cookiecraftmods is an integrated mod, creator, and community platform. You can browse public pages without creating a traditional local account, but we collect and store certain information when you visit the site, sign in, interact with community features, or manage a profile.

• Account and sign-in data, including your name, email address, and Discord account data when you sign in with Discord, such as Discord ID, username, avatar, display name, and email address if Discord provides it.
• Profile data you choose to add or edit, such as display name, headline, tagline, pronouns, avatar, banner, bio, location, website, public email preference, online-status preference, Discord invite, social links, featured projects, profile theme and customization settings.
• Community and creator activity data, such as posts, devlogs, publication submissions, comments, replies, likes, follows, notifications, and timestamps associated with those actions.
• Project interaction data, such as followed projects, followed creators, download events, release/version interactions, and basic counters related to views or engagement.
• Session, security, and technical data, such as session records, IP address, browser or device information, user agent, and timestamps used to operate, secure, and troubleshoot the service.
• Analytics data for site traffic and downloads, including route or page path, visit time, and hashed session or IP identifiers used for aggregated traffic and download measurement.
• Moderation and administration data, such as role assignments, activity logs, mute or ban status, moderation reasons, and internal notes or context connected to staff actions.
• Guest community data when guest posting is enabled, including a session-linked display name or guest identifier generated to support comments or replies without full Discord sign-in.

We use collected information to operate, secure, improve, and moderate the website and the platform features connected to it.

• Provide sign-in, account recognition, session management, and role-based access control.
• Display profiles, creator pages, community posts, comments, replies, likes, follows, and notifications.
• Run the integrated platform experience, including mod discovery, devlogs, roadmap-related features, project updates, and creator-community interactions.
• Measure traffic, page performance, visits, downloads, and feature usage so we can understand how the platform is used.
• Detect abuse, enforce rate limits, filter spam or unsafe content, investigate misuse, and keep the platform safe.
• Support moderation, auditing, debugging, and internal administration.

We use essential cookies, session storage, and related technologies to keep the site working, remember login state, secure requests, preserve preferences, and support community interactions. Some third-party services embedded in or linked from the site may also place their own cookies or similar technologies under their own policies.

Comments, replies, likes, follows, devlogs, publication posts, profile pages, and project-related updates may appear in public-facing areas of the platform. If you submit content or enable profile details, your account name, avatar, public profile fields, and associated project activity may be visible to other users. Roadmap or progress-related content tied to a project may also be displayed publicly when published through the platform.

We keep technical and operational logs to protect the site and understand how it is used. This may include sign-in activity, moderation actions, control-panel actions, route or page visits, and download events. Some analytics identifiers are stored in hashed form, such as hashed session IDs or hashed IP data for traffic and download measurement, while certain security or activity logs may also record IP address information directly when needed for administration or abuse review.

The website uses or links to third-party services including Discord authentication, CurseForge, Modrinth, Ko-fi, Google AdSense, and other external providers or platforms. When you use those services, they may receive information according to their own policies and settings. We encourage you to review their privacy terms before using them.

We do not sell your personal data. We may share or disclose information only when reasonably necessary to operate the platform through service providers, process authentication, respond to abuse or security incidents, enforce our rules, protect users or the service, or comply with legal obligations.

We keep information for as long as it is reasonably necessary to operate the platform, maintain profile and community features, support creator pages and roadmap-related features, enforce moderation decisions, prevent abuse, analyze site activity, and satisfy operational or legal obligations. Some internal records, such as security logs, notifications, activity logs, or moderation records, may be retained longer than public content.

You can browse many public pages without signing in. If you sign in with Discord or use profile, community, follow, like, or publishing features, certain data is required for those features to work. You can also choose which optional profile details to publish, whether to display a public email address, and whether to enable certain profile visibility settings.

We may update this Privacy Policy as the platform changes. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date on this page. Continued use of the site after a policy update means the updated version applies from its effective date.

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or about how data is used on cookiecraftmods, please contact us through our official community channels.
