| 7 | 7 | These FAQs provide a handy entry point to our longer and more comprehensive Privacy Policy (see Section 2 below). They are intended to enhance rather than replace the important notices in the Privacy Policy, which governs our collection, use, storage, and sharing of the information that we collect or receive from you. |

| 11 | We are updating our policy to include a reference to our service provider's privacy statement in Section 5. We are notifying you by asking you to accept this new policy to be sure you see this update. Please note if you do not pay your Unity fees by credit card, this change has no effect on you. Other changes on May 27, 2020 include an addition of three partners in Section 16 for ads network partners. Note players in the European Union have had this information available to consider prior to today; however, we will only now begin sharing ads data with those partners for EU players. Finally, we have added a section about features involving Unity's access to cameras on devices. You will note there is similar language in the consent we request for access to the camera, and we do not collect images from your device at this time. | |
| 11 | On July 1, 2020, we made an edit to Section 12 to add a link to our California Consumer Privacy Act Transparency Report. | |

| 13 | 15 | Additionally, as of March 10, 2020, we are adding a last edit/review date. The difference between an edit/review and an update is that "updates" involve material changes to our policy whereas edits are not material or simply indicate a review has occurred. For example, we may make clarifying edits by giving additional examples. When we provide an update, you receive a notice to accept and read the changes, which are summarized in this first FAQ. |

| 15 | 17 | As reminder, we enhanced our FAQs in May 2018 to provide more examples of how we may use some of the data we collect. These answers enhanced our prior explanations but are not intended to imply that these are new uses of collected data. Additionally, if your data indicates you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), we have added information regarding new choices enabled for in-game advertising, and information on how you can exercise your data access and deletion (erasure) rights. We have added the l"Data Privacy" icon to our ads, dashboards, and other points of interaction: |
| 16 | 18 | |
| 17 | 19 | This icon will show you where you can review your data and exercise your privacy choices. It is meant as a helpful access point for viewing your personal data in the context of its use within Unity systems. For those playing games where Unity ads appear, you may see the icon instead of the traditional information ("ℹ") button. For those using our software to build games, you may see it in a privacy dashboard. |

| 503 | 505 | 6. _A right not to be discriminated against for exercising your rights._ |
| 504 | 506 | |
| 505 | 507 | - _Please note Unity does not discriminate in its provision of services to you based on exercising your rights._ |
| 506 | 508 | - _Your requests to delete data is limited to data that Unity is not allowed to retain under the CCPA. Unity may retain data for certain purposes, including completing transactions for you or reasonably related to completing transactions for you, detecting security incidents, illegal activity and fraud, maintaining our systems, complying with applicable law and legal obligations, engaging in public or peer reviewed research provided we comply with applicable ethics and privacy laws related to such research, or enabling solely internal purposes such as financial recordkeeping._ |
| 507 | 509 | - _You may ask a third party representative to assist you in exercising your rights. Third parties may write to [DPO@unity3d.com](mailto:DPO@unity3d.com) to provide documentation of their right to act on your behalf. If you are a game player, we will not have a way to locate records about your outside of an app using Unity's software, but you may direct your reports to be sent to your representative once you have verified your identity inside of the app. Unity account holders may also send data reports obtained through your account directly to your representative. You need only to provide their email or mailing address instead of your own when ordering. For third party representatives writing in on behalf of Unity account holders, please provide the name and any signed documentation you may have to act on behalf of the account holder, or you may ask the account holder to write to us from their account email to provide us permission to transact with you directly. Unity reserves the right to take reasonable steps to verify the authenticity of identities and authorizations in compliance with applicable laws prior to making any disclosures._ |

| 510 | 513 | _Sharing with third parties for direct marketing purposes:_ California residents have the right to request the identity of any third parties to whom the resident's personal information was shared, if such sharing was to enable the third party's direct marketing efforts. If you are a California resident and wish to make such a request, please submit your request to [DPO@unity3d.com](mailto:DPO@unity3d.com) OR to opt-out of having your personal information shared with third parties for their direct marketing purposes, please email us at [DPO@unity3d.com](mailto:DPO@unity3d.com). |
| 511 | 514 | - _How we respond to "Do Not Track" signals:_ We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our Services for third-party purposes, and that is why we provide information in our [Cookie Policy](https://unity3d.com/legal/cookie-policy) about how to prevent the delivery of targeted ads, and information in this policy about how to prevent Google Analytics and Twitter from collecting information. We do not, however, recognize or respond to browser-initiated Do Not Track signals, as the Internet industry is currently still working on Do Not Track standards, implementations, and solutions.
