Privacy & Cookie Policy
FakeBalance service
1. General information & contact
- This Privacy Policy sets out how information about users of the FakeBalance service is processed.
- The FakeBalance Administration is responsible for the operation of the site and the management of accounts.
- For matters related to the site, login problems, key resets or account deletion, you can contact us via:
- Official Discord server: discord.com/invite/fakebalance
- E-mail: [email protected]
2. What data we collect and why
We do not collect your private data (such as first name, surname, phone number or home address). The service limits data collection to the minimum needed to maintain a player account:
- Standard login: We process your nickname and your Discord handle solely to create a player profile, generate a login key and attach your virtual progress in the simulator to it.
- Login via Discord (OAuth2): If you choose this option, the system reads your public Discord identifier (ID, avatar, nickname) securely provided by Discord for verification. We do not have access to your Discord password or private messages.
- Login key: The generated key is stored in a form unreadable to the Administration (it is securely hashed).
- IP address: At registration we record the IP address the account was created from. We use it solely for security and abuse prevention — e.g. to limit the number of accounts created from one network. We do not share the IP address with external reputation or analytics services.
3. Legal basis & retention
- Information is processed on the basis of your consent (given through voluntary registration) in order to provide a free entertainment service (running an account in the simulator).
- Data is kept for the duration of the account's activity. You may request deletion of your data and account at any time by writing to our e-mail or contacting us on Discord.
4. Data security
- We make every effort to protect the database against unauthorised access.
- Because the Administration does not know your login key, if you lose it the only way to regain access is the key-reset procedure by contacting the Administration (for verification we may ask you to message us from the Discord account given at registration).
5. User rights
Every user has the right to view their virtual data, correct it and request complete deletion of the account from the service's database.
6. Cookies & technical data
- The service may use cookies or similar browser technologies (e.g. Local Storage).
- They are used solely for technical purposes — e.g. to keep a logged-in user's session, ensure the login system works correctly, and remember basic site settings (such as the chosen theme).
- The service does not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.
- You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time, but this may prevent you from logging in correctly.
7. Third-party services
For technical and security reasons the service uses external providers that may process the IP address and basic technical browser data:
- Cloudflare, Inc. — CDN and attack-protection provider; it relays network traffic between your browser and the service.
- Cloudflare Turnstile — a verification (captcha) mechanism protecting registration and login from bots.
These providers do not use this data for advertising or profiling on behalf of the service.
