This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and handle your information when you use the Scoreboards bot ("the Bot") and our website at scoreboards.dev ("the Website"). By using the Bot or the Website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

When you use our Bot or Website, we may collect the following information:

• Discord usernames, display names, avatars, user IDs, and server (guild) IDs
• Leaderboard data including scores, rankings, game statistics, and player names that you provide through the Bot
• Images and media you upload for Rating leaderboards, along with associated metadata (submission name, upload time, your Discord user ID)
• Rating and voting data, including which submissions you rate and the star ratings you assign
• Discord OAuth2 authentication data (access tokens) when you log in to the Website via Discord
• Server membership and role information necessary to display your leaderboards

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

• Provide and operate the Bot and Website services
• Maintain, display, and manage leaderboards
• Authenticate you when logging in via Discord
• Improve our services based on usage patterns

3. Local Storage and Session Data

The Website stores authentication tokens and user session data in your browser's local storage. This data is used solely to keep you logged in and is cleared when you log out. We do not use tracking cookies. We may use basic analytics to understand how the service is used.

4. Public Leaderboard Display

Leaderboards created via the Bot may be displayed on the Website through a unique URL and are publicly accessible by default. Public leaderboards can include Discord usernames, scores, and related game or leaderboard data that you and your server members provide. Anyone with the URL can view the leaderboard and its contents.

Images submitted to Rating leaderboards are publicly viewable alongside your Discord username. Individual star ratings you give are used to calculate public averages but are not individually attributed to you.

If you do not want a leaderboard to be publicly visible, you can mark it as private using the Bot's settings in Discord. Private leaderboards will not be displayed or accessible on the Website.

5. Image Storage and Processing

Images you upload for Rating leaderboards are automatically resized (max 1920px) and converted to WebP format to optimize storage and loading times. Processed images are stored on Cloudflare R2, a cloud object storage service provided by Cloudflare, Inc. During upload via Discord, images may be temporarily accessed via Discord's CDN before being transferred to our storage.

Images are retained as long as the associated leaderboard exists. When a leaderboard is deleted, associated images are removed. You may request deletion of specific images you uploaded by contacting us.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties. Our Website is hosted on Netlify, which may process requests as part of providing hosting services. We use Discord's API for authentication purposes. User-uploaded images are stored on Cloudflare R2; Cloudflare may process image data as part of providing storage and CDN services.

7. Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Authentication tokens are stored securely and expire automatically.

8. Data Retention

We retain your information only for as long as necessary to provide our services. Leaderboard data is retained as long as the leaderboard exists. Uploaded images are retained as long as the associated leaderboard exists. You can request deletion of your data, including specific images you uploaded, at any time.

9. Age Requirements

Our services are intended for users who meet Discord's minimum age requirement (13 years or older, or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect information from children under these age limits.

10. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Request access to the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction or deletion of your personal information
• Request deletion of images you have uploaded
• Request that we restrict or stop processing your data
• Set your leaderboards to private to control public visibility

11. Contact Us

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or want to exercise your data rights, please contact us through our Discord support server.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of significant changes by posting the updated policy on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
