Data Collection

In order to have an account on this site, you must provide a username (which does not need to be your real name) and an email. That's it for the required things. You may, if you choose, add to your profile the following:

  • your location
  • anything you choose to divulge in an "About Me" section
  • anything you choose to divulge in a "Gaming Interests" section
  • links to pictures

But, to be honest, you could put anything in those fields. We don't verify what you say.

What follows is a string of words that I hope explains to you any of the GDPR stuff. (TBH, we're not certain we understand it, but hey, this stuff is really here to make lawyers happy.) We have taken the basic language from
https://gdprprivacynotice.com/ .
With a name like that, we expect (hope) they know what this stuff means.
