PRIVACY

• We keep only what we need to run the guild: who you are on Discord, and your event sign-ups.
• No ads, no analytics, no trackers. We never sell or share your data with anyone for marketing.
• Unlinking Battle.net erases your Battle.net data. Deleting your account erases your site account, every event sign-up, and your Discord chat XP. Both are on your Account page and take effect immediately.

"We" means SideQuest's officers, who run this site for the guild.

Signing in asks Discord for two permissions: who you are, and your membership in the SideQuest server. From those we keep:

• Your Discord ID, username, display name and avatar
• Your nickname and roles in the SideQuest server, and whether you're still in it
• When you last signed in

Your username, display name, avatar, nickname, roles and guild membership stay in sync with Discord continuously, not just when you sign in — our bot watches for changes in the SideQuest server and updates them automatically. When you last signed in only updates at sign-in. We never see your email, password or messages, and we don't keep the token Discord hands us. It's used once during sign-in and then thrown away.

When a guild master confirms you're in the in-game guild, we also keep that and when it happened. It's what opens the member channels in Discord, and a guild master can remove it.

The first time you sign in, our bot posts a notice in an officers-only Discord channel with your name, username, avatar and BattleTag (if you've linked one), so a guild master can confirm you. Clicking Approve there does the same thing as confirming you on this site; the notice is updated either way.

Guild masters can see a members' list on this site with your Discord roles, sign-in and link dates, your event sign-ups and comments, and any moderation records. When an officer creates, changes or deletes an event or addon, or changes the roster, we keep a record of which officer did it and when. If an officer deletes their account, those records keep only their display name.

Linking is optional. It asks Battle.net only for your account ID and BattleTag, and we keep those two plus when you linked. Not your characters, email or real name, and no token is kept.

Unlinking erases all three right away.

When you sign up for an event we keep your answer (going, maybe or can't), and when you give them, your character, class, role and note. On raid nights officers may also place you in a group or on the bench.

Event details and sign-ups are for signed-in members: the public can see an event's name, kind, time and place, but who's going, the plan (notes), the raid chart and the roster are only visible once you sign in with Discord. Don't put anything in a note you wouldn't say in guild chat.

Each event also has a post in the Discord #events forum, where the bot notes when someone signs up, changes their answer, adds a comment or withdraws. It mentions them by their Discord account (without a notification) and repeats their sign-up comment there.

If you click Interested on an event in Discord, we keep your Discord ID against that event. Signed-in members can see the count and the names of people who have signed in on this site; the public only sees the event's name, kind, time and place.

• sq_session keeps you signed in. It's encrypted, holds only your account number, can't be read by scripts, and lasts 30 days or until you sign out.
• During a Discord or Battle.net sign-in, the same cookie briefly holds a one-time code that stops forged sign-ins.
• If you're an officer, your browser's local storage keeps one flag, sq-officer, so the Officers link shows without a flicker. It's checked against your account on every page and removed once you're signed out or no longer an officer.
• To load instantly, your browser keeps a copy of this site's pages and pictures, and of the events and addons you last looked at, including the sign-ups shown on them. Your account page and the officers' pages are never copied. The event and addon copies are deleted whenever you sign in, sign out, sign up or edit anything, and clearing this site's data in your browser removes all of it.

No analytics or advertising cookies. If you never sign in, you get no cookies at all.

Inside the SideQuest Discord, the guild's bot keeps:

• Your chat XP and level, erased if you delete your site account
• Moderation records (warnings, timeouts, kicks and bans, including the bot's own automatic ones), with the reason and which officer acted
• A log channel only officers can read, where the bot copies edited and deleted messages, joins and leaves, and nickname and role changes
• How many people are online and in each voice channel, as numbers only, never names

These belong to your Discord account in the server, not your site account, except chat XP: deleting your site account erases it right away. Moderation records are kept to keep the guild safe, and guild masters can read them, and correct a reason, on this site.

• Discord and Blizzard (Battle.net) run the sign-ins, under their own privacy policies.
• Cloudflare sits in front of the site, and Cabotage hosts it on Amazon Web Services in the US. Like any website, they see standard request details such as your IP address in order to deliver and protect it.

That's everyone. Nothing else is shared.

• Unlink Battle.net on your Account page: your Battle.net data is erased.
• Delete my account on the same page: your site account, every event sign-up, and your Discord chat XP are erased, and you're signed out. Moderation records stay. The bot strips every Discord role it can manage from you within a minute and puts you back behind #sign-the-ledger, as if you'd just joined.
• Removing SideQuest from Authorized Apps in Discord only stops future sign-ins. It doesn't reach us, so use Delete my account to erase what we hold.

For anything else, message an officer in the SideQuest Discord.

If what we keep changes, this page and its date change with it, and anything significant gets announced in the Discord first.
