What this site records and why

This site is run by the Alliance. It has no advertising and no other company's script on its pages, and nothing it records is sold or shared. Last updated 16 October 2026.

Counting visits

Visits are counted with Umami, an open-source tool run alongside this site at umami-production-8e70.up.railway.app, so no analytics company receives anything. For each page you open it records:

  • the page's path, such as /events, without anything after a question mark;
  • the page that linked you here, also without anything after a question mark;
  • the page's title, your browser, operating system, kind of device, screen size and language;
  • roughly where you are visiting from: the country, and sometimes the region or city.

Your internet address is shortened before it leaves this site, by blanking its last part. Umami uses what is left to work out where you are visiting from and, with your browser's description, to tell one visitor from another within a day, without a cookie. It does not store the address.

If your browser sends Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control, nothing is counted.

Errors

When a page runs into an error, a report goes to GlitchTip, an open-source error tracker run alongside this site at glitchtip-production-0b1d.up.railway.app, so the fault can be found and fixed. A report holds the error message, where in the site's code it happened, the page's path and your browser's description. Your address is not sent. Errors on the server are reported the same way. Reports are kept for 90 days.

The events page

While a tournament is running, the events page shows its bracket in a frame from the Ravens site at ravensaqw.com. Your browser loads that frame from there, so the Ravens site receives your address and your browser's description, as any site you open does.

Guild admins

Guild admins sign in with Discord to edit their guild's entry. Anyone with a Discord account can sign in, but only people who help run an alliance server can edit anything. Signing in reads your Discord ID, name, avatar and the list of servers you are in, with your permissions in each, to see which alliance servers you help run. Your ID, name, avatar and those alliance servers are kept in a signed cookie for eight hours so the site knows which entry you may edit, and the rest of the list is not kept. Short-lived cookies also cover the few minutes the sign-in takes.

While you edit, the site may also ask Discord, through a bot in your guild's server, whether you still help run it, so access ends soon after it is taken away.

Each change you save is recorded with your Discord ID and name, so it can be traced to who made it, and the editor shows the guild's other admins who saved last. These records are kept for as long as the site runs.
