Privacy Policy

Why We Require Discord Sign-In

To keep our platform secure, trustworthy, and focused on real Twitch communities, all users must sign in with Discord.

Here's why this protects everyone:

• Stops bots & scrapers — Automated tools can't fake a real Discord account or scrape team listings, applications, or archives.
• Blocks bad actors — No anonymous spam, impersonation, or abuse. Only verified users can interact.
• Enables team-specific server access — Some teams require you to join their Discord server only when applying. We'll prompt you to join just that server, and only if the team requests it — never automatically, never for all teams.

Your control, your privacy:

• We only access basic profile info (username, ID, avatar).
• Server join requests are per-team and opt-in only.
• You can leave any server anytime — no obligation.

Why Twitch Login is Required to Apply for Teams

To submit an application to any Twitch team on our site, you must sign in with your Twitch account.

This isn't just a formality—here's exactly why it's essential:

• Verifies you're a real streamer — Bots, scrapers, and fake accounts can't apply. Only actual Twitch users with a channel can submit.
• Pulls accurate, up-to-date stats — Teams see your real follower count, average viewers, stream history, and category—directly from Twitch, no fakes or inflated numbers.
• Prevents impersonation — No one can apply as you. Your identity is tied to your official Twitch profile.
• Keeps applications fair & trustworthy — Teams review legit creators, not throwaways or duplicates.

What we access (and don't):

• Public profile (username, bio, avatar, stats)
• Channel analytics (followers, viewers, uptime)
• No chat, no whispers, no email, no private data

OAuth Scopes Explained

Discord Scopes

• identify — Required to log you in and show your username/avatar.
• guilds — Optional. Only requested if a team wants to verify server membership.
• guilds.join — Optional. Only used to add you to a team's Discord server with your permission.

Twitch Scopes

• user:read:email — Requested for future compatibility. We do not access, store, or use your email — ever.
• moderator:read:followers — Used only during application to fetch your follower count. We store only the number, not who follows you.

Claiming a Team

• The code is generated once and expires in 24 hours.
• It is removed from our system after successful claim.

Data Storage & Deletion

• Applications: Kept until approved, denied, or deleted by team owners.
• Notifications: Stored for 30 days, then auto-deleted.
