3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information for the following purposes:

• To create and maintain your account and public profile page

• To provide analytics about visits to your profile and clicks on your links

4. Third-Party Services

frost.rip relies on third-party services to operate. Each has its own privacy policy governing how they handle data:

• Discord: Authentication provider. We receive basic profile information through OAuth2
• Hosting and analytics: We use trusted infrastructure providers for hosting, data storage, file storage, caching, and privacy-friendly, cookie-free web analytics

5. Cookies and Tracking

frost.rip uses a session cookie to keep you signed in. We do not use third-party tracking cookies or advertising cookies. Our analytics collect anonymous usage data without placing cookies on your device. No data is sold to or shared with advertisers.

6. Data Retention

Your profile data, links, and account information are retained for as long as your account is active. Visit analytics data such as IP addresses used for deduplication are stored temporarily and automatically expire. Cached data has short time-to-live values and is automatically purged. If you delete your account, your profile and associated data will be removed from our systems.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information, including using HTTPS encryption for all data in transit and relying on trusted infrastructure providers. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
