By installing our software and using the Services, you consent to our software performing the functions described in this section.
Our software may perform any or all of the following functions in order to detect the use of illicit automated programs and ensure that we maintain a “cheat free” environment for all users: (1) scan your list of active software applications while you are using the Services; (2) scan your list of active processes while you are using the Services; and (3) scan the files in your Services and site-related program folders to ensure that only “non-hacked” versions of our software are being used. If any of the foregoing processes reveals a suspect application or process, our software may scan the files associated with the suspect application or process and compile a composite mesh (i.e., a profile that characterizes the files associated with the application or process) to be matched against profiles for known illicit automated programs. Our software may scan your device operating system to determine if it has been altered in a manner unauthorized by its manufacturer or “jailbroken.”
Our software will not perform any random search of large portions of your hard drive, equipment or files, and it will not transmit any information to us or to any third party other than the information necessary to identify use of illicit automated programs as described above. Our software will not alter any files or information on your computer or other equipment and will not interfere with the operation of any of your applications. you may terminate use of our software at any time by uninstalling our software package.
