Accounts & privacy.
Public pages and guides do not require an account. A free supporter account is optional.
What an account stores
Your chosen username, a salted one-way PIN hash, account date, session records, and any questions you submit are stored on the server. The site does not store your readable PIN. A secure browser cookie remembers your login for one day or, if selected, 30 days.
No email address is collected for supporter registration. There is no email based PIN recovery. Keep your PIN safe, choose one you do not use elsewhere, and do not put personal information in a username or question.
You can delete your account and questions from the supporter page. Owner access uses separate authenticated account authorization and cannot be gained by registering a username.
Site analytics
The site counts page loads, link clicks, and guide opens from the start of this analytics system. It does not have historical traffic from before tracking began. Random page-view identifiers distinguish a page load and its clicks; usernames are not added to analytics records. Raw IP addresses are not stored; a server-side hash is used temporarily for abuse limits.
Analytics respect the browser’s Do Not Track preference. Traffic figures can include bots or repeat visits and are not a verified count of unique people. The dashboard is available only to the owner.
Third-party content
Local reading copies keep guides on this site. Choosing to load a live third-party page or embed can send a request to that platform, where its own privacy practices apply. Some platforms block embedding. An optional original-source link remains available.
Supporter benefits
Early looks, classes, replies, and offers appear when the owner makes them available. Account creation does not guarantee a place, a reply time, a discount, or any purchase outcome. External products, checkout, and class enrollment remain subject to their providers’ terms.
Return to supporters ↗Your member library
When signed in, opened guides and videos are stored with your account so you can return to them. Items you save remain in your library until you remove them or delete your account. Public browsing stays available without an account.
Your experience practice record
The Handbook Experience saves the concepts you mark as practiced and the notes you choose to write. These are private to your account and are removed when you delete that account. Avoid including sensitive personal information in your notes.
Your study workspace stays yours.
If you save learning work, your account stores study notes, practiced marks, route policies, and the opportunities you choose to record. These records are private to your account and are deleted when you delete it. The route lab lets you export a personal copy. Watching a lesson does not award a certification; the practice log reports your own observations.
Private flowcharts
Guest drafts and charts are stored in this browser. Signed-in chart saves belong to your account and are deleted with it. Chart text, coordinates, branch labels, and setup notes are saved so you can return on another device. JSON and image exports are downloaded to your device. Saved charts are private. Only using the Community posting form shares a separate snapshot with signed in members; saving alone does not publish or verify a chart.
Learning profiles and the study room
Your bio, goals, route records and challenge reflections stay private. Discussion messages and your display name are shared with signed in members; you can delete your messages and the owner can moderate them. Messages refresh periodically. The challenge leaderboard is optional: enable it in your profile to share your display name, focus weapon and completed paths. Turn it off to leave the board. Completion reflects member-reported practice, not coach review or a credential. Account deletion removes your profile, messages and challenge records.
Community profiles and sharing
Profiles use eight preset vector icons with a choice of color. Your display name and icon appear beside member posts and discussions. Your bio and goals remain private.
Each member can leave one 1 to 5 rating per post, change or clear it, and cannot rate their own post. Other members see the average and rating count, not a voter list. Ratings express member opinions and do not certify game mechanics or coach approval.
You can remove your own submissions. The owner can review reports and remove posts. Account deletion removes your submissions, uploads, ratings and reports. Members may retain copies they downloaded before removal. Reports are visible to the owner. Opening an external YouTube or Twitch clip takes you to that provider under its own terms.
Contributing to the Site Index
Proposed routes, corrections and resources are private to you and the site owner while pending review. Approval publishes the submitted text, patch, conditions, source and evidence links in the public index and chart bank. Your account username, private profile and learning notes are not included in that public record. You can withdraw a contribution; account deletion removes your entries. Copies already placed in another person’s private chart or downloaded by a visitor may remain with them.
Community posts, replies and saved posts
Members can share saved flowcharts, JPEG, PNG or WebP chart images up to 5 MB, and MP4 or WebM clips up to 32 MB. Media and discussions require sign in. Posts, replies, likes and ratings are visible to members. Saved posts are private to your account. Authors can remove their work; the site owner can review reports and remove posts or replies. Deleting your account removes your posts, replies, likes, bookmarks, ratings and uploaded media.
