Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 6, 2026

1. Overview

BPSR Tools is a community project, not a registered business or incorporated entity. This privacy policy explains what data the Service collects, how it is used, and your options regarding that data. References to "we", "us", or "our" refer to the maintainers of BPSR Tools.

2. Data We Collect

2.1 Data Stored Locally (On Your Device)

The desktop application stores the following data on your computer:

  • Encounter history and combat statistics (SQLite database)
  • Player profiles encountered in-game
  • Application settings and preferences
  • Equipment module data
  • Authentication token
  • Application logs

2.2 Data Automatically Transmitted to Our Servers

By using the Service, the following data is automatically synced to our servers as part of normal operation. These transmissions happen in the background without requiring manual action:

  • Account registration: When your in-game character is first detected, an authentication token is automatically generated and registered with our servers along with your in-game UID and character name
  • Encounter submissions: When a battle ends, encounter data (damage, healing, skill usage, player identifiers) is automatically submitted to our servers
  • Real-time raid broadcast: While you are in an active encounter, your combat data is continuously broadcast in real-time to our servers and visible to spectators
  • Player profiles: Player information (UID, name, class, gear score, level) for you and other players in your encounters is periodically synced to our servers
  • Character profile: Your skill levels, equipment details, and module data are automatically sent when received from the game
  • Party sync: When you are in a party, roster information (UID, name, class, gear score, group assignments) and party events (joins, leaves, leadership changes) are continuously synced
  • Settings sync: Your application preferences are automatically synced to the cloud for backup and cross-device consistency. Binary data such as profile images are kept local only

All cloud transmissions are best-effort and non-blocking — if a sync fails due to network issues, the application continues to function normally.

2.3 No Game Interaction

BPSR Tools is entirely passive and read-only. It observes game network data but never sends packets to the game, modifies game files, injects code, or manipulates game data in any way.

2.4 Data We Do Not Collect

  • We do not use cookies or browser tracking
  • We do not use analytics services (no Google Analytics, etc.)
  • We do not collect personal information such as email addresses, real names, or IP addresses for tracking purposes
  • We do not monitor your browsing activity

3. How Your Data Is Used

  • To display leaderboards and player rankings on the website
  • To enable real-time raid spectating
  • To provide world boss tracking across players
  • To facilitate party finding and lobby features
  • To generate aggregated statistics and rankings

4. Purchases

If you make optional purchases (cosmetic or personalization items), we may process payment information through third-party payment providers. We do not store credit card numbers or full payment details on our servers. Payment providers have their own privacy policies governing how they handle your payment data.

5. Advertising

The Service does not currently display advertisements. If advertising is introduced in the future, we will not sell or share your personal data with advertisers. Any advertising partners and their data practices will be disclosed in an updated version of this policy.

6. Publicly Visible Data

Certain data you contribute becomes publicly visible:

  • Leaderboards: Your in-game name, class, gear score, and best performance metrics are displayed publicly when encounters are submitted
  • Spectate: When you are in an active raid, your real-time combat data (name, class, damage, healing, skills) is visible to anyone using the spectate feature
  • Player rankings: Your overall ranking information is visible on the website

7. Authentication

The Service uses a token-based authentication system. On first use, the application generates a random authentication token linked to your in-game character. There are no passwords, email addresses, or traditional accounts. You can rotate your token at any time to invalidate previous sessions.

8. Data Storage and Security

Cloud data is stored on Cloudflare's infrastructure. Data in transit is encrypted via HTTPS/WSS. Local data is stored unencrypted in your application data directory. We take reasonable measures to protect data on our servers, but as a community project, we cannot guarantee the same level of security as a commercial service.

9. Third-Party Services

The Service relies on the following third-party services:

  • Cloudflare: Hosts our backend API, database, and real-time services. Subject to Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.
  • Npcap: A third-party packet capture library installed locally on your device. It does not transmit data externally.

The optional translation overlay uses locally downloaded machine learning models. All translation processing happens entirely on your device with no data sent externally.

10. Data Retention

  • Submitted encounters and leaderboard data are retained indefinitely
  • Real-time session data (raids, parties, boss tracking) is temporary and cleared when sessions end
  • Local data persists until you delete the application or its data directory

11. Data Deletion

You can delete your local data at any time by removing the BPSR Tools application data folder or using the in-app data management features. To request deletion of cloud-stored data (submitted encounters, leaderboard entries), please contact us through our community channels.

12. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided data through the Service, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

13. Website Local Storage

The website uses browser local storage solely for user interface preferences such as language selection and display settings. No tracking or analytics data is stored.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

15. Contact

If you have questions about this privacy policy or want to request data deletion, you can reach us through the BPSR Tools community channels or by opening an issue on our project repository.
