# Privacy policy {% hint style="warning" %} **We're working on this page at the moment.** This is not the final version at the moment, but we're working hard on ironing out possible issues and covering edge cases behind the scenes. If you see this notice at the homepage, that means the entire policies site is being worked on right now but we publish working drafts to production to allow us to collect feedback early on during policy developments. {% endhint %} ## Data we collect and why ### Information from web browsers and client If you're just browsing on our websites, we collect the same basic information that most websites collect. We use common internet technologies, such as cookies and web server logs. This is stuff we collect from everybody, whether they have used our services/apps or not. The information we collect about all visitors to our website includes the visitor’s browser type, language preference, referring site, additional websites requested, and the date and time of each visitor request. We also collect potentially personally identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. We use this information from web browsers and other web clients for purposes of web analytics, service monitoring, security, and abuse prevention/mitigation. ### Information you provide through our services/apps If you create an account for our services/apps or use them with your existing social accounts via OAuth2 or OpenID Connect, we usually require you to provide some basic information about yourself. Unless you use social login, you will be asked for a non-disposable email address and password (or set up a passkey for passwordless authentication). You also have the option to give us more information if you want to, and this may include "User Personal Information." "User Personal Information" is any information about one of our users that could, alone or together with other information, personally identify him or her. Information such as a username and password, an email address, a real name, and a photograph is are example of “User Personal Information.” User Personal Information includes Personal Data as defined in the data privacy laws, such as EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Privacy Act of 2012 in the Philippines. User Personal Information does not include aggregated, non-personally identifying information. We may use aggregated, non-personally identifying information to operate, improve, and optimize our website and service. If you use our services/apps through existing platforms such as Discord bots, we receive technical and basic information about your account, such as username and user IDs, alongside interaction data from the platform. ### Information you provide through contacting us When you contact us through email or one of the available contact methods, we collect your name, email address, or [phone number used](#user-content-fn-1)[^1] for contacting us, the subject line, and the message body of the inquiry, alongside any attachments provided. ### What we do not collect If you are a child under the age of 13 in most countries (or higher in some countries), you may not use our apps and services without parental consent. Recap Time Squad does not knowingly collect information from or direct any of our content specifically to children under 13.
