PRIVACY POLICY

// Privacy policy pursuant to Art. 13 GDPR

1. Controller

Responsible for data processing on this website is:
Zora

Email: xurzora@gmail.com

Further details can be found in the Legal Notice.

2. Hosting and Server Log Files

When you visit this website, our hosting provider automatically collects technical data transmitted by your browser (e.g. IP address, date and time of the request, page requested, browser used). These server log files are necessary for the technical operation and security of the website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, legitimate interest) and are automatically deleted after a short period unless they are needed to investigate a security incident.

3. Cookies (technically necessary)

This website uses a session cookie to recognize you during a login process and to protect forms against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). This cookie contains no tracking data, is not shared with third parties, and is technically necessary for operating the website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). It expires automatically at the end of the session or after its configured validity period, and does not require consent.

4. Registration and User Account

If you create a user account, we collect your chosen username, your password (stored encrypted using Argon2, a modern hashing algorithm - we cannot view your password ourselves), and optionally an email address if you provide one. This data is used exclusively to provide the user account (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, performance of a contract) and is stored until you have your account deleted.

During registration, recovery codes are also generated, which allow you to regain access to your account in case of a forgotten password. These codes are likewise stored only in encrypted form.

To protect against automated login attempts (brute-force attacks), we briefly process your IP address during login attempts. This is held exclusively in the server's working memory, is not stored permanently, and is automatically discarded after a short time (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, legitimate interest in the security of the service).

5. Google AdSense

This website uses Google AdSense, an advertising service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google"). Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to display and, where applicable, personalize advertising. This may involve transferring data to Google servers in the USA; Google refers to appropriate safeguards for this (including EU Standard Contractual Clauses).

Personalized advertising cookies are only set with your consent, which you can grant or decline via the cookie consent notice on your first visit to the website. Declining is just as easy as consenting. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future.

Further information on data processing by Google can be found in Google's Privacy Policy.

6. Fonts (Google Fonts, self-hosted)

This website uses the fonts Bebas Neue, DM Sans, Syne, and Space Mono from the Google Fonts catalog. However, the font files are hosted on our own server and are not loaded from Google's servers. Visiting this website therefore does not transmit any data to Google for the purpose of displaying fonts.

7. Twitch Integration

To show whether a stream is currently live, or to link to the latest VOD, our server queries the Twitch API in the background. No personal data from your visit is transmitted to Twitch in the process - the request is made exclusively server-side using our own API credentials, not with data from your browser.

8. Donations (PayPal, Ko-fi)

On the donate page, we link to PayPal (PayPal.me) and Ko-fi. If you donate through these, you leave our website and the payment is processed directly between you and the respective provider. We ourselves do not receive or store any payment data. The privacy policies of PayPal and Ko-fi apply respectively.

9. Mini-Game High Scores

If you play a round of the Tile Rush mini-game while logged in, your result is linked to your user account and shown on the leaderboard (username, score, date). Without logging in, results are only stored locally in your browser and are not transmitted to us.

10. Contact Form

If you use the contact form, we process the data you provide (name, email address, optional subject, message) in order to process and respond to your inquiry (Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR). This data is not shared with third parties and is stored only for as long as necessary to process your inquiry.

11. Your Rights

You have the right at any time to:

  • Access the data we process about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
  • Rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
  • Erasure of your data, e.g. your user account (Art. 17 GDPR)
  • Restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
  • Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
  • Object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)
  • Withdraw consent already given, with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR)

To exercise these rights, please contact the email address listed above. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.

12. Changes to this Policy

We update this privacy policy whenever the website or legal requirements change. The version published on this page at any given time applies.
