Final Fantasy Online values your privacy. We treat your personal information with the highest standards of security and confidentiality.

Final Fantasy Online does not collect any personal information without your knowledge. We don't sell, rent, or give your personal information to unrelated third parties without your prior permission. Likewise, any personal information you willingly provide to Final Fantasy Online, such as information stored in your member profile, is made public at your own discretion. You do not have to fill out a membership profile to enjoy the benefits of a Final Fantasy Online membership account.

Cookies are only required to access membership features of Final Fantasy Online, but do not contain any personal information about you, nor track your activity outside of Final Fantasy Online.

In retrospect, cookies aren't needed if you wish to simply browse the site, but are required if you wish to become a member.

Each time a visitor comes to Final Fantasy Online, information is collected to help us improve the overall experience of our site. This information allows us to determine which areas of the site are used more frequently than others, how certain features of the site are used, and how users make the most of the content available. We collect visitor domain names or IP addresss (e.g., whether the user is logged on from comcast.net or yale.edu or 255.255.255.0), referral data (e.g., we record the address of the last URL a user visited prior to clicking through to Final Fantasy Online), and browser/platform types (e.g., a Firefox browser on a Macintosh platform).

Likewise, Final Fantasy Online also counts, tracks, and aggregates visitor activity into our analysis of general traffic flow (e.g., tracking where traffic comes from and how traffic flows within the site). Final Fantasy Online may merge this information into group data, which may then be shared on an aggregated basis with potential advertisers, research firms, and business partners. However, Final Fantasy Online will never disclose your individual identity or personal data. If Final Fantasy Online presents any aggregated information to potential advertisers, research firms, and business partners, no one will be able to identify you or contact you.

Final Fantasy Online never shares, sells, or rents any personal information without your permission, unless ordered by a court of law. Information submitted to us is only available to employees managing this information for purposes of contacting you or sending you e-mails based on your request for information.
