Privacy Policy

Quick Summary

Playyoo takes your privacy and privacy of others very seriously. We have a formal Privacy Policy below, which you should read. You probably won't though, so we just want to give you the edited highlights here:

We do require that you provide us with some personal data, including your name, email address and mobile phone number. We will NEVER share this required information with outsiders (unless legally necessary). We need your mobile phone number to help you to access games, we need your email address to send you operational information, and we need your name in case we need to give you a prize.

The only information you provide which everybody can see by default is your nickname.

We do use cookies both on the web and on mobile phones. This helps us provide a smoother experience. There is no specific personal data stored in these cookies.

We do ask that you agree to provide some other personal data. This data will primarily be used to help us avoid sending you inappropriate advertising. The individual data you voluntarily supply will NEVER be shared with anybody else, including advertisers. We will, however, use this information to customize the advertisements and promotions that you receive.

If Playyoo or Playyoo's assets are acquired by another company at some point in the future, all personal information we hold will be passed on to that company. However, the same protections will continue to be applied.

Lastly, Playyoo does not accept or collect personal information from children under 13 years of age. Playyoo has put into place certain safeguards to support this policy. Please see Playyoo's Terms of Use for additional information.

That's about it, really. The widescreen Director's cut version can be found below. We still recommend you read it.

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers downloaded onto your computer or mobile phone so that it can be recognized at a later time. Cookies are commonly used on the Internet and do not harm your system.

When you enter www.playyoo.com, your computer or phone will automatically be issued with a cookie. Most websites do this to allow the website owners to carry out useful activities such as finding out whether a particular computer has visited the site before.

Playyoo gathers non-personal data regarding visitors to the Playyoo Website through the use of cookies. The cookies provide non-personal statistical information about visits to pages on the site, the duration of individual page view, paths taken by visitors through the site and other general information. This information is used only for the administration of the Website, in the compilation of statistics to assess the use of the Website and to help us improve our services to our users.

Users have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie was issued, or not to receive cookies at any time.

• We use standard and reasonable technological and procedural measures to protect the information you provide. We urge you to protect your password by not sharing it with anyone else, and to take measures to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure. For example, select number and letter combinations that would be difficult for a third party (or hacking program) to determine, and do not write down your password next to your computer.

Playyoo Premium Program

The Playyoo Premium Program (“PPP”) is an initiative launched by Playyoo SA in order to earn revenue and to reward game developers who have created excellent Flash Lite games.

The objectives of the PPP

• To stimulate the contribution of quality games to Playyoo
• To help Flash Lite developers to profit from their work
• To have fun!

What does it cost to join the Playyoo Premium Program? Nothing.

Definitions

Game: In the context of this agreement, a “game” is an SWF file targeting Adobe Flash Lite Player version 1.1 or 2.x, which conforms to the requirements for compatibility with the Playyoo platform and the Playyoo Flash Extension/API.

Source Code: The source code for a game consists of the associated FLA file and any AS files referenced by the FLA file.

General Terms and Conditions

The terms and conditions of Playyoo are applicable to the PPP. In addition:

• PPP members recognise that through their membership they may have access to confidential information. They undertake not to reveal any such information to third parties, through any channel.
• Playyoo retains the right to deny individuals access to the PPP upon violation of any part of the applicable terms and conditions.
• Playyoo retains the right to terminate the PPP at any time, without notice.
• Playyoo reserves the right to remove a game from the PPP at any time.
• These terms and conditions may be updated or altered from time to time.

General Terms and Conditions applicable to submitted games and game proposals

• The first rule is to comply with Playyoo's terms and conditions, which you accept by registering at www.playyoo.com. The most important principle is "upload only your own content - don't steal or violate copyright".
• Uploaded games must be built on top of the Playyoo Flash Extension/API.
• The games should conform to the general ideas of casual gaming.
• All games will be produced for the 3 standard Playyoo dimensions (ratios 0.75, 0.8, 0.85).
• Games containing prohibited content or otherwise deemed by Playyoo, in its sole discretion, to be inappropriate will be rejected.
• Playyoo retains the right to reject a premium game on any grounds.
• Entrants agree that all taxes are their own responsibility and to waive, release and hold harmless Playyoo and its contractors from any damages of whatever nature resulting from participating in the PPP.
• The game developer will support quality assurance and testing of the games prior to release to the PPP. Playyoo will provide the game developer with technical support on platform issues and game testing feedback wherever required.

Licensing

The licensing section (Section 7 -Your User Submissions and Conduct) of the general terms and conditions is applicable to the PPP.

Payment

All developers will receive $X every Y premium downloads, according to the following table:

After the total revenue from all of the developers games combined reaches $Z, Playyoo pays the developer through PayPal. Payments are made once a month. If a monthly pay period ends and the account has less than $Z, the balance will roll over to the next month. This rollover process will continue until the account reaches $Z.
