Privacy Policy

Who we are

Ninjora ("we", "us", "the game") is the browser and desktop game hosted at ninjora.com and play.ninjora.com, along with the community forums at forums.ninjora.com. When you sign in, your account is managed through our forum system, and your character lives on our game server. Both run on servers we operate.

Account information

To play, you create a forum account. That account is what signs you into the game. Through the forum we hold:

• Your username.
• The email address you register with, used to confirm your account and to help you recover it.
• A password, which is stored in a hashed form so nobody can read it back.

The game server itself does not store your email or your password. It only receives a signed login token from the forum and reads your account id and username from it. From there the game creates your character.

Gameplay data

Once you make a character, the game saves your progress so it is there next time you log in. This is tied to your account id and includes:

Chat and private whispers are delivered live between players and are not saved on our server. A copy of your own recent chat may be kept by your browser on your own device so the chat window survives a refresh. That copy lives only on your computer and you can clear it by clearing your browser storage.

Logs

To keep the game running and to fix problems, our server writes technical logs. These can include:

• Your account id and username with the time you logged in and out.
• Error reports and diagnostic details when something goes wrong, such as a network drop or a crash.
• Your network address at the moment you connect, held only in memory for the current session to help us spot abuse. It is not written to our long term records and it is cleared when the server restarts.

Logs are used only to operate, debug, and protect the game. We do not use them to profile you or to build an advertising picture of you.

Analytics and tracking

We do not use Google Analytics or any third party analytics, advertising, or tracking service. There are no tracking pixels and no ad networks on our website or in the game.

The game and website save some settings in your browser, such as your controls, graphics and sound options, camera and interface layout, and a login helper that can remember your last username. These stay on your own device. Signing in uses a session cookie from our forum so the game knows it is you. None of this is shared with outside companies.

When something leaves our servers

If our community Discord bridge is switched on, messages you send in the public game chat may be shown in a linked Discord channel, and messages from that Discord channel may appear in game chat. This is a live relay of public chat only. If you do not want a message to reach Discord, do not send it in public chat while the bridge is active. We do not store Discord identities or Discord messages on our game server.

How long we keep it

• Account and character data is kept for as long as your account exists, so your progress is there when you return.
• Login records (account id, username, and times) are kept to help us run and secure the game.
• Diagnostic logs are kept only as long as they are useful for debugging and are cleared out over time.
• Session network addresses are held in memory only and are gone when the server restarts.

When you delete your character, we remove your character rows from the game database. Your forum account is separate and stays until you ask for it to be removed as well.

Your choices and how to request deletion

You can:

• Delete your character in the game, which removes your character and its progress from the game database.
• Ask us to delete your account entirely, including your forum account and the email tied to it.
• Ask for a copy of the account and gameplay data we hold about you, or ask us to correct it.

Children

Ninjora is not directed at young children. If you believe a child has given us personal information without a parent or guardian's consent, contact us and we will remove it.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle your data, we will update this page and change the date at the top. Continuing to play after a change means you accept the updated policy.
