Exactly what we know about you

This policy covers the Zork Empire Discord bot and its web dashboard. The two work together and read one database, so what applies to either applies to both.

It does not cover Discord itself. When you use Discord you are also under Discord's policy, and we only ever see what Discord lets you share with us.

We never ask you to type personal information. Everything we hold arrives one of two ways: you sign in with Discord, or you play inside a server the bot is in.

This list is not a set of general promises — every line on it can be checked, either from the code or from a page you open yourself.

To run what you asked for: so the bot knows who you are, remembers your progress in the server you are playing in, and so the dashboard shows you your servers rather than somebody else's.

And for two further reasons: letting each server's staff run their own server, and diagnosing faults. We do not use it for a third purpose.

We set one session cookie when you sign in, and it is what keeps you signed in between pages. The site does not work without it.

And no others: no analytics cookie, no advertising cookie, no cross-site tracking. That is why there is no cookie consent banner on this site — there is nothing to consent to.

Anything that grows over time has a fixed window in the code and is deleted automatically once it passes. These are the real windows:

The staff of the server you play in see what belongs to that server: your balance and level there, your warnings, and your ticket transcript if you opened one. They see nothing from another server — the data is separated per server.

Beyond that: Discord, because the product runs on it. No other third party. We may have to disclose data if the law requires it, and that has not happened.

You can ask for a copy of what we hold about you, for it to be corrected, or for it to be deleted. Contact us the way described at the end of this page — your Discord account id is all we need to find your data.

And you can always stop: leave the server, or revoke the application from your Discord settings. Deleting your account deletes your game progress with it, and that cannot be undone.

Discord's terms require you to be at least thirteen — more in some countries. This service follows the same requirement, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone below it. If we learn of such an account, we delete its data.

If what we collect or why we collect it changes, this page changes and the date at the top changes with it. The date moves when the meaning moves, not with every deployment.
