QuakeHub — Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 14, 2026

QuakeHub is built to collect as little as possible. We do not sell data, run advertising trackers, or build profiles of users. Here’s exactly what happens.

Website

• No accounts, no tracking analytics. The site sets no advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
• Ping estimate. To estimate your latency to each server, we look up an approximate location from your IP address (via an offline GeoIP dataset) at request time. This lookup is computed on the fly and not stored.
• Local preferences. Your favorite servers and last-used game are saved in your browser’s local storage, on your device only — never sent to us.
• Standard server logs. Like any website, our host may briefly process request metadata (IP, user-agent) to serve traffic and prevent abuse.

Discord bot

• Slash commands. When you run a command, Discord sends us the interaction so we can reply. We process it to respond and do not log or retain the request, and we do not read your messages.
• /track alerts. When you set up a track, we store only what’s needed to deliver alerts to that channel: the Discord channel ID, and your tracking choice (a player name, a server, or a game and mode). We do not store your Discord user ID, your messages, or any profile information.
• Removal. Tracks are deleted when you run /track remove, or automatically if the bot loses access to the channel. Removing the bot from your server stops all processing for it.

Game & player data

Server names, maps, scores, and the in-game player names you see are public information broadcast by the game servers themselves. QuakeHub queries public game master servers and displays this data; it is not personal data we collect about you.

Third-party services

To provide certain features, QuakeHub reads public data from a few services: the Steam Web API (Quake Live server lists), the Twitch API (live streams), and QLStats (Quake Live skill ratings). The site is hosted on Fly.io. These providers have their own privacy policies.

Children

QuakeHub is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from them.
