Element Zero ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of our community members. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, how it is stored, and your rights regarding that data.
This policy applies to data collected through our Discord server, the ZeroCore bot, and our website at elementzeroclan.com.
We do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes — ever.
The following table outlines what data ZeroCore collects and why:
| Data Type | Why It's Collected | Where It's Stored |
|---|---|---|
| Discord User ID | Identifies you across bot features (stats, warnings, honor, etc.) | JSON files on our server |
| Discord Username | Displayed in leaderboards and bot responses | JSON files on our server |
| Linked Valorant account | Used to fetch and display your Valorant stats via HenrikDev API | JSON files on our server |
| Linked Fortnite account | Used to fetch and display your Fortnite stats via Fortnite-API.com | JSON files on our server |
| Linked Steam account | Used to fetch Steam activity and hours via Steam Web API | JSON files on our server |
| Game statistics | K/D, wins, rank data fetched from external APIs and cached | JSON files on our server |
| Moderation records | Warnings, strikes, and logs of mutes, kicks, and bans issued by staff are kept for accountability and server safety | JSON files on our server |
| Server stats (aggregate) | Total member count, online count — displayed on our website. No individual data. | JSON files on our server |
We do not collect passwords, email addresses, or payment information. We do not use your IP address to identify or track you, though our web server may briefly log it as part of normal operation and security (for example, in standard server access logs).
Data collected by ZeroCore is used solely to operate bot features within the Element Zero Discord server. Specifically:
ZeroCore uses the following third-party APIs to fetch game data. When you link a game account, your in-game username is sent to these services:
These services have their own privacy policies. Element Zero is not responsible for how they handle data. We only send the minimum information required (such as your in-game username) to retrieve your stats.
Our Partners page displays publicly available information about Discord communities we are allied with — such as their server name, icon, and approximate member and online counts. This information is retrieved from Discord's public API using an invite link the partner has provided to us, and is only listed with that partner's agreement. This feature does not involve any data about you, the visitor.
We do not use tracking, analytics, or advertising cookies. The only cookie we set is an essential session cookie created when you sign in to link an account on our website. It exists solely to keep you signed in during that process and is not used to track you across the web.
Some pages load resources directly from third parties, which means those providers may see your IP address as a normal part of serving the request:
We do not sell or share your personal data with any of these providers beyond what is technically required to load the resource. Each has its own privacy policy.
All data is stored on our Oracle Cloud server located in Sydney, Australia. Data is stored in local JSON files on the server and is not shared with any external databases or cloud storage providers.
We take reasonable steps to secure our server, including SSH key-only access, firewall rules, and regular monitoring. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your data is retained for as long as you are a member of the Element Zero Discord server. If you leave the server:
You may request earlier deletion of your data at any time (see Section 7).
You have the following rights regarding your data:
/mydata in our Discord server/forgetme in our Discord server, which removes your linked accounts, cached stats, and activity data and takes you off the public leaderboards. Moderation records are retained for safety. If you have already left the server, contact staff and we will run the deletion for you./val unlink, /fn unlink, or equivalent commandsTo exercise any of these rights, contact us via our Discord server using the ticket system (/ticket) or by contacting a staff member directly.
To join the Element Zero Discord server, you must meet the minimum age required by Discord in your country or region. To join the clan itself, you must be at least 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone who does not meet these requirements. If you believe an underage user has provided us with data, please contact staff immediately and we will remove it promptly.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be announced in our Discord server. Continued use of our services after updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
For any privacy-related questions or requests, please contact us via our Discord server using /ticket or by messaging a staff member directly.
