We may use essential session cookies and similar technologies required for authentication, administration, security, and operation of the Service. Third-party services embedded within the Service may operate their own cookies or similar technologies under their own privacy policies.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including encryption of credentials at rest, restricted administrative access, and audit logging of changes. No system can be guaranteed perfectly secure; in the event of a personal data breach affecting your rights, we will notify you and the ICO as required by law.
Administrative actions, provisioning events, reconnection events, and security-related activities may be recorded in audit logs for operational and security purposes.
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes may be communicated through the Service, Twitch, Discord, EVE Online communications, email, or any other reasonable communication channel available to us.
The Service makes use of publicly available EVE Online corporation and character information. Information already publicly available through EVE Online, ESI, corporation recruitment tools, killboards, alliance services, or similar public sources does not become private simply because it is displayed through the Service.
The Service may aggregate, display, cache, archive, index, analyse, or republish publicly available EVE Online information where permitted by applicable EVE Online developer policies and terms.
