INTRODUCTION

GameKapital ("we" or "us") is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Statement sets out our privacy policy and explains what we do with the personal information that we collect from you. Please read the following to understand our practices regarding personal information and how they affect you as you use our features and services. This statement discloses our current privacy practices; if we make material changes to these practices, we will post them.

If you choose to provide registration information, you are giving GameKapital the permission to use and store it consistent with this policy. Therefore, please understand when you sign in with GameKapital, you are not anonymous to us.

INFORMATION COLLECTED BY US

We collect user submitted account information such as name and email address to identify you and send you notifications related to the use of the service. We maintain information you submit in your profile on the site, and we also collect user submitted content about companies and investing and other information. Some information collected is not explicitly submitted by the user. Examples of such information include (but are not limited to): browser-type related information, IP address, requested URL, referring URL, and timestamp.

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

Information such as your full name, profile photo and any personally identifiable information you have included in your profile may be shown to users, primarily in conjunction with articles you have contributed to. Your full name and email address may also be used when you send an email notification to another user on our site. We may also use your email address to send you communications from us or messages that we send you on behalf of other users, but you may opt out of receiving emails by changing your email preferences in your account settings.

Browser-type related information, IP address, requested URL, referring URL, timestamp data, and other information help us diagnose problems with our server, administer GameKapital, and otherwise provide the highest possible level of service to you.

In addition, we use this information to perform statistical analyses of user behavior and characteristics in order to measure interest in and use of the various areas of the site. In addition, GameKapital may combine information about you that we collect with information we obtain from business partners or other companies.

USE OF COOKIES AND IP ADDRESSES

Like most websites, GameKapital requires cookies to function properly. Cookies are small text files that reside on a user's computer and identify you as a unique user. We use cookies to refine our site and simplify the user experience. For example, the use of cookies allows registered users to enter our site without explicitly typing in their email address and password every time, and it allows us to personalize your experience on the site by suggesting articles you may be interested in. If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to deny or accept the cookie feature; however, you should note that cookies may be necessary to provide you certain features.

Third party advertisements displayed in connection with the GameKapital Services may also contain cookies set by internet advertisers. We do not control these cookies and users of the GameKapital Services should check the privacy policy of the advertiser to understand whether and how it uses cookies.

TRANSFER/DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

Most of the information you provide on our site is publicly exposed. However, except as set forth in this Privacy Policy, we do not sell, rent, share, trade or give away any of your personal information without your consent. We will disclose information about individual users to governmental or judicial authorities or law enforcement agencies, or to other individuals or entities in response to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal processes. Further, we may share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities or suspected fraud, or to enforce or apply the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

We reserve the right to transfer your personal information in the event of a transfer of ownership of GameKapital, such as an acquisition by or merger with another company. In such an event, we will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy. We will notify you when information about you may be provided to third parties in ways other than explained above, and you will have the option to prevent such information sharing.

We may use anonymous data, information that is used in aggregate form, for purposes of research or analysis. We may conduct research on our customer demographics, internet usage, and interests and behavior based on personal data we gather. Although anonymous data may be based in part on personal data, it does not identify you personally. GameKapital may share this type of anonymous data with a variety of third parties, including its affiliates, advertisers and other current and prospective business partners. But because it is anonymous, these third parties will not be able to contact you based on this data.

GameKapital may display targeted advertisements based on personal information. GameKapital does not provide any personal information to the advertiser when you interact with or view a targeted ad, although advertisers (including ad serving companies) may assume that people who interact with, view, or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria.

We may use anonymous data collected for website administration, advertising and promotional purposes, and we may share such information with various affiliated and unaffiliated entities for such purposes. For example, IP addresses are used for the purposes of system administration and to provide anonymous aggregated data to advertisers about the volume of use on the GameKapital Services. We may also enter into agreements with outside companies that possess the technology that allows us to customize the advertising and marketing messages you receive while using the GameKapital Services. Your non-personally identifiable information and click stream data about your activities may be shared with these companies so this customization can be accomplished. Our agreement with these companies restricts them from sharing your information with third parties or using it for any other purpose. Anonymous click stream and demographic information may also be shared with our advertisers and business partners.

SECURITY

Your GameKapital account is password-protected. We try very hard to protect our users' information. If you have any questions about the security at our website, please contact us. Although we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorized disclosures of information, we cannot assure you that personally identifiable information that we collect will never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy.
You hereby acknowledge that we are not responsible for any intercepted information sent via the Internet, and you hereby release us from any and all claims arising out of or related to the use of intercepted information in any unauthorized manner.

EMAIL/DIRECT MAIL AND OPT-OUT

Registered members can opt-out of personal messages initiated by users and/or opt-out of receiving notifications initiated by us. Unregistered users that do not wish to receive emails may opt-out of receiving any communications by following the instructions contained in all emails. However, at this time it is not possible for users to opt-out of receiving articles sent to them by other users through using any sort of sharing features of our website.
Whether you opt in or opt out of receiving communications from GameKapital, we reserve the right to send you administrative messages, service announcements, and other similar communications without offering you the opportunity to opt out of receiving them. This is important in case we need to communicate with you about items such as your account, website maintenance, and other non-promotional matters. From time to time, you may be given an opportunity to indicate your preferences regarding various account settings, communication preferences or other information related to your account.

CONTROLLING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You should be aware that when you voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information (e.g., user name, e-mail address) via reviews, messages, forums, postings, or in other areas of the GameKapital site, that information, along with any substantive information disclosed in your communication, can be collected and correlated and used by third parties and may result in unsolicited messages from other posters or third parties. Such activities are beyond the control of GameKapital. Please do not post any personal information on the GameKapital site or in other areas that you expect to keep private.

As a registered GameKapital user, you can modify your personal information at any time by accessing your profile by clicking on your username in the account section of the shelf.
