2. What this website collects

To generate a map, Meitaim Rust Maps receives the branch, size and seed you choose. To render a map file, it receives the file's contents, without its name. It stores each map and everything made from it. A generated map is filed under its branch, size and seed. An uploaded file is filed under a fingerprint of its contents and linked to the account that uploaded it. Generated maps also appear in a public gallery, where anyone can search them by seed, size, branch and monuments. Uploaded maps do not. The gallery does not show who made a map. You choose who can open each map you upload and each fast map you make with a shaped world. Closed lets only its owners open it, and is the default. View only shows the map to anyone with its link. Open also shows them its settings and lets them download its .map file. Everyone who uploads the same file owns that map, and the most open choice among its owners applies. These maps are kept under your account in My maps, with the name and note you give them, and only you see those. A fast map without a shaped world opens for anyone with its link, with its settings and its .map file.

While you sign in, Meitaim Rust Maps keeps a one-time code proving the sign-in started here, and the page to bring you back to, in your browser's session storage. Once you are signed in, it keeps your sign-in tokens there, with the email address, username or name it shows you. While the tab stays open, it renews the tokens before they expire. It removes the tokens when you sign out or id.meitaim.dev refuses to renew them, and the browser clears everything when you close the tab. There is nothing to consent to, so there is no banner.

Cloudflare processes your IP address to deliver each request and block attacks. The website itself keeps no request logs.

Our services also send traces, logs and metrics to monitoring we run ourselves. A trace from Meitaim Rust Maps records the kind of request, its route without the values, the response, how long it took, and your browser's user agent string. It does not record your IP address, your account or your seed.

3. What you send us

When you contact us by email, on Discord, or by any other means, we process what you send: your name, your address on that channel, and whatever the message contains.

4. Your Meitaim account

Signing in to Meitaim apps, such as Meitaim Rust Maps and the page where you see your payments and subscriptions, uses a Meitaim account.

The account holds your email address, your name and your username, and what you sign in with: a hash of your password, your passkeys and your second factors. If you link a Google or GitHub account, it also holds the identifier that provider gives you, and the provider tells us your email address and name when you sign in with it. We also keep security logs of sign-ins and changes to the account, with the IP address and browser user agent string they came from.

Meitaim Rust Maps needs the account for the subscription, saved maps and uploads. When you sign in, it receives the profile id.meitaim.dev returns, with your account identifier, email address, username and name, and uses only the email address, username or name to show who is signed in. It sends your sign-in token with each map request and each upload. Our map service uses it to look up whether you subscribe, remembering the answer for one minute. It also uses it to keep the list of gallery maps you save under your account, and to link each file you upload to your account. It also sends the token to our payments service to start a checkout. id.meitaim.dev sets the cookies AUTH_SESSION_ID and KC_RESTART while you sign in, and KEYCLOAK_IDENTITY and KEYCLOAK_SESSION to keep you signed in. Your sign-in there ends after 30 days without use, and after 90 days at most.

To provide services
We process the settings and files you send to make your maps, and link each file you upload to your account. The basis is performance of our contract with you.
To show your saved maps
We keep the list of gallery maps you save under your Meitaim account, so you can find them again. The basis is performance of our contract with you.
To meet legal duties
Accounting and tax law requires us to keep certain records. The basis is our legal obligation.
To sign you in
We use your Meitaim account to sign you in and to give your maps the priority you pay for. The basis is performance of our contract with you.
To keep your account safe
We use the security logs to protect your account. The basis is our legitimate interest in keeping accounts safe.

6. Who else sees it

We do not sell personal data and we do not share it for advertising. These providers process it on our behalf:

Cloudflare
Serves this website and our other services, and keeps backups of our records.
Hosting provider
Hosts the servers in the EU that store your maps, your Meitaim account and purchase records.
Resend
Sends emails about your Meitaim account.

PayNow sells our products as merchant of record: you buy from PayNow, not from us. It is not our processor and decides for itself how it uses your data:

PayNow Services, Inc.
Collects your payment and billing details. We send it your account identifier and nothing else. Your card details go to PayNow, never to us. PayNow tells us what you bought and the state of your subscriptions.

Google and GitHub also decide for themselves how they use your data when you choose to sign in with them. We also disclose data where the law requires it.

Cloudflare, Resend and PayNow are based in the United States, so your data may go there. These transfers rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or on standard contractual clauses.

For a copy of these safeguards, write to privacy@meitaim.dev.

7. How long we keep it

Monitoring
Traces are kept for 7 days, logs for 14 days, and metrics for 30 days.
Generated maps
We don't delete generated maps. They hold no personal data. Download links for any map expire after six hours.
Uploaded maps
We keep an uploaded map while anyone who uploaded it has an active subscription. Once no one does, we delete it 7 days after the later of two dates: the last time anyone uploaded it, and the day the last of their subscriptions ended. Uploading the map again moves the first date to that day. Ask and we delete it sooner.
Saved maps
Kept until you unsave a map or ask us to delete the list.
Correspondence
Kept while it is useful to the relationship, and to prevent abuse.
Purchase records
Kept while your subscription runs, then for three years after your last order, the general limitation period for claims from a transaction under Estonian law. Which account they belong to is kept until you ask us to delete that link at privacy@meitaim.dev.
Your Meitaim account
Kept until you delete it or ask us to. Then it can no longer be used to sign in. Within 90 days of that, we delete its security logs, including IP addresses and user agent strings. After that, we keep only a record that the account existed and when it was created and deleted, with no contact details, IP addresses or user agent strings. Deleting your account does not delete your saved maps, your uploaded maps or the link to your purchases. Ask us and we delete them.
Backups
Newer backups replace older ones over time. When we delete data, including at your request, copies in older backups stay until they are replaced. We restore from a backup only to recover from a failure.
Billing records
Kept for seven years, the period Estonian accounting law requires.
