You should note that this is not legal advice nor was it written by a certified legal professional and it is not an expansive list. Join the Discord on our main page for questions.

Collection of Information

  • To make an account, you must provide at the minimum an email address.
    • You have no requirement or obligation to use your real personal email, only one that is valid and can be used to contact you.
  • Your real name is an optional field and you have no requirement or obligation to submit it.
  • Anything you submit in a page editor will be collected within the database permanently.
  • General information related to your visit to the website is collected, as it is on all other websites as well, even if you do not interact with the site.
    • This information may include your public IP address, time of visit, and the duration of your visit.
    • Collected logs have a rotation frequency or retention period of 52 days, which is the server software's default.

Use of Information

  • Your email address is not shared with other editors or third parties.
    • Actions that will lead to your address being implicitly shared with another party will be notified to you and it is your discretion to share it.
  • Your real name (or the content in the field) is only used by the MediaWiki software and we make no explicit use of it.
    • Go to the MediaWiki site for more information on how the field is used.
  • All content submitted within a page editor is publicly available.
    • Superseded edits are still available in page history.
    • This data is stored permanently.
  • General information collected by the web server is retained for the default of 52 days before rotation.
    • Web server logs may be used by administrators and server staff for cybersecurity analysis. This commonly entails analysis of IP address classification (residential, business, datacenter, etc.) and subnet, if applicable. This may result in the ban of an IP address or subnet range if suspicious activity is detected at a significant level. If you believe you have been banned by mistake, you may contact us via Discord or email.
  • Information related to your visit is used for analytics by Google Analytics. We apologize for this.
    • Your IP address is anonymized before being sent to Google Analytics, however, and you are free to use a VPN, Tor, or any other internet anonymizer at your discretion. If you feel that the IP address is blocked, contact us via the email on the main page.

Commitments

  • Any information collected is kept secure to the best of our abilities.
  • Your information will never be sold to third parties by us.
  • Information and data will only be retained as per software defaults and not any longer.
    • Exception including the retention period of Google Analytics.
