Privacy Policy
Last updated:
Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what personal data The Trading Post collects, why we collect it, how we use it, and your rights regarding that data.
Who we are
The Trading Post is a community Minecraft server operated as a hobby project. Our website is located at https://thetradingpost.info.
What data we collect
When you submit a testimonial through our website, we collect your in-game player name and the message text you provide. We do not collect your email address, IP address, or any other identifying information through the testimonial form.
Our web server may automatically log standard access data (IP address, browser type, pages visited) for security and diagnostic purposes. This data is not shared with third parties and is not used to identify individual users.
How we use your data
Testimonial submissions are reviewed by a server administrator before being published on the homepage. Your player name and message may be displayed publicly on this website if your testimonial is approved.
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with any third parties for marketing purposes.
Data storage and retention
Testimonial data is stored in a secure database hosted on our server infrastructure. We retain testimonial data for as long as the website is operational. Unapproved testimonials may be deleted at any time at the administrator's discretion.
Your rights
You have the right to request removal of any testimonial you submitted. To do so, contact us via our Discord server and provide your player name and the content of your submission. We will remove it within a reasonable timeframe.
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you may have additional rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access, rectify, or erase your personal data.
