Privacy Notice
Skibattlez processes account, session, upload, moderation and technical security data needed to operate and protect the platform.
Voting and anti-abuse
Public voting does not require an account. To limit duplicate or manipulated votes, Skibattlez uses technical anti-abuse identifiers.
When a vote is made, an IP address may be processed temporarily to create a keyed one-way identifier. The ballot system stores the derived value rather than the raw IP address.
Voting may also use a random browser token and a derived browser / user-agent identifier. These values help detect repeated voting from the same account, browser or network.
Skibattlez currently limits voting to one ballot per account, browser or IP identifier for the same battle. People sharing the same home, workplace, school, mobile gateway or other shared network may therefore be unable to cast separate votes from that network.
Voting browser token
Guest voting can place an essential anti-abuse browser token named skibattlez.vote. The token contains a random value rather than a username or email address and may remain in the browser for up to one year unless it is removed earlier.
Accounts and uploads
Registered accounts may require information such as username, email address, password credentials, session information and role information.
Upload and moderation records may include battle submissions, rights confirmations, moderation decisions and related platform activity.
Retention and publication
Voting and security records are used to operate, verify and protect battle results and to investigate abuse or security issues. A specific deletion schedule has not yet been finalized during this beta.
Technical voting identifiers are not shown publicly as part of battle results.
Skibattlez is currently in beta. This privacy notice and retention policy may be refined before a broader public launch.
