Privacy policy
What we collect
Accounts store an email address and a hashed password. Voting stores the Minecraft username you enter and a salted hash of your IP address — we never keep raw IPs with votes. Analytics are collected by our own server: page type, referrer domain, country, device class and a salted IP hash for counting unique visitors.
What we share
When you vote for a server that has vote rewards enabled, we send that server your Minecraft username so it can reward you in-game. Vote forms are protected by Google reCAPTCHA, and ads on the site are served by Google AdSense — both process data under Google's privacy policy, and AdSense may use cookies to personalize ads. That's the full list.
Retention
Raw analytics events are deleted after 90 days; only daily aggregate numbers are kept beyond that. Sessions expire after 30 days. Deleting your account deletes your servers and their data.
Cookies
We set one cookie ourselves: sid, which keeps you signed in. Google AdSense may set its own advertising cookies when ads are shown — you can opt out of personalized ads at adssettings.google.com.
