Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Kitty Kingdom collects and uses information for the website, account system, Discord linking, moderation, and member features.

Information we collect

We may store your email address, username, password hash, email verification status, policy acceptance timestamp, session cookies, linked Discord account information, staff/member profile details, and feature activity needed for the site.

How information is used

Information is used to create and secure accounts, verify email addresses, support login, link Discord identities, operate member features, moderate the community, prevent abuse, and improve Kitty Kingdom.

Discord data

When Discord linking or public staff display features are used, Kitty Kingdom may request Discord profile details such as user ID, avatar, username, guild membership, or online invite counts through Discord APIs.

Cookies and sessions

We use secure session cookies to keep users logged in and protect account routes. You can clear cookies in your browser to end a session.

Data sharing

We do not sell personal data. Information may be shared with service providers that operate the website, database, email delivery, hosting, or Discord integrations, and when required for safety, moderation, or legal compliance.

Retention and deletion

Account and moderation records may be retained while your account exists or while needed for safety, abuse prevention, or community operations. Contact staff if you need account assistance.

Security

Passwords are stored as hashes, and sensitive configuration is stored in environment variables. No online system is perfect, so members should use strong unique passwords.
