Warship Development ("we", "us", "our", "WDEV", "Warship Dev") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when interacting with our website, Discord server, and products (“Services”).

We only collect information we actually need to make our products work properly and keep licenses secure. ---

1. Information We Collect

Information You Provide to Us

We may collect certain information when you interact with us directly:

• Discord Verification: Discord User ID, BuiltByBit username, and BuiltByBit User ID - required to verify your purchase and issue your license key.
• Support Requests: Any info you provide when contacting us (e.g. Discord ID, email address, error messages, etc.)

Website Connection Logs

When a browser, plugin, bot, webhook, or another client connects to our website, we record basic technical request data for security, abuse prevention, and diagnostics. This can include the timestamp, request ID, method, requested path, source IP address supplied by our network proxy, host, protocol, browser or user-agent, referrer origin, content type, and the names of query fields. We do not store request bodies, query values, cookies, authorization headers, OAuth codes, license keys, passwords, tokens, or webhook signatures in connection logs.

Information We Do NOT Collect

• We do not store or process payment details.
• We do not collect your real name, address, or other sensitive personal data.

Automatic License Verification (When Using Our Services)

Whenever a plugin using our license system is enabled on a server, it will automatically send a verification request to our server. This request includes:

• The IP address of the requester
• The license key assigned to your purchase

Only a very limited number of authorized core team members at WDEV have access to verification and license-related data.<br>These team members are bound to keep the information secure and confidential. This data is never provided, sold, or shared with unauthorized individuals - under any circumstances - unless legally required by authorities.

All payments are handled by BuiltByBit - their privacy policy applies for all transaction data. ---

2. Download Logs (For Free Products)

If a product is free and downloaded through our website, we may log the download for analytics and security purposes. This logging does not include personal information, only basic technical data (like timestamps or server ID where applicable). ---

3. How We Use Your Information

We use collected data only for:

• License validation - ensuring only legitimate users access our products.
• Support - solving technical issues and answering questions.
• Service improvements - using non-identifiable, aggregated analytics.
• To verify license usage: Automatic checks ensure that plugins are being used only on authorized servers and within license rules.

4. Information Sharing

We may share necessary information with trusted third-party services:

No other data sharing occurs unless required by law. ---

5. Data Security

Your license information and related data are stored securely. We take reasonable technical measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, misuse, or leaks. ---

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the legal right to:

• Request access to your data
• Request correction or deletion of stored data
• Request clarification on how your data is used

7. External Links

Our Services may contain links to other platforms (Discord, BuiltByBit, etc.). We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of those platforms. ---

8. Changes to This Policy

We may change this Privacy Policy at any time. Updates will be posted here, and continuing to use our Services means you accept the updated policy. ---

9. Data Retention

Verification logs (server IP and license key) may be temporarily stored to prevent fraud, detect license misuse, and ensure correct access to Services. Logs are periodically removed when no longer required for these purposes. ---
