Plain-English summary
The policy outlines that personal information shared in public forums is viewable by others, and some cached gameplay information cannot be removed from other players' devices even after deletion requests (risk_flags-2). Account deactivation results in permanent loss of game progress and virtual items (risk_flags-3). User chat messages are subject to monitoring and review by the company (risk_flags-4). The company shares data with third-party marketing and advertising partners, who may combine it with other data for targeted ads (data_use-1, data_use-3), and users may be opted into targeted advertising by default where local laws allow (data_use-2). If the company's assets are sold, user information can continue to be used by the new entity under the same policy (data_use-4). Even after opting out of targeted ads, users will still see other advertisements. Non-US residents who opt out of targeted ads in the games may still receive them from Facebook, requiring separate action (gotchas-2).
