be transferred.

Plug In Digital will keep a record of all transactions on file for the purpose of responding to any subsequent enquiries from Users.
If Users pay with Facebook Credits acquired from Facebook, they must confirm that they have read and accepted Facebook’s User Payments Terms. Plug In Digital is not a party to the transaction between Facebook and the User.
For Virtual Items, the User’s order will constitute an offer to purchase a licence for the Services, which Plug In Digital will accept by making those Virtual Items available to the User according to the terms defined by Plug In Digital.
The Items ordered will be available for use by the User as part of the Services when Plug In Digital accepts the order and/or payment, including payments made with virtual money if applicable.
4.3. Cooling-Off Period
Plug In Digital informs non-professional Users that Section L.121-20 of French consumer law allows Users to withdraw from a purchase within seven (7) calendar days of entering into a distance service contract. However, Plug In Digital informs Users that they lose their right of withdrawal if they order items that are promptly made available to the User upon purchase and used before the end of the cooling-off period.
Users expressly consent to Items being made promptly available upon completion of purchase and therefore waive any right of withdrawal.
6. User Content
6.1. The Services may provide for such functionality as forums, blogs and chat rooms, where Users can publish “User Content” if applicable.
“User Content”, generated by users, refers to all communications, chat messages, images, sounds, material, data and information that Users upload or send via the Services, or which other Users download and/or transmit (“User Content”).
User Content may also include observations and comments made by Users on various topics.
Plug In Digital cannot guarantee that the ideas and information that a User has chosen to share via the Services will not be used by itself or other Users. Therefore, if Users wish to keep information or an idea secret and/or do not wish to see such information or idea used by others, they agree not to upload same via the Services. If Users submit suggestions, proposals, comments or other items (“Submissions”) to Plug In Digital as part of the Services, Plug In Digital will be under no obligation to keep such Submissions confidential and will not be bound to respond to such Submissions in any manner whatsoever, and may use the Submissions for any practical purposes, without any indemnification and notwithstanding the application of any other relevant provisions of these Terms.
6.2. Users warrant that they hold all the rights relating to the User Content published.
By uploading any type of User Content whatsoever (including but not limited to images, videos, submitted ideas, suggestions and posts) to the Site, Users grant (or, if applicable, represent and warrant that the holder has expressly granted them the rights) to Plug In Digital, for the purpose of operating and providing the Service in the interest of the User and others, an irrevocable, worldwide and royalty- free right and licence, for the term of copyright protection stipulated by French intellectual property law, and which will be granted in the future, especially in case of an extension inuring to the benefit of the copyright holders or their heirs, whether by statute or rule of law, custom, court or arbitrary decision, or by international treaties, agreements, decisions, directives, regulations or conventions, to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, exploit, execute, communicate, represent, translate, sub-license, create derivative works and distribute User Content or incorporate User Content in any form, by any medium and using any known or currently unknown technology whatsoever, and Users consequently agree to any use for these purposes. If Plug In Digital wishes to use the User Content for any other purpose, Plug In Digital will obtain prior consent from the User.
Users acknowledge that they have been informed that Plug In Digital or its partners may take technological protection measures to exploit all or part of the User Content. Upon sending written request to Plug In Digital by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested, Users may be given access within a reasonable period of time to the main characteristics of the said technological protection measures that Plug In Digital has actually implemented to exploit the User Content.
Users and Plug In Digital expressly agree that any claims, requests or actions initiated by Users to seek payment of royalties, indemnification or compensation, may not be held as grounds for terminating or invalidating the contract and/or rights and the licence that Plug In Digital has granted to the User in respect of the User Content, but will remain restricted to a dispute concerning the type or amount of royalties, indemnification or compensation sought, where such dispute may only be resolved by the payment or nonpayment of a sum, but where the User does not have the right to dispute or challenge the rights granted to Plug In Digital in respect of the User Content.
To the extent permitted by law, Users hereby acknowledge and accept, and in full consideration of the type of Services hereunder, that they are aware of the risks inherent in distributing User Content and adapting and/or modifying such Content, and Users accept this eventuality. Furthermore and for the same reasons, Users acknowledge that their name and their status as the author may be systematically associated with the User Content, which Users accept.
Such consent is not only granted in respect of the User’s proprietary rights, but also their moral rights. Users acknowledge and accept that their moral rights are likely to be subject to their consent and are neither unlimited, discretionary nor absolute.
6.3. Users are fully and solely liable for the lawfulness and use of the User Content posted and transmitted via the Services and therefore hold Plug In Digital harmless against any third-party claims and/or actions.
In no event will Plug In Digital be liable if User Content is held to be unlawful or used in an unlawful manner.
If Users suspect that another User is making illegal use of the Services, such as by posting unlawful content, they agree to click on the “Report Abuse” link or any similar link and/or contact the Plug In Digital Customer Support Department directly to report such abuse.
Plug In Digital has the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately delete seemingly unlawful Content, especially any User Content that has been subject to a claim and which is likely to violate third-party rights and/or conflict with these Terms. Users expressly accept this right of Plug In Digital and agree to waive any claims against Plug In Digital if User Content is deleted for any reason whatsoever.
Plug In Digital may check and/or record Users’ interactions with the Services or their communications (including but not limited to chat messages and voice communications).
Plug In Digital reserves the right to restrict the storage capacity available to Users for uploading Content.
6.4. Users warrant that any User Content uploaded is:
Accurate and not confidential. Not in violation of any applicable rules of law, contractual terms or any other third-party rights; if applicable, Users must have authorisation from the third parties whose personal information and/or intellectual property is included in the User Content. Free from any viruses, adware, spyware, worms or other malware. In compliance with these Terms and especially the obligations set forth in Section 9.

