The Services you can access may vary depending on which device you are using, whether you have registered for an account with SEGA (“Account”) and your country of residence. Where possible, we shall indicate which features of the Services are available or supported in your country or preferred language. Some features of the Services may still be available to you if you decide not to register for an account, as explained in Section 5 below.

  1. Registering for an Account


  1. You may be prompted to register for an Account in a number of ways, including but not limited to:


  • before, during or after the purchase of any Services, which may include prompts and notification screens during gameplay;

  • by email (where you are an existing customer of SEGA and your contact details have been collected by SEGA or any of its affiliates in accordance with the SEGA’s privacy policy, which is available to read by clicking here - https://www.sega.com/Privacy/)

1.2 You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete. SEGA reserves the right to suspend or terminate your Account if any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, not current or incomplete. You will immediately notify SEGA of any unauthorised use of your Account.

1.3 You should create your Account with a strong password, which is different from any password you use for your other online services. The system may remember your sign-in information depending on your browser and in-game client settings and whether you select the option to store these settings, which means that you will be automatically signed into your Account for some or all of the Services which are available to you. Your password may be reset at any time by clicking on the “Forgotten Password” button on the login screen. The password will be sent to the email address registered with your Account. You are responsible for safeguarding your password.
