Blastmud collects the following information that can be linked to individuals:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Whether or not you are over 18 years of age. This is used to ensure that
|
|
we do not allow you access to games which cannot be made available to you.
|
|
If you are under 18, the data is not retained. If you are over 18, this
|
|
information is retained indefinitely.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The IP address(es) you use to connect to Blastmud. These are used
|
|
to block access to Blastmud from countries where we are not confident it can be legally provided,
|
|
to check whether or not you are using an IP address that has been banned or restricted from the
|
|
service or part of it, and to apply rate limits to prevent abuse. In normal circumstances, IP
|
|
addresses are retained for up to 2 years, but if you are banned or restricted from the service,
|
|
they are retained until up to 2 years after the ban or restriction is lifted. Bans and restrictions
|
|
can be for an indefinite period, in which case the IP address will be retained indefinitely.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The IP address used to request an Over 18 certificate for running your own server.
|
|
This will form part of the certificate issued. We keep records of all certificates issued,
|
|
including the IP address, so that they can be revoked if they are leaked on the Internet.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The email address you provide. This is retained indefinitely as an identifier for your
|
|
account in case you contact us in the future. However, you may contact staff@blastmud.org
|
|
and request that we disable your account and delete this information.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The character name you choose for yourself. We recommend not making this something
|
|
linkable to your real identity, as it will be retained indefinitely and shown in-game to
|
|
identify you to other players.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The actions you take in game (for example, moving from room to room). These may be sent to
|
|
other users (including any administrators of the game) as part of game play, and may
|
|
also in some cases be logged and used to detect or investigate abuse / cheating.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Any free-form information you disclose while playing the game (for example, through in game
|
|
communication functionality). Depending on the type of communication, this could be shared
|
|
with other players and retained indefinitely. We recommend not posting any personally
|
|
identifiable information through these channels.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>
|

|
|
Information is collected, processed, and stored in Victoria, Australia. We also store an
|
|
encrypted backup in the United States (data is encrypted in Australia before transfer to
|
|
the US, and backups of the keys needed to decrypt the data are stored in Australia, and
|
|
not with the backups). Data is encrypted in transit, except where you choose to connect
|
|
over a telnet connection (in which case any information on that link is sent unencrypted).
|
|
Except where intentionally disclosed to other users as noted above, access to sensitive
|
|
data is restricted to authorised users. All service providers (Vultr and Cloudflare)
|
|
who have access to sensitive unencrypted data or to decryption keys have a privacy policy
|
|
that has been verified to be consistent with this privacy policy.

Blastmud is developed as a hobby (rather than a business) by an unincorporated
|
|
group of individuals collectively known as the Blast Havers. All privacy related enquiries or
|
|
complaints should be sent to <a href="mailto:staff@blastmud.org">staff@blastmud.org</a>.
