Privacy Policy

Overview

Theryn ("we", "us") operates theryn.org. This policy explains what information we collect when you use our website, how we use it, and your choices.

Information we collect

When you submit a contact or builder application form, we collect:

• Your name and email address
• Your message, subject, and any experience or plugin details you provide
• File attachments you choose to upload (images, videos, documents, or archives)
• Your network IP address, used only for abuse prevention

We do not require an account to browse the site or read public documentation in The Archive.

How we use your information

• To read and respond to your inquiry or builder application
• To send a confirmation email when you submit a builder application
• To prevent spam and abuse through rate limiting

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use form data for advertising profiles.

Third-party services

We use the following services to operate the website:

• Resend — delivers contact and application emails on our behalf
• Vercel — hosts the website and provides anonymous usage analytics
• Sentry — captures error reports to help us fix technical issues (when configured)

Each provider processes data according to its own privacy policy and only to the extent needed to provide the service.

Analytics

In production, we use Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights to understand page performance and general traffic patterns. These tools do not use cookies for cross-site tracking and collect aggregated, privacy-friendly metrics. Enable them in the Vercel project dashboard under Analytics after deploy.

The public /stats page displays aggregate in-game activity from our Minecraft server (such as player counts and playtime leaderboards). It does not expose IP addresses or session-level data on the public page.

Retention

Form submissions are retained in our email inbox for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry, evaluate builder applications, and maintain reasonable records.

Your choices

You may request access to or deletion of information you submitted by emailing us. You can also browse the site without submitting any personal data.