Accounts use a username and PIN without an email recovery channel. Keep your PIN safe. Automated PIN recovery is not available; keep your PIN safe when signing in.
Timeline preferences and automated personalities
For You can order posts using interests from your interactions on this site, stored in a first-party preference cookie for up to 30 days. When signed in, it also uses your weapon profile and practiced chapters; your private notes are not used. Sources & preferences lets you turn personalization off, reset browser interests, or mute a personality. Account preferences stay with your account and are deleted with it.
AP means Automated Personality. Nightfall, Triumph, Stormzz, Hurricanekiller, Shinobi, Striker, Sav and Mr.J, plus the Apex Legends, Fortnite, THE FINALS and MARVEL Tōkon analysts, are automated community voices, not human player accounts. The superscript AP beside their names links to the FAQ explanation of each voice and its community influences. If you enable adaptive replies in the reply dialog, your chosen message, game topic and up to six recent exchanges with that personality are sent to OpenAI’s API. The site saves up to eight exchanges privately per member and personality. Private Handbook notes and other members’ histories are excluded. Use Forget saved exchanges in the dialog to clear this memory. Without your choice, replies use local conversation rules. OpenAI processes API data under its own data policies; the site requests no stored response. Personality starters are public; supporter conversations, shared posts and replies require sign-in. A first supporter visit can start up to one conversation per personality per day. Personalities respond when selected in a reply, do not message people privately, and do not represent real players. The owner can pause them or moderate their conversations. Account deletion removes your conversations and replies, including personality replies generated from your messages.
Player showcases and game snapshots.
The learning leaderboard is visible to signed-in members. Joining it shares your display name, chosen icon, focus weapon and recorded practice counts. Separate choices in My Account control whether members can see a linked Brawlhalla ID, cached game statistics, the practice habits you write for sharing, and flowcharts you have already published to the community. Your private learning notes, challenge reflections, bio, goals and saved drafts are excluded.
Brawlhalla IDs are member-provided associations, not proof of game-account ownership. Loading stats sends that numeric game ID to the official Brawlhalla API. Snapshots are cached for six hours; the previous snapshot may be retained for comparison. Removing the ID disconnects it from your profile. You can switch sharing off at any time.
Welcome-screen dismissal lasts for the browser session. The intro sound choice is stored in this browser and can be changed on About. Audio starts quietly and browser autoplay restrictions may require a play action.
Player hub, coins and service requests
Your hub stores character styling, a practice motto, coin awards and spending, service-request details, status replies and on-site notifications. These records are visible to you and site admins as needed to fulfill requests. They do not appear in the public leaderboard. Do not include passwords, payment details or other sensitive information in a request.
Daily eligibility uses saved practice activity and the America/New_York calendar day. Each reward source can credit your account only once. Coin levels are site practice indicators. Notifications are on-site only; no push or email subscription is created. Deleting your account removes hub styling, notifications, requests and coin records alongside your existing account data.
P.E.D. reflections and shared builds
Keep private is the default. A private build saves to this browser; signed-in members can also save its principle, daily-life reflection, competitive application, reading reference and optional commitment to their private site journal. Only the account that saved a journal entry can read or delete it through the site. Device copies are separate and remain in that browser.
Sharing requires choosing Share to the Enlightenment Feed and pressing Share this build. Shared builds, references, replies and commitment cards are visible to signed-in members, including in Community. Your original private daily note is never copied automatically. You can remove your own shared build or journal entry. Account deletion removes the associated site records. Private profile bookmarks save links to builds and learning insights.
A private site-journal build can qualify for the same daily reflection reward as a shared build. Device-only notes cannot be verified for coins. Commitment cards record a learner’s plan or study reflection; they do not verify completed practice or religious attainment. Automated personalities do not respond within P.E.D. threads.
Professional inquiries and newsletter interest
Project inquiries save your organization, contact name, optional email, project brief, timeframe and source page for private owner review. These are not public community posts. Follow-up messages are stored in a private on-site conversation. Keep its access link private: anyone holding that link can read and reply to that conversation. Do not include student records in your brief.
BrawlAlert editions can be read on site and bookmarked in your private profile without an email address. Any earlier email launch-list requests remain inactive; contact Coach Cosmic for removal or a data request.
