Privacy Policy

This policy applies to mctrainer.club, the MCTrainer Minecraft network and related features such as player profiles, leaderboards, match replays and Discord account linking.

Privacy questions and requests can be sent to contact@mctrainer.club.

Depending on the features you use, this may include:

• Minecraft UUID, current and previous usernames and player skin.
• IP addresses, connection times, server history, playtime and login activity.
• Training scores, performance measurements, match results, ratings, rankings and FFA statistics.
• Player settings, friends, cosmetics, kits, replay favorites and virtual currency activity.
• Reports, moderation actions, anti-cheat alerts and related security information.
• Technical website logs such as IP address, requested page, browser information, timestamp and error information.

Some PvP and bot matches are recorded so players can watch replays and receive performance analysis.

A replay may contain player names and UUIDs, position, movement, viewing direction, ping, health, equipment, inventory changes, block changes and combat actions.

Chat messages visible to a replay participant may also be included in the recording. This can include messages sent by players who were not participating in the match.

PvP replays are normally retained for up to 90 days. Bot replays are normally retained for up to 14 days. Favorited, protected or moderation-related replays may be retained longer.

Chat and private messages pass through MCTrainer systems so they can be delivered and checked for abuse. MCTrainer does not maintain a general private-message archive, but message content may appear in reports, moderation records or recorded matches.

When you link a Discord account, we store your Discord user ID, Discord username, Minecraft UUID and the linking date. Temporary linking requests expire automatically. You can unlink your account through the Minecraft server.

Reports and moderation records may contain player and staff identifiers, reasons, evidence, internal notes, timestamps and actions such as warnings, mutes, kicks or bans.

Selected information may be displayed publicly on the website, leaderboards or Minecraft network, including:

• Minecraft username, skin and UUID.
• Rankings, ratings and gameplay statistics.
• Match results, opponents and replay information.
• Selected activity and training information.

IP addresses, Discord identifiers, private messages and internal moderation notes are not intended to be displayed publicly.

MCTrainer uses a self-hosted Umami installation to understand how the website is used. Umami may process page URLs, referrers, browser, operating system, device type, language and approximate location.

Standard Umami analytics do not use tracking cookies or follow visitors across unrelated websites. An IP address may be used temporarily to create an anonymous session identifier and estimate location, but is not intended to be stored in the analytics database.

MCTrainer may use cookies, local storage or similar browser technologies when they are needed for website functionality, security, preferences or account-related features.

MCTrainer's standard self-hosted Umami analytics do not require tracking cookies. Advertising cookies and similar technologies are separate from those analytics and are described in the advertising section below.

Where consent is legally required, optional advertising cookies or similar technologies are not intended to be used until the required choice has been collected through the applicable consent message.

MCTrainer may use Google AdSense to display advertising after advertising services have been enabled for the website.

Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on a user's previous visits to mctrainer.club or other websites. Google's advertising cookies allow Google and its partners to select and serve ads, including personalized ads where permitted.

Advertising providers may process information such as cookies, device or browser identifiers, IP addresses, browser information and interactions with advertisements. This information may be used to select and deliver ads, prevent fraud, limit how often an ad is shown and measure advertising performance.

For users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, MCTrainer has configured Google's European regulations consent message for use when advertising services are active. The message provides choices relating to advertising purposes and the use of personal data. Personalized advertising is only intended to be used where permitted and, when required, after consent.

You can manage Google's personalized advertising settings through My Ad Center.

More information about how Google processes information for advertising is available in the Google Privacy Policy and Google's advertising technologies information.

We process information to:

• Operate and secure the website and Minecraft network.
• Maintain player profiles, settings and social features.
• Provide matchmaking, statistics and leaderboards.
• Create match replays and performance analysis.
• Detect cheating, spam, abuse and security incidents.
• Respond to reports and support requests.
• Understand website usage.
• Display and measure advertising when advertising services are enabled.

Information may be processed using hosting, database, analytics, email, advertising and authentication providers. This includes services related to MongoDB, Redis, Google, Discord and Mojang/Microsoft where applicable.

Some providers may process information in countries other than the country where you live. Where required, data transfers are handled using the safeguards provided by the relevant service provider and applicable data-protection rules.

Information is retained for as long as reasonably necessary to provide and protect the service. Some profile, statistics, security, transaction and moderation information may be kept longer than ordinary gameplay data.

Information may also remain temporarily in backups or caches after deletion. Security records may be retained when necessary to enforce restrictions, prevent abuse or comply with legal obligations.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights relating to personal information associated with you, including rights to request access, correction or deletion and, in some cases, to object to or restrict certain processing.

Where processing depends on consent, you may also have the right to withdraw that consent for future processing. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawful before the withdrawal.

To submit a privacy request, contact contact@mctrainer.club. We may ask you to verify control of the relevant Minecraft or Discord account before completing a request.

Depending on your location, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the data-protection supervisory authority responsible for you.

MCTrainer is not intended for children under 13. A parent or guardian who believes that a child under 13 has provided personal information can contact us to request its review or removal.

This policy may be updated when MCTrainer features, providers, advertising configuration or privacy practices change. The latest version will always be published on this page.
