Privacy Policy

Who runs this

TarkovTracker is a hobby Discord bot run by one person. Contact for any privacy question or request: jordanrshanratty@gmail.com.

What is collected

Only what the bot needs to count team kills and hand out roles:

• Discord user IDs of the people involved in a logged incident.
• Display names as they appeared when the incident was logged, so leaderboards stay readable.
• Timestamps of each incident, plus season history and achievements.
• Server details: the server ID and name, the logging channel ID, the Champion and Sponge role IDs, and the user IDs of anyone granted admin access.

A Discord user ID identifies a person, so this is personal data and is treated as such. Nothing is collected about people who never appear in a logged incident.

What is never collected

• Message content. The bot reads slash commands, not conversations.
• Direct messages, voice, attachments or anything from outside the commands you run.
• Email addresses, real names, passwords or payment details.
• Tracking cookies or analytics on this website. There are none.

How it is used

To count incidents, build leaderboards, assign the Champion and Sponge roles, run seasons, and show the public dashboard. That is the whole list. Data is never sold, rented, or shared with advertisers, and it is not used to train anything.

Statistics shown on the public dashboard come from these records, so a display name that appears on a leaderboard is visible to anyone who visits the site.

Where it is stored

• On a private virtual server, in a separate folder for each Discord server, so no server can see another's data.
• Backed up once a day to encrypted off-site storage. The last 14 backups are kept, so a backup is gone within roughly two weeks.
• This website is served through Cloudflare, which processes ordinary web request information such as IP addresses in order to deliver the page. That is Cloudflare's handling, not something this bot stores.

Deleting your data

Three ways, and the first two are immediate:

• Remove the bot from your server. Everything stored for that server is deleted automatically the moment it is kicked. Nothing is kept in reserve.
• Run /admin forget confirm:true. Same deletion, without removing the bot. Server owners and delegated admins only.
• Email the address above. Say which server or user should be removed and it will be handled by hand.

Deletion covers live storage straight away. Copies inside existing daily backups disappear as those backups roll off, within about two weeks.

What survives deletion

One thing, and it identifies nobody: a running count of how many incidents have ever been recorded and how many servers have been forgotten. Plain numbers. No user IDs, no display names, no server IDs, nothing that can be traced back to a person or a server. It exists so a lifetime total on the dashboard still means something after servers come and go.

Your rights

You can ask what is held about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. Email the address above and expect a reply within 30 days. There is no account to log into and no charge for any of this.

Children

Discord requires users to be at least 13, or older where local law says so. This bot is not directed at children and collects nothing beyond what is described above.

Changes

If this policy changes, the effective date at the top changes with it. Material changes will be announced on the dashboard.
