6. Your Data Protection Rights (GDPR)
As we operate from Czechia, you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). These rights include:
- The right to access – You have the right to request copies of your personal data.
- The right to rectification – You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete.

7. Children's Privacy
Our service is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 16 (or the relevant age in your country for consenting to the processing of personal data). We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us.
8. International Data Transfers
We are based in Czechia, but our servers are hosted in the United States, and we rely on third-party service providers (such as Discord for authentication). This means your information, including personal data, is transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States and other jurisdictions where data-protection laws may differ from those in your country. Where required, such transfers are made on the basis of appropriate safeguards; by using the Website you consent to this transfer.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting a message on our official Discord server. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
