Privacy Policy

1. What we collect and why

• Contact form: what you enter (category, message and, if you choose, a contact for a reply), the page you sent it from (address and title, site language, game), what your browser reports (browser and operating system, browser languages, screen and window size, time zone, color theme, touch support) and your country (the country code Cloudflare provides). We use it to answer and to reproduce and fix problems.
• Spam protection: we keep only a hash made from your IP address and browser details mixed with a secret value. We do not store the IP address itself.
• Share links (short codes): we store the tool settings or crafting steps you share and when the code was made, together with the same kind of hash so one visitor cannot make too many codes in a short time.
• Visit statistics: Cloudflare Web Analytics counts page views, referrers, countries, device and browser types and page speed. It uses no cookies and does not identify individual visitors.
• Access logs: the site runs on Cloudflare, which processes connection data such as IP addresses to deliver the site and keep it secure (blocking attacks).
• Email: messages sent to [email protected] are forwarded through Cloudflare Email Routing to the operator’s mailbox (Gmail).

2. How long we keep it

• Contact form messages: deleted automatically one year after they arrive. You can ask for earlier deletion.
• The hash of who made a share code: erased 24 hours after the code is made. The shared content and the code are kept so the link keeps working.
• Email: kept as long as needed to answer and follow up, and deleted on request.
• Visit statistics and access logs: under Cloudflare’s policies.

3. Information stored only in your browser

The following stays in your browser and is never sent to our servers. Clearing the site’s data in your browser deletes it, and deleted Path of Building builds cannot be recovered.

• Color theme, site language and menu favorites
• Saved tool settings (presets) and the last settings of each tool
• A temporary copy of market prices (deleted when you close the tab)
• Builds saved in Path of Building (browser storage of pob.poe.run)

4. Cookies

We use no advertising or tracking cookies. Cloudflare may set cookies that are strictly necessary for security.

5. Service providers and international transfers

• Cloudflare, Inc. (USA): hosting, database, file storage, visit statistics and email forwarding. The information above is sent over the network when you use the site and processed in Cloudflare’s data centers worldwide; the database is in the Asia-Pacific region. Kept as described in section 2.
• Google LLC (USA): storing email received at [email protected] (Gmail).
• We do not sell personal information or share it with anyone else, except when required by law.

6. Requests to other sites

• When you import a build link in Path of Building (pobb.in, poe.ninja, pastebin and others), the request passes through a relay on pob.poe.run to that site. The relay stores nothing and forwards no cookies.
• The streamer build pages show account and character information that poe.ninja and the official Path of Exile site publish. If you would like yours not to be shown, contact us.
• Links to other sites lead to pages under those sites’ own policies.

7. Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete a message you sent and the information that came with it, or to stop its processing. The contact form cannot identify you, so please tell us roughly when you sent it and what it said. Write to [email protected] and we will act on it without delay.

8. Children

The site is not directed at children under 14 and does not knowingly collect their information.

9. Changes

When this policy changes, we post the new text here and update the effective date. If we add an analytics tool such as Google Analytics, we will add it to this policy before using it and ask for consent where required.
