How GamingDiver Uses Accounts

You can browse public ship/reference pages without signing in. Uploading your own export requires an account so GamingDiver can store your uploads and processed stats securely, restore your dashboard across devices, build trends over time, and give you export/delete controls for stored data.

Upload Processing

When you upload your game data export, GamingDiver reads and parses the file in your browser before saving the upload and processed statistics to your signed-in account:

• The file is read by your browser's JavaScript engine
• CSV data is parsed using Papa Parse
• ZIP files are extracted using JSZip
• Charts are rendered using Chart.js
• Your uploaded exports and processed stats are stored in Supabase for dashboard restore, trends, community aggregation, and account data controls

What We Store

When you create an account and upload data, the following data is stored securely in our cloud infrastructure (powered by Supabase):

• Profile information: Display name, gamertag, platform preference
• Data exports: Your uploaded ZIP files are stored in encrypted cloud storage
• Processed statistics: Career stats, per-mode stats, and per-ship stats from each upload
• Upload history: Filenames, upload dates, and summary stats

All stored data is protected by Row Level Security so only you can access your own data through the application.

How We Use Your Data

GamingDiver staff may access stored data for the following limited purposes:

• Contractual Obligation: Debugging issues, fixing data processing errors, and ensuring the service works correctly for your account (e.g., supporting newly released ships or game updates)
• Legitimate Interest: Generating aggregate, anonymized statistics such as leaderboards, community-wide trends, or game balance insights. Your data may contribute to these features, but your identity is never publicly associated without your explicit opt-in.

We will never use your data for advertising, profiling, or selling to third parties.

Authentication Providers

You can sign in with Microsoft, Google, Discord, or email/password. When using a social login provider:

• Authentication is handled by the provider, so we never see or store your password
• We only receive basic profile info (name, email) needed to create your account
• Each provider has its own privacy policy governing how they handle your data
• We do not share your data with any authentication provider

Data Sharing

We never sell or share your personal data with third parties. Your game data and personal information are never sold, licensed, or made available to external parties. Aggregate, anonymized statistics (e.g., leaderboards, global ship performance) may be displayed publicly but will never identify you without your explicit consent.

Local Caching

Regardless of account status, GamingDiver stores your processed results in your browser's IndexedDB (local storage). This data:

• Never leaves your device
• Is only accessible by this website on this browser
• Can be cleared at any time using the "Clear Data" button on the dashboard
• Is automatically deleted if you clear your browser data

Minimal Analytics

We use basic analytics to understand site usage and improve GamingDiver. This may include Cloudflare Web Analytics, Google Analytics, Ahrefs analytics, and a public Supabase request for aggregate site counters shown on the landing page.

• Analytics are used for aggregate usage measurement, not advertising profiles or selling data
• Uploaded export files and parsed game statistics are not sent through analytics events
• Cloudflare Web Analytics does not use cookies or fingerprint visitors
• You can verify network requests using your browser's developer tools

Your Rights (GDPR Compliance)

If you have an account, you have the following rights:

• Right to access: Export all your data at any time (see below)
• Right to deletion: Delete your account and all associated data (see below)
• Right to portability: Download your data in a standard JSON format
• Consent: Cloud storage only happens after you explicitly create an account and agree to this policy

Export Your Data

Download a complete copy of all your stored data (profile, uploads, statistics) as a JSON file.

Delete Your Cloud Data

Remove your stored exports, processed snapshots, upload history, monthly reports, and profile fields from GamingDiver cloud storage. This action cannot be undone. Local browser cache may remain until you clear it separately. Full authentication-account deletion requires a privileged backend/admin deletion flow; contact support if you need the login account removed entirely.

Clear Local Data

To remove all cached data from your browser (this does not affect cloud data):

1. Go to the dashboard and click "Clear Data"
2. Or clear this site's data in your browser settings

Verify It Yourself

GamingDiver's client-side code is open and inspectable:

• Open your browser's Network tab to verify what data is transmitted
• During upload, you will see Supabase API calls for auth, upload storage, processed stats, and cloud dashboard data
• Analytics events should not include uploaded export files or raw parsed game statistics
