Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Minimap Mod ("we", "us" or "our") collects, uses, shares and protects information when you visit minimapmod.com (the "Website"). We respect your privacy and collect only what we need to run the Website, answer your messages and improve our content. By using the Website you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information We Collect
We collect two types of information:
- Information you give us: your name, email address and message when you use the contact form, and your email address when you subscribe to our newsletter or request the cheat sheet.
- Information collected automatically: technical data such as your browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location (country or city level) and the date and time of your visit. This data is collected through server logs and, where enabled, privacy-friendly analytics.
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data, payment details or government identification numbers.
How We Use Your Information
- To respond to your questions, support requests and feedback.
- To send newsletters and resources you have asked for.
- To understand which guides are useful so we can improve them.
- To keep the Website secure and prevent spam, abuse and fraud.
- To comply with legal obligations.
We never sell, rent or trade your personal information.
Cookies and Local Storage
The Website uses a minimal amount of browser storage. For example, we remember for the current session that you closed the newsletter pop-up so it does not appear again. Analytics tools, if enabled, may set cookies to count visits anonymously. Full details are in our Cookie Policy.
Third-Party Services
Some features rely on trusted third parties, each with its own privacy policy:
- Download platforms: our download buttons open Modrinth and CurseForge. Once you leave our Website, their policies apply.
- Google Maps: the contact page embeds a map that may collect usage data.
- Google Fonts: fonts are loaded from Google's servers.
- Email and form providers: used to deliver messages and newsletters.
- Hosting providers: keep standard server logs for security.
Data Retention
We keep personal data only as long as needed. Contact messages are kept for up to 12 months, newsletter data until you unsubscribe, and server logs for up to 90 days unless required longer for security investigations.
Data Security
We use HTTPS encryption, reputable service providers and limited access controls to protect your data. No online service can guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized access, loss or misuse.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal data, to object to or restrict its processing and to withdraw consent at any time. You can unsubscribe from emails using the link in every message. Visitors in the EEA and UK should also read our GDPR Policy. California residents may request information about the categories of data we collect; we do not sell personal information.
Children's Privacy
Minecraft is enjoyed by players of all ages, but our forms and newsletter are not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
International Transfers
Our service providers may process data in countries other than your own, including the United States. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes are posted on this page with a new "last updated" date. Significant changes will be highlighted on the Website.
