Who we are

Terra Anvil (“we,” “us,” “our”) operates the website at terraanvil.net and related community features (events/RSVPs, accounts, email support).

What we collect & why

  • Account details: username, email, display name, and preferences — to create/manage your account and authenticate you.
  • RSVP / event submissions: name, email, and any fields you provide — to register you, send confirmations/updates, and manage capacity.
  • Emails you send us: messages to addresses like admin@terraanvil.net — to respond and support you.
  • Technical & security logs: IP address, user agent, pages/events, error logs — to secure the site, diagnose issues, and prevent abuse.
  • Cookies: essential login/session cookies and preferences. We do not use ad tracking. (If we add analytics or advertising in the future, this policy will be updated first.)

How we send email

We deliver email through our provider SMTP2GO. Outgoing mail (e.g., password resets, RSVP confirmations) routes via their infrastructure. Inbound mail to @terraanvil.net is handled on our own mail server. We do not sell your data.

Legal bases (EEA/UK users)

We process data under: contract (to provide the site/services you request), legitimate interests (security, abuse prevention, running the site), consent (when you opt into specific communications), and legal obligations.

Sharing

We share data only with service providers that help us run the site (e.g., hosting on our VPS provider, email delivery via SMTP2GO) under appropriate safeguards and agreements.

Data retention

  • Account data: kept while your account is active or until you request deletion.
  • RSVP records: typically 24 months for event administration and audits.
  • Server logs: typically 90 days unless needed for security investigations.
    (Backups may retain data for a limited additional period before being overwritten.)

Your rights

Where applicable, you may request access, correction, deletion, portability, or restriction/objection to processing. To exercise rights, email admin@terraanvil.net from the address associated with your account.

Children’s privacy

Our site is not directed to children under the age required by your local law (13 in the US; 16 in the EU). Do not submit personal data if you are under that age.

Security

We use TLS encryption, access controls, and server hardening. No system is perfectly secure; please use a strong, unique password and keep it private.

International transfers

Email delivery and hosting may involve transfers outside your country. We use reputable providers and take steps to protect your data.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. We’ll post the new effective date here.
