To register an account with us, you must provide including but not limited to, your name, address, phone number, email address, date of birth, gender, user ID, and a password of your choice. In addition, by becoming a member of the Site, you agree that any information you provide to iGames about yourself, will be true, accurate, current and complete when provided. This information is used to identify you as a "unique user" of the Site. If we learn that you provided false or misleading registration information including the creation of more that one account, we may terminate your access to or use of the Site without notice. You are responsible for all actions taken under your account and shall only use the Site using your own user ID and password. You must use every effort to keep your password safe and should not disclose it to any other person. You agree to (a) immediately notify iGames of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. You may not transfer or sell your user ID to any other person. You may not permit, either directly or indirectly, any other person to use your user ID or password. We will use your account information in accordance with these Terms and the Privacy Policy which can be found at http://www.alienwarearena.com/legal/privacy.

2. EVENTS
When you register for events and activities through the Site, you may be required to agree to the official rules that may include eligibility, format and prize structure. You must register separately for each event or activity. Rules and eligibility may vary.
3. PRIVACY PRACTICES
We respect your privacy and have taken specific steps to protect it. To see our Privacy Policy please go to http://www.alienwarearena.com/legal/privacy. The terms of our Privacy Policy are incorporated into these Terms by reference and constitute part of the agreement between you and iGames.
You acknowledge that, as part of your registration process and in consideration for the privilege of using the Site, and to the extent permitted by applicable laws, we may send to your computer one or more "cookies" without any further notice to you. A "cookie" is information either temporarily or permanently stored in a file on your computer. You can set your internet browser to reject cookies (refer to your internet browser instructions if you wish to do so), but that may limit your use of some convenience features at this Site. We may also obtain certain identification information about your computer and its operating system, including the identification numbers of your hard drives, central processing unit, IP addresses, and operating systems for identification purposes. The Site also collects information from you in the course of your navigation of the Site, such as the URL of the site you just came from, the browser version you use, IP ports, date/time of access, size of data transferred, pages you visit, and other "clickstream" data. We are typically not able to relate such data to you as an individual if you merely browse our Site and do not disclose your identity to us, e.g., in connection with a registration. Furthermore, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, we may obtain non-personal data from your Internet browsing software in order to make certain demographic assumptions regarding the users of the Site without any further notice to you. If we are contacted by governmental authorities and/or parties seeking legal redress against you for a violation committed by you or alleged to have been committed by you involving your use of the Site, we will cooperate fully with and all governmental authorities and any lawful orders of the court with regards to the release of information that relates to you and your use of the Site, including, but not limited to, user Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, associated personal information, and all other user information on file.
If you object to your data and other personal information being collected or used in the above ways, then do not use or register on the Site.
