8. CHILDREN'S INFORMATION
Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important to SEGA. For that reason, SEGA does not knowingly collect, maintain, sell or share personal information or non-personally identifiable information from underage users other than as permitted by law in support of our internal operations. SEGA may identify underage users to third-party advertisers to ensure that third-party advertisers (1) do not collect personal information or non-personally identifiable information about those underage users and (2) do not show age-inappropriate ads to those underage users.
In this Privacy Policy, any reference to underage users refers to those under the age of consent to the processing of personal information in their country of residence:
* Croatia, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia – 16 or under
* Czech Republic, France, Greece, Slovenia – 15 or under
* Austria, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Italy, Lithuania, Spain – 14 or under
* United States, United Kingdom and any EU countries not listed above – 13 or under
If SEGA learns that personal information of underage users has been collected, other than for support of our internal operations, SEGA will take reasonable steps to remove such information. If you believe that we may have unintentionally collected personal information about your child who is underage, you may contact us using the details provided below.

SALE AND SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
As explained in the “How We Disclose Information” section above, we sometimes disclose information to unaffiliated third parties we collaborate with or that provide offers that we think may be of value to you. This disclosure of information may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under the CCPA. We also provide personal information to third-party advertising providers for targeted advertising purposes, so that we can provide you with more relevant and tailored ads regarding our services, or use analytics partners to assist us in analyzing the use of our services and our user/customer base. The disclosure of your personal information to these third parties to assist us in providing these services may be considered a “sale” of personal information under the CCPA, or, the “sharing” of your personal information for purposes of “cross-context behavioral advertising.”
The following chart lists the categories of personal information we have sold or shared over the last 12 months and the categories of third parties to which we have sold or shared such personal information:
