Your email address is required for registration, and is used to notify you
when it's your turn to move.
Your email address will not visible to anyone else on our site except you.
If you choose to give your email address to your opponent, you may do so by
posting a private message with your move. Otherwise, no one visiting this
site will have access to your email address, not even your opponents.
Currently, we don't even sell advertising in our email-- all our email
is for the player's benefit (usually notifying you when you have games
where it's your turn, tournament notifications, or notices of games won
or lost). However, if you set
the "email notify" option to "NO", you will not receive any email from
us, ever.
Your email address is never given out to third parties without your
EXPLICIT permission. At this time, we do not have any agreements
where we give out or sell your email address to ANYONE. So basically,
nobody but us sees your email address, and we only use your email address
to send you reminders to play your game. You can cancel these emails
from us at any time by pulling up you "Edit User Profile" page.
Many players feel more comfortable if they can see a little information
about you in your personal profile rather than just a user ID--
for example, the town where you live. You can fill in these fields on the
"biography" page. However, all this information is optional, and we do not
release this information to outsiders, and we do not use it internally for
marketing purposes.
We do use cookies to track your user ID as you move from page to page. This is
to prevent you from having to log on repeatedly as you navigate the site.
Since you already have to log on, we know who you are, so the use of cookies
does not affect your privacy in any way.
Please do not discuss very sensitive subjects in your messages, even in your
private messages. While we do make every effort to maintain the integrity
of private messages, we cannot be liable for bugs in the program that may
allow outsiders to read private messages. However, it is the policy of ItsYourTurn.com
not to monitor, edit or disclose the contents of private messages other than
what is technically necessary to process those messages.
It is our policy not ask for personal information such as your street address
or your phone number. Since we do not ask for this information, no one can
discover this information via ItsYourTurn.com unless you explicitly post it
(we strongly advise against doing this).
If anyone asks you for this information claiming to be
a representative of It's Your Turn, Inc., please notify us immediately.
