2. Data We Collect / Erhobene Daten

When you use Verselink, we collect:

Account data— When you sign in via Discord OAuth, we receive your Discord username, email address, avatar URL, and Discord user ID. We do not receive your Discord password.
User-generated data— Mining sessions, survey scans, crafting inventory, and other content you create within the app.
Session data— A session token is stored in memory to keep you logged in. No cookies are set.
Analytics data— We collect anonymous page views, device type, and approximate country (via IP geolocation). Your IP address is not stored. By default analytics are cookieless— no data is persisted on your device.

We do not use advertising cookies. Analytics run cookieless by default. If you click Accept on the cookie banner, we store a first-party analytics cookie so we can recognise return visits and measure retention. If you Reject (or ignore it), analytics stay fully cookieless and nothing is stored on your device. You can change your choice any time by clearing site data.

3. Legal Basis / Rechtsgrundlage

Art. 6(1)(a) DSGVO— Consent: You actively consent by clicking “Sign In with Discord” and authorizing the OAuth connection.
Art. 6(1)(b) DSGVO— Contract fulfillment: Processing is necessary to provide the service (e.g. storing your mining sessions).
Art. 6(1)(f) DSGVO— Legitimate interest: Session cookies for authentication.

4. How We Use Your Data / Verwendungszweck

To authenticate your identity via Discord
To provide the service (storing your data, displaying your contributions)
To maintain session state (login cookies)

We do not sell, share, or use your data for advertising.

5. Third-Party Services / Drittanbieter

Discord(Discord Inc., USA) — OAuth authentication. Their Privacy Policy applies.

6. Cookies

We do notuse advertising or third-party tracking cookies. Analytics run in PostHog's cookieless mode by default, storing nothing on your device.

We ask for your consent (cookie banner) before storing an optional first-party analytics cookie. This cookie is only set if you click Accept; it lets us recognise return visits and measure retention. If you Reject, analytics remain cookieless. We remember your choice in your browser's local storage so we don't ask again. Authentication sessions use a strictly-necessary session token, which requires no consent.
