9. What are tracking technologies

As is true with most websites, we automatically gather certain information and store it for logging purposes.

This information may contain information such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, and non-personal information such as your browser type, operating system, referring/exit pages, operating system, clickstream data, timestamps and/or your Internet Service Provider. This is to improve services we offer you, marketing, analytics and functionality.

CheatCode and its partners (see footnote) may use tracking technologies such as cookies, beacons, tags and scripts. These technologies are used to analyse trends, administer our services, track user movements around our services, and to gather demographic information about our customers. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies.

• DAA Consumer Choices
• NAI Consumer Opt-Out

We always attempt to adhere to the DAA Self-Regulatory Principles for Behavioral Advertising.

10. About Internet Protocol Addresses

An internet protocol ("IP") address is the unique number assigned to your server or Internet Service Provider ("ISP") - the company which provides you internet. We may track these IP addresses for system administration, site tracking, security purposes or to prevent abuse.

11. Information Security at CheatCode

We take an extensive range of security measures to protect your personal information, and keep it confidential (with the exception of non-confidential by nature data such as user-generated content, rankings, forum posts, public profile data etc). We also take steps to ensure personal information is protected from misuse and alteration.

We request our vendors to take appropriate information security measures when processing any CheatCode customer data.

While every attempt is made to protect and secure your data, the Internet cannot be considered secure and the nature and style of security risks and threats constantly changes and evolves - as are the industry standards and steps taken to secure systems. The complete security of any personal information collected or used by us or our vendors therefore cannot be guaranteed.

We encourage you to use a unique password which is changed regularly, and use two-factor authentication on your account.
