Privacy Policy

Effective Date: May 18, 2025

This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information when you use our private server (the “Game”) and its associated website (the “Website”), which serves as a control panel for account management and server-related features. We are committed to safeguarding your privacy, but we also acknowledge the inherent risks in online services. Please read this policy carefully to understand our practices.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum information necessary to operate the Game and Website effectively:

  • Account Information: When you register for an account on the Website or Game, we collect your email address, username, and a hashed password. Additional details, such as in-game character data (e.g., character names, levels, and inventory), are stored in our database as part of gameplay.
  • Technical Information: We collect technical data, such as IP addresses, browser types, device information, and server logs, to ensure the security and functionality of the Game and Website.
  • Donation Information: If you make a voluntary donation, we store technical transaction details (e.g., transaction ID, date, and amount) but do not retain sensitive payment information, which is handled by third-party payment processors.
  • Communication Data: If you contact us via the Website, Discord, or in-game support, we may store your messages to assist with your inquiries.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information solely for the following purposes:

  • Account Management: Your email and account details are used to create and manage your Game account, process registrations, and send account-related notifications (e.g., password resets, account verification).
  • Game Functionality: In-game data is used to operate the server emulator, ensuring your gameplay experience is saved and functional (e.g., character progress, inventory).
  • Notifications: We may occasionally send emails to inform you about server updates, maintenance, or events. Rarely, we may send promotional emails encouraging you to return to the Game. You can opt out of promotional emails at any time via the Website’s account settings or by contacting us.
  • Security and Monitoring: Technical data (e.g., IP addresses, logs) is used to detect and prevent unauthorized access, cheating, or other violations of our server rules.

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

  • No Sharing or Selling: We do not share, sell, or disclose your personal information to third parties, except as required by law or to protect the integrity of the Game and Website (e.g., reporting illegal activities to authorities).
  • Third-Party Processors: Payment processors handle donation transactions securely. We do not store sensitive payment details, and these processors operate under their own privacy policies.
  • Legal Obligations: We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or to comply with legal processes.

4. Data Storage and Security

  • Storage: All account and gameplay data is stored in a secure database managed by our server infrastructure. Passwords are stored in hashed form to protect them from unauthorized access.
  • Security Measures: We implement industry-standard security practices to protect your data, including encryption, firewalls, regular backups, and server monitoring. We log activities and maintain notifications to detect potential security issues.
  • Security Disclaimer: While we strive to maintain the highest level of security for our Game and Website, no online service is 100% secure. All game servers, including ours, are potentially vulnerable to hacking, unreported CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures), or other cybersecurity threats. In the event of a data breach or server compromise, we will take immediate action to mitigate damage and notify affected users as appropriate. However, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data due to the evolving nature of cybersecurity risks.

5. User Recommendations for Safety

To enhance your security while using our Game and Website, we recommend:

  • Using a unique email address not associated with your primary or sensitive accounts.
  • Creating a strong, unique password for your account (not reused from other services).
  • Avoiding sharing your account details with others, as you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account.
  • Reporting any suspicious activity or potential security issues to our staff immediately via the Website, Discord, or in-game support.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

  • Retention: We retain your account and gameplay data for as long as your account remains active or as needed to provide services. If your account is inactive for an extended period (e.g., 12 months), we may delete your data unless otherwise requested.
  • Deletion Requests: You may request the deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us through the Website or Discord. Note that some technical logs may be retained for security and legal purposes.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal data, such as:

  • Accessing the data we hold about you.
  • Requesting corrections to inaccurate data.
  • Requesting deletion of your data.
    To exercise these rights, contact us via the Website or Discord. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe, subject to legal and technical limitations.

8. Children’s Privacy

Our Game and Website are not intended for users under the age of 18 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). If we become aware that a user under this age has provided personal information, we will delete it immediately.

9. Third-Party Links

The Website may contain links to third-party services (e.g., payment processors, Discord). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these third parties. Please review their privacy policies before engaging with them.

10. Disclaimer: Inherent Risks

All online game servers, including ours, are inherently susceptible to hacking, exploits, or other cybersecurity incidents. While we actively monitor and protect our systems, unforeseen vulnerabilities (e.g., unreported CVEs) may be exploited. By using our Game and Website, you acknowledge these risks and agree that the server administration is not liable for losses or damages resulting from such incidents, provided we are taking reasonable measures to secure our systems.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify users of significant changes via the Website, in-game announcements, or email. The updated policy will take effect upon posting, with the effective date noted at the top of this page.

12. Contact Us

If you have questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or your data, please contact us via:

  • The Website’s support section.
  • Our official Discord server.
