Use of Information

What Information Is Collected?

Personally Identifiable Information
You may use this site without registering. You may also register and voluntarily provide personally identifiable information (PII) such as your first name, initial, city, age and email address.  We collect the above information directly as we only receive information that has been actively entered when prompted.  In order to participate in contests, challenges or build levels, we require the visitors to activate an account which requires a minimum collection of information.  We only ask for email addresses of users that wish to participate in contests, emails and/or e-newsletter receipts. When activating an account, we ask you to create a username and password.  Passwords for usernames are for the creation and management of their characters and recording and tracking their activities.  You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and your account information. 
When a user is asked to become a member, receive our emails and/or web site update information, the user is asked to provide his or her date of birth (to confirm age eligibility of over 12 to receive messages), their email address or the email address of his or her parent or legal guardian (if 12 or under).    If 12 or under, we will send a separate notification email to the parent/guardian to confirm their consent as to the child’s participation as a member, in contests, and for e-newsletters.  We will notify the parent or guardian of the 12 and under child’s user name and password to enable them to update the child’s profile information or delete the account, whenever desired. Children are not required to join, participate in polls, surveys or contests in order to use this site.
