Privacy Policy
Effective October 23, 2026
LFG Atlas tries to collect as little as possible. Here's what we collect and why.
No accounts, no tracking cookies
There's no sign-in. We don't use advertising trackers or tracking cookies. Your browser's local storage remembers posts you made (so you can delete them) and posts you reported; this never leaves your device except when you use those buttons.
What we collect
- Things you post: group, server and clan posts (game details, title, description and the contact you choose). These are public on the site until they expire or you delete them.
- Emails you give us: if you left an email for our alerts launch heads-up (no longer collected) or use "Request a game", we use it only to send what you asked for or to reply to you. Ask us any time to remove it.
- Basic analytics: our own simple analytics count page views and clicks (page, referring site). We store a hashed (scrambled) version of your IP address only to limit spam and abuse; we don't store your raw IP for analytics.
- Vouches: if you tap "👍 Good teammate", we store which player you vouched for, plus a hashed (scrambled) version of a random ID your browser makes and of your IP address, only to stop duplicate or fake vouches. We never store the raw ID or IP with it.
- "I'm in" taps: if you tap "👋 I'm in" on a post, the poster sees the Discord username or in-game name and note you enter. We also store hashed (scrambled) versions of a random browser ID and your IP address to stop spam. They're deleted about a week after the post ends.
- Browser alerts: if you turn on alerts for your post, we store your browser's push address (a link from your browser's push service, e.g. Google or Apple, with no name or email) just to send that post's alerts. It's deleted when the post ends.
- Payments: Stripe handles all card details. We never see or store your full card number. Stripe shares things like your email, amount paid and date with us. See Stripe's privacy policy.
Discord bot
The LFG Atlas Discord bot only receives what Discord sends when someone uses one of its commands (/lfg, /lfg-find, or "Post to LFG Atlas" on your own message). It never reads other messages and doesn't request message-content access. When you post with it, we store the post you typed plus your Discord username (or the invite you gave) as the public contact, the same as a post made on the website, and it is deleted when the post expires or you delete it. We don't store your Discord user ID, servers or messages, and we never sell or share this data.
Discord channel feeds
If a server admin connects a channel feed (with /lfg-setup or on /discord/feed/), we store the server ID, channel ID, webhook ID, the chosen games, a private stop link, counters (posts sent, last sent) and the webhook's secret part encrypted, so it can't be read from our database. Feeds only send public LFG Atlas posts. We delete the feed when it's stopped, and we turn it off automatically if the webhook is deleted in Discord. We never read anything from the channel.
Apps, bots and AI assistants
Live posts are also available through our free public API, RSS feeds and AI-assistant (MCP) connector, showing the same public post details as the website. Apps and AI assistants can post for a player only when that player asks them to, using the player's own contact; those posts are public like any other and are marked with the app's name. To limit spam, our server keeps short-lived counters keyed by a hashed (scrambled) version of the requesting IP address; they expire within 24 hours. See Developers & AI.
Where it's stored
Posts, form submissions and analytics are stored with our database provider (Supabase). The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages, which may process basic request data to serve and protect the site. If a post uses a Discord invite, your browser may contact Discord when you click Join.
Sharing
We don't sell your personal information. We only share it with the service providers above to run the site, or if the law requires it.
Keeping and deleting
Posts expire automatically (30 minutes to 7 days) and can be deleted any time with your private delete link. Want something removed, or your email deleted? Email gattlingheads@outlook.com and we'll do it.
Kids
The site isn't aimed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their personal information.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy; the effective date above will change when we do. Questions? Email gattlingheads@outlook.com.
