Notwithstanding the above, if a game is developed by an overseas entity, we may provide your in-game records and logs (including login logs and item transaction records) to the overseas developer for operational statistics, customer support and game security analysis, to help them optimize game services and user experience. In addition, we may contact guardians and share relevant consumption records to remind, verify and resolve suspected minor unauthorized purchases.

We will not publicly disclose your collected personal information unless required by law. If public disclosure is mandatory, we will inform you of the disclosure purpose, categories of information and sensitive data involved, and obtain your explicit consent in advance.

In the event of corporate merger, acquisition or asset transfer due to business development, we will notify you of the transaction and ensure the new controller protects your personal information in compliance with laws and at no lower standard than specified in these Guidelines.

Please refer to the dedicated instructions within each game for operational steps. We also maintain official complaint and feedback channels to respond to your inquiries promptly.

Please read the revised Guidelines carefully. Your continued use of the game constitutes your acceptance of our updated rules for personal information collection and processing.

8. Minor Protection

We attach great importance to the protection of minors’ personal information and continuously develop new protective mechanisms.

We fully implement national anti-addiction policies through dedicated anti-addiction systems to safeguard minors’ legal rights. We verify account real-name data to identify minor users and place their accounts under anti-addiction supervision. We collect login timestamps and cumulative playtime to automatically restrict gaming duration and enforce forced logouts at the system level, guiding rational gaming behavior. For suspected minor unauthorized purchases, we will attempt to contact guardians for reminders, verification and dispute resolution to support healthy internet use for minors. To further protect minors’ physical and mental health, we may implement stricter anti-addiction rules than national mandatory standards and continuously test new minor protection technologies. For example, facial recognition verification may be activated for certain games or selected users to strengthen real-name authentication accuracy and prevent identity fraud by minors.

The aforesaid facial recognition verification only compares your real facial data with the official public security authority database. A matching result means successful authentication, and your daily playable time limit will be assigned based on your actual age group. If the comparison fails or you refuse verification, you will be treated as a minor aged 12 or under and subject to corresponding anti-addiction restrictions. Encrypted facial verification data will only be used for comparison with the public security authority platform and will not be retained by us.

If you are the legal guardian of a minor, please confirm whether the minor has obtained your authorization before they use our game services or submit personal information. If you have questions regarding your ward’s personal information, please contact us via the channels specified in Section 10.

9. Miscellaneous Provisions

The general Privacy Policy sets out universal privacy clauses including user rights and information security safeguards, which shall equally apply to all game users.
