Privacy
Sharp sends nothing unless the server owner allows it in eula.txt. This page lists everything it can send.
Usage stats
With sharp-usage-stats=true, the server sends this five minutes after it starts and every 30 minutes after that:
- a random number made fresh at every start
- the Sharp build, the operating system and the processor type
- how many CPU cores the machine has and how much memory the server uses
- how many players are online and how many entities are loaded
- the average tick time and how long the server has been running
Never player names, the server's address, the world's name or anything in the world.
Crash reports
With sharp-crash-reports=true, when the server crashes it sends the crash report it saves in the crash-reports folder. The report holds the error, where in Sharp's code it happened, the operating system, the CPU count, the memory used and the uptime. The error itself can include coordinates, names of players or entities, and file paths on the machine.
It also records the build, the thread and the line of Sharp's code where the crash happened, so we can count crashes.
Who keeps it, and for how long
Usage stats and crash counts are stored with Cloudflare, which also hosts this site, in its European region, and deleted after 90 days. Crash reports go to a private Discord channel that only Sharp's developers can read, and stay there until we delete them. Discord is based in the United States.
Like any connection, the server's IP address reaches Cloudflare or Discord when it sends something. Sharp never stores it. Cloudflare and Discord handle it under their own privacy policies.
Changing your mind
Set the line back to false in eula.txt and restart the server. Usage stats can't be traced back to a server, so we can't find them to delete them. To have a crash report deleted, write to us.
We only send this because you agreed to it in eula.txt, and you can take that back at any time. You can ask us what we hold about you, have it deleted, or complain to the data protection authority in your country.
