PRIVACY POLICY

ZEUS SQUADRON

THE SHORT VERSION

We ask Discord for your user ID, username, and avatar so the site knows who you are. That's it. There's no database, no analytics, no ads, and nothing gets sold to anyone. Log out and it's gone.

Who we are

Zeus Squadron is a small group of friends who fly imaginary fighter jets together. This website is a hobby project; nobody here is running a business.

What we actually get from Discord

When you click "log in with Discord," we ask for the identify scope, which is the smallest one Discord offers. It gives us exactly three things:

Discord shows you this list on its own approval screen before anything happens. You can say no.

What we don't get

Worth being specific, because people assume the worst about "log in with X" buttons. We cannot see:

Where your information lives

In your own browser, and nowhere else. This site has no database. When you log in, those three fields go into a single cookie that is cryptographically signed, so it can't be edited or forged, and then handed back to your browser. We don't keep a copy.

That means we genuinely cannot produce a list of members, because we don't have one.

Cookies

Exactly one, called zeus_session. It's a strictly necessary cookie – it's the thing that remembers you're logged in – so there's no consent banner to click. It is set as HttpOnly (JavaScript can't read it), Secure (encrypted connections only), and SameSite=Lax (other sites can't borrow it). It expires after 30 days.

There are no tracking cookies, no advertising cookies, and no third-party cookies.

Other companies involved

We're not doing this alone, so in the interest of honesty:

Each of these has its own privacy policy, and none of them are things we control.

Analytics and advertising

None. No Google Analytics, no pixels, no heatmaps, no ad networks, no "anonymized data partners." We don't know how many people visit and we're at peace with that.

Selling your data

No. There is nothing to sell, no buyer for it, and we'd think less of ourselves.

Getting rid of it

Two options, both instant:

Since we hold nothing server-side, there's no "please delete my account" request to file. There's no account to delete.

Age

Discord requires you to be at least 13 to have an account (older in some places), and you need a Discord account to log in here, so that applies to us by default.

If this changes

If we ever add something that stores real data – a database of saved loadouts, say – we'll update this page and say so plainly rather than quietly broadening a vague sentence. The date at the bottom tells you when it last changed.

Questions

Ask an admin in the Zeus Squadron Discord. That's the whole support department.
