THANK YOU

This privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) describes how Tmpim LLC, operating as SwitchCraft 3 (“SwitchCraft,” “SC3,” “we,” or “us”) collects, uses and discloses personal information (“Personal Information”) about you when you visit any of the websites owned or operated by SwitchCraft (collectively, the “Sites”), connect to any of our Minecraft servers (collectively, the “Servers”), or when you otherwise interact with us.

Other websites and providers may follow different rules regarding the use or disclosure of the information you submit to them, such as third-party mods included installed on your client or provided by us in our modpack, or the platform you may use to communicate with us such as Discord. We encourage you to read the privacy policies or statements of other websites you visit before providing your information to them.

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make substantial changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of this Privacy Policy and adding a notice to the #announcements channel in our Discord server. If you use the Servers after any changes to the Privacy Policy have been posted, that means you agree to all the changes.
