Throwback's Online Privacy Policy
Throwback Entertainment ("Throwback") respects the privacy rights of our online visitors and is committed to protecting the personal information collected about you. To further this commitment, we have adopted this Online Privacy Policy ("Privacy Policy") to guide how we collect, store, and use the information you provide us online.
What does this Privacy Policy apply to?
The website you are currently visiting is operated by Throwback Entertainment, Inc.. This Privacy Policy currently applies to the following website(s) operated by Throwback (collectively referred to as "Throwback Websites" or "our Websites"):
www.throwbackentertainment.com
In the future, if we wish to include additional websites under this Privacy Policy, we will take reasonable steps to list them above and ensure that they provide a link to this Privacy Policy.
Please note that this Privacy Policy applies only to information submitted and collected online through the Throwback Websites (as listed above), and does not apply to information that may be collected by Throwback offline. In addition, this Privacy Policy does not extend to websites maintained by other companies or organizations to which we link. Because we cannot guarantee that the privacy policies of such sites meet our high standards we encourage you to read the privacy policy of the website to which you link before you submit any personal information to that site.
Please note that by using our Websites, you signify your assent to Throwback's Online Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not use our Websites. We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy. Please check back from time to time to ensure that you are aware of these changes. If we make a material change to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by posting the change on our Websites. Your continued use of our Websites will signify your acceptance of these changes.
What types of information does Throwback collect?
In order to give you the best experience on our Websites, Throwback may collect information about you, but only if you voluntarily provide it to us. Typically, we may ask you to submit personal and/or demographic information in connection with any one of the following features or services on our Websites.
Website or game-specific registration
Newsletter subscription
Contests, sweepstakes, or other promotions
Technical or product support
Product and warranty registration
Online store
Polls, surveys, or questionnaires
The types and amount of personal information collected for each activity will vary depending on the activity. The requested personal information may include: your name, home address, telephone number, e-mail address and (for those purchasing products online) credit card information including billing and shipping addresses. For some activities, we may ask you to create a username and password and to provide other non-personal information such as your age or date of birth, gender, marital status, household income, game and platform preferences (including information about the games and hardware you own), and hobbies and interests (also known as "demographic information"). If demographic information is collected for an activity that also requires personal information, we may combine the demographic information with your personal information. Combining data allows us to customize the notices we send you and the content we provide you according to your interests and preferences. For more on how we use your information, please read the section on use below.
No matter what method we use to collect information and no matter how we use that information, we will only collect the information deemed reasonably necessary to fulfill your online requests and our legitimate business objectives.
How does Throwback use the information it collects?
Generally, information that we collect for a particular purpose is used for that purpose only. For example, if you sign up for our newsletter, the email address that you provide will be used to send you notices about special promotions, new products, or other events of interest and to otherwise keep you updated about our company. If (upon signing up for a newsletter) you are told that your name will also be entered into a random monthly drawing, then you can expect your information to be used for newsletter delivery, giveaway participation, and (if you win) prize fulfillment. Information collected from those who register on our Websites is used to provide registrants the benefits associated with such registration (e.g., subscription to newsletter, free trailer downloads, or access to the latest game news and exclusive store promotions). And, of course, any credit card information is solely used to fulfill and process purchase orders.
We may use your email address to send you service-related announcements that tell you about updates to our Privacy Policy, new areas or features on our Websites, changes to our online service or technical support policies, and other related changes.
We may also use your personal and demographic information for our internal marketing and demographic studies, so we can constantly improve the online products and services we provide you and to better meet your needs.
Please be advised that in some areas of our Websites, you may be able to submit information about yourself in a business capacity. Although we can assure you that any personal information gathered in this context will be used solely for its intended purpose, such information is not subject to this Privacy Policy. These areas typically include an employment section where you can submit your resume online or an investor relations section where you can fill out an online form to request financial information about our company.
What happens if I refuse to provide my personal information to Throwback?
If you choose not to submit personal information when requested, you may not be able to participate in certain activities on our Websites and may limit the services we can provide you. For example, if you refuse to share your email address, you will not be able to receive our newsletter or otherwise register on our Websites. To simply browse our Websites, however, you do not need to give us any personal information.
