Privacy for Younger Players


Posted: July 18, 2024


WHY AM I SEEING THIS?

This page provides information to our younger players about NetEase Games collects, uses, and shares data about users of our services. We are providing this content so that you can easily understand what kinds of personal information we collect, how we use it, and what happens to your personal information.

If you want to know more details about the personal information that NetEase Games collects and uses, please ask a responsible adult to help you read our entire Privacy Policy.


WHO IS NETEASE GAMES?

NetEase Games is a developer and publisher of games, apps, websites, and other digital services used by players around the world. We are part of the wider group of NetEase companies.


WHAT IS "PERSONAL INFORMATION"?

Personal information is anything that can be used to identify a person or that relates directly to a person. It's also sometimes called "personal data." Some examples of personal information that NetEase Games collects are things you may already be familiar with, like username, avatar, email address, and birthday. Personal information can also refer to data that is collected automatically, like the actions that a player takes inside of a game, messages they share, or technical information about the device or computer they are using.


WHAT DO YOU DO WITH PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We use it to provide our Services and to give our players fun, safe, and unique user experiences. For example, we use personal information to keep track of a player's progress within a game, help players connect with each other, send updates about our games, complete player purchases, and enforce our community rules. We also use it for things like helping us understand who our players are and how we can improve our services.

Sometimes, we need to share personal information with other companies in the NetEase group or with other people in order to operate our services or to make sure we are following legal requirements. For players who are under a certain age, we need to get permission from their parent or guardian before enabling some services or features.

Our full Privacy Policy describes the different ways we use and share personal information.


HOW CAN I CONTROL MY PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We provide different options to adjust privacy settings depending on the specific game, app, website, or service you are using. A responsible adult can help you with these.

Depending on where you live, you also may have legal rights over how companies like us manage your personal information. For example, you can ask us for a copy of the personal information we collected about you, ask us to delete your personal information, or ask us to make changes to incorrect information.


HOW CAN I STAY SAFE AROUND OTHER PLAYERS?

Review your privacy settings to limit who can see your content or contact you in the game or app. When sharing information that might be seen by other players (like in a chat or on a profile page), don't share your real name, location, email address, or any other information that could help someone find you outside of the game or app. Don't send anyone pictures of you. Tell a responsible adult if anything or anyone makes you feel uncomfortable online, and use in-game reporting features to report harassing or harmful behavior.
