Privacy

What this is

Lemony SMP is a private, invite-only Minecraft server run by a family for their kids and invited friends. It is not a commercial service. There is no sign-up, no account creation, and no public access — you join only if someone who runs the server gives you a whitelist spot.

What we store

• Minecraft usernames of whitelisted players
• Play session logs (which world, when you joined and left) — used to power the streak counter and leaderboard on the dashboard
• Chat messages sent in-game — used for the Scrapbook highlights feed visible to players on the dashboard
• Dashboard login credentials for the family members who manage the server (bcrypt-hashed passwords, no plaintext stored)

What we do not store

• Real names, email addresses, or contact information of players
• Age, birthdate, or any demographic information
• IP addresses of players beyond what the Minecraft server itself logs during a session (standard server behavior)
• Any data about players who are not actively whitelisted

Kids and minors

We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors beyond what is necessary to run the server (Minecraft username, playtime). We do not share any player data with third parties. We do not run ads. We do not use analytics services. The dashboard is accessible only to family members with an account — players cannot see other players' data.

Third-party services

• Mojang / Microsoft — Minecraft account authentication for premium (Java) players. Governed by their own privacy policy.
• Crafty host — The server runs on self-hosted hardware. No cloud provider holds your gameplay data.

That's it. No Google Analytics, no Facebook Pixel, no advertising networks.

Data removal

If you want your username and play history removed from the server, contact the server admin. We'll remove your whitelist entry and purge your play logs within 7 days.
