Fwd: Zynga is updating its Terms of Service and Privacy Policy

Hey, Eddy!

We're writing to let you know that we're updating our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. The updated Terms of Service and Privacy Policy go into effect on August 11, 2014. You can read the old and new Terms of Service here, and Privacy Policy here.

In addition to updating our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service to reflect how our business has changed and to make them more readable, we have also included some changes regarding how we will resolve disputes if they arise. In particular, for our U.S. and Canadian players, we've added a section to our Terms of Service agreeing to resolve most disputes using arbitration (if we can't get it resolved through our customer service channels, that is). Arbitration is usually a faster and more efficient alternative to going to court. Check out Section 17 of the updated Terms of Service to learn more.

Since more of our players are playing our games on their mobile devices, we updated our Privacy Policy to provide additional transparency around how we collect, use and share information in connection with our mobile games. For an explanation of some of these changes and answers to some frequently asked questions, click here. We also encourage you to review the documents in full on your own.

Though our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy have changed, our mission to connect the world through games has not. We look forward to bringing you more beloved entertainment experiences that help you connect with your friends and family anytime, anywhere.

Thanks for playing,

The Zynga Team