Does Throwback use cookies, track IP addresses, or use other passive means to collect information?
Cookies
We may use cookies to improve the use and functionality of our Websites. A "cookie" is a small file or record-keeping device that websites often store on a user's computer. Storage of cookies on your system provides an easy and convenient method for us to personalize your experience on our Websites. For example, cookies will remember your username and password, tell us that you have visited one of our Websites before, and may contain other information that will make your next visit to our Websites more enjoyable. We do not use cookies to collect personal information such as your name or to link your browsing habits to personal information already collected about you. You can always disable cookies or set your browser to alert you when cookies are being sent to your computer.
IP Addresses
Throwback may also keep track of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to troubleshoot technical concerns and to maintain website safety and security. An IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer every time you log on to the Internet.
Log Files
Throwback may collect information in the form of logs - files that record website activity and gather statistics about web users' browsing habits. These entries are generated anonymously, and help Throwback determine (among other things) how many and how often users have visited our Websites, which pages they've visited, and other similar data. We also use the log file entries for our internal marketing and demographic studies, so we can constantly improve the online services we provide you. Log files are used internally only, and are not associated with any particular user, computer, or browser.
Who is collecting my personal information and is it shared with anyone?
The information that you disclose on the Throwback Websites is collected by Throwback or by a vendor on Throwback's behalf; and, is used in accordance with the practices set forth above. Vendors (or agents) are entities that provide support for the internal operations of our Websites and who only use the information we share with them (or that they collect on our behalf) for purposes of internal fulfillment (e.g., online product fulfillment). Vendors are required to handle such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
From time to time, we may run contests, promotions, or other events or activities ("events") on our Websites. Information collected for these events may include personal information such as your email address and may be collected by or shared with a third party sponsor, co-sponsor, or other reputable third party (e.g., promotional partner, software licensee, or game developer). While we have no control over the third party's use of such information, we will attempt to ensure that they agree to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of any personal information we share with them (or that they collect through our Websites). If you do not want your information to be collected by or shared with a third party, you can choose not to participate in these events at the time the information is collected.
We may disclose personal information in the good faith belief that we are required to do so by law, including but not limited to disclosure to law enforcement or other government officials in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose you or us to legal liability. In addition, in the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or other similar event, Throwback's customer information may be transferred to our successor or assign.
Can I choose how my personal information is used?
If you do not want to receive our newsletter, service related announcements, or any other communications and/or services from Throwback, please opt-out from these communications or services at the time of registration or information collection. If you have opted-in and, at a later time, wish to opt-out, please visit the appropriate "Unsubscribe" section on our Websites or contact us using the information provided below.
In addition, along with every communication sent to you, Throwback provides you the opportunity to discontinue receiving future communications (i.e., unsubscribe).
How can I access my personal information?
If you wish to review, update, or delete any personal information that we may have collected about you, please contact us using the information provided below.
What is Throwback's policy regarding children under 13?
We do not knowingly collect personal information such as name and email address from children under 13 years old on our Websites. We take steps to ensure that those who wish to register or submit personal information on our Websites meet certain age requirements before they can do so. We recognize the importance of safeguarding the privacy of children and encourage parents to check and monitor their children's use of online activities regularly.
From time to time, certain portions of the Throwback Websites may allow children under 13 to disclose a limited amount of personal information without first telling us their age or getting their parent's permission. Such portions of our Websites operate activities or provide services in a way that does not require prior parental consent.
What safeguards does Throwback use to protect my personal information?
Throwback maintains reasonable procedures to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of the personal information collected from our website visitors. Personal information collected by Throwback is stored in secure operating environments that are not available to the public and that are only accessible to authorized employees. In addition, our online store uses industry-standard encryption to prevent unauthorized electronic access to sensitive financial information such as your credit card number. We also have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control.
Although we cannot guarantee that third parties to whom we transfer personal data (for such purposes as co-sponsored promotions or events) will adhere to the security standards set forth above, we will take reasonable measures to assure that they provide sufficient protection over such data.
How do I ask a question or file a complaint? (Contact Information)
If you have any questions, complaints, or comments regarding this Privacy Policy or our information collection practices, please contact our Privacy Policy Administrator at:
