Security
Word Break service takes the security of your Personal Information seriously. We appreciate your membership, and will employ reasonable measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access and unsolicited contact from third party groups. To that end, all sensitive personal information (credit card data) is transmitted through secure networks supported by high-grade encryption.
However, please note that data that is transported over an open network, such as the Internet, online/cellular networks or e-mail, may be accessible to anybody. We cannot guarantee the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted via such open networks. When disclosing any personal information via an open network, you should remain mindful of the fact that it is potentially accessible to others, and consequently, can be collected and used by others without your consent. In particular, while individual data packets are often encrypted, the names of the sender and recipient are not. A third party may therefore be able to trace an existing bank account or relationship or one that is subsequently created. Even if both the sender and recipient are located in the same country, data may also be transmitted via such networks to other countries regularly and without controls, including to countries that do not afford the same level of data protection as your country of domicile.
Your data may be lost during transmission or may be accessed by unauthorized parties. We do not accept any liability for direct or indirect losses as regards the security of your Personal Information or data during its transfer via Internet. Please use other means of communication if you think this is necessary or prudent for security reasons.
Young Users
A user under the age of thirteen (13) (a “Young User”), is not allowed to send any information about yourself to us. We do not knowingly gather personal data or target interest based advertising to Young User. If we learn that a Young User submits personal data to Word Break, we will delete that data as quickly as possible.
As Word Break cannot determine when a Young User is making use of the Word Break mobile application under Parent User account, Word Break cannot determine if and when information may actually be provided by a Young User. If a Parent User becomes aware that their Young User has submitted personal information about that Young User without the consent or authorization of the Parent User, please contact us at chongwang3@gmail.com, and we will take reasonable steps to remove such data from our system.
For Users Outside of the United States Only
The Word Break Service is hosted on servers located in the United States. If you are a user accessing the Word Break Service from the European Union, Australia, Asia, or any other region with laws or regulations governing personal data collection, use, and disclosure, that differ from United States laws, you are transferring your personal data to the United States which may not have the same data protection laws as such other regions. By providing user information through the Word Break Service you are consenting to the transfer of your information to the United States for processing and maintenance in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You are also consenting to the application of United States law in all matters concerning the Word Break Service and any services offered or provided therefrom.
