Privacy notice

This privacy notice explains what Symfonium Customizations stores, why it is stored, and how that data is used to operate the site safely.

What we collect

Depending on how you use the site, Symfonium Customizations may store:

account data such as your email address, display name, author slug, and account status
uploaded content such as JSON files, icon-pack APKs, screenshots, version notes, and moderation outcomes
report, abuse, and moderation records linked to customizations, versions, or accounts
security and operational records such as request IDs, rate-limit state, login request records, and pseudonymous requester fingerprints
consent acknowledgment records for the site cookie notice
aggregate engagement data such as downloads, page views, and likes

Why we use this data

We use this data to:

authenticate users with magic-link sign-in
publish and moderate the site
protect the site against abuse, spam, and repeated malicious actions
operate downloads, page views, likes, reports, and moderation workflows
keep basic operational logs, metrics, backups, and restore procedures for the service

Cookies

Symfonium Customizations uses necessary cookies only.

These cookies support:

sign-in and session handling
CSRF and other security protections
remembering that you dismissed the cookie notice

The site does not use third-party analytics cookies.

Public and private data

Public customization pages may show information such as:

customization name and description
screenshots
version history and release notes
author display name and author page

The site does not publish account email addresses on public pages.

Staff users with moderation access may see additional operational data required to review submissions, reports, abuse actions, and user status. Moderator-role users have a reduced view compared with admins.

Security and retention

The site stores only the information needed to run the site, moderate content, investigate abuse, and recover the service when needed.

Some operational and moderation records may remain after a customization is hidden or an account is disabled when that retention is needed for security, moderation history, backup integrity, or legal compliance.

Your choices

You can browse public customizations without signing in. An account is required to upload customizations, manage your own releases, and vote on customizations.

If you have an account, you can currently update your display name from your account settings page. More account-management options may be added later.

For the rules that apply when using or uploading to the site, see the Terms of use.
