Privacy (Or What’s Left of It)

In this project, we take your privacy as seriously as we take memory leaks in the cub3d project: they scare us, but sometimes we ignore them until someone evaluates us.

1. What data do we collect?

Only what’s strictly necessary for this Frankenstein of a project to work:

  • Your Intra Login: So we know who to blame in the rankings.
  • Your Avatar: So we can see that pool picture you took two years ago.
  • Cookies: Not the edible ones (sadly), but the ones that keep your session alive so you don’t have to log in every time the NestJS server restarts itself.

2. What do we use your data for?

Mainly to keep the Transcendence system from collapsing. We use your info to:

  • Give you a nice-looking profile.
  • Send you chat notifications that you will probably ignore.
  • Make the matchmaking system try to pair you with someone, even if you end up playing against a bot because no one else is online at 4:00 AM.

3. Do we share your data?

Who would even want it? Neither Google nor Facebook care how many times you’ve lost at Pong against a teammate. We don’t sell your data, mainly because we don’t know how to set up a payment gateway without Docker exploding.

login: "Login", signUp: "SignUp",

4. Information Security

if (data.isSafe()) {
  console.log("Trust me bro");
} else {
  console.log("It's a feature, not a bug");
}

We implement security levels that would make a cybersecurity expert cry, but they are good enough to pass a peer evaluation. Your passwords (if you don’t use 42 OAuth) are hashed, because even we have standards.

5. Your Rights (Budget GDPR)

You have the right to:

  • Access: See what we store about you (Spoiler: not much).
  • Rectification: Change your name if you regret choosing "PongMaster99".
  • Deletion: Delete your account. This will remove your data from the database, but the trauma of losing to our final boss will remain forever.

6. Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to change this every time an evaluator tells us: "Hey, this is illegal". We’ll notify you with a chat message that will probably get lost in the scroll.

By using this site, you accept that the developer is a sleep-deprived student and that "absolute privacy" is a romantic concept, not a technical one.

If you’ve read this far, you clearly have too much free time. Go finish Inception.
