Privacy Policy

DayZ Server Control uses limited player and technical information to operate, secure and administer the DayZ server and this website.

Information we collect

When you connect to the DayZ server, DayZ Server Control may automatically record your Steam64 ID, current in-game name, connection/session information, server activity and game statistics that are required for server operation, moderation, leaderboards, base registration and other enabled server features.

Support forms may collect information that you choose to submit, such as your gaming name, Discord name, Steam64 ID, report details and evidence.

Why we use this information

Information is used for player identification, server administration, moderation, bans and unbans, security, abuse prevention, player statistics, leaderboards, registered-base features, Starter Kit eligibility, support requests and other server-management functions enabled by the server owner.

Steam64 IDs and public display

A Steam64 ID is used because it provides a persistent identifier for a DayZ/Steam player even when an in-game display name changes. Raw Steam64 IDs are not intended to be displayed publicly by default. Public pages should use player names and appropriate statistics unless a feature specifically requires otherwise.

Who can access player information

Administrative access is restricted through DayZ Server Control roles and permissions. Access should be limited to administrators who require the information for legitimate server-management, moderation, security or support duties.

Retention

Operational records are kept for as long as reasonably required for the feature that created them. Some records may need to be retained for server security, abuse prevention, audit history, active or permanent bans, dispute handling or other legitimate server-administration purposes.

Sharing and sale of information

Player information is not sold, rented or traded, is not used for targeted advertising, and is not intentionally supplied to data brokers. Information may be processed by infrastructure and services needed to operate the community, including the game platform, game services and hosting providers.

Third-party services

DayZ and Steam services are operated separately by Bohemia Interactive and Valve/Steam and are subject to their own terms and privacy practices. The website and game server may also rely on hosting, database, security or communication providers selected by the server owner.

Security

DayZ Server Control is designed to keep administrative tools and machine credentials separate from public pages. Administrative actions and protected operations should use authenticated, permission-controlled server-side processing.

Privacy requests

If you have a question about information associated with your player account or want to make a privacy-related request, use the public Support page and provide enough information for the server administrators to identify the relevant record.

Policy updates

This policy may be updated when DayZ Server Control changes the categories of information it processes, introduces new player-facing features, or changes how information is stored or used. The current version will remain available from the website footer.
