🛡️ Our Commitment to Enhanced Privacy

[View Our Full Privacy Policy Here]

At Uncrowned Empire, your privacy is a core value — not just a checkbox. Across all our platforms (Uncrowned Addiction, Uncrowned Gaming, and Uncrowned Armory), we are committed to honest, user-first data practices and believe you deserve to know exactly how your data is (and isn’t) used.

🔒 What We Stand For

• We do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with AI services or data brokers.

• We do not consent to the use of user data for AI training or model development in any form.

• We do not use AI tools that access site data or user information. All AI-assisted content is created internally and never processes live user information.

However, we also believe in transparency about the tools and partners we do use — especially where third-party advertising is involved.

📢 Where Monetization Affects Privacy

To support our platform, we work with Google AdSense and Sovrn Commerce, both of which may use cookies and tracking mechanisms beyond our direct control. Here’s what that means:

Google AdSense

AdSense may serve personalized or contextual ads to visitors, which can include tracking based on browsing behavior across the web. While registered users do not see these ads, guests will be shown standard banner ads, which may involve Google’s ad network and data practices.

Sovrn Commerce

Links shared across our platform may automatically be converted into affiliate links using Sovrn’s system. This does not affect your browsing experience, but clicking those links may allow third-party tracking by the linked retailer or Sovrn’s network.

These services are standard in online publishing and help us maintain our platforms, but we encourage users to review the privacy policies of these services directly.

📊 Data Handling: Transparent and Minimal

We follow a data minimization approach and only collect what’s necessary to operate and personalize your experience.

What We Store:

• Account info like your username and email address, stored securely.

• We do not collect sensitive personal information.

• We do not use your data for algorithm training or AI development.

What We Track (Anonymously):

• Aggregate site data such as daily page views, device types, and traffic patterns — all stripped of personal identifiers.

• These reports are generated using Matomo On-Premise, a privacy-first, self-hosted analytics tool:

  • No data is shared with third parties.

  • IP addresses are anonymized.

  • All analytics are stored on our own servers.

📧 Email Use: Limited and Controlled

Your email address is:

• Only visible to authorized Uncrowned staff

• Used for essential communications (e.g., account notices or mass emails you've opted into)

• Handled securely via SendGrid, which cannot use or access your email for any unrelated purpose

⚖️ Legal Compliance

We comply with legal obligations, including legitimate requests from law enforcement or courts. While we protect user privacy, we will act in accordance with the law if required.

We also want to be clear: our platform is not a haven for illegal activity. Violations of law or our Terms of Service will result in account bans and may be reported to appropriate authorities.

✅ In Summary

• We do not sell user data.

• We do not train or feed AI tools with your information.

• We use ad and affiliate services that may include third-party tracking — but only for guests and public content.

• We value transparency and strive to minimize data usage whenever possible.
