Introduction

SkyTools ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website skytools.app. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our service.

SkyTools is a free community toolkit for Hypixel SkyBlock players. We are not affiliated with Hypixel Inc., Mojang Studios, or Microsoft Corporation.

Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your email address and a hashed password. If you sign in with Google or Discord, we receive your name, email, and profile picture from the OAuth provider. We do not receive or store your Google or Discord password.

Subscription & Payment Data

Payments are processed by Polar. We never receive or store your credit card number, CVV, or full billing details. We only store your subscription status, plan tier, and billing period dates so we can grant you the correct features.

Minecraft Data

When you search for a player, we fetch publicly available data from the Hypixel API, including player UUIDs, profile stats, skills, inventories, and auction listings. This data is public and provided by Hypixel. We cache it temporarily (5 seconds to 15 minutes) to reduce API load.

Minecraft Account Linking (MC-ID)

You may optionally link your Minecraft account using MC-ID, a third-party OAuth provider. When you choose to link your account, MC-ID authenticates your Minecraft identity and shares your Minecraft username and UUID with SkyTools. We do not receive your Minecraft password or Microsoft account credentials. This data is stored in our database and associated with your SkyTools account. You can unlink your Minecraft account at any time from your Settings page, which removes the stored UUID and username.

Local Storage

SkyTools stores your preferences, favorites, price-watch history, portfolio entries, and calculator inputs in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not sent to our servers unless you explicitly use a feature that requires it.

Analytics

We use PostHog for product analytics. PostHog collects anonymized usage patterns, page views, and feature interactions to help us improve the service. No personally identifiable information is shared with PostHog beyond what is necessary for analytics.

How We Use Your Information

To provide and maintain the SkyTools service
To manage your account and subscription
To link and verify your Minecraft account identity via MC-ID when you choose to do so
To enforce feature limits based on your subscription tier
To cache Hypixel API data and reduce rate limiting
To improve the site based on aggregated, anonymous usage patterns

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

Data Retention

API usage logs: Retained for 30 days, visible in your developer dashboard. Automatically deleted after 30 days.
Account data: Retained for as long as your account is active. Upon account deletion, your data will be removed within 30 days.
Minecraft link data: Your Minecraft UUID and username are retained for as long as your account is linked. Unlinking removes this data immediately.
IP addresses: Used transiently for rate limiting and not stored beyond the duration of a session.
Cached game data: Hypixel API responses are cached for 5 seconds to 15 minutes and automatically expire.

Data Storage & Security

Account and subscription data is stored in Supabase (hosted on AWS). Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Row-level security ensures users can only access their own data.

Bazaar price history and market data is stored on our own infrastructure and is publicly accessible — it does not contain any personal information.

Cookies

SkyTools uses only essential cookies required for authentication (session tokens managed by Supabase Auth). We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking cookies.
