Privacy Information
Last Updated March 31, 2022
Here's a list of the type of data we store, as well as how you can delete it.
- If all you do is visit the website (without performing any actions like logging in or submitting an application), the only data stored is your user agent (sent automatically by your browser - it usually contains your browser, its version, and your operating system). This data is cleared roughly every 3 months, it is used purely for detecting bots and other malicious users. This information is generally useless on its own to anyone trying to harvest user data or compromise the server.
- If you submit an application, all the questions and your answers are saved, even if your application is rejected. Your hashed IP address (hashed using SHA512 and various salts) is also stored temporarily in order to detect when people are spamming applications. Your IP is automatically deleted about 5 minutes after you submit an application.
- If your application is accepted and you create an account, your username and password are both stored (with your password being hashed using argon2), as well as your account creation date/time, and any other on-site data generated at creation time (such as your avatar, its thumbnail, etc). Your hashed IP address is also stored for about 1 hour, as well as a count of your accounts created (although your IP is never directly linked to your account(s)).
- If you login to an account, your hashed IP address is stored for about 1 hour, as well as a count of your login attempts (although your IP is never directly linked to your account(s)).
- If you join a game, your IP address is stored in a JSON file that is sent to your browser. The client and server use this in its client/server authentication system so that we can verify that the browser that generated the ticket is the same browser that is playing the game. Although this IP is never stored on our servers, it does mean that if you give the ticket to somebody, they might be able to find out your IP address.
As well as what's noted above, any information you directly input into the website (such as a description, status, etc) is saved. Every status update you make (either for users or groups) is saved permanently, while only your most recent description is saved (and all others are discarded). Any outfits you create, as well as your latest avatar and its thumbnail, are saved to the website. Any content uploaded to the website, such as images, is saved permanently (unless it is deleted due to violating our terms of service). When you delete your account, all information is deleted, aside from any content you have uploaded to the site (such as images).
You can request an account deletion by clicking here, however, you must be offline for one week before you can delete your account. Note that your online time is updated every time you visit this site while logged in, so before deleting your account, you should log out and then set a reminder to delete it in a week.
This site makes use of HCaptcha, Cloudflare, and jsdelivr, which have their respective privacy policies linked.
