Privacy

Updated 14 September 2026.

Browsing and sign-in

Public browsing needs no account and uses no analytics. Project owners can sign in with Discord. We use the Discord user ID to check ownership, a short-lived cookie for the sign-in request, and an HttpOnly session cookie after sign-in.

Firestore stores the session expiry and optional Discord display name/avatar reference used in management. Sessions last up to 14 days. Successful sign-out deletes the session record. Expired sessions are rejected; physical deletion of expired records depends on the configured cleanup process. Discord OAuth tokens are used to establish identity and are not retained.

What creator tools store

Firestore stores Project details, external release records, roadmap items, creator-reported genres and AI-use labels, tool/guide connections, gallery and development-message selections, Game Wiki drafts and published copies, and private launch checklist answers and notes. These records let you manage one game through its fixed Discord thread. The server checks the current Project owner before allowing access to the private tools.

Gallery and Discord update choices store source references and your titles, descriptions or captions. A saved selection is not a copy of the whole Discord conversation. The Bot checks eligible sources before preparing public images or short excerpts. It does not fetch draft update messages or copy other members' feedback into your selected updates.

Private drafts and public content

Launch checklist answers and notes stay private. They are not included in public pages, site exports or search. Release, roadmap, gallery and update items have separate draft/public choices. Do not store passwords, API keys or players' personal details in these tools.

Game Wiki pages have a saved draft and a separate published copy. Saving a later draft does not replace the public copy. Only the published copy can enter public pages and search, and only while the Project meets its publication checks.

Public Project content needs your publication request, the moderator-controlled Publish to site approval and a successful export and site refresh. Editing ordinary Project details on an already-public Project can change its next public snapshot. Saving a private item is not permission to publish it. A creator-selected Discord excerpt is not guaranteed to be free of sensitive information; choose messages carefully.

Discovery labels and resource links have explicit private/public choices. Public links can also appear on the connected tool or guide page. Directory search and filters run in your browser and use the page URL; they do not add analytics, cookies or a tracking profile.

Changing or removing content

Owner unpublish hides the Project page but can leave a separately approved Showcase listing. A moderator removing Publish to site approval withholds both. Neither action deletes the Discord thread or saved Project history.

Use the relevant editor to remove a selection or release, clear a launch checklist, or take a Wiki page off the site. Taking a Wiki page off the site keeps its draft; deleting the page removes both saved copies. Clearing a checklist removes its answers and notes but keeps a small revision record so an old browser tab cannot recreate them. Removing an external release does not automatically clear a checklist previously attached to it.

Public pages are static snapshots. Exports are scheduled every six hours and need a successful rebuild; failures can delay changes. Removal is not instant and does not delete copies already saved by visitors or another service. Contact the moderators through the community page for urgent removal or a request about your stored data. There is no single account-wide delete button yet.

Optional Discord recap

The connected Discord bot's optional daily recap sends selected channel messages to Anthropic. Moderators choose approved sources; an empty source list uses the digest channel. The bot checks that each source is a non-NSFW text or announcement channel in this server, with public view and message-history permissions. It skips restricted channels and permission-check failures. Avoid posting sensitive information in recap channels. We do not control Anthropic's retention.

Hosted games and future changes

Browser-game ZIP uploads and AIGAMEDEV-hosted game execution are not enabled. External Play links take you to another service, which has its own privacy practices. Any new analytics or data collection must be described here before release.
