Privacy Policy
Effective July 30, 2026.
The Uplink Masters website is an informational site about a competitive gaming tournament. There are no user accounts, no sign up, no contact form and no purchases anywhere on it, so there is almost nothing for us to collect.
What we collect
- One functional preference. If you answer the cookie banner, your browser stores a single first party item in local storage named
up-cookie-choiceso we do not ask again. It holds the word accepted or declined and nothing else. It is not a personal identifier and it is never shared. - Standard technical server logs. Our web server records the requested address, a timestamp, the network address of the request and the browser user agent string. These exist to keep the site available and to investigate abuse, are kept briefly, are not used to identify or profile visitors, and are not combined with anything else.
What we do not do
We run no analytics, no advertising cookies and no third party tracking of any kind. We embed no third party content, so nothing on these pages loads from another company's servers. We do not sell, rent or share visitor data, because we hold none to share.
Legal basis
We handle personal information in accordance with the Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy statutes. Under PIPEDA you have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data, and to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (priv.gc.ca).
Your choices
You can decline on the cookie banner, in which case nothing beyond that single preference is stored. You can clear it at any time by clearing site data in your browser, and the banner will ask again on your next visit. Because we hold no account and no profile, there is normally nothing on file to access or erase.
Children
This is a public information site about a gaming tournament. It is not directed at collecting data from children and collects no personal data from any visitor of any age beyond the brief technical logs described above.
Changes
Any change to this policy is posted on this page with a new effective date.
