What we store and why

Public osu! data

For tracked players we store what the osu! API makes public: username, country, rank, pp, accuracy, play count and scores, plus snapshots over time so we can draw history. A player is tracked when they sign in, when a Discord server they're in adds them, or when they rank highly. Any player can stop this on Privacy & account: their stats are deleted and their osu! id is blocked from being added again.

Your osu! ascent account

• Sign-in: your osu! id and/or Discord id. We don't receive passwords or emails.
• Discord: the list of servers you're in (to show your dashboards and join rosters, which you can turn off), and, in servers the bot is in, whether Discord shows you playing osu! right now (used for "in game" and session recaps; not stored as history).
• What you do here: Cookies ledger, predictions, badges, shop items and stickers, your profile look (bio, pinned plays, featured badge, sticker places), training and Codex progress, follows and bookmarks, poll votes, suggestions, comments, reports and any sticker art you upload.
• Supporting: if you subscribe, your tier, its status and renewal date. Payment is handled by Stripe; we never see or store card details.
• Analytics: page counts per path and day only — no IP addresses, browser cookies or user ids. If you're logged in, we also note which days you used the site (the day only, not the pages or the time), to see how many players come back. For visits from another site we count only that site's name (e.g. reddit.com) or the link's utm_source tag, per day, with nothing about you.
• Error reports: if a page breaks in your browser, the error message and the page, never who you are.

Cookies and storage in your browser

• One login cookie, only after you log in. It keeps you logged in for up to 30 days and is removed when you log out. There are no advertising or tracking cookies, so there's no cookie banner.
• Your colour and light/dark choice, and whether you've seen the welcome note, are kept in your browser's local storage. They never leave your device.

Who else handles data

• Amazon Web Services runs the server the site, the bot and the database live on.
• osu! (ppy) provides the public osu! data and the "Log in with osu!" sign-in. Discord provides the Discord sign-in, and receives the messages our bot posts in servers.
• Stripe takes payments for supporter tiers.
• Fonts and all site files are served from our own address. Pages don't load anything from Google or other third parties, and there are no ads.

How long we keep things

• Your account data: until you delete your account. Days you were active: 400 days. Browser error reports: 30 days. Login sessions: until they expire or you log out.
• Backups of the database are made every 6 hours and replaced after about 3½ days, so deleted data leaves the backups within that time.

Your controls

• Hide your Cookies, badges and training from your profile.
• Unlink osu! or Discord (as long as one sign-in method remains).
• Download everything we store about you as JSON.
• Stop tracking your osu! account, or delete your osu! ascent account entirely.

All of these are on Privacy & account. Deleting your account erases your personal data, including your uploaded sticker art; finished tournament results and Cookies totals stay, anonymized, so other people's history stays correct.

Sharing

We don't sell data or show ads. Public pages and the public API show public osu! data and what you chose to make visible. Discord server dashboards are always private to their members, admins and site staff. A boosted server's admins can choose to make a small public page (its name, colour, banner, number of players and Discord invite), and nothing else about the server is shown there.

Questions and requests

Ask us anything about your data, or ask us to do something you can't do yourself, on our Discord or by email at osuascent@pocketcomet.net. If this notice changes, we'll say so on the Updates page.
