1. Commitment to Privacy

Dream Realism is committed to maintaining the highest standards of data protection. Our Service is designed with a "Privacy First" approach, collecting only the absolute minimum data required for license management. You must be at least 16 years old to use our services.

2. Data We Collect

Identity Data

We only store your Discord Snowflake ID and public username. We never access private messages or personal Discord data.

License Data

Encryption-based license keys and activation timestamps are stored to manage your subscription access.

Website Data

IP address (server logs, max 30 days), browser type, operating system, and access timestamps for security purposes only.

Communication

Email address and message content only when you voluntarily contact us via email or support chat.

3. What We Do NOT Collect

Our software and services do not access any of the following:

  • Personal files, documents, or folders on your computer
  • Passwords, credentials, or login tokens
  • Windows Registry or system configuration
  • Hardware IDs or device fingerprints
  • Steam account data or login information
  • Gameplay recordings or screenshots
  • No tracking cookies or third-party analytics are used

4. Local Machine Interaction

Our software validation system is strictly sandboxed within the Assetto Corsa game directory. It does not perform any intrusive scans of your personal files or system hardware.

  • Reads only the license text file in your game directory.
  • Writes only to its own filter configuration files.
  • Sends only the license key to the verification server.
  • No access to Windows Registry or Steam account data.
  • No hardware IDs or IP addresses are permanently logged.

5. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR Article 6)

We process your data based on the following legal grounds:

  • License verification: Contract performance (Art. 6(1)(b)) — necessary to deliver the service you purchased.
  • Server logs: Legitimate interest in security (Art. 6(1)(f)) — protecting our infrastructure against attacks.
  • Email communication: Your consent by contacting us (Art. 6(1)(a)) — we only respond to messages you initiate.

6. Data Security Protocol

All administrative and customer data is stored in secure, encrypted databanks with multi-layer infrastructure protection. We use HTTPS/TLS for all data transmission and implement strict access controls.

7. Data Retention

  • License data: Retained for the duration of your active license plus 12 months after expiration or termination.
  • Server logs: Retained for a maximum of 30 days, then automatically deleted.
  • Communication data: Retained for as long as necessary to resolve your inquiry, then deleted.

You may request deletion of your data at any time (see Section 9).

8. Third-Party Services

We do not sell your data. We use limited third-party providers for infrastructure only:

  • Infrastructure Provider: Secure cloud hosting and service execution.
  • Databank Provider: Encrypted data management services.
  • Authentication Provider: Secure third-party verification services.

All providers are contractually bound to protect your data and process it only on our instructions.
