Privacy policy

The short version

This is a documentation site. It has no accounts, no contact form, no comment section and no shopping cart. There is almost nothing for us to collect, and we have deliberately kept it that way. If you read a guide and leave, we hold no personal information about you beyond what your browser tells every web server it talks to.

Information we collect

Server logs. Like any web host, our server records requests: the IP address making them, the page requested, a timestamp, the referring page and your browser's user-agent string. This is standard infrastructure logging used for security and to diagnose faults. These logs are retained for a limited period and then discarded.

Email you send us. If you write to info@sinytraconnector.org, we hold your message and address for as long as it takes to answer you. We do not add you to a mailing list, because we do not have one.

Nothing else. We do not ask for your name, we do not create profiles, and we do not sell, rent or trade information about visitors to anyone.

Cookies

This site sets no tracking cookies and no advertising cookies of its own. If a future version introduces any optional cookie, it will be disclosed here before it ships, and it will be optional.

Analytics

If privacy-respecting analytics are used, they are configured to record aggregate page views without setting persistent identifiers, without fingerprinting and without building a profile of an individual visitor. We want to know which guides get read. We have no interest in who read them.

Third-party links

Our download buttons deliberately send you off this site — to the official GitHub releases page — because those are the developer's own release channels and we will not mirror a mod binary. Once you follow one of those links you are on someone else's property, subject to their privacy policy and not ours. We would encourage you to read theirs; we have no control over what they collect.

The same applies to any other outbound link on this site. A link is not an endorsement of another party's data practices.

Fonts and assets

Web fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser makes a request to Google's servers and that request carries your IP address. If you would rather it did not, the fonts can be self-hosted; the stylesheet is structured so that this is a one-line change for anyone deploying this site themselves.

Children

Minecraft has a young audience, so this matters. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and there is no mechanism on this site through which a child could supply any. If you believe a child has sent us personal information by email, write to us and we will delete it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete the personal data an organisation holds about you, and to object to its processing. Given how little we hold, exercising those rights is usually straightforward: email us and we will act on it. We will not ask you to prove your identity by sending us more personal information than we already have, which would defeat the purpose.

Changes

If this policy changes materially, the date at the top of the page changes with it and the substance of the change is described here rather than buried in a diff. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised policy.
