3. What do the Providers do with the registered information?
The Providers conduct internal surveys regarding demographics, interests and behaviour of the users based on the information available from the registration, from questions answered at the end of the game and from our server log files. This enables us to

• personally greet you upon every visit to our page and to take your specific preferences into consideration. Therefore we can better understand our users and can optimise our range of services.
• the knowledge of your preferences leads to more interesting and more suitable advertising. Are there for example low-priced offers for pet owners, the Providers are in a position to place them specifically for participants with pets. In doing so we do not convey your personal information to advertisers.
• also we can inform you about services or products from third parties from time to time. When registering you can decide if you are interested in this information or if you would rather prefer not receiving such emails.

We treat your personal information for identification confidentially.
