Legal Information

1. Introduction

Lynx Auth ("we", "our", or "us") operates the Lynx Auth authentication service and its associated web properties. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our services.

By accessing or using Lynx Auth, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue your use of our services.

2. Information We Collect

We collect several types of information to provide and improve our services:

• Account data: When you register, we collect your username, email address, and a hashed version of your password.
• Hardware identifiers (HWID): Our authentication system may process hardware fingerprints of your end-users' devices for licensing verification. These are stored as one-way cryptographic hashes.
• Usage data: We collect information on how our API and dashboard are accessed, including IP addresses, request timestamps, endpoints called, and response codes.
• Payment data: Transactions are handled through third-party processors. We do not store full card details on our servers.
• Communications: If you contact us via Discord or email, we retain those communications to resolve your inquiry.

3. How We Use Your Information

• To provide, operate, and maintain the Lynx Auth service.
• To authenticate end-users of applications built on our platform.
• To detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent or abusive activity.
• To send transactional and service-related communications.
• To analyze usage patterns and improve our platform.
• To comply with applicable legal obligations.

4. Data Retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active or as required to provide services. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us via Discord.

Aggregated, anonymized analytics data may be retained indefinitely as it cannot be used to identify you.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including TLS encryption for data in transit, hashed storage of sensitive identifiers, and restricted access controls. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us through our Discord server.
