Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how SailorPieceValues.com ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website. By using SailorPieceValues.com, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Who We Are (Data Controller)

SailorPieceValues.com is operated as part of an independent value-list network. For any privacy-related questions, data requests, or to exercise your rights under this policy, contact us at contact@sailorpiecevalues.com.

2. Information We Collect

• Account data (if you log in via Discord): Discord ID, username, and avatar URL provided by Discord OAuth.
• Usage data: Pages visited, items viewed, votes cast, and time spent on the site (used for the XP/points system, content rankings, and analytics).
• Technical data: IP address (for rate limiting and security), browser type, device type, operating system, referring URL, and approximate location (country level).
• Cookies and local storage: Session cookies (essential), and analytics/advertising cookies set with your consent (see Section 5).

3. How We Use Your Information

• To operate the website and provide features (item search, trade calculator, voting, XP system, leaderboard).
• To authenticate users via Discord OAuth.
• To display personalized or non-personalized advertising via Google AdSense (based on your consent — see Section 4).
• To analyze traffic patterns and improve the site via Google Analytics (with consent).
• To prevent abuse, spam, vote manipulation, and to comply with legal obligations.

4. Third-Party Services & Advertising

We use the following third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy and data practices:

• Google AdSense: We use Google AdSense to serve advertising. Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites on the internet. Where required by law, ads are personalized only with your consent; otherwise, you will see non-personalized contextual ads. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. For more information about how Google uses data from sites that use its services, see Google's Partner Sites privacy policy.
• Google Analytics: Used to measure traffic and understand how visitors use the site. Google Analytics may set cookies with names beginning _ga, _gid, or _gat. We use Google Consent Mode v2 — when consent is denied, Google Analytics receives only anonymous, cookieless pings used for aggregate measurement. See Google's Privacy Policy.
• Discord OAuth: Used for account authentication. We only access basic profile information (ID, username, avatar). We never see your email, password, or messages. See Discord's Privacy Policy.
• CookieYes: Used to manage your cookie consent preferences. CookieYes stores your consent choices in your browser. See CookieYes Privacy Policy.

5. Cookies & Consent

We use the following categories of cookies:

• Strictly necessary: Session cookies required for the site to function (login, CSRF protection). Always active — these cannot be disabled.
• Analytics: Set by Google Analytics to measure traffic. Loaded only with your consent (or in cookieless mode where consent is denied).
• Advertising: Set by Google AdSense and its advertising partners (including DoubleClick / DART cookies) to serve personalized ads. Loaded only with your consent.

If you are visiting from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, our cookie banner asks for your consent before any non-essential cookies are set. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the cookie settings icon in the bottom corner of the page. Visitors from other regions are presumed to consent to standard cookie use unless they opt out via their browser or Google Ads Settings.

6. Children's Privacy (COPPA)

SailorPieceValues.com is a fan resource for the Roblox game Sailor Piece. We understand that Roblox is played by users of all ages, including children under 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The site does not require an account to view content — Discord login is optional and Discord itself requires users to be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age in their country). Children under 13 should not log in or provide any personal information.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verifiable parental consent, we will delete that information promptly. Parents who believe their child has provided personal information may contact us at contact@sailorpiecevalues.com to request deletion.

For visitors from California, no information is knowingly collected or sold from users under 16 in compliance with the CCPA.

7. Data Retention

• Account data: Retained for as long as your account is active. You can delete your account at any time from your profile page, which permanently removes all associated data within 30 days.
• Usage and analytics data: Aggregated and anonymized data may be retained indefinitely. Identifiable data is retained for up to 14 months in line with Google Analytics defaults.
• Server logs: Retained for up to 30 days for security and abuse prevention.

8. Your Rights (GDPR / UK GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right of access — request a copy of the data we hold about you
• Right to rectification — correct inaccurate or incomplete data
• Right to erasure — request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten")
• Right to restrict processing — limit how we use your data
• Right to data portability — receive your data in a machine-readable format
• Right to object — object to processing based on legitimate interests
• Right to withdraw consent — withdraw cookie consent at any time via the cookie settings icon
• Right to lodge a complaint — with your local data protection authority

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at contact@sailorpiecevalues.com. We will respond within 30 days.

9. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

• Consent — for analytics, advertising, and non-essential cookies
• Legitimate interests — for security, abuse prevention, and aggregate site improvement
• Contract — to provide account features when you create a Discord-linked account
• Legal obligation — where required to comply with the law

10. International Data Transfers

Some of our service providers (Google, Discord, CookieYes) are based outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Where data is transferred outside the EEA, those providers participate in approved transfer mechanisms (Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework) to ensure adequate protection.

11. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including HTTPS encryption, secure session management, CSRF protection, and access controls. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

12. Third-Party Links

Our site contains links to third-party websites including Roblox, Discord, and other gaming resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these sites. We encourage you to read their privacy policies.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of SailorPieceValues.com after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

14. Disclaimer

SailorPieceValues.com is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Roblox Corporation or the developers of Sailor Piece. Roblox and Sailor Piece are trademarks of their respective owners.
