Who we are
Our website address is: https://SCGhosts.org
We are SOCOM Ghosts — a Star Citizen organization focused on tactical gameplay, immersive operations, and community-driven content.
Comments
If visitors leave comments on the site (currently disabled or not in use), we may collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection.
An anonymized string (hash) generated from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to display a profile picture. For details, see Gravatar’s privacy policy.
Media
If you upload images to the site (not currently enabled), we recommend avoiding images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors may be able to extract this information.
Cookies
We may use cookies to:
- Store basic user preferences
- Track referral links (e.g. for Star Citizen referral bonuses)
- Enhance performance and user experience
If you interact with embedded media, use forms, or visit certain pages, cookies may be stored on your device temporarily or for convenience.
Logging in or creating an account on this site (if enabled in the future) will store additional cookies related to authentication and display preferences.
Embedded content from other websites
Our site includes embedded content such as:
- YouTube tutorial videos
- Official Star Citizen news via RSS feed
- Discord server widgets (if applicable)
- Images or posts from RSI or other community sites
These behave the same as if you visited those sites directly. They may collect data, use cookies, and monitor your interaction based on your account status with the third-party service.
Analytics
We may use anonymous website analytics (like Jetpack, Google Analytics, or similar) to monitor traffic and improve content. These services may use cookies and collect basic data such as IP address, browser version, and referring pages.
Referral Program
When you use our Star Citizen referral link, the only information passed is to the official RSI website. We do not collect personal data as part of the referral program.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment (if enabled in the future), the comment and metadata are retained indefinitely. For users that register (if registration is ever enabled), we store the profile data you provide.
Who we share your data with
We do not share your personal data with third parties, except where necessary to maintain website functionality (such as spam protection or embedded services).
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site or have submitted content, you can request to receive an exported file of your personal data. You may also request its deletion — except for data we’re required to retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
Where your data is sent
Visitor interactions may be checked through automated spam detection services. Embedded services (such as YouTube or Discord) may have their own data handling processes.
Contact
If you have questions or concerns about this policy or your data, feel free to contact us via [email protected] or reach out directly through our Discord community.