8. Hypertext Links
The Site may contain hypertext links to third-party content or websites, including other websites operated by Plug In Digital or its partners.
Plug In Digital is not responsible for the quality or accuracy of such content or websites, and a link does not constitute Plug In Digital’s endorsement, publication or authorisation of said websites or content.
Consequently, the operators of said websites are solely responsible for complying with applicable legislation and regulations, especially in respect of the products and services advertised for sale on their website and particularly in terms of consumer protection, distance selling, price regulation, personal data protection and so on.
Plug In Digital disclaims any and all liability for any damage caused by the use of such websites.
9. Intellectual Property
9.1. Users are granted a licence to access and use the Services solely for personal purposes to the extent permitted by the rights under such licence. Users may not use the Services other than in accordance with the rights under the licence granted. In using the Services provided, Users agree to use the said Services as part of a non-exclusive and non-transferable licence.
9.2. Users may under no circumstances consider that they have any title to the digital files of the content for which they have been granted usage rights. Physical control over the files is only granted to allow Users to enjoy the rights granted under the licence, and such files are only incidental to the rights under the licence granted.
The licence may not be transferred, due to the specific commitments binding the User under these Terms.
Any reproduction or representation, whether in full or in part, for purposes other than the User’s personal use on any medium whatsoever is prohibited. Failure to comply with this provision will constitute a breach of these Terms and may incur the infringer’s civil and criminal liability.
9.3. The names, images, logos and any other distinguishing marks on the Site that identify Plug In Digital, its partners or third parties, or their products and services, including the Services offered by Plug In Digital, are content protected by intellectual property rights, trademark rights, design rights, specific database producer rights and/or copyright and neighbouring rights in France and abroad. Any unauthorised reproduction and/or use may constitute a criminal offence or give rise to civil liability.
The Services and their content (including but not limited to games, titles, characters, dialogue, stories, artwork, musical compositions, software, visuals and audiovisual effects), the Site, the general structure of the Site, the editorial content, images, sounds, videos, multimedia, text, photos, drawings, icons, software, databases used and all other content on the Site are protected by copyright, neighbouring rights and/or sui generis database producer rights, as well as applicable international agreements.
Plug In Digital, its partners and third parties alone hold the aforementioned intellectual property rights for all the items on the Site and/or provided by Plug In Digital as part of the Services.
Users agree to abide by these rights.
Subject to civil and/or criminal action and except where consent has been specifically obtained from Plug In Digital, Users agree not to:

Users acknowledge that they have no title to the content available through the Services, including but not limited to the Virtual Items that appear in the Services, irrespective of whether the User has “earned” or purchased such items from Plug In Digital, and no title to any other attributes associated with an Account or stored on the Services.
Plug In Digital prohibits and does not recognise, except where authorisation has expressly been given, purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of its Services, or the purported sale, gift or trade of any items whatsoever appearing in its Services in the “real world”. Accordingly, Users may not trade, sell or attempt to sell Virtual Items for legal currency, or trade Virtual Items for any type of goods whatsoever outside the game, without written consent from Plug In Digital. Such transfers or attempted transfers are prohibited and have no legal value whatsoever. If necessary, Plug In Digital will terminate and close the Account of any Users involved in such activities, without prejudice to any other rights of Plug In Digital in respect of infringement.
9.5. The digital files on the Site may be protected by technological protection measures or digital rights management systems to control the use of such files and prevent them from being copied.

Users shall not take any action aimed at circumventing or infringing the digital content protection systems. Users shall not violate, in any way whatsoever, the reproduction, representation and other rights held by the content’s publishers.
Technological protection measures and digital rights management systems are governed by French intellectual property law. Any attempt to circumvent these measures or systems is subject to the penalties set forth in that law. More generally, any use of the digital files other than in accordance with these Terms may be construed as an act of infringement, which may result in criminal or civil penalties by violating applicable laws and regulations.
In consideration of the legal technological measures and digital rights management systems in pursuance of French intellectual property law, Users may not transfer the licence, content or digital files to a third party.
