How we store your personal information

Your personal information is stored in our database. We provide high level security and controls to protect your personal information against unauthorised access. Your personal information is retained as long as the purpose for which it was collected remains and until it is no longer necessary for legal purposes.

Security

  • Your MapleStorySEA Passport Account and games account information is password-protected for your privacy and security.
  • In certain areas we use industry-standard SSL-encryption to protect data transmissions.
  • While we take reasonable precautions against possible security threats, there is no such thing as “perfect security” on the Internet, so we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. We strongly recommend that you take steps to maximize the security of your Personal Information, such as not sharing your login information and promptly logging out of your account each time after you are done using our Service.

Spam Control Act

You may at any time "opt out" of receiving marketing materials described in this Privacy Policy from us and/or our affiliates and advertisers working on our behalf. The marketing materials that we send you (e.g. e-mails) will indicate that such materials are from us and will always provide you with a method of "opting out" of receiving future materials of a similar nature. To “opt out,” you may utilize the Unsubscribe functionality included in our e-mails, or you may change your communication preferences at your MapleStorySEA Passport profile and you may contact our Customer Support Division by submitting an IBox ticket, or you may edit your account information on our Service accordingly.

Access to Personal Information

Where allowed by law, you may request access to your Personal Information. To do so, please submit an IBox ticket to our Customer Support Division. We will process that request in line with our policies and procedures in place for dealing with such requests.

There may be circumstances where we are unable to provide access to your Personal Information. We may deny, or restrict access for legally permissible reasons, such as situations where the information contains references to other individuals and is not reasonably severable, or where it cannot be disclosed for legal, security, or commercial proprietary reasons. We will advise you of any reason for denying or restricting an access request.

Security of Your Information

Although we do not represent that we follow any particular, independent code of best practices, we maintain reasonable physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your information. For example, we protect some of your Personal Information by using a firewall and Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption.

While we take reasonable precautions against possible security threats, there is no such thing as “perfect security” on the Internet, so we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. We strongly recommend that you take steps to maximize the security of your Personal Information, such as not sharing your login information and logging out of your account after you are done using our Service.

All users should be aware that, when they disclose Personal Information to others through or by using the Service, the information being shared may be made publicly available and may be collected and used by others outside of the control of Playpark.

Email Policy

Email Address Collection and Usage Policy – MSPassport/Playpark


 

1. Introduction

This policy outlines how MSPassport ("the Portal") collects, uses, stores, protects, and manages email addresses provided by its members. We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of our members' personal information, including their email addresses, in compliance with applicable data protection laws and best practices.


 

2. Scope

This policy applies to all email addresses collected from members through their registration, usage, or interaction with MSPassport. It also applies to all employees, contractors, and third parties who, in the course of performing their duties or providing services to MSPassport / PlayPark may have access to such email address data. This Policy applies regardless of the geographic location of the member, the location of our servers, or the country from which the Portal is accessed.


 

3. Collection of Email Addresses 

  • Voluntary Provision: Email addresses are primarily collected when members voluntarily provide them during the registration process for an account on the Portal or when participating in Portal’s activities, campaigns, or promotions that require an email address for eligibility, communication, or fulfilment purposes.

  • Account Management: Email addresses may also be collected or updated when members manage their account settings or interact with specific features requiring an email for verification or communication or when contacting Portal’s customer support or service channels.

  • Consent: By registering and providing an email address, members explicitly consent to the collection and usage of their email address in accordance with this policy and represent and warrant that the email address provided is accurate, valid, and owned or lawfully controlled by them. The Portal shall be entitled to assume, without any obligation to verify or investigate, that any email address submitted is provided by the true and lawful owner thereof. Any email address submitted that is not owned or authorised by the true owner is provided at the member’s sole risk, and the Portal shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, or dispute arising therefrom.


 

4. Purpose of Collection and Usage

Email addresses are collected and used for the following primary purposes:

  • Account Creation and Management: To create and maintain member accounts, facilitate login, password resets, and account-related notifications.

  • Essential Communications: To send important service announcements, terms of service updates, privacy policy changes, and security alerts directly related to the member's use of the Portal.

  • Transactional Communications: To send notifications related to specific actions taken by the member on the Portal (e.g., confirmation of a forum post, notification of a new message, order confirmations if applicable), and other communications reasonably arising from the member’s interactions with the Portal

  • Reward Delivery: To send rewards such as ItemCodes to eligible members or winners of events and campaigns conducted by MSPassport/PlayPark, and to administer loyalty, incentive, or similar benefit programmes.

