The types of tracking technologies we use to automatically collect information include:
- Log Files, which are files that record events that occur in connection with your use of the Service.
- Cookies, which are small data files stored on your device that act as a unique tag to identify your browser. We use two types of cookies: session cookies and persistent cookies.

We use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to help us understand how users access and use the Sites. In addition, we work with agencies, advertisers, ad networks, and other ad partners to place ads on our Sites and on other websites and services. As part of this process, we may incorporate tracking technologies into our own Sites (including emails and ads) as well as into our ads displayed on other websites and services. Some of these tracking technologies may track your activities across time and services for purposes of associating the different devices you use, and delivering relevant ads and/or other content to you (“Interest-based Advertising”).
As indicated above, vendors and ad partners may act as our service providers, or in certain contexts, independently decide how to process your information. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with and consult their privacy policies and terms of use.
For further information on the types of tracking technologies we use on the Service and your rights and choices regarding analytics and Interest-based Advertising please see the “Do We Use Cookies And Other Tracking Technologies?” and “What Are Your Privacy Rights?” sections.

8. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
In Short: We aim to protect your information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of information about you that we process.

9. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM CHILDREN?
In Short: We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13 years of age.
The Sites are intended for general audiences. We do not knowingly collect personal information (as defined by the U.S. Children’s Privacy Protection Act, or “COPPA”) from children under 13 years of age. If you are a parent or guardian and believe we have collected personal information in violation of COPPA, contact us at privacy@raider.io. We will remove the personal information in accordance with COPPA. We do not knowingly “sell,” as that term is defined under the CCPA, the personal information of minors under 16 years old who are California residents.
By using the Sites, you represent that you are at least 18. If we learn that information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records.

Data Received from Blizzard
We develop and provide our databases for the benefit the Blizzard player community, including through the Raider.IO Addon, Raider.IO Desktop Client and the Raider.IO Developer API. Blizzard, and not us, determines what information is shared with us by them to create these databases, and accordingly what information we share with the Blizzard player community and Raider.IO developers. If you do not want your information shared with us in this way, or if you want us to not share the information with the Blizzard player community or Raider.IO developers, please contact Blizzard directly and restrict data sharing in accordance with Blizzard’s instructions.
Account information
If you have an account with us and would like to review or change the information you have submitted to us through your account or terminate your account, you can:
- Log into your account and update your user settings; or
- Contact us at privacy@raider.io.
If you have linked your Raider.IO account with your Blizzard account, you can also unlink the accounts at any time through your Raider.IO account settings. Blizzard may also offer the ability to unlink the account, and you should review Blizzard’s policies and account settings.
Upon your request to terminate your Raider.IO account, we will deactivate or delete your account, provided we may allow for a cooldown period in the event you change your mind. Even after termination, some information may be retained in our files to prevent fraud, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce our Terms of Use and/or comply with legal requirements.
We may offer other options relating to character and profile visibility. Please visit your account settings for more information.
Cookies and similar technologies
Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our Sites. For further information, please see our Cookies Policy: https://raider.io/cookies-policy.
Do Not Track
Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no industry consensus as to what site and app operators should do with regard to these signals. Accordingly, unless and until the law is interpreted to require us to do so, we do not monitor or take action with respect to “Do Not Track” signals. For more information on “Do Not Track,” visit https://www.allaboutdnt.com.
Analytics and interest-based advertising
Google provides tools to allow you to opt out of the use of certain information collected by Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and by Google Analytics for Display Advertising or the Google Display Network at https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.
The companies we work with to provide you with targeted ads are required by us to give you the choice to opt out of receiving targeted ads. Most of these companies are participants of the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) and/or the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the targeted ads provided by these companies, and how to opt out of receiving certain targeted ads from them, please visit: (i) for targeted ads from DAA participants, https://www.aboutads.info/choices; and (ii) for targeted ads from NAI participants, https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Opting out only means that the selected participants should no longer deliver certain targeted ads to you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., in connection with the participants’ other customers or from other technology services).
Please note that if you opt out using any of these methods, the opt out will only apply to the specific browser or device from which you opt out. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any opt out options or programs, or the accuracy of any other entities’ statements regarding their opt out options or programs.
Opting out of email marketing
You can unsubscribe from our marketing email list at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send or by contacting us as set out in the “How Can You Contact Us About This Policy?” section below. You will then be removed from the marketing email list – however, we may still send you service-related emails that are necessary for the administration and use of your account.
11. DO WE MAKE UPDATES TO THIS POLICY?
In Short: Yes, we will update this policy as necessary to comply with relevant laws or reflect changes to our practices.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated “Revised” date and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible.

13. ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES FOR NEVADA RESIDENTS
Nevada law (NRS 603A.340) requires each business to establish a designated request address where Nevada consumers may submit requests directing the business not to sell certain kinds of personal information that the business has collected or will collect about the consumer. A sale under Nevada law is the exchange of personal information for monetary consideration by the business to a third party for the third party to license or sell the personal information to other third parties. If you are a Nevada consumer and wish to submit a request relating to our compliance with Nevada law, please contact us as at privacy@raider.io.
14. ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

We collect and use these categories of personal information for the business purposes described in the “How Do We Use Your Information?” section above, including how to manage our Sites.
We do not generally sell information as the term “sell” is traditionally understood. To the extent “sale” under the CCPA is interpreted to include the activities set out in this privacy policy, such as those disclosed in the “What is Our Stance on Analytics and Advertising?” section above, we will comply with applicable law as to such activity. We disclose the following categories of personal information for commercial purposes: identifiers, characteristics, commercial or transactions information, internet activity, geolocation data, and inferences drawn. Please review the “Will Your Information Be Shared With Anyone?” section above for further details about the categories of parties with whom we share information.

We acknowledge that you may have rights under the CCPA in connection with the personal information we process as a service provider for Blizzard. If you wish to exercise any rights you have with such personal information, please direct your request to Blizzard. We will support Blizzard to the extent required by applicable law in responding to your request.
Right to opt-out
To the extent Raider.IO sells your personal information as the term “sell” is defined under the CCPA, you have the right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information by us to third parties at any time. You may submit a request to opt-out by clicking Do Not Sell My Personal Information or emailing us at privacy@raider.io.
Authorized agent
You can designate an authorized agent to submit requests on your behalf. However, we will require written proof of the agent’s permission to do so and verify your identity directly.

15. ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES FOR DATA SUBJECTS IN EUROPE
Roles
Data protection laws in Europe distinguish between organizations that process personal data for their own purposes (known as “controllers”) and organizations that process personal data on behalf of other organizations (known as “processors”). Raider.IO acts as a controller with respect to personal data collected as you interact with our websites, emails, and advertisements. However, in some instances, Raider.IO acts as a processor where we process personal data on behalf of Blizzard, which is the controller. Any questions that you have relating to the processing of personal data by us as a processor should be directed to Blizzard.
Lawful basis for processing
Data protection laws in Europe require a “lawful basis” for processing personal data. Our lawful bases include where: (a) you have given consent to the processing for one or more specific purposes, either to us, to our service providers, or to Blizzard; (b) processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you; (c) processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation; or (d) processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or a third party, and your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms do not override those interests. Where applicable, we will transfer your personal data to third countries subject to appropriate or suitable safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses.
Your data subject rights
You have the right to access, rectify, or erase any personal data we have collected about you. You also have the right to data portability and the right to restrict or object to our processing of personal data we have collected about you. In addition, you have the right to ask us not to process your personal data (or provide it to third parties to process) for marketing purposes or purposes materially different than for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by you. You may withdraw your consent at any time for any data processing we do based on consent you have provided to us.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us as set out in the “How Can You Contact Us About This Policy?” section above and specify which right you are seeking to exercise. We will respond to your request within 30 days. We may require specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and process your request. If personal data about you has been processed by us as a processor for Blizzard and you wish to exercise any rights you have with such personal data, please direct your request to Blizzard. We will support Blizzard to the extent required by applicable law in responding to your request.
Please note that we retain personal data as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, and may continue to retain and use personal data even after a data subject request for purposes of our legitimate interests, including as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and enforce our agreements. When we have no ongoing legitimate interest to process your personal data, we will delete, de-identify, or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal data has been stored in backup archives), then we will implement measures to securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
If you have any issues with our compliance, you may contact us as set out in the “How Can You Contract Us About This Policy” section above. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection regulator in your jurisdiction.
