1. What information do we collect and why?

1.1 Registration information

When you first use BattleMail dependent upon which game you have chosen we ask you to provide us with your age (within certain bounds), your sex ,your location, the football team you support , your job description and your region within the UK. We collect this information as we believe that BattleMail Games should be free to our Players and so to fund this, we sell advertising space within the games. In order to sell this space, we provide generic information about our Players to advertisers. For example an advertiser may purchase advertising space on the consoles of male users between 20 - 30 years old in the US for a particular time. That advertiser will never know the e-mail address of the Players who saw their advert. 

1.2 Your e-mail address

We also collect your e-mail address to identify you in order that we can provide the services accessible via our web site such as league tables etc and in order that we can allow you to progress through the various levels of the BattleMail Games. This identification does allow us to track your use of the BattleMail Games but this information is only ever made available in a generic form as detailed below. 

1.3 Your Domain

From Your e-mail address we can identify what domain youare using i.e. joebloggs@virgin.net, virgin being Your domain. We will use domains as a category for profiling users allowing advertisers to focus on particular domains. 

1.4  E-Commerce

If you purchase an item from our e commerce store you will be asked for further information. The type of information we will collect about you includes: 

                                               your name 
                                               address 
                                               phone number 
                                               email address 
                                               credit/debit card details 

We will never collect sensitive information about you without your explicit consent. 

1.5 Children

Battlemail recommends that if you are a child that you have the permission of your parent or guardian to register with us.
 

2. What do we do with the information and who do we provide it to?

As we have pointed out, we do make information available to advertisers. The information provided to advertisers never relates to particular individuals and BattleMail will never distribute Players' e-mail addresses to third parties. Advertisers will thus never know the unique identities of BattleMail Players. 
BattleMail will make use of your e-mail address to notify you of new BattleMail games and developments on the BattleMail site. 
 

3. How do we keep the information secure?

We store all information on our own servers which are hosted in a secure environment protected by a fire wall.
 

4. How can you remove information we hold about you?

If you wish to remove your information and unsubscribe from BattleMail please send a blank e-mail to unsubscribe@battlemail.com from the e-mail address you used originally to register with BattleMail. This will remove you completely from the system and you will not be able to play Battlemail. 
 

5. What happens if we change our policy ?

Battlemail may amend this policy to reflect changes in statute and other matters of good practice from time to time. If we make substantial changes in the way we use your personal information we will notify you. If you wish to see the current policy please go to http://www.battlemail.com.