  • Customer Support: To respond to member inquiries, provide technical support, and address issues or feedback.

  • Optional Marketing Communications (with consent): With explicit opt-in consent, email addresses may be used to send newsletters, promotional offers, updates about new features, or other marketing materials from MSPassport/PlayPark or its carefully selected partners. Members will always have the option to opt-out of these communications.

  • Security and Fraud Prevention: To verify identity, detect and prevent fraudulent activities, and enhance the security of member accounts and the Portal.

  • Analytics and Improvement: To analyze usage patterns, improve the functionality and user experience of the Portal, and develop new features. This is typically done with aggregated or anonymized data where possible.

  • Other Related Purposes: For any other purposes reasonably necessary or incidental to the operation, administration, protection or improvement of the Portal and its related services, or as otherwise notified to members from time to time in accordance with applicable law (including, where required, with the member’s consent).


 

5. Data Storage and Security

  • Secure Storage: Email addresses are stored on secure servers with appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

  • Encryption: Email addresses and other sensitive data are encrypted both in transit and at rest where feasible and appropriate.

  • Access Control: Access to email address data is strictly limited to authorized personnel who require it for the performance of their duties, and who are bound by confidentiality obligations.

  • Data Retention: Email addresses will be retained for as long as a member maintains an active account on the Portal, and for a reasonable period thereafter as required by law or for legitimate business purposes (e.g., audit trails, dispute resolution). Upon account closure, email addresses will be anonymized or securely deleted, unless required to be retained by law.


 

6. Sharing of Email Addresses

  • No Sale of Data: We will never sell, rent, or lease member email addresses to third parties for their independent marketing purposes without explicit consent. For the avoidance of doubt, this does not prevent the sharing / transfer of email address data in connection with a permitted business transfer as described below.

  • Affiliates and Group Companies: We may share email addresses with our parent company, subsidiaries, and other affiliated or related entities within the same corporate group, to the extent reasonably necessary for the operation, administration, support, improvement, or promotion of the Portal and related services, subject to this Policy and applicable law.

  • Service Providers: We may share email addresses with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the Portal, providing services, or conducting our business (e.g., email delivery services, customer support platforms, hosting providers). These service providers are contractually bound to protect the confidentiality and security of the data and are prohibited from using email addresses for any purpose other than providing the services to us.

  • Legal Compliance: We may disclose email addresses if required to do so by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests, protect our rights or property, investigate or prevent fraud, security or technical issues, or ensure the safety of our members or the public.

  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, member email addresses may be transferred as part of the transaction. Members will be notified of any such change of ownership or control.


 

7. Member Rights and Choices

Members have the following rights regarding their email addresses:

  • Access and Correction: Members can access and update their email address and other account information through their Portal profile settings.

  • Opt-Out of Marketing Communications: Members can opt-out of receiving marketing communications at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in the email or by adjusting their notification preferences in their account profile settings. Please note that even if you opt-out of marketing emails, we may still send you essential service-related communications. Changes related to opting out of receiving marketing emails may take up to 7 (seven) working days to take effect due to the processing of ongoing campaigns. Where the delivery of marketing communications is handled by third-party service providers, the Portal shall, within seven (7) working days of receiving the opt-out request, notify the relevant service provider to effect such opt-out. The member acknowledges and agrees that the Portal does not control the internal processing timelines of such third-party service providers and that a reasonable delay may therefore occur. The Portal shall not be responsible or liable for any such delay beyond its reasonable control.

  • Opt-Out on External Systems: Opting out of receiving emails from PlayPark / Portal in systems not within MSPassport may affect our ability to send you emails which may include rewards or prizes. The Portal shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or consequence arising from such non-delivery.

  • Account Deletion: MapleStorySEA Passport accounts and all game accounts contained within cannot be deleted once they have been created due to server policy restrictions, limitations and for legal or legitimate business purposes as outlined in Section 5. We can only suspend the whole account permanently and wipe your registered personal particulars if you do not wish to continue playing our games and using our services. All unique particulars registered to the account such as LoginIDs and 13-digit PassportIDs cannot be re-used to recreate other accounts.

  • Withdraw Consent: Members can withdraw their consent for the processing of their email address at any time, although this may affect their ability to use certain features of the Portal.


 

8. Children's Privacy

MSPassport is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 6. We do not knowingly collect email addresses or other personal information from children without verifiable parental consent. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child without proper consent, we will take steps to delete that information.


 

9. Changes to this Policy

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Members will be notified of any material changes to this policy through their registered email address or prominent notice on the Portal. Continued use of the Portal after such notification constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
