A User may prevent or limit targeted advertising from device settings which may vary from device to device. For example, if you are using an iOS device with iOS 7 or a newer version, this can be done from settings/privacy/advertising by resetting advertising identifier or limiting ad tracking setting. If you are using Google Android device with Android 2.3 or a later version, you can find the ad identifier settings in the app drawer under Google Settings> Ads. Please note that activation of any applicable “Do-not-track” settings on the User’s mobile device or any other device-level setting opt outs for targeted advertising, (to the extent that such options exist) may not cease all tracking activities by Shinning Star Media Inc.'s third parties' service providers.
If you would like to cease the tracking by third parties of your on-line activities over time and across different online platforms (such as, websites, applications, etc.) and opt out of the use of your information for interest-based and targeted advertising and/or other services by certain of our third party service providers, please visit the privacy practices of such third parties and follow the instructions specified therein, including without limitation, if you wish to opt out from Flurry Analytics tracking and personalized advertisements/recommendations from Flurry, please use the following link: https://www.flurry.com/user-opt-out.html. If you wish to opt out of certain Unity Technologies ApS' personalized advertisements, please view Unity's policies at: https://unity3d.com/legal/cookie-policy#cookies. We also note that Users can opt-out of the Google Analytics Advertising Features, including through ads settings, ad settings for mobile apps, or any other available means (for example, the NAI's consumer opt-out) by going to the User's Google account settings on the User’s device and changing the User's preferences in accordance with the instructions of the device’s manufacturer and the operating system running on your device.
We may transfer (and store) information collected about you, including Personal Information, to affiliated entities, or to other third party service providers across borders and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world (all solely for legitimate business purposes). Please note that we may transfer such information to a country and jurisdiction that does not have the same data protection laws as your jurisdiction, and you consent to such transfer of information. We will take steps reasonably necessary to ensure the protection of your Personal Information (such as engaging with host providers which are privacy-shield certified or offer an equivalent level of protection). We will centralize all privacy-related decisions in (and the Personal Information may be accessed from) countries that are declared as offering an adequate level of protection of personal data by the European Commission.
