At OARC, we take your privacy seriously. We aim to collect as little personal data as possible and keep it only for as long as necessary. This policy applies to our main website and any affiliated projects or initiatives.

We only collect personal data when it's essential—for example:

Contact information (like name or email) if you contact us or sign up for a service.

Technical data (like IP addresses or browser type) for security or basic analytics.

We collect data only to:

Operate our websites or projects safely.

Communicate with participants when needed.

Fulfill any legal or regulatory obligations (e.g., licensing-related matters).

We delete or anonymize personal data as soon as it's no longer needed for its original purpose. This could be immediately, or after a short period (like project completion or inactivity).

We don’t sell your personal data. We don't share your personal data unless:

It’s required by law.

It’s necessary to operate a service (e.g., a trusted hosting provider under contract).

Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

Access your data.

Correct inaccuracies.

Ask us to delete your data.

Object to or restrict how we use your data.

To exercise your rights, contact the community leads via the Discord server.

Some projects or initiatives may collect slightly different data, but always follow the same principles of:

Minimal data collection.

No unnecessary retention.

Clear purpose for all data use.

Each project will provide any necessary additional information when relevant.
