Us, Polarize Poker Limited, a commercial company registered in Malta under No. C103402, hereinafter referred to as Polarize Poker, we are committed to respecting and protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy, together with our Terms of use and other documents referred to therein set out the terms and conditions under which we collect and process your personal data.

What information do we collect from you and how do we do it?
Nós podemos recolher os seguintes dados:
- Personal data, such as name and email, date of birth, address, details of identification documents, and other information you fill in on the forms and applications you send us. This includes all the information you may have given us over time, whether in service subscriptions, applications, registrations, requests for information, or support contacts.
- Data on your game, on hands played that you share with us.
- Any image, including a photograph, that you share with us, or that is taken at events organized by Polarize Poker, whether online or live.
- If you contact us or make comments on the site, we may keep a record of that correspondence and collect the data from those comments, in addition to the IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so that we can recognize and approve any subsequent comments automatically, rather than keeping them in a moderation queue.

The Gravatar service's privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
