Your account
Only if you sign in with Discord. Stored in our database (Supabase, in the EU):
Your in-game names and where you play are visible only to buddies you've accepted, and where you play only while "Show my buddies where I play" is on. Turning it off deletes it.
Where you are
To estimate your ping to each server, the website asks its host for your approximate location (city level), worked out from your connection. It's used in your browser and not stored.
The optional codforever app for your PC looks up your public IP's location with ip-api.com instead, for the same purpose. The app also reads which Call of Duty games you have installed and your CoD2x version, and measures pings from your PC; none of that leaves your PC.
Game servers
Our scanner reads what game servers publish to everyone: their settings, map and mode, and the names, scores and pings of the players on them. We keep only the latest snapshot of each server, not a history of who played where.
A player name is linked to an account only if that player adds it.
And then it's shown only to their accepted buddies.
Services we use
Umami counts visits without cookies and stores nothing on your device. It records the page, the referring site, your browser, device type and rough location, and what was used (Join, Refresh, a filter), never your account, names or what you search for. Your IP address is used briefly to work out the location and an anonymous visitor count, and isn't kept in the statistics. With Do Not Track on in your browser, nothing is sent.
Those services operate under their own privacy policies. Each one your browser contacts sees your IP address, as with any website.
What we do not do
