By accessing and using this Site, you accept and agree to these without any limitation or qualification.
In addition to the Privacy Policy, the following terms and conditions apply to users of this Site:
• Collection of personal information: We collect personal information about you through this website only
when you voluntarily submit it. This may be when you register on the website, request information,
submit comments or participate in some game, promotion, survey or other feature of the website.
Providing personal information is up to you. If you do not want your personal information collected,
please do not submit it. If you choose not to give personal information to us, we may not be able to
provide you with access to some or all of the pages on this Site or our other products and services;
• Use of your personal information: We may use your personal information as follows:
• to respond to your questions and requests, to provide you with access to certain areas and features
and to communicate with you about your activities on this website;
• to share it with our Related Parties as required to perform functions on our behalf in connection with the
Site (such as delivery of merchandise, administration of the website or promotions or other features on
it, marketing, data analysis or customer services). To do so, it may be necessary for us to transmit
your personal information to outside the above Jurisdiction and you agree to this transfer. Further use
or disclosure of the information by them for other purposes is not permitted;
• to provide you with product information or promotional and other offers from us or our Related Parties.
However, at the point of collection of your information we will provide you either an “opt in” or “opt-out”
mechanism depending on the requirements of the Site's Jurisdiction and the Site.
• An “opt-in” mechanism will provide you the opportunity to positively indicate that you would like or do
not object to our sending you such further communications and we will not send you any unless you
have “opted-in”.
• An “opt-out” mechanism will provide you the opportunity to indicate that you do not want us to send you
such further communications, and if you “opt-out” we will not send you any.
• Either way, opting-in or opting-out will be up to you and, in addition, if you do not want us to use your
personal information for a particular purpose or disclose it to a third party, you may “opt out” at any time
by contacting us as provided above. Specific opt-outs may also be provided at the point of collection or
along with the communications to you. Please note though, by opting-out, you may not be able to
participate in certain activities on the Site;
• for other purposes set out when your information is collected or in any additional terms and conditions
applicable to the particular feature of the Site; and
• in an emergency to protect the health or safety of Site users or the general public or in the interests of
national security.
Except as provided herein or in our Privacy Policy, we will not provide any of your personal information to any third parties without your specific consent.
• Children: We take the protection of children's privacy seriously. We operate this website in compliance
with all applicable laws in the above Jurisdiction. Children under the age referred to below for the

personal information to the Site. We will not, as provided by applicable law, require or request children
under this age to provide more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the
applicable activity on the Site. If we determine upon collection that a user is under this age, we will not
use or maintain his/her personal information without the parent/guardian’s consent. Without such
consent, though, the child may not be able to participate in certain activities. However, in certain
circumstances, we may maintain and use such information (in accordance with the rest of the Privacy
Policy and applicable law) in order to notify and obtain consent from the parent/guardian and for certain
safety, security, liability and other purposes permitted under applicable law. A parent/ guardian can
review, remove, change or refuse further collection or use of their child’s personal information by
contacting us as provided above (include child’s name, address and e-mail address).

information, except as provided in the Privacy Policy. Also, we may allow third parties that serve
advertisements on our Site (including our promotion partners) to place and access cookies on your
