Our goal at Zynga is to provide the most fun, most social, and overall best online gaming experience possible, and that means ensuring that Zynga games are safe and secure.
Play Secure
We go to great lengths to protect your information and your privacy, but there are also simple things you can do as a player to contribute to the safety of Zynga’s games. For example, taking a few steps to protect your Zynga account will help make sure your gameplay remains fun and uninterrupted.
Here are some tips to help you play secure:
• Never give anyone your login name and password for your Zynga account or for the platform on which you play Zynga games (e.g., Facebook, Apple, Google Play, etc.). Zynga and its employees will never ask for your login information.
• Never give out your personal information, like your social security number or full credit card information, to anyone.
• Don't reuse your passwords. Create a unique and strong password for every account or login you have.
• Be wary of messages that sound too good to be true (such as advertisements for free chips or virtual currency).
• Always use caution when clicking on a link and consider the source. If someone sends you a link to a web page that requires you to input your login or password, close that page immediately. This also applies to links posted on Zynga Fanpages by other players. Just because a link is posted by another player on a Zynga Fanpage doesn’t mean that the link is approved by Zynga. We do our best to take down scammy or phishing posts when we learn about them, but be smart before you click.
