Promotion Software GmbH Privacy Policy

Promotion Software GmbH is serious about protecting users personal data and is obliged to adhere
to all valid, related laws, including Directive 94/46/EG of the European Parliament and Council
from October 25, 1995 for the protection of individuals when processing personal data and to the
free flow of data as well as other appropriate, applicable laws and legal regulations in your country
of residence.
We have employed technical and organizational measures which, in our opinion, ensure that data
protection laws are observed by us as well as by external service providers working for us.

Personal data
Personal data are individual details about personal or business relationships of a specific or
ascertainable person. The data includes information which is related or applicable to an individual
person or creates a connection to that person. This includes information such as name, address,
mailing address, and phone number. Information that cannot be associated with an actual identity
(e.g., favourite websites or number of site users) is not protected.
In principle, you are entitled to use portions of our online services (website) without disclosing your
identity. If, however, you would like to participate in games and the portal, we request the following
personal data:
E-mail address
The following data is requested for competitions and other events:
- Name
- Mailing address
- Possibly phone number
Additional data such as age and hobbies may be requested, within the framework of other actions
(e.g., "Player of the Month"), and , published, with your permission, on the Web or in printed
media.
Promotion Software GmbH employees are not authorized to request additional user data, such as
credit card information, banking information, passwords, or phone numbers. Divulging personal
information in online chat is the sole responsibility of users.

Storage of security of personal data

Data collected by us during player account registration is stored on the operators server database
(e-mail address). [Address: Promotion Software GmbH, Karlstrasse 3, 72072 Tuebingen, Germany]
Persons who require access because of technical, business, or editorial maintenance of the server
and portal are legally bound by an agreement of confidentiality and non-disclosure.
A copy of the data is made available to us via FTP and stored on a local PC.
Your e-mail/mailing addresses may be requested via e-mail by support and stored with us.
We are committed to data security within the framework of applicable data protection laws. Please
note however that no electronic communications are totally secure. We remind you that, despite our
high standards, information that you voluntarily provide on the Web are never guaranteed to be
100% secure. There is always the potential danger that third persons may obtain unauthorized

access. Promotion Software GmbH is not responsible or liable for the disclosure of information due
to data transmission errors and/or unauthorized access by third parties.

Data processing
Once you have completed a declaration of consent, we collect, store, and process personal
information for the purpose of individual information and management (e.g., newsletters).
We use e-mail addresses for administrative purposes such as account activation information,
welcome e-mails, and newsletter distribution. Users may opt out of newsletters at any time.
If a user modifies account information (password, account name) or is temporarily or permanently
blocked from the service ("kick, ban"), the system automatically sends an e-mail to the previously
provided address. We do not control the distribution of such e-mails. This can only be achieved by
deleting all account-related data.
For security purposes, data that could be used for identification (e.g., IP address, date, and time) is
stored on our servers when you are granted access. Personal data is not used for any other purposes,
apart from legal or official requirements. We reserve the right to conduct statistical analysis of
anonymous data sets.

Sharing of personal information with third

parties
Your personal data will not be shared with third parties without your express consent. If data is
shared with service providers as part of contractual data processing, they are required to conform to
the BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act) and other legal requirements as well as to Promotion
Software GmbH Privacy Policy. We must provide data to authorized authorities in accordance with
legal or judicial decrees.
Storing, modifying, or using data for other purposes is permitted only when necessary to protect
against serious disadvantages for the common welfare, danger to public security, or protecting the
interests of the common welfare or when required for the prosecution of criminal or regulatory
violations, the enforcement or execution of penalties or sanctions in accordance with 11 Paragraph
1 No. 8 of the criminal code, correctional actions in accordance with juvenile law, or enforcement
of civil penalties.
Promotion Software GmbH employs appropriate measures to prevent the sharing of user personal
data, including user account data, with third parties, except under the following conditions:
(1) To recoup costs associated with use of service.
(2) To generate statistics for academic or marketing research on an anonymous basis
(3) For the enforcement of certain guidelines of applicable laws and regulations, which expressly
authorize such sharing, or to comply with judicial decrees that mandate such sharing.
(4) Upon catastrophic events, emergencies, or other acts of nature that are beyond the control of
Promotion Software GmbH.
Anyone may access (view) contributions placed in the discussion forum. You should ensure, before
publishing, that your contributions do not contain information that is not appropriate for public
viewing. You should be aware that your contributions may be accessed by search engines and
accessible worldwide without specifically targeting our portal. Deleting or correcting such entries is
frequently not possible with foreign operators.

Non-liability for online partner services

We remind you that in various technical areas we work with external partners who also offer
Internet sites and services accessible from our sites. These partners generally have their own data
protection guidelines. We assume no responsibility or liability for such declarations or activities that
take place at other sites.

Right of withdrawal
You may delete data that you have entrusted with us at any time. Please send an e-mail requesting
deletion of your account data to support@promotion-software.de. We remind you that the
remonstrance of certain data for certain periods of time is stipulated by commercial and taxation
laws. These data may only be deleted following legally stipulated time periods.
