We keep this simple and collect as little as we can.
What we collect
- Your account: your email address, username, password (stored hashed, never in plain text), and anything you add to your profile such as location, bio and gear list.
- Your posts: topics, replies, likes and reports, and the time they were made.
- Basic visit logs: pages requested, browser type and the referring site, used to keep the forum running and to see how people find us.
Why
To run your account, show your posts, stop spam and fix problems. We don't sell your data and we don't run advertising trackers.
Cookies
We use a cookie to keep you logged in and to remember your light or dark theme. That's it. Sign-up uses hCaptcha to block bots, which sets its own cookies.
Who else sees it
Your posts, username and profile are public. Your email address is not. We use a few service providers to host the site, store data and send sign-up emails, and they only process data on our behalf.
Your choices
You can edit your profile at any time. If you want your account deleted, contact us. Your posts may stay, shown as “Deleted member”, so threads still make sense.
