Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 21, 2026   |   Last Updated: April 12, 2026

1. Introduction

The Abyssal Engine (the "Service") consists of a Discord Bot and a companion Web Application, both developed and operated by Shinra CC (the "Developer"). The Service is designed to facilitate Tabletop RPG gameplay using the Fabula Ultima system. This Privacy Policy describes exactly what data the Service collects, why it is collected, how it is stored, and what rights you have over your data.

By using the Abyssal Engine, whether through Discord slash commands, the Web Application at shinra.cc/fabula-sheet/, or GM tools, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy.

2. What Data We Collect and Why

The Service collects only what is necessary to provide persistent RPG character tracking across sessions. We do not collect, read, or store the content of Discord messages. All data is submitted intentionally by users through slash commands, GM tools, or the Web Application interface.

2a. Web Application Authentication

Data	Purpose
Discord User ID (via OAuth2)	Authenticates your identity when logging into the Web Application. The same ID used by the Discord Bot, ensuring your characters are accessible from both interfaces.
Discord Username & Avatar URL	Displayed in the Web Application header for visual confirmation of the logged-in account. Not stored in the database; held only in the server-side session for the duration of your login.
Session Cookie	A standard PHP session cookie maintains your login state. It contains no personal data and expires when you log out or close your browser.

2b. Player Data

Data	Purpose
Discord User ID (Snowflake)	Uniquely identifies your account across all bot interactions. Serves as the primary key linking all of your stored data.
Active Character Name	Tracks which of your characters is currently selected for commands like /roll and /status.
Character Records	Full character sheets including: character name, level, XP, Fabula Points, Zenit (in-game currency), base attributes (DEX/INS/MIG/WLP), current and maximum HP/IP/MP, equipped weapons and armor, inventory, learned skills, spells, class levels, active status effects, character identity, origin, theme, bonds with other characters, and personal notes entered via /notes or the Web Application.
Server (Guild) ID on Character Records	Associates a character with the server where it was created, used to provide context for GM interactions and scoped commands.
User-Created Homebrew Content	Custom skills and custom weapons you define and submit via bot commands. Stored separately from your character sheet and linked to your Discord User ID.

2c. Game Master (Server-Level) Data

Data	Purpose
Server (Guild) ID	Identifies which Discord server custom content belongs to. Used to scope homebrew weapons, shields, and other items to the correct server's campaigns.
Guild-Specific Homebrew Content	Custom items (weapons, shields, and similar objects) submitted by server members for use within that server's campaigns. Includes the item's name, description, and mechanical properties.
NPC Library Entries	Bestiary creatures and named NPCs created through the Web Application's NPC Builder or imported via the Bot. Includes stat blocks, skills, affinities, tactics, and descriptive text. Linked to the uploader's Discord User ID.
Uploader's Discord User ID	Records which user submitted each piece of guild content or NPC Library entry, to support attribution and content moderation by the server's Game Master.

3. Data We Do Not Collect

• We do not read or store the content of any Discord messages.
• We do not collect usernames, display names, avatars, email addresses, or any other Discord profile information beyond the User ID Snowflake.
• We do not log command usage history or record which commands were run or when.
• We do not use analytics, tracking pixels, or any third-party data collection services.
• We do not share, sell, or transfer any user data to third parties for any purpose.

4. Data Storage

All data is stored in a private Supabase PostgreSQL database hosted by Supabase, Inc., which is subject to their own privacy policy. Access to the database is restricted to the Developer. No other individuals or organizations have access to your data.

5. Data Retention & Your Right to Erasure

Your data is retained for as long as you use the Service, to ensure your character sheet is available whenever you play.

You may permanently delete all data associated with your account at any time by running /deregister within any Discord server where the Bot is present. This command immediately and irreversibly removes your User ID, all associated character records, and all user-generated homebrew content linked to your account. This action cannot be undone.

Guild content you uploaded to a server will have its uploaded_by attribution cleared upon deregistration, but the content itself remains available to that server unless removed by a GM.

If you are unable to use the /deregister command or wish to make a manual erasure request, contact us at admin@shinra.cc. Requests will be fulfilled within 30 days.

6. Children's Privacy

The Abyssal Engine is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect data from users under 13. If you believe a minor has used the Service, please contact us at admin@shinra.cc and we will promptly remove the associated data.

7. Changes to This Policy

If this Privacy Policy changes materially, the "Last Updated" date above will be revised. Continued use of the Bot after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
